WILL HUSTLE WORK
Coach Nickalls Has Two Weeks in Which to Build Up His Oarsmcn for Cornell and Tigers.

New Haven, April 2S.--Writing of the plans of the Yale varsity oars men, Coach Guy Nicllalls says in the Yale Alumni Weekly: "Our next race for the varsity is a twO-mile one against Cornell and Princeton, shade longer than that of last Saturday, and our next race for the second varsity is May 3 on the Schuyll<ill over one mile and $50 yards, a shade shorter; so we have two weeks to turn the second crew into real sprinters and a month to drive the varsity sufficient ly to accumulate pace for a two-mle drive, and at the same time develop a fOur-mile crew for competition against Harvard. Given calm water, we think this is not an impossibility, as the men can stand plenty of work"

N. IL. Batting.
 Larry Doyle led the National league last season with a mark of .320. Jake Daubert led the year be- fore with .329 The player who can arrange an average of 1920 for the present year is likely to lead again, for National league pitching is the best that circuit has known for many years.
 There is hardly a weaek staff in the circuit. Boston, Philadelphia and Brooklyn all have the talent and the genius from which to gather at least four fine slabmen.
 Cincinnati has Dale, Schneider, Toney and McKenery. Pittsburg has at least three stars in Mamaux, Kantlehner and Adams New York and Chicago have pitching poss bilities, but their 1916 worth is not yet proved.

Pitching Shifts.

Pitching is a varied art, at best, or worst. Three years ago Claude Hen dirk and Tom Seaton were rated among the stars of the game. At that time Long George Mcconnell had come up and gone down for the second time. No one figured him for a return. Last season the Cubs gave him another chance, but cut him adrift, and two weeks later he was starring with the Feds
 Now, while Seaton and Hendrix are uncertainties, Mcconnell has offered the best pitching of the season, and is evidently on the way to a winning campaign

Richard HObIitZelI.

Ten years ago around Parkersburg. w. Va, Hurry-up Yost,, tthe football mentor, saw kid ball player that looked pretty good to his seasoned eye. This player was only seventeen years old but Yost tipped him off to Barney Dreyfuss Barney forgot about it, and the next season Richard c. Hoblitzell, went to first basing for Cincinnati.
 Among the games leading first baseman you don't hear so much about Hoblitzell, but he isn't far away from the top. What is even more unusual is the belief that Hobby is regarded as a waning veteran, whereas he is only twenty-seven years old. The illusion is the result of his long period of service. for he has been in the major fold with Red land and Red SoXland for nine cam paigns.
 Also in these nine campaigns he has only batted under .280 once in addition to performing a very credit able job around the Old Bag. Just at present Barry and Hobby give the Red Sox one of the strongest right infield wings in either league.

We favor the immediate repeal of the
Federal Reserve Act and the substitu-
ton OF a central bank controlled by
Standard Oil.
We demand prompt removal OF the
income tax from the statute books and
the restoration of system of taxation
which relieves the rich Of, and places
upon the poor, the heavy cost Of gov
eminent.
We insist upon early elimination of
the Federal Trade Commission, so that
the great trusts may resume the prac-
tice OF unfair and cut-throat competition
without let or bindrance.
We hereby declare for the enactment
OF drastic law prohibiting any public
mention OF the great measures for the
development OF agriculture, of commerce
and industry put in force under Demo
cratic administration, because discussion
OF these matters tends TO make votes for
Woodrow Wilson.
We point with sorrow and sinking
Of the United States and we hereby SOL
EMMY swear that not one nickel OF it is
attributable TO Democratic administra-
ton, but that our good fortune is en-
tirelY and wholly due to the eclipse Of
the moon last July, or something like
that.
We urge immediate annexation of the
Hearst ranch.
We hereby assert that the Wilson adj
ministration has failed to assert the
American position with adequate vigor
in the negotiations with Germany over
the submarine issue.
We hereby assure the German vote
that the Wilson administration has been
entirely too aggressive and persistent in
it's dealings with the Kaiser.
We love ourselves more than our
neighbors and propose TO do unto the
common people just as Mark Hanna did
unto them, only more so, etc.
