JACK MOAKLEY HIGHEST PAID
TRACK COACH IN AMERICA
Cornell Giving Him
About $4,000 for TO-
year Contract, Is the
General Belief

TACK MOAKLEY, the Cornell Univer-
sJ sity track coach and football trainer, is
the highest paid such official in America.
The fact that Cornell has just signed him
TO a lO-year contract undoubtedly means
that this famous wizard in the develop
ment of college athletes win receive in
the neighborhood of $4,000 for his work
during the next decade.
Not only is Moakley unquestionably the
highest paid track coach In the country,
but he is the first man ever to receive
a contract of such length Monkeys
last contract was only for three years,
Mike Murphy at the time of his death
was finishing out a five-year contract at
a salary said to be more than 5000 q
year
While the Cornell authorities have not
made public the amount of Monkeys sal
AIRY it must be al least 5000 year Moak-
ley, of course, is worth 10 Cornell all
he will get, for without doubt several
other universities would take him at a
big salary II they knew him TO be avail
able.
Since the death OF the late Mike Muir
ply Moakley has taken his place as the
greatest track coach in America. Since
1905, when Cornell won its first intercol-
legiate championship. Monkeys teams
have carried on this honor six times. in
addition TO winning the cross-country
championship IA times II the Olympic
games are ever revived the chances are
that Moakley will succeed Mike Murphy
as its coach.
There are two things that make Moak-
ley the great coach he Is: First, he Is an

THEY settled long-standing grudge

THEY settled a long-standinE Erudge
i at the Olympic A. C. last night. 1t was
n three -cornered affair, with two boxers
and the Dear Old Public participating
AS usual, the Dear Old Public got the
worst of 1t.
Mr.. Eddie O'Keefe and MIR. Lew Tend
Ter, residents of our city, devoted is min
uteS of their valuable time in an effort
to settle the argument as to who is the
bantamweight champion Of Philadelphia
1t was terrible argument and they
almost came to blows. At the end both
claimants to the title were breathing
heavily,
Mr., O'Keefe put up n miserable exhibit
tiOn of boxing. and his performance was
equaled by Mr.. Tender. For five and
one-half rounds they did everything but
slap each other on the wrist, while the
Dear Old Public-4OOO strong-maintained
a gloomy silence. At the end no one
cared who got the local bantamwciGht
title. 1t was an unsatisfactory draw, and
we suggest that the next argument be
settled by matching pennies or playing
a game of pinoche. The result will be
more satisfactory and the contest more
interesting.
A Great Success
As a "chaser" the windup was a huge
success. The crowd began to leave in
the second round and before the time
keeper mercfully put an end to the blood
less struggle in the sixth only a few OF
the faithful remained. Among those was
Emery Ttman, who was wedged in his
seat and couldn't depart until assistance
arrived.
Before the fght-we insist on calling 1t
a hght--it was reported that large wads
of legal tender had been wagered on the
result 1t was impossible to interview any
of the plungers last night, but it is safe
to say that none suffered from heart fall
ure during the contest. The result never
was in doubt and there was no chance
for knockout unless policeman
climbed through the ropes and used his
club. Too bad we didn't think of this
last night
Eddie did some excellent dancing in the
first round and succeeded in evading

HEDGES DECLARES
TURMOIL
IS NOT OVER YET
Readjustments Under New
Owners Will Take Time,
He Claims
A BOUT MILLIONAIRES

That baseball will still have its saliva
tion to work out after the settlement of
the peace conditions, is the opinion of
X. l.. Hedges. formerly president of the
Browns, who from his new viewpoint on
the outside a-looking in, takes peep
into the future of the national game
Outside of conditions relating to the
late baseball war, there are evidences
that powerful as organized baseball would
seem to be, it will still have blowholes
in its armor and an Achilles heel, through
which, in the opinion of the former st.
Louis magnate, it may be dealt serious
blows
"Basebals future is certain to work
out all right some day" said Hedges.
But in the meantime there are many
things to be adjusted before 1t settles
down to a permanently established, non
assailable basis.
