Such Being the Ways of Fame.
 Shakespeare must have been think ing of Grover Alexander when he wrote, in effect: "The evid that men do lives after them; the good is oft inferred with their dust"
 Not very many men of the Fan Colony today care to remember that Alexander through the season won 32 games out of 43 starts. They only remember that when picked to win a world series alone he was stopped short after one victory and rolled back into oblivion. It is only the last move you made that leaves any distinct inn pression upon the Tickle memory of fandom or sportdom. The rest of it doesn't belong.

who finally got his right to work and landed three blows in succession with such force that Coffey was groggy as he staggered to his corner at the sound of the bell.
 Coffey was not so cocky as the third round opened, and Moran, with head down, parried his blows, and finally became the aggressor. The pair had been lighting one minute and thirty eight seconds when Moran landed a right on Coffey's jaw and toppled him over as if he had been struck with sledgehammer. This knockout blow followed one that was vicious but not so effective, though it had dazed Coffey and made the little box ing he did after that almost ludicrous. Coffey landed on the mat like a bull hit in slaughterhouse, going down head first. He struggled painfully to

 In the second round Coffey again started out as if he intended to do things to his opponent. He mussed around @ bit and managed to get in his right and left on Morans face a couple of times. Moran was slow and in no hurry to do more than slam Coffey in the wind three or four times viciously until the round was about half over- Then Moran suddenly came to life and battered Coffey about as he liked, with Coffey just failing to make his well-intended leads land where they would do any damage. In one of the mix-ups Moran got a slight cut under his left eye, right on the Cheekbone, the result of one of Cof- fey's left jabs. It failed to jar or materially disturb the Pittsburgh lad,

The Baseball Face.

Professor Herbert Bayard Swope has just fallen upon a discovery that should be of more than passing inter- est to any students of the human race While looking back through the files at baseball photographs of oldtime stars-those who had seen long years Of service such as McGraw, Latham, McGuire and others-it suddenly struck MT. Swope that a certain pro- nounced likeness was discernable.
 This likeness came from certain squint, an established wrinkle around the eyes-the look that comes through long seasons of eternally watching the flight of baseball through the wind and son. So the Baseball face" takes its place with the Bicycle hump" and the "Caulif1ower ear" For un- doubtedly there are those who have spent the major part of their lives with eyes focused intently upon long fly, a fast curve or a rapid bounder, producing an effect that is not to be mistaken.

LADY CHAMPION WILL
feature Big tourney
Mrs. Roy Booth to Give Exhibition in
Tenpins at International Bowl
ing Meet in Boston.

Boston. April 3.-One Of the most inter-
esting features of the international
bowling tournament that will be staged
at Mechanics Building from April % to
May Is will be the competition of the
ladies for the handsome trophies offered
for all the different style games
Mrs. Roy Booth has been recognized
as the worlds champion at the big pin
game for the past four years, and has
consented to roll exhibition games during
the tournament with ladies that will rep
resent some of the leading cities of the
East.
The unique part of Mrs. Booths bowl
Ing Is that she bowls regulation size
ball. and has the same
delivery and speed as that Of the men
champions. She is a slight. frail woman
weighing 11S pounds and bowls with such
ease that she is nationally known as the
most remarkable lady in the game.
In practice at one Of the local alleys
last week she hung UP high score of 23S
with an average of 1893 for six games,
one of the leading men ten
pin bowlers.
A large gathering OF Boston's leading
society and club women have signified
their intention of attending the opening
night of the tournament. at which Mrs.
Booth will be seen the first time In this
city In a special match against one of
the PROMINENT men bowlers.

rowing INJURIOUS?
NO! SAY WESTERNERS
Wisconsin Alumni Declare Faculty
Has Not Ruled Fairly in
Abolishing Sport.

As a result of the abolition of inter-
collegiate rowing at the University OF
Wisconsin on account of physical in
juries received froms participation in
the sport" the athletic committee of
the Alumni Association has just COM
pleted a thorough investigation of the
situation and has come to the conclu-
sion that rowing does not result as the
faculty stated in its explanation for
abolishing the sport last autumn.
A report of the findings Of the COM
mittee of which Walter Alexander. of
the Wisconsin Railroad Commission.
and q former varsity oarsman. is chair
man, and on which are Louis D. Sum-
mer, of Madison: Lynn Williams. Of
Chicago. and Nelson Falk. of Lake
Mills, will be turned over to the pres
ident of the association within the
next two weeks, when it is entirely
completed.
First. All crew men have been pro-
nounced by the university medical
faculty to be physically fit for par
ticipation in all forms of intercollegi-
ate sports.
Second. Information received from
former Wisconsin oarsmen is that no
after effects have been experienced by
them as a result of their participa-
ton.
Third. reports ana statlstlcS from
medical advisers and athletic directors
without exception contradict the ac-
ton taken by the University of Wis
consin.
Fourth No consideration having
been given to the beneficial effect. we
feel that both sides of the question
have not been fairly represented.
Fifth. If rowing is now to be
dropped and later resumed. as has
been suggested by the athletic direc-
tor. we feel that this will result in
setting back of this sport for at least
ten years.
Sixth. The time will soon be at
hand when many of the Middle West
colleges will be supporting crews. pre-
liminary steps having been taken in
that direction.
Seventh. The natural facilities at
Wisconsin are particularly adapted for
this kind of sport.
Eighth. This is acknowledged to be
the cleanest form of intercollegiate
sport and results in the most whole
some advertising for the university.
Ninth. So long as ample funds are
available for maintaining this sport
the expense should not be considered.

GERMANS TO CON.--IUE RACES.
Sport This Year, However, to Serve
Serious Purpose.

London. April s.-The question Of the continua-

extent upon permission to increase in the case
OF race horses the fixed ration Of cats. 1t has
been decided to increase the ration for
thoruushbreds from three pounds to ten pounds.
Flat races are to take place at the Hopper

it Is also intended to run the German Derby at
Hamburg. An inspired note the subject adds:
The races this year viii serve the serious and
important purposes Of German horse breeding but
not amusement Of the public. In this sense de-
eision Of German owners is greatly to be VOL
coined"
