Cleveland Uprising

1t only goes to show what the addition
one star can do at times for one club
For in Cleveland's case it was not only
the physical aid that Iris Speaker fur
nished, but the moral support. The day
that Speaker landed his mates began to
feel that new order was at hand-that
the turn had at last arrived; that the new
owners meant business. So, in. place of
subsiding gently and doing a high dive at
the first blow, the Indians turned and be-
gan to fight. So far they are the seasons
sensations. What they may do later on
belongs TO the future.
Sufficient unto the day is the dope
thereof. The point is that Cleveland is
back upon the baseball map. where she
belongs in memory of Pat Tebeau, Rhody
Wallace. Cupid Childs. Cy Young, Jimmy
AIcAleer, Nap LajOie, Bill Bradley, Addle
Joss and other stars from the past that
she has known and nourished and sent to

The Yale Advance

Judging from the keenness with which
Yale has gone in for spring football prae-
tice, next fall is going to bring about a
decided change in Eli affairs. The most
encouraging feature in Yale football af-
fairs is that Tad Jones, Mike Sweeney
and Captain Black all have the personal
magnetism that makes for the best type
of leadership, and this means a new en-
thusiasm that New Haven hasn't seen for
a long time.
Yale was at first surfeited and stale
with victory up to 1908 Then she went
stale with defeat The hour is about ripe
for the renaissance.

And life has lost its thrill;
But as the drifting ShudoU nedrs
Across our pathway strung.
We hold ono dream OF UdniShed gears

But t0hen along the Udnquished beat,

When Matty's arm toas young.
We knoto the lao that rules the game
Where all must one day Yield:
We knolo the FckleHess Of fame
Along the open field;
We knOt0 the bitterness that comes

HARVARD TRACK
TEAM Is READY
FOR DUAL MEET
Crimson and Cornell Ath-
letes Compete at Ithaca
on Saturday
EAGERLY WATCH RESULT
By TED MEREDITH

The most interesting dual meet to be
held this Saturday will prove to be the
Cornell-Harvard track and field meet at
Ithaca. 1t is interesting due to the fact
that it will bring out all of Moakey's ma
terial and show the track world just
what the Cornell coach has been doing
during the winter and what his results
have been. Moakley always springs sur
prise each year which usually amazes
the public and brings him good results
when the Intercollegiate come around.
Last year It was his development of
rs hurdlers who placed in the inter-
CA giates and the running of Spieden
in the half mile. Spieden started as a
two-miler in 1913, then won the mile in
1914 and last year was put in the half
where he finished second. TO one can
tell where Moakley will use his men until
the dual meets make him show his hand
Reports from ithaca are that they fear
team, but don't see why they
should. Cornell 1t Is true has few stars.
but their team as n whole is the best in
the country. They have good, reliable men
in every event and will beat Harvard
easily.

College baseball is overshadowed by the
professional game. Yet we'd like to
have a small wager that a three-game
series between Columbia and Harvard
played alternately in New York and Bos-
ton at league parks, would draw over
5000 people.
