Reasons Why American Athletes Excel

athletes, energetic of mind as we'll al of body, have devised new and more favorable positions in which to clear the bar, with the head slightly, if any, higher than the body.
 Pacific coast jumpers originated the method of taking the bar in a side ways position, and this has proved very effective. In the pole vault Mike Mur- phy trained his men to give a sort of jerk, or shoot, to the body as they cleared the bar, thus attaining greater momentum and perceptibly increased height.
 Tn this connection I might say that the Pacific coast has in the fullest bloom or in the process of development at this time some wonderful athletes tall, rangy chaps, capable under fa- vorable conditions of startling per- formances. There have been some skeptical voices raised hereabouts with reference to certain record breaking achievements out toward the setting sun. but have no doubt whatever of the authenticity of the figures"
The Bridgeport evening farmer., 1916-07-19

The falling off of the base running is to be attributed solely to the wide prevalence of southpaw pitching this season. Not age, not the catchers, not managerial conservatism. but the fact that every club in the American league except Philadelphia has two, left hand ed slabsters in regular service is the reason why the base runners of the league are having such hard time catching up with the records of former years.
 Against a left handed pitcher with any sense at ali 1t is almost impossi- ble to steal, for the simple reason that it is the next thing to impossible to get a start off the bag The southpaw, un- like his right handed brother, is prac- tically always in a position to throw to first.
 A single movement of one foot suf- fees to lift him over the balk danger. and many of them, perhaps 75 per cent, use such a delivery that until the mo- ment the ball leaves their hand 1t Is difficult in the extreme to guess whether they are going to throw to first base or to the plate.
 When this season first got under way a veritable mania for speed appeared to have set almost the entire western wing of the American league to cir cling madly around the bases, stealing corners or making a strong effort for extra distance on the slightest pre- texts, or none at all.
 This style of playing naturally at- tracted the followers of the sport, and the general belief was soon formed that
The Bridgeport evening farmer., 1916-07-19

many of the players were after each others record for base stealing.
 But when 1t became apparent that they were not logging 1t as bravely as a flock of suburbanites chasing the 5:15 the fans assumed different atti- tude. and then the talk started to go around the circuit of Where are the speed boys this year?"
 At first, when a few wide awake fans became aware of the fact. they were a bit timid in expressing themselves in the ball parks, but when the belief strengthened 1t was not long before nearly all were abreast with the news. Now it is occupying most of the fans interest.
 It is assumed that after short while the flying squadron will again be seen in action. This assumption is met with the statement that they better start right away if they are desirous of hanging up a new mark for base stealing for the 1916 season.
 The southpaw blight has always been more or less prevalent in the American league, but never to the same extent as this year. when there are fifteen of them working regularly with seven clubs, and three more filling emergency roles.
 The list comprises: Yankees, Cullop Mogridge and Love; Boston. Gregg Leonard and Ruth; Washington, Harp CT and Boehling; Chicago, Russell, Dan- forth and Williams; Detroit, Coveles- kie and Hamilton; Cleveland, Mitchell and Coumbe; St. Louis. Plank. Weil- man and Koob.

ATHLETICS WILL MISS OLDRING

RUBE OLDRING'S decision to quit
 the game seems to have no other purpose than the carrying out of a plan which originated with himself. Old ring. who undoubtedly still is capable player and was for years one of the members of the Mackmen who did much to bring about the numerous pen nant victories, has grown tired of the
 game. He says he felt himself slip
 ping and did not want ultimately to
 find himself in the minor leagues.
 Oldring would have been eagerly
 sought by many of the other major
 league clubs, and he would have i brought a fair price had he been put on the market
 The former star was thoroughly dis gusted with the game. He frequently told Connie Mack he would quit the game, but Mack did not take him se- riously and always succeeded in per- suading him to remain with the team. Finally in a game which the Griffmen played in Philadelphia recently Old ring walked to the bench and said to Mack, Send some one out in left, am through" This was taken as a joke, but the next day Rube dropped Mack a note in which he made it plain that he was through with baseball for all time to come
 There arc few instances where ball players have quit the game when they J were still able to draw 8 good salary

JOCKEY DuoAN TO RIDE IN RUS A..1-f lta 8lA .M

JOCKEY EDDIE DUGAN has gone
 to Russia to ride for the Countess Eugene 'Lazaren. '. He sailed recently and as he has signed long term con- tract with the countess may never be seen in the saddle again on an Amer- 1can race track.
 Dugan is one of the greatest riders who ever held rein. He was riding in Russis when the war broke out He had been abroad during the dark days of racing in this country. riding with great success in Germany and Austria As we'll as in the realm of the czar.
 In the old days, before the Hart Agnew laws, Dugan rode for August Belmont. 60 when he returned to this country he was again signed by the chairman of the Jockey club.
 When racing was well under way Clarence Turner began to appear d the first string Belmont jockey. and Dugan was on the ground.
 Dugan rode very little for the rest of the year. At Saratoga one day he piloted Friar Rock. who this year won the Suburban, to his first win as . tWo-year-old after Turner had ridden several losing races on the son of Roch Sand.
 Later. in the closing days of the Spa meeting. Dugan met with an automo- bile accident.
 This year he signed with Phil Chinr and rode a few races at Belmont park He appeared to be in superb condition and said that he could make 1oS.

with the bounce and ginger character tstic of American performers.
 The German athlete is strong, but slow of thought, and it is hard to get him on his toes.' As a result of this visit A. c. Kraenzlein, Americas form 'er hurdle champion, was employed as director of athletics for the German empire. Austria employed Al Cope land, and Lawson Robertson had been engaged in the same capacity by Hun gary. but the war postponed the trip.
 Tn our own country we are con- stantly advancing. Records fall right and left, and even the most remarkable figures are not safe for week from the activities of the sharpshooters. This does not mean that better native capacity is at Americas disposal now than in the days of ten or fifteen years ago. when ten fiat in the hundred or f1fteen-two in the high hurdles was a nation wide sensation.
 Then, again. in jumping the take off has been much improved. The path has been made like a billiard table. and

GOLFER KlRkBY HAS GREAT
 YEAR

TT would seem that this is to be Os-
 wald Kirkby's golf year. He has already won the New Jersey and met ropolitan titles. His objective point is now the national championship at Merton. Pa, in September. U s.i ,tl
 September is a long way off. Many things can happen between now and then. but unless something unforeseen occurs Kirkby should make a good showing in this years title play. In fact, if he holds his form he will be favored by many to win. .t
 Of course kirkby has won the New. Jersey and metropolitan titles before this and failed in the national cham pionship. It is not upon the mere win- ming of these titles again that golfers are predicting that he will make a good showing at Merton. it is because of the improvement that his game has shown. Always capable of brilliant golf. Kirkby has acquired the quality of steadiness that he formerly lacked to so marked a degree. This is particu- larly true of his short game. His frn- provement in putting has been remark able.
