SPECTACULAR PLAY OF YEAR
Most Thrilling Catch Was Made by
Al Walters, Yankee Catcher, In
White Sox Game.

In looking over the seasons spectac-
ular plays 1t Is generally agreed that
the most thrilling catch was made on
the Polo grounds In New York short
ly before the season closed by Al Wal
tiers, the little Yankee catcher. In n
game against the White SoX. Walters
raced all the way to the New York
dug-Out for foul, caught the ball on
the edge of the cement and then fell
into the dug-Out. Before other play
ers could reach him Walters was on
his feet and out again, ready to make
play on Jackson, who was on first
base when the ball was fouled. Wal
tiers didn't drop his ball, which was
great work, but what's more, he didn't
forget the play he might have to make.
Furthermore, this was the first game
Walters caught since he sustained Il
compound fracture of finger at De-
troit on July Do.

OUiMEi ENTERS ARMY
Famous Golfer Would Make Ex-
ceIIent Leader of Men.
Probably No Player In United States
Is Better known-tie Is Familiar
to the Outsider as the Ty
Cobb Of the Game.

Francis Ouimet entered the Ma
tional army n couple of weeks ago.
Even though his going had been an
ticipated for some time, the transla-
ton of Boston's greatest golfer from
his home to military camp Is worth
more than passing mention.
BY quietly taking his place in the
ranks without fuss Jr feathers or any
attempts to evade his country's call,
Francis Ouimet has upheld the honor
of the game of golf just as every one
who knew him expected he would.
Probably no golfer in the United
States is better Known than Oumct.
Chick Evans, Walter J. Travis and
Jerome Travers are familiar names to
every golfer, but Oumet's fame ex-
tends far beyond the limits of the
golfing fraternity. To the outsider he
is the Ty Cobb of golf.
Whether or not his fame is more or
less accidental is beside the question.
II exists and ever sihce he so sudden
ly acquired It in 1913 he has kept to
high standard. which has enabled him
to maintain his place. If he had not
been Il great golfer, even the fame
gained at Brookline would have passed
away.
It would not surprise his friends TO
see him selected as one of the candi-
dates for II commission who are TO be
chosen from the ranks of the drafted
men. Quiet and unassuming though he
Is, he would make an excellent officer,
and his superiors are not likely to be
long In finding that out.
Golfers are proud Of Ouimet rs he
takes the first steps on the long road
which eventually will lead him to the
battle front, where he will have his

COOPER MAKES fine RECORD
Pirate Pitcher Turned In Seventeen
Victories This Year--charged
With Eleven Defeats.

Just how good pitcher Wilbur
Cooper of the Pirates is illustrated
by the fact that the star of the Smoky
City teams staff turned in II victories
this year.
AS he Is charged with II defeats, he
has an average of COS, compiling this
mark while pitching for team that
finished in last place with an average
of 1881. Cooper alone won nearly II
third of the Pirates victories for them
and would have made an even more
impressive record had his support been
better.
Only five pitchers in the National
league won more games this year than
Cooper did. They are Schupp, Sallee,
Alexander, Toney and Vaughn, and
with the exception of Vaughn, all We're
on first division clubs. Cooper ably
fills Al MamauX's shoes as the best OF
the Pirate pitching corps.

regime.
Sharpe went to Cornell as coach
from Hill school of POttstOwn, Pa.,
where he left splendid record.
While at Hill school he was often
used as football official. OF recent
years his duties ut Cornell have made
1t impossible for him to handle many
games.
AS a football player In the early
nlneties Sharpe was famous for his
kicking and line-bucking abilities. AL
though tall, slender man, he was u
remarkably hard line breaker. His
kicking was always sensational. In
this department of football Sharpe was

an earth embankment, and about 300
seats for wv" men In front of the rail-

wooden seats for 5000 persons are be

The 1915 legislature appropriated

DR.. SHARPE TRAINING
Noted Football Coach Is WORKING
to Be Army Officer.
A. Player, Official and Coach He Has
Been In Football Limelight for
Twenty Years--Without
Peer as an Athlete.

DR.. GAP Sharpe, head coach of the
Cornell team for the past half dozen
years, has answered the call of the
colors and Is working to be an army
officer at the students camp near Wa
tertown, N. Y.
AS o player, official and coach, Doc
tor Sharpe has been in the football
limelight for 20 years. In his student
days the former Cornell coach had
the distinction of winning his varsity
letter In more branches of sports than
any other man who ever attended Yale
university. In baseball, football, crew,
track and basketball Doctor Sharpe
was without a peer as collegiate
athlete.
The wonderful personality that won
him thousands of friends. while an
athlete. proved an invaluable asset as
a coach. No player was too insignifi-
cant to escape the eyes of Doctor
Sharpe while he had charge of the
Cornell squad Men who to some in
structOrs possessed no real value de-
veloped into stars under the coaching
of Doctor Sharpe. Because of this
fact, hundreds who formerly relegated
themselves to the cheering sections
would don football toys and each day
would see record squads working for
the Cornell teams.
When he took charge at Cornell the
Ithaca college was annually beaten by
Pennsylvania on Franklin field. In
1915, after working with the Cornell
squad for several seasons, Sharpe
saw his work blossom into champion
ship possibilities, the first that had
been developed ut Ithaca I'm years.
