HOCKEY IS FAv0RITE SPORT
Calming Rapidly In Favor Throughout
Country Where Ice 10 Available
for the Game.

Riding on the crest of the present
skating boom, hockey appears des.
tined to become the premier winter
sport throughout the country where
either natural or artificial ice Is avail.
able for the game. The installation Of
artificial Kinks In the leading eastern
and southern cities has greatly in.
creased interest In the game In these
sections. while In the North and
Northwest. where temperature can be
counted upon to provide ice several
months each year. hockey 10 more
popular than ever before.
This IL due in part to the promi.
nence given the sport by the colleges
during the past few seasons: Hockey
10 now considered the major sport OF
the winter months at number Of lead.
Ing eastern and western universities.
The schedules OF the teams are con.
stantly increasing In length and i'm.
p0rtance OF games, and the players
az they are graduated from college
continue to play for clubs either anna.
teur or professional. International
contests between the leading teams
Of United States and Canadian col.
leges or clubs no longer excite spe.
cial comment although the interest In
the result Is keener than ever.

0'R0URKE IS A REAL VETERAN
For Seventeen Years "orator" Was
Star In Major league-Fieure
In Connecticut Circuit.

The present.day fans look upon
Hans Wagner and Larry Lajoie as the
most ancient In baseball. While these
boys have been cavorting DER the dia.
mOnd green for many moons, yet they
are school kids when compared with
James O'Rourke, who played the out
field and was at one time the star
catcher OF the New York Giants.
O'Rourke's official record began In the
year 1876. that is, his major league
record. For II years after that the
"Orator," as O'Rourke was called, was
q star In tho big show" and for lG
years James was central figure In
the Connecticut State league. He
played in several positions, and one
season his son played on the same
team the "OratOr" managed. So for
33 years James O'Rourke reported for
duty every spring in the pink Of con-
ditiOn.

Honus Wagner has this ambition

this seems to be beyond all logic. It

Wagner last season, In his f0rty.frst

stops In fielding and ranked second
among the shOrtst0ps Of his league In
batting.
He was not quite the Wagner Of ten
years ago, but he still was far from
being through. Three more seasons
will put him over the S,000.game mark,
but there is little chance that he ever
will make the 735 base hits necessary
to complete 4,000-hit total. It would

Of 20 in 900 points. Cochran is gen.

As an expert. young Cochran recalls

Hopes marvellous success as a mas.

practice or otherwise he always played
his best. while young Cochran Is noto.
rious for his recklessness and indiffer.

not. II Is true that he Is still very
young. but It Is no less true that Mr..
Hoppe was also at one period Of his
life younger than Cochran. but dis.
