VETERANS TO COMPOSE TIGER
 TEAM THIS YEAR.

TTNHE Detroit team may open the 1916 playing season with veteran lineup. It is quite generally conceded tbat- there are only two positions to be fought far-name1y, right field and first base Crawford slowed up noticeably in his fielding last year, although he hit well in streaks, and Burns, the regular first baseman, did not recover completely from an operation for ap- pendicitis during the training season.
 The odds are in favor of the vet erans' retaining their positions, how ever, as it is felt that Harry Heilman is the only youngster who can replace either. Incidentally Heilrnan, who hit more than 300 with San Francisco last year. has played right field and first base.

Foot FauIting an Evil In Tennis Events

EOR five years the question of foot
 fauIting has received well war ranted publicity. It is a phase of ten his to which much thought has been devoted with the idea of suggesting a. possible remedy. and yet the evil still exists to a woeful extent. During the. progress fof tournaments throughout the country one is constantly con Hronted by the lack of caution in this regard by those who profess to be , authorities. &s N
 In important matches 1t frequently happens that the outcome rests upon the judges idea of what constitutes foot fault Not that the ruling is am biguous in It's phraseology, but rather because foot fault judges vary in their opinion as to whether certain players do or do not habitualIy violate the law.
 At Forest Hills. N. r., last Septembe~ foot fau1ting was so prevalent that the subject became cause of great an noyance to the committees in charge of the national championship. The ruling is expressed clearly. Nobody with the slightest degree of intelligence could r1aisfnterpret the meaning. Briefly, it demands that a player must keep one foot firmly implanted on the ground behind the base line and that neither foot shall cross the service line before the ball is hit
 The present day revolution in the style of service is responsible for 1t all. This was ushered in by the Califor-i nians in 1909, when the highly special ized twist services were first intro auced.
 The object of the twist service is to permit of close cover of-the net posi-. tfon. with the likelihood of an easy kill of a weak return from an opponent un- able to successfully manipulate the promoted sbreak.'
 The reason for the conflicting opin- ions as to a players foot faulting pro penalties is due chiefly to the inability of the eye of the judge to watch with certainty three or four things at the same time. The man with the twist service has his left foot close to the Hue. This must sbe watched closely to see that it does not rransgress in the act of serving.
 Next, the right foot must be kept in view to see that it does not cross the line until after the contact of the ball and she racket. Finally, the sphere and the moving racket head must come into the vision of the foot fault judge at the time of serving, so that he can be assured that the contact was made before the body of the player crossed the line.
 Watching so many things at the same time, a man can hardly be expected to render decision. which meets with the approval of all those watching be- hind And this is the reason that a foot fault judge is frequently severely aza2anleed- aither for his laxity in call

DOES TENNIS STROKE
 HARM GOLFERS SWING?

TNHE fact that Maurice B. McLough-
 lin and William M. Johnston, na- honaI tennis experts, have taken up golf lends interest to the often heard theory that tennis playing tends to hurt a golfers game by making the right hand too prominent in the exc cution of the long shots with disas- trous results.
 Follows Tennis With Golf.
 Miss Elinor Gates, the Long Island golfer. whc figured so conspicuously in the recent Women's golf tournament at Pinehurst, followed up her golf tourna- ment work by entering the tennis championship. According to some golf theorists, this work on the courts will injure her links game and may prevent her from taking the rank in the spring district that perhaps she might other wise attain. . Theory May Get JoIt-
 If the California "comet'' and the ten- his champion develop into as high class wielders of the driver and cleek as they are handlers of the racket, they will give the theory about +too much right hand a jolt. A Ncrg good golfer has been developed out< of William A. Lar ned, for many years the leading light in Americanf tennis Raymond D. Little, long among the tennis topnotchers, has not been so successful in his efforts to master the game with the little white ball. He has not yet "got going on the links. In the Piping Rock tourney in 1914 Little reached the final-of the beaten eight of the fifth sixteen.
 Mclaughlin an Example.
 It will be interesting to watch Mc- Laughlin's development on the links and observe whether he can amount to anything as a player without changing the faults now noticeable in his style.

ing faults or for his strict adhering to the ruling.
 The foot fault rule was originated through the desire of the tennis execu- tives to minimize the already great advantage the server has over the re- ceiver. A server, if allowed to follow his delivery to the net regardless of a violation of foot fault principles, would seldom drop his service The advantage of strong net position is well known to the tournament player.
 A foot fault is a violation of a rule and should command rigid punishment! The man who foot faults knowingly is just as culpabIe as5the man who calls a ball of his opponent out when he secretly knows it hit within bounds.
 Unless a ruling is draw2 up by the national association which will tend to keep a player back from the base line, there will continue to be many fragrant violations of the present law A pos sib1e solution for their elimination by the framing of new act was suggest ed by the style of the late Anthony F. Wilding in action during his Ssojourp in this country, while competing with the Australasian team for possession of the Davis cup.
 While serving, the great New Zea- lander stood at least a foot behind the base line. thus allowing him ample room for the swing of his right foot before it reached the court A player like Williams would not have to stand back so far, because he hits the serv- ice ball behind his head. But if standard line or lines could be drawn behind the base line for the server to gauge the distance which his right foot must pass over before violating the principle it might afford a possible so- ;lution for the prevention of the evil MORAN ONCE FOUGHT FOR $2.5o.

 This is in sharp contrast to some of the sspurses" for, which Moran battled in the past. A number of Pittsburghers were discussing Franks pugilistic rise recently One of them recalled bout in which Frank took part at the Bed ford skating rink in Pittsburgh about ten years ago, when Martin Burk was conducting that place.

.BROTHERHOODS FIXED
FOR EMERGENCIES
If Strike Comes S15,OOO,OOO Fund
VIII Provide Relief for Trainmen-
No Violence at Time of Quitting
(B. l. GROAT.)

WASHINGTON, Aug. 29.-The rail-
road Brotherhoods have a fifteen mil
lion dollar strike fund ready for dis
tribution among the four unions
should the men need strike relief
They plan to pay forty dollars month
ly to the four hundred thousand men
involved. Many leaders believe the
trainmen would not need relief.
The fund has been gathered through
weekly contributions for years. The
assessment varies in accordance with
the members earning capacity.
One little code wired from Wash
ington to every railroad center is suf-
ficient to precipitate the strike. If
the strike comes, every train will i'm
mediately be run to the nearest juno
ton, the fires banked and the en-
gines oiled, for the strikers will de-
liver the engines and cars to the COM
panies in perfect condition. Every
union man will quit properly, avoid
ing violence and trespass. Only
twenty four big BrotherhOoders re-
mained in Washington today. They
believe the strike only few days off.

RIKKI Tiki TAVI.

Rikki is a plain mungoose. HIS old name
was 'icbneumon," which did, at any rate,
possess the advantage Of indicating some
thing Of our little friends character, for
'icbneumon" comes from a Greek word
which means to track out. And 80 because
Rikki is such q splendid tracker out, natural
lists long called him an ichnenmon, a name
now transferred to those excellent flies TINT
track out harmful insects and destroy them.
But Mr.. Kipfing has given him the nnme oil
children love, and r XXI Tiki Tuvi he will
remain for most of US.
49,. Rikki belongs to the great civet
tribe, and the civets are more related to the
eat on the one hand, aud to the byena on
the other than to the weasels. The story of
the relationship is long and difficult, but full
of fascinating interest to those who try to
follow it out. Here we will follow Rikki
himself, and leave his family history for an.
other day.
To follow him literally would be difficult.
In the British Empire he is a sort of semi
dollhouse guest, until we get to Africa and
India. There, especially in India, he is one
of a great and numerous family, though
happily not too numerous. He may be trac-
ed in the hedge rows, in the gardens, in h6l.
low trees. in clefts of rocks, in just the sort
of place where we might seek weasels in
weasel country at home.
