Program Of Sporting Events for Year
Seems Rather Flat Compared
With Last Season.

Compared with the prospects OF a
year ago the program OF sporting
events for the coming year seems
rather fat and tame. There will be
no Davis Cup tennis. no information.
al polo. little international golf, no
return OF the Harvard university crew
to defend the laurels won In English
rowing. and there is little prospect Of
a race for the Americas Cup.
II is true that a sudden cessation
OF hostiiities would make possible the
resumption Of Sir Thomas Lipton's
campaign on comparatively short no.
tice. and that the National Lawn Ten.
mis- association has taken the prelim.
mary steps necessary 10 insure its
right 10 challenge In case the war sud.
denly ceases; but there Is little pros
pect that II will cease.
The high lights OF the 1914 athletic
season emphasized such spectacular
happenings on the international hori.
zon as Ouimet's visit to France and
England. Lord Wimborne's spectacu.
lar polo campaign. and the gathering
OF the tennis cracks OF all nations TO
play In the L. s. which will not be
repeated for many q day. Never.
the!ess. there is every reason TO ex.
pect a year OF development in active
outdoor life. the greatest which has
been recorded in this country.

MENTAL STRAIN IN BASEBALL
censiaG able Nerve Required TO Face
Pitcher With Fast Ball, Says
Former VARSITY Guard.

A group OF former varsity football
players were arguing the interesting
point as to which requires more nerve
on the part OF participants, football or
baseball? One would think there
would not be a dissenting voice to the
opinion that the grid!ron sport re.
qu!res far more nerve. Yet there were
several who strenuously debated this
contention. holding that the mental
strain was greater upon the man who
plays baseball.
Il played varsity baseball and varsity
football" said one man OF the group,
and ] want TO tell you that the only
time | ever felt inward m was
when ! stood at the plate facing n
pitcher who had a fast ball. There Is
something about the situation-or al.
ways was TO me-which made me feel
my helplessness. made me feel at the
mercy OF the pitcher, or rather at the
mercy OF his possible bad aim. In foot
ball you were fighting against one man,
and he had nothing to throw at you"
Il feel the same way" chimed in a
former varsity guard. when ! came
from prep school | had a reputation
as n pitcher, but I level tried for the
team because I hadn't the nerve 10
face the shoots OF varsity pitchers"
The curious thing Is that this man was
in his day one OF the most daring and
resourceful backs playing the game.

STANLEY GAINS
40 In THE COUNT
Has Indicated Lead of 1856 and
Could Lose All Contests
and Still Win.

Louisville, KY. Nov. 10.-Unim-
plrtant changes were recorded yes
terday in the tabulation of offic al
returns from last Tuesdays election
for governor of Kentucky. In one
precinct the vote was recGunted; in
another a substituted certification
righted a clerical error. Each added
nineteen votes to the total unofficial
SHORTY of A. o. Stanley, democrat,
and gave him an indicated lead of
1856 over Edwin P. Morrow, republi-
can.
Official returns were lacking only
from Laurel county, where party
leaders practically have agreed upon
a Morrow majority.
Messages from Frankfort, the
state capital, indicated that tabula.
ton of the vote in ninety.three coun-
ties, official certifcations Of which
were in possession Of the secretary 81
state, showed a Stanley gain Of forty
over the figures ftesn the same coun-
ties used in compiling SANKEY'S I'M
official majority. With this show
ing tabulation of the returns prac-
ideally was discontinued here, even
though minor contests in three scat
tered precincts yet were to be de-
cided. In these contests it was stat
ed that fewer votes than Stanley's
unofficial majority were at issue.

many large buildings have been put

been just as many houses erected
and the aggregate of buildings runs
up to 100000 or whereabouts.
We print a list of some of the per.

list does not include all of the new
houses. The elegant home of Mr..

not been included. All told the
