book with Information concerning
them is kept, but It is not necessary
for Mr.. and Mrs. Stephens TO refer
to this book to explain about their
baskets. They know each and every

how they happened to get It. They

Feared. Tho water Is supposed to
possess marvellous healing power.
On the mantel Of the home is a

vases make up the number. Across

Athletics Sign Up;
Only One Hold-out;
No Need to Worry

PHILADELPHIA, Jan. 81. Federal
Leagues can come and go, but there
is no worry at Shibe Park over the
activity of the new organization. No
less than twenty-seven Mackmen, both
old and young. have stuck their names
to 1914 bits of parchment bearing the
Athletic Club seal and are eagerly
waiting for the bell which will take
them to. Jackksonville, Fla, for the
usual Spring workout
Manager Mack yesterday handed
out the following men who have
signed
Catchers - Schang. Lapp, Sturgis,
McAvoy.
Pitchers-Bush, Pennock. Wyckoff,
Houck, Brown. Shawkey, Graves,
Bohen. O. Baker, Van de Veer. Bender.
Inf1elders - Barry. McInnis, Orr,
Cruthers. Collins, Baker.
Outfielders +. Murphy, Daley,
Strunk. Oldring. Thompson, Brickley.
The above list does not include the
names of Eddie Plank, Danny Murphy,
Harry Davis and Ira Thomas. There
is little doubt as to the former being
with the club again. Plank rarely
signs his contract in the dead of win
ter, invariably bringing it on with him
when he reports for the trip south.
Both Davis and Murphy have no cause
TO hold out. but it is said that the
contract rendered Thomas does not
suit him, and he is probably the only
hold-out on the club. That he will be
in line, however. before the team de-
parts for balmy Florida there is little
doubt.

New York, Jan. 21.-Some aston
ishing figures, showing the widespread
popularity of intercollegiate football
during the season of 1918, have been
compiled by Parke Davis, Princeton S
member of the rules committee. Ac-
cording to his estimates. computed
from personally collected data, 400
colleges and 5000 schools throughout
the country were represented by
elevens last autumn. Approximately
43.20O games were played and 10000
players participated in the contests
and practice. Placing the average at
tendance at these games as low as 800,
the total attendance would not be far
from thirteen million.
The longest goal from the field was
a place kick of 90 yards scored by
Carl Woodward, of Tulane University,
against st. Louis University. The sec

ond longest goal was also a place
KICK, 40 yards, achieved by j. J. Dunn,
of Baltimore City College, against Gil
man School. The honor of the longest
drop kick scoring goal goes to a
schoolboy, James M. Porter, of Nc
kenzie School, who in a game against
Hackley School sent the ball spinning
over the bar 40 yards distant. The
longest goal from a drop kick by a
college player in 1913 was the AZ
yard goal by II. A. H. Baker, of
Princeton, against Yale.
The record for the greatest number
of field goals by single player in one
game goes to Charles E. Brickley, of
Harvard, who scored five against Yale.
One of the surprising features of
1913 was the frequency Of long runs
from kickoff. Hitherto they have
been so rare that seldom more than
one has appeared throughout season.
