TURTLE CROUCH IS PECULIAR
Advantage Given Jack Britton by Posi-
ton He Assumes in Ring-Is
Very Hard to Hit.

Jack Britton has been a top-notch
performer for many years. Gameness,
correct living and wise head are
some Of the reasons. But the main
one seems to be his peculiar turtle
crouch, which makes it almost impossi-
BILE for ring foes to hit him.
Britton tits the upper part Of his
body far forward and then swings it
over to the right, leaving nothing more
than his left side exposed. His left
arm is crooked in front of him. If an
opponent shoots a right for Jacks
head the blow is usually detected by
the extended Britton left. If not the
swing goes over the top Of Jacks
head and off into space, as Jack al
ways keeps his head down.
If the other fellow attempts left
uppercut he finds Jacks right cover
ing the jaw, as well as the stomach,
because Britton's crouch doubles him
over in such way that his head is on
line with his stomach.

CAPTAIN LOST TO FoRDHAM
Track Leader Dale Leaves College to
Join Naval Reserves--Third to
Get Into "Big Came"

Fordham university lost another
good athlete when Edmund J. Dale,
captain of this years track team. re-
signed and left college in answer to a
call to the colors from the United
States naval reserve. Eddie is form
er Maroon basket ball captain, and
has played in the outfield and twirled
on the nine. Last year he came out
for the track team and ran fine race
for Fordham in the annual relay car
nival of the University of Pennsyl-
vania.
Dale is the third FOrdham athletic
captain of a major sport for this year
to get into the "big game" Bull Lowe,
who had been elected captain Of the
1917 eleven, has been on the firing line
for several months with the Fordham
university ambulance unit, and Dick
McGinn, captain-elect of the 1918 nine,
is now stationed at the Charlestown
navy yard as a member of the United
States naval reserve.

MAJORS FAVOR MANY
PRELIMINARY GAMES
Several Exhibition Contests
Scheduled by Big Clubs.
Eight of Ten Teams viii Tour With
Rivals En- Route North From South
ern Training Camps-Others
Follow Usual Plans.

Ten major league clubs will devote
from q week to ten days of their
spring training season this year to e1"
hibition contests with teams from
their rival leagues.
Eight of the ten clubs will tour with
rival league teams en- route northWard
from Dixie, and the two st. Louis
clubs are planning to stage their an
nual spring series in the Mound CITY.
The teams which are scheduled to
hook up in exhibition tours, exclusive
of the Cards and Browns, are as fol-
lows:
Cincinnati Reds and Detroit Tigers.
New York Giants and Cleveland In
dams.
New York Yankees and Boston
Braves.
Brooklyn Dodgers and Boston Red
Sox.
Other big league teams, regardless
OF whether or not all arrangements Tor
spring training have been announced
to date, will follow their usual train
ing programs, playing exhibition con
tests with minor league clubs as they
trek back home to open the major
league schedules on April 16.
American League Clubs.
American league clubs may spend
few days longer in training than their
National league rivals II they wish to
do so. There is ruling in the Ma
tional league which limits clubs TO
month of training, and because OF this
rule no club in the mother circuit Will
start active training earlier than
March 16.
AS was the case in 1915, the Chicago
Cubs will cover more territory than
any other team on their training trip.
Weeghman's team will train at Pasa-
dena, Cal, and will probably be the
first to leave for camp, as the trip TO
the Golden state will consume all OF
week.
The worlds champion White Sox
will HE themselves to Mineral Wells,
Tex, just as they did last year. Co.
miskey's team should be great draw
ing card in minor league cities in the
middle West, which will be visited on
the way back to the Northland. The
Giants will train at Marlin and the st.
Louis teams may also train in Texas.
The Dodgers and Red Sox are sched-
uled to train at Hot Springs, Ark, and
Washington will return to Augusta.
Ga. while the Cleveland Indians will
visit New Orleans once again. The
Phillies and Athletics are scheduled to
condition themselves In Florida as
"per usual" and the Pirates, having
deserted Hot Springs, will train In
Georgia, according to plans announced
some time ago.
The fact that so many major league
clubs will chance joint exhibition tours
in minor league territory shows that
the club owners are confident of get
ting results despite the war, for more
interleague exhibition games will be
played this year than ever before by
the minors.

GOLFERS MAKE A VAST ARMY
1t Is Estimated That Recruits of Game
Are 100000 Year-Most Pop
ular Sport.

Although there is no way Of ascer-
tanning accurately the number of new
recruits enrolled as golf devotees each
season, it has been estimated that not
fewer than 100000 join the ranks every
year. And those who are in posi-
Ition to judge say this estimate is con-
servative. There is no doubt that golf
now has more actual participants than
any other sport.
Baseball has thousands of players
and millions of spectators each season,
but when it comes to actual players,
golf unquestionably has more than
baseball This is true because there
are no age limits or weight limits In
golf. A great many people play golf
to make weight, but If they had to
make weight to play-well that would
be different.
There are approximately 1000 golf
courses in this country. This number
does not include the links laid out on
many private estates. There is no way
of finding out how many of these there
are. If it were possible, the total num-
Der of courses would be greatly in
creased.

FAMOUS SWIMMERS IN NAVY
McGiIIivray and McDermott of Illinois

Frank w. Blankley of the Illinois

that Perry McGillivray of the Illinois
A. c., and holder of several swimming
records: Mike McDermOtt of the same

Hamilton club of Chicago have enlist

Blankley says special invitation

ner of means. With a training limit
of so days, it is up to theS players to
present themselves at training camp
in good condition. No time can be
wasted in removing the superfiuous
collection of adipose tissue accumu-
lated through the easy winter months.
The athletes must do their own reduc-
ing at home.
Other ball clubs are to follow the
scheme, and letters are going all over
the country notifying the athletes. of
the diamond to be up and doing. They
will have to start exercising in home
gymnasiums, or if none are handy they
will have to improvise training quar-
tiers for themselves. 1t is hoped by
this means to get in at least two weeks
of work which ordinarily is done at
the clubs expense in soma southern
training camp.

Lesson in Geography.

Readers of General Allenby's dis
patches, unfamiliar with the peculiari-
ties of the Dead sea, were not little
puzzled at his description of British
airplanes flying four hundred feet be-
low the sea level. But reference to a
geography brought the information
which solved the riddle; the Dead sea
lies 1892 feet below the surface of the
Mediterranean, so that airplanes sail
ing four hundred feet below sea level
were still at an elevation of eight hun
dred and ninety-two feet. Lessons in
geography abound in the papers now

During the early part of the winter
the number of submarine raiders at

to maximum of eighteen. 1t was then
expected. however, that the Germans
