sian was able to put up such a strong
front in our first battle and yet seemed
so inferior to me in our) match at
Comiskey baseball park.
THE answer to this is simple
had been told of the wonderful
strength of the Russian Lion. was
told that he would tear me limb from
limb. l was coached to play careful
game. l was sure l could stand Hack
enschmidt off and retain the strength
to defeat him. / was disillusioned in
that match and since that time | have
gone after all those Europeans to de-
feat them as quickly as possible. The
defeats of Mahmout, Zbyszko and
Raicevitch are examples.
It confess that / tore into Hacken-
schmidt in our second meeting in hard
er fashion than l ever ripped into an
opponent in my career. His mis-
statements of facts concerning our
first match, his treatment of our party
when we toured England and his mis-
representations in America only
served to make me wish to humiliate
him the more I didn't want him to
have a leg to stand on. This talk
about his having a bad knee is only an
alibi at the most. 1t was l who had
a bad knee. Hackenschmidt was in
jured in the heart. When he saw that
he was a goner, he begged for mercy,
and that showed his true colors."

NAMING THE NEW DEFENDER
Whatever Yacht May Be Called Rests
Entirely With Owners or Syndi-
cates-Good Suggestions.

Now that series of races for the
Americas cup are assured for 1914 and
work is under way on at least one de-
fender, the problem Of naming the
yacht which will represent this coun-
try in the international event arises.
Sir Thomas ]. Upton has chung
tenaciously to the name Shamrock
with numerals added, and this coun-
try's craft have had political and his
torical names, including the Puritan,
the Mayflower and the Columbia, as
we'll as such other characteristic
names as the Volunteer, the Vigilant
and the Reliance, not to mention some
of the earlier defenders, the Sappho,
the Madeline, the Mischief, the Ameri-
ca and the original Columbia.
While the question of name for
each of such defenders as may be
built rests entirely with the individual
owners or syndicates, the suggestion
Of name or names for the American
vessels built for the honor of uphold
ing American supremacy on the high
seas is one which will soon attract the
attention of the yachting fraternity.
There are many American Indian
names particularly suitable to be ap-
piled to Americas cup defenders, and
there are other branches in the sphere
of yacht nomenclature which may be
drawn upon.
The first requisites are that the
names suggested be easily pronounce
able and not too long.
Interest in the new yachts that may
be built for the honor of defending
the Americas cup is not limited to
the comparative few who will sub
scribe toward their construction and
maintenance, but in reality they will
become national institutions, and this
will cause all who are in any way
interested in the sport to at least con-
tribute a suggestion for a suitable
name for the defender

After Olympic Talent.

The British Olympic council has de-
cided to award standard badges, with

year, reaching the required standard
of merit. The awards, which will be
known as the British Olympic profici-
ency badges and diplomas, may be
competed for only by British anna
tours as defined by each of the gov
erning associations concerned.
These bodies have drawn up stand
ards for candidates from seventeen to
twenty years of age in athletics, box
ing, cycling, fencing, shooting, swim
ming, wrestling and gymnastics. They
have also undertaken the supervision
and checking of performances, and
will endeavor to help the competitors
to obtain proper facilities for coach
ing.
