Japs Fond of Sport and Are Proficient

A MERICANS interested in sport, re-
turning from Japan, report that the
Japanese are rapidly assimilating Oc
cidental sports in general, just they
did baseball following it's introduction
into, the land of Nippon. Golf, tennis
and motoring are all gaining devotees
by the hundreds, and some of the Japa-
nese players are showing a proficiency
on the court and links that promises
to make them formidable opponents in
the course of a few years.
In a recent discussion anent sport in
general and golf in particular, a prom
1nent Japanese who was graduated
from the University Of Pennsylvania
not so many years ago said:
'"You know we really have no game,
perhaps excepting tennis, which a man
may continue as his years pile up, and
we know that exercise is necessary to
keep dt.' Golf fills the, bill for US. AS
a nation we are fond of games. Wres-
thing and fencing have for centuries
been. compulsory in the education of all
Japanese gentlemen, and recent years
have seen our schools taking up base
ball, tennis, hockey and football with
very considerable success"
George w. Guthrie, the American
ambassador, who is an enthusiastic
golfer, has presented the Tokyo club
will probably be selected as the club
championship cup, always to remain
the property of the club, the winner
receiving a replica. In honor of the
Donor and the country he represents
the final round will always be played
off annually on the Fourth of July.
Several of the other principal cities
have established golf clubs, notably
Yokohama and Kobe, while in other
sections organizations of a similar
character are in progress of formation.
The turf of Japan lends itself readily
to ideal fairways and greens, and the
courses have sufficient natural and
artificial bunkers and hazards to test
the skill of the best players. Another
Indication of strides golf is making in
japan is the fact that a publication
devoted entirely to the game and bear
ing the title the Bunker is now pub
Iished monthly in Tokyo.
That the game will be success in
Japan returning tourists say is certain.
They point out that the younger Japa-

is, or was, merely a very popular fight
er. He was popular because he is Irish
and the pet of the motormen. and their
enthusiasm was catching, but no one
who made a study of ring affairs was
fooled by it. Coffey had shown too
often that he possessed a weak jaw to
be regarded as championship material
Yet Moran is receiving as much credit
for beating him though he had per-
formed a great feat.
OF course Moran is not entirely with
out his good qualities, Personally he
is the prince of good fellows, and if he
ever does win the title he will be a
most popular champion, but as a fight
er his assets are decidedly limited.
Moran's admirers dwell on two points
his cool head and his powerful hitting.
Regarding the many other qualities es-
sential for success, they wisely say
nothing, for the very good reason that
there is nothing favorable to be said.
That Moran keeps remarkably clear
head in the ring there is no doubt. If

the age of twenty-nine, after his youth
full energy has begun to leave, his
friends are trying to make the public
believe that the clumsy Pittsburgher is
the man to take WIZARDS measure
within the ten round limit.
And all that Moran can point to is
that he defeated Jim Coffey. Before
that he had no particular standing. He
was made to look ridiculous by the an
Gent Jack johnson, and he had lost. to
every other real fighter he had met
His defeats of Al Palzer and Bombar-
der Wells meant nothing, for Palzer
had run his short career before Moran
stopped him, and Wells is more or less
of a joke even in England, where they
look upon Young Ahearn as his equal.
The Moran boosters seem to forget
that Coffey is not a great fighter. He

SHILLING BOYS HAVE
GREAT TURF CAREER

p REMARKABLE has been the career
of the Shilling family on the turf.
First, James, the eldest of the five
brothers, made good in the saddle, and
then came George, who met his death
when his mount fell with him during
the running of a race at New Orleans,
at City Park track, March 5, 1906. The
most famous of the family, c. H. (CaI)
Shilling, like James, now an owner and
trainer of horses. followed and was in
the front rank of the best riders of his
time. He was set down in the east
several years ago for rough riding and
has since made many efforts to secure
reinstatement, but without success.
It is the general opinion that even
now, after his long letup were he given
a chance to ride his work would be as
brilliant as of old. He keeps in excel
lent condition at all times by continu-
ally exercising the majority of the
horses which he trains. The next of
the brothers to ride was Rufus, and he
is now doing about the best work of
his career in the saddle at the Juarez
course. The last of the five brothers to
graduate as a winning rider is Hugh,
who won his first race at Juarez on
Dec. l. He appears to be a first class
prospect, for his present riding weight
is but ninety-three pounds. 8
The homestead Of the Shilling family
is at Paris, Tex, where all these five
race riders were born and raised until
they associated themselves with the
turf. There has been a number of in
stances of brothers, even up to the
number of three, making good as jock,
eys, but the five Shilling boys is the
first case on record where all the male
members of a family became success
full jockeys.

Not only does she know and swim all
the different strokes perfectly, but she
is an adept at giving diving and life
saving exhibitions as well. Katherine
has won SO many cups and medals for
exhibition work and has had so many
columns written about her that she is
rather blase at the age of six
Commodore Brown has planned an
active season for himself this sum-
mer. Al states that he intends to
make all the SO called long distance
swimming champions lower their colors
to him this year. He would like a
meeting with Elionsky, who recently
issued challenge to him It's now up
to Elionsky to name the course he
wants to swim. Any old course is
suitable to Brown.
While on the subject of swimming it
might be well to suggest that "a race
from New York to Sandy Hook with
Meehan, Brown and Elionsky would be
one of the biggest events ever held
and would attract enormous amount
of interest in aquatic circles.

TINKER COUNTS ON
HAVING STAR INFIELD
OF THE YEAR 1916

MANAGER JOE TINKER of the
>'- Cubs says he will have the best
inf1eld in the National league this sea-
son. This probably will be disputed
by other leaders in the organization.
The inf1eIders. Tinker has gathered
are proficient in both batting and field
ing. Mike Doolan is the only weak
batter, and yet he is dangerous enough
in a, pinch to make him valuable with
the club. Where he is at his best,
though, is between second and third.
He is almost in a class by himself
when it comes to covering ground,
picking up batted balls and getting
them over to first like a flash. Base
ball players declare there is not an
other man in the game, not barring
Evers, Wagner, ~Maranville, Collins or
Bancroft, who gets the ball away from
him in any position faster than Doo-
Ian. His arm is not wonderfully strong,
but he sets himself cleverly for a
bounder and sends it to first with the
same motion in which he handles it
that it is nearly impossible to beat out
a bounder to him, no matter where it
is batted.
One does not have to go into detail
to explain how Safer ranks as a fielder
at first. 1t lis also unnecessary to say
much about his batting. While not as
great as it might have been in the last
two years. it is predicted he will gain
a higher average this year than ever
before because it is thought he will be
on a pennant winning club. AS a slug
ger OF long hits he ranks as one of the
best He is a much improved ball
player because he has learned to take
the initiative on the bases, knows what
to do when up in a pinch and has
learned to study a play when the op-
position is on the offense.
Zimmerman has always been a de-
structive hitter, although in the last
two summers it was difficult for him
to give his best efforts. Much of his
trouble was with the manager, but
some of it was domestic. The latter
has been removed.
Yerkes must be a second baseman
OF class, because Tinker was SO eager
to secure him. Tinker played with
the greatest of all keystone sackers-
Evers-for years and knows one when
he sees him. He is eIated over the ac-
QUESTION of the former Boston Red Sox
player and predicts the Cub fans will
be delighted with his playing because
he is steady, knows the game, is fast
on double plays and can hit. He is not
a whirlwind on the bases, although
fairly speedy in going to first. He is a
big fellow, shaping up much ike Zim-S
norman. Yerkes' presence on the Cub
team will give Tinker a giant infieId,
for all four men are big.
