became the owner and builtt home for his newspaper in the new Plant building and furnished a modern printing estab- lishment, leaving the management to a man who had some newspaper experi- enca, but who did not prove equal to the business task of making the proposition pay, although no profit was sought by the owner.
 Nearly half century ago there came to town, printer, Hopkins by name. He was a man of attractive appearance, with long flowing beard, and he cut quite figure about the town. Hopkins was fast compositor but cared more for show than he did work. In a short time he became very we'll known, got into so- ciety and used to sing in the choir of the Second Congregational church. He had employment on the Daily Star and used to write favorable criticism of his sing ing, impressing the readers of his fine tenor voice and the absence of nasal twang, and so on. In those days the price paid for composition was thirty three and one-third cents per thousand ems. Hop would set his three thousand in the morning, sell his slip for seventy five cents to some other comp, and then go out for a stroll on the principal streets. His significant remark used to be: What in hell is the good of work
 ing, so long as you have a trade" Hop kins was subsequently press agent with
 the show of Barnums aggregation.
 That remark of Compassion Hopkins is
 applicable to some of the men who have

 his associates have worked hard to make The Telegraph a paying success, but their efforts have probably been not full ly appreciated by the reading and adver.

They're Writing Letters
The other day the Home Sector
hich was the Stars and Stripes over
seas. came out with a beautiful roast
for Jack Dempsey and a hearty boost
, for Georges Carpenter, which has
started some folks in New York writ
ing letters to the New York World.
Here's one:
Sporting Editor. the World.
Like thousands of others who fol-
low sports, I am interested in the
proposed bout between Jack Dempsey
and Georges Carpenter. Know
nothing about Dempsey's record as a
soldier. but I do know something
about Georges Carpenters.
For this reason i protest against
the comparison made in a magazine
called the Home Sector, which seems
to have gained wide circulation. be-
tween the two men.
Having served twenty-one months
In the French army, / know some
thing about Georges Carpenter, hero,
as the Home Sector calls him, and
would advise the editor and writer to
look more closely into his war record
before comparing II with others. 1t
was not quite as heroic az many
would have us believe.
"a VOLUNTEER"
And Here's One More.
Sporting Editor. the World:
"If the A. e. F. had been made up
solely of volunteers there would be
an entirely different question involv-
ing Dempsey's war record. The oppo-
sition Of certain members Of the Amer
lean Legion against Dempsey fight
ing Georges Carpenter in this coun-
try seems to me unfair.
Dempsey. like many thousands of
others, worked in a war industry
which is most necessary in war times.
AS understand, he was placed in the
draft list as an essential OF class 4.
Probably Dempsey could have vol
unteered for service, and by doing so
would have been an inspiration to men
in In his walk of life, as was Hank
Gowdy, who was one Of the first over
and gave honorable service in the
Rainbow division, but that is another
question.
"I was in France for several months
during hostilities, and from first hand
knowledge can say that Georges Car
pentier, as is usual in France, accord
ing to military system, was con-
script. The prize-fighter trained at
Dijon as an aviator and was put in
the Paris defense air corps. So far as
known, Carpenter was never wound
ed.
"I have heard well-meaning officers
and men Of combat divisions in
France numerically criticise men
who were serving in the service OF
supply far, far away from active war
fare. But on the other hand, IL 1t
had not been for the s o no army
could be maintained in the front lines.
"I am holding no brief for Demp-
sey, but before final judgment is
passed his side Of the story should
be told and Carpenters real war rec
ord published. G. II. B.
Alas and alack, this is getting to be
a tough world for heroes!

N WAS ONLY ONE
OF TEAM OF STARS
augusta Also Had Rucker, Engle,
Cicotte, and Cobb Play
ing All at Once.

Eddie Cicotte, the White Sox
pitcher. recently was credited by
Billy Evans, the umpire, az being the
discoverer OF Ty Cobb. Both were
teammates on the 1905 Augusta Sally
League team, Cicotte having been left
in Augusta by the Tigers, who train
ed there the previous spring. Cicotte
then tipped of the Detroit manage
ment to the young jewel. who was
playing the outheld on the Augusta
team.
But Billy didn't tell half about that
1905 Augusta team. No minor league
club, especially no minor league OF
Glass c classification, ever had such
wealth OF embryonic talent.
In 1905 the Augusta team had Ty
Cobb the leading batsman; Pitchers
Eddie Cicotte and Nap Rucker, and
Second Baseman Clyde Engle, who
later came to the Yanks. yet the club
finished only fourth ia six-club
league.
But the freak part OF II all is that
Connie Mack. manager of the Ath-
letics whose team won the American
League pennant that year. had an
option on anyone of the Augusta
players. That was after Cobb had
been sold to Detroit
Having already two crack left
handlers IT, Plank and Waddell, Con-
ME passed up Rucker to take Holmes,
right-hander. who never amounted
to anything in Philadelphia
Cicotte had the best record of tn"
three pitchers. fifteen victories an'
nine defeats. Ruckcr had thirteeI
victories and eleven defeats. Holmes.
however, was the Joe McGinnity of
the staff for ability to work. as he
had thirteen victories ard twenty de
feats He was the player. selected by
Mack.
Rucker then was picked up by the
Brooklyn club, and for over n DECADE
this eft-hander did his bit to lift the
Superbas out OF the second division.
and by the time that Robby led the
Dodgers to their championship in
1916 Fuckers famous left arm had
lost it's skill and residence.

BOB SIMPSON NOW ASKS
PERMISSION TO ENTER

A report comes from the University
Of Missouri that Bob Simpson, the
best hurdler in the world, has tired
already of his coaching job and wants
A. A. U. to reinstate him. He resign
ed from that body a few weeks ago
to become coach of the Missouri track
men.
If the report is true and Simpson is
reinstated he will be eligible to rep
resent this country in the Olympic
games next summer and that means
the American team should capture all
the hurdles.
II he is reinstated he will probably
compete in the Unicorn games at Bos-
ton, February 7, against Earl Thorn
son, for in the b. A. A. games last
year Thomson, who halls from Dart
mouth, beat him in the 45-yard dash
That was Simpsons first defeat in
three years.

GEORGETOWN TRACK men
HAVE TOUGH OPPONENT
Hilltoppers' Relay Team to Be in
Race With Penn Crack Fliers
at Brooklyn.

Georgetown's relay team will have
its work cut out for 1t on January 81
when the team goes up to Brooklyn
to take part in the Brooklyn College
meet. The Hilltoppers will meet
Penn, and there is every likelihood
that Yale, Columbia, Boston College.
and Princeton will compete in the
same race.
The Hilltoppers can hardly expect
to defeat Penn's team. Lawson Rob-
ertson has Maxam, Eby, Gustafson,
Brown, Davis, and Smith back in the
running. As members of the relay
team three years ago, Maxam, Eby,
Davis and Smith created a worlds
record.
If the Georgetown lads make a good
allowing against the Penn team they
will be satisfied. A defeat of Boston
College will give the Hilltoppers
some consolation. The team will be
pointed for the mile race on Jan.
nary 81.

KELCHNER NOW OUT
AHEAD IN TOURNEY
BarteImes Falls Behind in Race
For District Pocket Billiard
Title at Grand Central.

George Kelchner today leads the
District aspirants in the pocket bill
lizard championship match in progress
at the Grand Central.
In a match with Charles Bartelmes
last night Kelchner got going from
the start, and with a game that would
not be denied succeeded in winning
out by 100 to 81.
Kelchner made runs OF 16, 13, 10, 13.
which shows how well he collected
the pills. Bartelmes made runs of
ming with the new leader.
In defeating Bartelmes Kelchner
broke the five-cornered tie for first
place, and now leads by the margin of
a game. Here's how the players
stand:
