Sad Story of a Sacrifice
That Never Appeared in
Alma Matters Box Score

Sentiment goes home with the best of
us and Robert w. Tiny Maxwell, sport
ing editor of the Public Ledger. Of PhIla-
sentiment on the Maryland state-st
Johns game which he refereed last
Saturday:
Philadelphia, Pa, Nov. 6.-College spirit
is a wonderful thing. Every so often we
read Of the sacrifices made by students
the story of the football player who was
injured in a game. and as he was being
carried on the field on a shutter he
weakly called for a cigarette. When told
that he was in no condition to do any
smoking, heroic smile spread over the
players face as he gasped:
Il don't care what becomes Of me. I'd
die for dear old Rutgers
This old yarn of college loyalty was
relegated to the discard last Saturday
morning, when eighteen students from
Maryland State College appeared in An
napolis to attend the football game be-
tween their college and st. Johns. 1t
is not at all unusual for college students
to travel long distances to see their
team in action. but it's a safe bet that
no gang of rah-rahs ever equaled the
STUNT puieQ Dy Ine IalInIul elknIeen.
List to the narrowing tale:
Maryland State College is situated in
College Park. just eight miles outside Of
Washington. A good football team rep
resents the school and when the time
came for the eleven and the rooters to
leave on the train for Annapolis to play
st. Johns College. the faithful eighteen.
who were loyal but impecunious, held q
meeting to decide on what was best to
do. They knew that they Just HAD to
see that football game, but how were
they to see 1t?
The spokesman then arose to his feet
and said:
Fellows. We are going to see that
football game tomorrow. We must see
that game, and that's all there Is to it.
We can't ride on railroad trains because
our credit Is no good, SO the next best
thing Is to walk. I have thought out
the intricate problem. and we will profit
by the trip. We not only will see the
dear old college triumph over the foe.
but we will see some of the world as
well. 1t Is only hike of thirty-five
miles, and II there Is one man in this
gathering who hasn't the nerve to make
the trip let him stand up SO that I can
point the finger OF scorn at him."
No one stood up, so the plot was hatch
The faithful eighteen gathered in front
of the college at o'clock Friday evening
and started on the thirty-iye-mile Wes-
ton. No one was there to hive them a
rousing send-off, so they cheered them
selves. 1t was a happy party, those
loyal students. and they started out with
long strides and springy steps. as IL they

THE PASSING OF THE
ONLY NICK YOUNG
Famous Uncle Nick" Was Maker of
Real Baseball History.

The passing from earth's activities OF
Nicholas z. Young in Washington on
Tuesday appeared to cause scarce a rip
pie OF interest or regret outside his i'm
mediate circle. Amy one who broached
the subject in conversation with John NJ.
Ward or Arthur IrYin or Pop Anson or
with any other veteran Of baseball's
pantheon, however, found himself en-.
tirely surrounded by revived memories
and listened to earnest words of regard
almost of reverence, for the man who
held the reins of the National Leagues
coach and eight-or twelve-for about
two decades.
Uncle Nick Young made baseball his
tory to an extent of which no other hu-
man creature has ever been able to boast.
He was jealous and jealous in a high
degree of the prestige and power of the
older major circuit, and the course which
he followed. extensively and defensively
in its behalf equipped him with an over
ample supply of enemies, and ultimately
led to his laying down the chieftaincy
Of the league in 1902.
1t was in the heart off his tenure OF
office-late in 1S9l-that the National
Leagues wings were expanded to shell
ter twelve clubs. The experiment failed
to Justify itself, and a, state almost OF
turmoil. heightened by the arising of the
Brotherhood. developed. which made the
presidents position no sInecure. After
eight years the dozen became <an octet
and the American League, encouraged
and strengthened, grasped the opportu-
nifty to place clubs in the four deserted
cities. Three years later. In the midst OF
internal dissension and external strife

could cover the distance between College
Park and Annapolis in a few hours.
But the students fingered by the way
side. They halted many times to i'm
press upon themselves what wonderful
college spirit they were showing and re-
hearsed new songs and cheers which
were to be used in the battle with st.
Johns when the team began to falter.
They doped It out how they would save
the game when II became known TO the
players that the faithful eighteen had
WALRED-yes. actually walked-to An
napolis to cheer them to victory. No
football team would DARE to lose be-
fore such a loyal and seh-sacrifcing
band of classmates
They walked all night, and Saturday
morning, at s o'clock the faithful band
trudged wearily across the college cam
pus at st. Johns. They showed the ef-
fects Of the hard trip and loss of sleep.
They were dirty. tired. and looked like
gang OF hoboes after a hard winter.
But they retained their enthusiasm, and
their love for the dear old college caused
them to yawn a couple of the new cheers
as they staggered to the main building.
Several cadets from the college met the
visitors, and when they learned of the
thirty-five-mile walk, college loyalty and
everything else. they were moved to tears
They invited the Maryland boys to their
rooms SO they could shave and wash up,
and then took them to breakfast, Then
the weary walkers went to different rooms
Just to rest up" before the game. They
left strict orders to be called at 10 O'Clock,
as the game was scheduled to start
promptly at 1890. They MUST see the
game. for how could the team win with
out the new cheers and songs?
But something went wrong. A terrible
mistake was made. The team rushed out
on the field at 1890 and no one knew that
the faithful eighteen had made the trim
The few rooters gave the old cheers, sang
the old songs, but did not realize that
something was missing in the picture. The
faithful eighteen did not even know II
themselves. The beds were comfortable,
their legs were sore and weary and they
slept as they never slept before. Little
did the Maryland State team know of the
sacrifice made by their college mates
when they made the trip to save the
game.
At l o'clock a small band Of cheering
students stood under the windows Of the
dormitory and hoarsely sang Alma Mater
and whispered good cheers for the Mary
land eleven. The faithful eighteen were
aroused to man. Hastily jumping I'D,
they rushed to the windows and looked
out. The field was deserted. The game
was over and their heroic work went for
naught.
Did they get up and cheer or sing any
Of the new songs? They did-NOT. They
did not even ask the score or who won.
They yawned sleepily, gazed longingly at
the beds and crawled back again to rest
UP for the return journey.

KEYSER AGREES TO
MEET MIKE URAINE

Manager Joe oIiveri. of the Maryland
Athletic and Social Club, announced last
night that he had received a telephone
message from Jack" Snyder. manager
of Fay Keyer, stating that he would
match his man against Mike Uraine, the
well-known Washington scrapper, pro-
vided the bout was pulled OF on the six
teenth Of this month.
Uraine, before agreeing to meet the
Cumberland miner. stipulated that Keyer
must make l5s pounds at o'clock on the
night of the fight, otherwise he would
not enter the ring against him. Uraine's
action in this matter was sctusted by
the rumors which were afioat that Sny-
der's protege could not make the mid
dle-weight limit. Any doubts as 70
Keyer's fighting weight are dispelled by
the acceptance OF the conditfons as laid
down by the National Capital fighter.
Snyder further stated that he would ar
rive in Washington within the next two
or three days and sign the articles for
the bout, which Manager Oliver says
will be for fifteen rounds.

The big Blue and Gray squad from the
Capital City was -hilxed to the Hotel Cum

up the Hub City way. Immediately sent
the candidates to their rooms. Georgetown
Is prepared for this battle. and will be
satisfied with nothing but a clean-cut VIC
tory. The Jesuit title Of the East IL at
stake In this contest and the visitors
with veteran back field and Ncrack-a-
jack line are the favorites.
The past weeks practices at the Ford
ham field has strengthened their outlook
for this ancient election day clash. Coach
Gargan, who is a former Georgetown cap
tain and coach. has the candidates for
the Fordham team in the best of shape
and last night claimed that he looks for
a victory by the Manhattan Jesuits.
Fordham has not defeated Georgetown
since 1908. and the best It has done was
to tie the Southerners in 1909. This sea-
son the Catholic collegians have the best
teams in their history and each has
played excellent football to date. George
town is the favorite, but Fordham has
been working until dark for the past two
weeks mastering a deceptive attack that
Head Coach Gargan claims will take
Georgetown by storm.
The Fordham mentor coached at
Georgetown two seasons ago and has
planned a defense for Gilroy's end runs
which he believes will check the George
town star. Gilroy IL Just one-half Of
Georgetown's offensive power He ripped
the Fordham team to pieces last season.
Dempsey, who played with Georgetown
last season and made a reputation in the
Princeton game by his end runs, will
play against his former teammates in
the Fordham lineup. His kicking will
be missed by Georgetown and easily be
the feature Of the game.
President Joseph A Mulry Of Fordham
University, has arranged a reception for
the Fordham and Georgetown alumni
after the contest and II is expected 400
Georgetown rooters will occupy their sec
ton Of the cheering stand. Accommo-
dations have been made for 5000 people
and the game promises to be the biggest
athletic event Fordham has ever staged.
Should Fordham win from George
town there is a probability that Rutgers
and Fordham will play q post season
game at the Polo Grounds for the cham
pionship Of Greater New York colleges.
This has never been settled In former
years. although advocated by the under
graduates Of each college having a team
within a radius Of fifty miles from New
York.

BOWIE RACE Meeting
PROMISES GOOD SPORT
Best Horses in Training viii Be Seen
in Action at Prince George Park.

Baltimore, Nov. 6.-Among the racing
fraternity here it is freely predicted that
the coming autumn race meeting Of the
Southern Maryland Agricultural Assoeia-
ton at Bowie will be one OF the most
successful in the history OF the sport at
that track from every viewpoint
Certain It is that the best horses in
training will be seen in action in the vari-
Gus feature events which have been sched-
uled for the meeting, and the prospect
is for some excellent sport That the
quality OF sport will warrant big attend
ances Is accepted as a fact, and IL is ex-
pected that the gates will be as large,
IL not larger, than ever before.
Racing in this section 10 In full bloom.
Never has il been as popular as II is at
the present time. and there is every rea-
son to believe that the era OF prosperity
will continue for quite a spell. The rae
ing at Pimlico has been all that could be
desired and the attendance there has
been satisfactory. Taken by and large
racing in Maryland is quite q factor in
the sport and it promises to continue to
be so.
Discussing the coming meeting Of the
Southern Maryland Agricultural Associa-
tion, a man prominent in racing said d:
II am sure the meeting at Bowie will be
tural Association has ever had / have
discussed the situation with recognized
leaders in turf activity and the opinion
is unanimous that better sport from every
viewpoint will obtain. And this Is saying
something, for the meets at Bowie have
been uniformly good.
'I have been identified with racing for
many years and 1 can truthfully say that
have never before seen so much inter
est in the autumn meetings as has been
shown this year. 1t certainly is encourag-
ing to those who breed thoroughbreds, for
1t shows that with the rehabilitation OF
the sport on New York tracks the whole
country has benefited.
IF this autumnal interest can he ac-
cepted as a criterion OF what may be ex-
pected a year hence. and there is no rea-
son why it should not. it is safe to pre-
dict that 1917 will be one Of the greatest
racing years in the history Of racing In
