KING OF SHORTSTOPS
Ray Chapman of Cleveland In
dams, Hits Ball Hard.
outcIasses Shareholders In Other
Things Besides Batting-AbIity to
Sacrifice Makes Him Invalu-
able Player.

Ray Chapman of the Cleveland In
dians, has usurped the crown for being
the hardest hitting shortstop in the
major leagues, taking the honor away
from Arthur Fletcher of the Giants,
who has enjoyed the distinction ever
since Honus Wagner of the Pirates,
slipped back a few years ago.
Moreover, Chapman is outclassing
the shortfielders in other things besides
hitting. He has stolen more bases than
any man in either league, leading both
iTy Cobb and Max Carey. He is easily
the most valuable all-round shortstop
in the game on this years record.
They can talk about Meanwhile, Ban
croft and Peckinpaugh and Fletcher as
the king of shortfelders. But you cam
not put in the balance .245 or even a
.26O batting average with one better
than 300 by little superlative fielding,
particularly when the 300 hitter is a
very capable fielder himself.
Chapman is not only the leading bat
ter of the major leagues this year
among the shortstops, remarkable
base runner and great run scorer,

HERMIT SCULPTOR IS FOUND
Spends Time Modelling Little Master
pieces Which He. Promptly De-
stroys Upon Completion.

There has been discovered at Cape
Scott, one of the most solitary points
in Vancouver island, by the chief en-
gineer of the public works department
of British Columbia, sculptor who
spends his time In modelling little mas
terpieces from Jumps Of clay and then
destroying them, relates an exchange.
He is A. It. Whittier, and he calls
himself q 'prospector." Living entire
ly alone, he has for the past two years
been carrying out lonely Investigations
of mineral claims in his neighborhood.
His sculptor's tools are Of the simplest
kind, and it is his habit to work with
the same piece of clay, which weighs
scarcely five pounds, but with that he
has modelled scores of objects.
The government engineer found him
just as he had completed bust Of the
martyred British nurse, Edith Cavell.
Mr.. Whittier was about to destroy the
work in order that he might use the
clay for a miniature statue Of his son,
who was recently killed. He was, how
ever, persuaded to part with the bust,
which is to be auctionedfn aid of the
Red Cross funds.

LONG DRIVE is SATISFYING
Golfer Is More Than Pleased When
Ball Goes 200 Yards Straight
Down the Field.

What is the secret of the long drive
in the game Of golf? That it is not
entirely due to physical power has been
proven, but the answer proves the
most elusive Of things when one seeks
to drive it to its lair. Let one say
what he will about the feeling of sat-
isfaction over a mashie pitched well
to the green, or long iron sent speed
ing toward the flag, or even the putt
Of 20 feet that lands in the cup-when
all this is said and done, there Is no
exhilaration in golf quite comparable
with that which follows drive well
over 200 yards sent straight down the
middle of the field.
There is an approach to it, one must
admit, in the exultation that succeeds
a brassie shot of 200 yards or more,
for there is certain surprise mingled
with delight at picking the ball out of
the grass and sending it on its way
like a bullet, and the element Of sur
prise is lacking in the drive where the
teed ball presents suggestion of GER
tainty which is not to be found out
on the fairway. Still the tee shot
begins the play of the hole, the senti-
ment that "well begun Is half done"
cannot but be associated with the in
itial shot, since if it is poorly made,
there is handicap established at once
that must be overcome in the succeed
ing shots.

BETTER PLAYERS IN FUTURE
American Boys Will Learn Baseball
Game Under Competent lnstruc-
tors on the Fairgrounds.

A prominent major league manager
recently made the assertion that base
ball of the future would be immeas-
urably benefited if the playground sys-
TEN reaches the high plane Of develop
ment to which it is destined to rise if
good sportsmen viii keep their Shout
ders to the wheel.
This leader Of ball players based his
statement upon the fact that as base
ball is one of the leading diversions Of
the youth who makes use Of the play
grounds, they will learn Americas ma
tional game under the best possible
conditions. They will have it drilled
into them in most cases by the COM
petent instructors that are assigned to
playground directing, and they will
also gain their knowledge Of the game
under the proper disciplinary methods.
The real success in any line Of sport
comes from Its pursuit under compe-
tent direction and with the proper dis
cipline exercised. This viewpoint is
worthy of thought. If it holds good of
baseball, it also follows that the same
result will be attained in tennis, track
athletics and other sports, and that the
next generation will be far superior to
the present in all athletics.

but has become the most adept man in
the game in the use of the sacrifice.
Chapman's ability to sacrifice has made
him invaluable in the second position
Of the Cleveland batting order.
The base-running ability of the Cleve-
lander is the more remarkable because
Of the fact that two years ago he in
jured his knee so badly that it was
feared it might cause his retirement
from baseball. 1t did handicap him Sc
verely last year. In fact, Wambsganss
was thought to have supplemented him
permanently at shortstop for the In
dams.
A hitting shortstop has been a rarity
since the passing Of Wagner. Fletcher
has been the only shortfelder of the
big leagues to make any pretense at
hitting until Ohapman's rise.

PARIS TO BE BOXING CENTER
That Is Prediction of Dick KIegin, In.
ternatonaI PugiIist Promoter
Game Is Popular.

"Wksn the European war is over
and things have settled down to some
thing like normal, Paris will be the
greatest boxing center the world has
ever known" This is the prediction
made by Dick Klegin, international
pugilist promoter.
"They appreciate boxing to the full
est in the great French capital. And
don't for a moment think that the
French republic will not produce some
great men, too," he added.
Carpenter is not the only great
fighter they have had. He naturally
attracted the most attention because
he was big fellow and had meteoric
career. He came up practically from
featherweight. fighting his way
through all the classes as he took on
weight.
England always has boosted of it's
great boxers, but that nation will have
to step some to hold its own with the
French after the war;"

ADAM SPRUNG FIRST JOKE
Asked Eve If She Expected an Ich-
thyosaurus, When She Objected
to Spider on Rose.

We believe that in the Garden Of
Eden, Adam gave Eve a rose in ex-
change for a kiss. And she shuddered
and said, ugh! There's spider on
the rose?" And he answered, well,
what dc you expect for one stingy lit
tie Nissan ichthyoSauruS?'
We believe that to be the oldest joke
in the world-older than the goat, the
mother-in-law, or any that are sup
posed to be included in the Original
Seven. In varying forms one finds it
In the Talmud, in Plautus, in Aesop,
almanacs and comic papers.
When we were boy, it was told in
a minstrel show, thus: A man buys a
suit of clothes at secondhand store.
He comes back and complains that the
coat is inhabited by unpleasant insects.
And the dealer says, swell, what do
you expect for Swimming birds?"
Vaudeville knows it in this form !:
Tenant-'Look here, you'll have to
make some repairs in this house. The
cellar Is full of water! Landlord
swell, what do you expect for $15 a
mOnth-champagne?"
And just last week we ran across
our old friend again in a weekly comic
paper. This time passenger on a
street car calls down the conductor for
not calling the names of the streets
distinctly. And the conductor replies,
swell, what do you expect for $14 a
week-a tenor Solo?"
Lastly-a few days ago, we ran a
version of the old thing in this column.
We cut it's hair, trimmed its whiskers,
and fitted it with new suit, but we
could not disguise it completely. When
you run across it in any of it's cos
tunes, send us clipping, will you?
We are making collection of that
