the winner OF the Many athletic as
ISOLATION cup for greatest excellence
in athletics during the year, securing
2O4 points. 1t is commanded by Cor
don NJ Jackson, OF East Orange, N. J.
This is one OF the big honors of com

The competition is decided upon the
basis OF the sum of individual per-
formanccs in the different branches
of athletics. Victories in individual
branches, such as feRcing, swimming,
tennis, field and track and others
counts points for tho company to
which the winner belongs, as does
membership in the academy and class
teams, according to the Importance

YOUNG CHANEY HAS.
CHANCE TO CLIMB
BY WINNING TODAY.

BALTIMORE, June 1.-Young
CLANCY gets his chance to land a
place in the sun today when he bat
ties Kid Williams for twelve rounds
at Oriole Park The contest is ex-
pected to be a financial bloomer. the
advance sale being pitiably small for
a show in which BaltimOre's wolf
Boy is a contestant There seems
to be little or no interest in the af-
fair.
Il have guaranteed Williams $1,000
for this bout" says Promoter Henry
Bletzer, who is also manager Of
Young CLANCY. "He will get the
money, every cent of II, and shall
be satisfied If there is only 500 in
the house, il only my boy wins. And
I think he can and will"
Chaney's recent fine showing
against Champion Pete Herman leads
the fans to think he has a chance to
win from Williams. Until that Her
man bout, Andy was a boxer, never
a hitter. But he made Herman look
sick with his right hand blows to
the face and body. and he is ex-
pected to repeat against Williams.

Fred Mitchell, with other baseball

his error. Mitchell's right name is
Yapp, plain Freddie Yapp, from Ar
lington, Mass. Being so close to Bos-
ton, he should have known better
when opposing a fine broth Of boy
named Pete Kilduff, for the Kilduffs
were never known as cutters or
shirkers. And so the Chicago Cubs
have lost one OF the most promising
young infielders in the old league, all
because a Yapp faced Kilduff. The
player is now seeking permission from
his draft board to enlist in the navy,
and the moment he gets 1t, he will
