The one tribes which will probably be heard from in the near future sath- .IeticaIly are Ignrrotes These swarlike people, whose reputation is. however. Of more crimson hue than the, facts warrant, have taken to sport with as much enthusiasm as they went after neighbors' topknots in the past
 < The Igorrotes are splendidly develop ed physically, and among them the .Bontocs and the KaIingas hold the palm. In the Bontoc meet last spring fifteen KaIinga boys came down from the Lubuagan Industrial school and fourteen came from uocano. represent ing the Cervantes district. The young hopefals from zLubuagan walked the eighty ki1oneters to the meet in day and half. They walked the entire distance from Cervante7 fifty eight kilonneters.
 From this might be deducted. that the Filipinos could be relied on in distance events, but up to date the marks in the long distances have been nothing out of the ordinary. They seem to be bet ter in sprints. Where it requires stam- ina and strength the native is still far behind. The reason for this is given by physical directors and experts as lack of proper nutriment- The Island CTS subsfst mostly on a vegetable diet, and, although this might be a blow at the vegetarian theory. it is given as a fact that those who are not meat eat CTS have made the poorest showing in athletic meets.
 The native boxer is a case in point. There is no question about his shifti- ness and general speed in the ring, but when he receives blow in the ston- ach's he usually is fnfshed. That has been the observation of Harold Mo Neal, sporting editor of. the Manila Bulletin, whp has refereed many matches in Manila. It is this defect before he can hope to compete on even terms with the more sturdy white man e a Girl Athletes Also.
 With the increase Of schools every where in the islands many physical ailments are fast disappearing. At best the Filipinos could not be called ener- getic. but they are gradually acquiring the habit of work Superintendent " c. Willis found when he took charge of the school at Zambales that many of the girl pupils were continually ab- senting themselves from school, giving as excuses headaches and other slight ailments
 The first thing he did was to organ ize girls basketball team. The head aches became fewer, the absence less, and in a year the girls who took part in athletic exercises were not only the healthiest in the school, but far out classed the others mentally as we'll
 The school are making. tremendous strides nsthis direction, and it may be reasonably expected that in a short time a. race will be developed which will fit into a scheme of self govern ment. mentally and physically.

the horses owned or controlled by these men are tod good for anything but the grand circuit; hence they will be on hand for the coming season.
 The new rules and regulations are. not so much rules and Regulations as they are the evp1utton Of ideas For
 many years the big prizes on the grand circuit went to horses without replffa-s ztlon Tn the parlance Of the trotting turf they were "green'' horses, by. which is meant horses that had never. done much in the way of racing
 This year Cleveland took tne lead in its stake offering by providing one of it's best classes for horses, eligible to the 2:09 class Then it went far in ad- vance of all other tracks and provided an equally good offering for horses that had never wona heat faster than z: :1344 in a race. The object. of that offering was to give such horses the chance to race for 8 good stake without having

such games and track athletics than he is for thes field events. But even here the records are above the ordi- nary. Thus Llandan, a Visayan, from twelve pound shot 45 feet 117h inches This stands as the interscholastic rec. ord Of the islands. As interschoIastic records are the only ones at present recognized. they are the only ones ta- ken into consideration.
 The hammer throw and the discus are not allowed in native athletic meets as yet. The native has not been able to overcome that innate curiosity, and he often encroaches upon the players regardless of the danger in volved
 The pole vault has been we'll mas tered. and the record now stands at 10 feet A inches. This is held by Abad. a Bicol5 from Albay province. The rest of tie records to date are:
 50 yard dash, 5 3-5 seconds; 100 yard dash, 10 2-5 seconds: 22o yard dash, 23 seconds; 40 yard run; 54 4-5 seconds; Ss0 yard run. BIB 2-5: 22o yard low hurdles, 2S seconds; running broad jump, 20 feet 21S inches; running high jump, 5 feet S5z inches; Ss0 yard relay race :41; I mile relay, 8: 45.
 Of the record holders i've come from Cebu. three from Albay. two from Ii-' cos Norte and one each from Occi- dental Negros and Bohol.
 The Cebu native seems to take best to athletics Of all kinds. He is good both in field and track events and physically is at present slightly supe- rior to the majority Of other tribes. The Cebu baseball team won the, inter scholastic championship for the last three years. including 1913. In the an-. nuaI interscholastic meet of 1913 Cebu won. with three points to spare, from Occidental Negros.
 Have Own Olympic Meet.
 There has been some talk of enter ing Filipino track team in the next Olympic games, but this is hardly likely, as there would have to be tre- mendous improvement in all branches to make any showing at all As a matter of fact, there is really no ex- Olympic for many years. as they have an Olympic meet of their own in the orient.
 The firstso these olynpics was held at Manila in February 1e13 Japan and China entered. and the results showed the Filipinos victors2. by 137 points to AZ for China and Il for Ja- pan. Being marvellous swimmers by nature and training, the little brown men from the islands practically made a. clean sweep of the events. As show ing the interest in the games it is to be noted that twice as many competi- tors took part in the games as at the Olympic at Stockholm.

ing the race for the CastIeton cup for free for all trotters. the first time in tile history of trottif1g that a fixture was offered for horses Of that class WALTER JOHNSON TO DEFEND
 ON HIS SPEED TO WIN. WALTER JOHNSON has changed
 his style of pitching since lasf season. He no longer relies principally upon his curve ball to deceive the batsman, but is again using his won derfuI speed to hold opposing teams tn check.
 Only occasionally nowadays does he resort to a hook. and then only for the purpose of conyincfng the batsnau that he also is endowed with this de- livery. With the abandoning of the curve the full measure of the great pitchers speed, which made him ia nous, seems to have returned to h5Tns and he can now display as much ve- Ioeity with a ball as he ever could

 1hesreason for making the above as-. sertton s thae the stake entries clear tlzfoalgh the circuit have indicated that there Is a more widespread interest in the trotter and the pacer than has been. shpFTn for some time.

Coombs Says Golf IS Good For Ball
 Players

CT CANNOT agree with these men
 who say golf is bad for a bal player" says Jack Coonbs. sIt helps him more than an ordinary man real izes.s One of the greatest assets Of the game is absolute control of oneself, iu which confidence plays an important part, Thus. the mind being under com troI. one thinks not Of the Importance resting upon him. There only is one thoug ht-succeed
 ..It is true the swing in golf Is far different from that used in basebau. There are few ball players, however. who do not bring that stroke or their profession into golf. If you will look back to the games I pitched for the Athletics on Mondays you will notice from the box scores that my batting was far superior to that on other days. I played golf every Sunday rain or shine and as often said to the boys That ball looked as big as 9 pumpkin Whether golf playing the day before had anything to do with 1t or not dare not say. Being a bug on golf my own opinion is formed.
 Associations on the golf links are far different from those formed h other walks of life
 During the worlds series of 1910. MT. Plank, Eds father, came from Gettysburg to see the games He lived with US during his visit. The after noon before the first game against the Cubs Bender, Ed and I played golf -Ue came home, went to bed early and i'd not wake up until 8; 30 the next morn ing. Upon arising I asked MT. Plank how he had enjoyed his rest.
 s' Never slept a wink he replied Been up since 4:3O o'clock Walked all over Fairmount park. Was too nervous to sleep. How couIo you aaa Ed snore so when the series begins today
 "I had mot given the importance Of the baseball game a thought. T was thinking when I went to sleep how easily Ed and I could have beaten Ben der at golf had we played with a- little more confdence.''

country. Its findings are being given
from time to time and meeting with
much public enthusiasm here
Probably the Springfield survey ex-
presses more comprehensiYely the
ideals. aims and methods Of the Rus
sell Sage Foundation than any other
example Of its activities. Although
;he foundation has received requests
from $50 American cities to conduct
similar self-analyses, the whole force
Of the foundation was put into motion
here. For weeks minute, exhaustive
and detailed examination Of the whole
civic activities OF the city was under
taken by large corps Of expertly
trained research workers, aided by vol
unteer auxiliary corps comprised OF
the best and widely representative
citIzenry Of Springfield. The founda-
tion especially picked Springfield be
cause 1t is typically representative Of
the hundreds OF cities Of similar size
which have the same conditions, gem
orally, to meet and be solved. TIE
findings. therefore, of the foundation
are regarded as models" for guidance
Of other cities and are already recog
nlzed as such. judging from the de-
mand for the official reports Of the
oundation regarding the results Of
The survey here.
The following fields Of social actly.
ty we're chosen for investigation:
Public schools, industry and labor con
ditions. municipal and county admin
stratIon and efficiency, public health
and sanitation, recreation, housing.
charities and social agencies, delin-
1uency and correctional systems, and
cure Of mental detectives, ale, Jlics
and insane.
The philanthropic organization, re-
sulting from the beheficence OF Rus

and his wife, was thrown with It's
whole force into the survey. But
commendable feature was the Local
cooperation. financial and active, OF
