GRAFTON CHOSEN COACH
Former Major of Field ARTILLERY VIII
Direct Athletics Mt Davidson
College Coming Season.

DAVIDSON, y. c.. August s.-David-
SON has just signed Major l. B. Cray
ton. OF Charlotte. as all-around coach
to succeed Coach Fetzer, who goes 10
the North Carolina Agricultural and
engineering to take charge OF ath
letics there.
Major Crayton graduated at David
son In 1915. and while in college made
an enviable record as an athlete. After
his graduation he went to the Fish
burnc School. in Virginia. and was re-
markabiy successful in turning out
winning teams during his stay OF two
years. 1t is quite a coincidence that he
succeeds Fetzer there. and is now fol-
lowing him at Davidson.
Crayton was first lieutenant in the
One Hundred and Thirteenth Field Ar
tillery when the regiment went to
france. but his qualities as a leader
were SO marked that he rapidly rose
TO the rank OF major. This success in
the army argues we'll for his getting

Davidson and her alumni are most
enthusiastic over the fact that Major
Crayton VIII be at the head OF the Red
and Black teams, and nothing but
optimism prevails in the PRESBYTERIAN
camp. Every indication points to n

CHICAGO, August o. There were
many amusing incidents at the Jess
Willard-Jack Dempsey fight at Toledo,
Ohio, July I, and some OF a more Sc

happened at the big arena after the
championship had passed from Jess
Willard to Dempsey. Previous to the
match, Willard was followed about by
boys. young men, old men and women.
His tremendous size seemed to create
that awed feeling among the people,
and he was looked upon as something
superhuman.

OLYMPIC GAMES IN 1920
Famous International Athletic Meet
VIII He Held In Antwerp,
Belgium, Is Decision.

NEW YORK. August e.-The inter.
nnational committee has scheduled the
olympic games for September 1874
and has assigned them TO Antwerp
Belgium. But there is no certainty
mat the games will be held In fact,
be postponed.
British sentiment, which has been
mildly antagonistic to the proposition,
turned absolutely against 1t when
american athletes swept track and

point out that America has not only

TED LEWIS HAS FOUND
NEW HEAVY CONTENDER

A new contender for heavyweight
honors looms on the horizon. He is
Capt Roye Rice. just returned from
France with the s7th Division. Capt.
Rice came through unscathed in sew
eral battles with the boche.
The Army officer is at present at
Camp Upton, where he is assisting
Ted-Kid Lewis. the world welter-
weight champion, in the boxing actiy-
tiles at the cantonment. The captain
organizes the squads, while the title
holder instructs them.
In the last few days Capt. Rice and
Lewis have engaged in several bris-
Ting bouts. According to the weller
king, the officer shows latent posi-
bilities with the gloves, and with
careful grooming should develop into
a real topnotcher in the heavyweight
realm.
Capt Rice towers six feet two
inches, but scales only 295 pounds. He
is a quick puncher and terrific hit

the ordinary club is always the

Ed Walsh stands out as one pitcher
who terminated his major league ca

would have been the case under
Walsh for his failure to be still pitch

For years Walsh was the big ace
of the Chicago club. His presence on
that team undoubtedly made II pen
nant contender for years. 1t is the
desire of owner and manager TO win
and if one man stands out as the diff

that one man is certain TO be used to
the limit to bring about success, If he
