CORNELL TO BACK
DOB|E'S SYSTEM
lthaoans Will Give Football
Mentor Every Chance for
Developing Men.
~ BRYAN MORSE.

While Cornell Is expecting great
things OF Giimour Dobie, who 10 TO
handle the Biz Red football team
next fall, graduates and undersradu-
stss are going TO give him the best
they have In order to gain the best
results.
This, in substance. is the purport
OF remarks made by Romeyn Berry.
CornelPs graduate manager. at Frank.
lyn Field Saturday.
I'VE know Dobie Is a system man."
said Berry, and We want TO give him
every possible chance at Cornell.
Dobie has but one hour a day az the
Naval Academy In which to develop
a team. His system did not begin TO
show the best results until the sec
ond year. That's what we are ex-
pectinE at Ithaca.
From last year we will have what
we consider wonderful football ma
terial. Dobie will be given free rcins
and already he has made big hit.
The installation of many big arc
lights will facilitate the development
OF tho football team toward the
middle and last OF the football sea-
son. Dobie will have consid erably
longer time each day with the team
than he did at the Navy and we ex-
pect q great response In football
Cornell men are greatly pleased at
the selection of Dobie. The Ithacsns
believe they now have the great
coaching triumvirate OF the colleges
In Courtney, Moakiey. and Dobie.
or late years Courtney and Nosk-
ley have been turning out winners,
but this Is the least OF their efforts
for their value to the institution
comes In developing athletes and
oarsmen.
Every year Moakley springs sensa-
tions on the track with unheard o.
performers. This year will be no ex-
ception. Courtney's crews have been
known for more than a quarter OF n
century. II Is now up to Dobie with
the solid backing OF the Ithacans and
Cornell men the world over.

WOUNDS BRING NO HALT
TO KELLY'S ACTIVITIES
American Oarsmsn Hopes to Bring
Back Diamond Scull
TroDhy.

To stage a comeback athletically
after being invalided home from the
world war with twenty-three separate
wounds Is a difficult proposition. to
say the least. However, II is not
going to fease Jack Kelly, the Vesper
Club sculler and American titleholder,
in his attempt to win the Diamond
sculls on the Thames, in England, in
July.
The Philadelphia star Is determined
that the big British classic shall come
to the United States this season. For
this reason he has started training to
be in the best possible condition when
the test comes.
Like many of his brother American
athletes. Kelly enlisted at the out
break of the war. He sa- service in
many of the big engagements, with
the Canadian OUTFIT that he Joined.
A few months before the armistice
was signed the American champion
was sent home an apparent invalid
for life. He made q marvellous recov-
cry and again took up sculling. with
the result that he believes himself
able to make q strong bid for the
worlds greatest sculling trophy.

The omnigerent Al schacht shot up
a puny fly for Babe Ruth. II looked
soft. so Charity hung closely to nrst
and Elierbe stopped half way down
10 third. BUT BABE DROPPED
THE BALL.
Now for the nrst bone. Enerbe put
down his head and rushed back to-
ward second. Charity set out for
second. Ruth picked up the ball and
easily forced the Grifts' backstop.
Thinking somethh g wrong. Ellerbe
suddenly turned around and dug for
third. Pratt, who had handled the
ball at second hurled II toward third.

walked OF toward the Yankees

make a speech or something.
susdenIy Ii Dawns on Hin.
Peck, who took the peg at third,
had tossed the ball down on the
ground, believing the third out had
been made, though he had not tagged
Ellerbe, which was necessary to re-
tire him.
The fans were yelling. The Grins
were yelling. The Ysnks were yell
ing from the bench. The only sane
folks there were the inhabitants OF
the pest, box, especially Sid Mercer.
who was borrowing q match from
Frank Saffel and seeking Information
as TO the whereabouts OF a quart O.
likker.
And all the time Mr.. Ellerbe stood
right there on the grass back OF
third, looking at Ward and Peck and
Lewis and-oh, an everybody.
Finally. Peck picked up the ball
yE
as IL the latter might be a Red toting
a bomb. Then he got within three
feet of Mr.. Ellerbe. Then the heroic
Peck leaped right at Mr.. Ellerpe. He
tagged him. Mr.. Ellerbe was out,
making the third out for the frame
and ending a most mdicrous situ-
alton.
And then some folks say that ball
players think!
Mr.. Al schaeht Tsiis..
Mr.. AL Schacht did the toiilng for
the home boys on the hill. Yes, and
he did darned good job. He had
perfect control, worked the corners
admirably with his change OF pace,
and, speaking generally, looked like q
million dollars OF pre-war worth.
Aaron Ward famed twice. So did
wally Pipp. Battering Babe Ruth
got one hit. a single to center. but on
three other occasions gave the right
field fans pains in their tummies.
Roger Peckinpaugh didn't get a smell
of a hit. Mr.. Schacht must have
laughed himself sick on the bench
between innings. He has a sense Of
humor, we understand. In that case,
he must have laughed. even IL he
didn't become i'll.

BUD RIDLEY PROMISES
TO HAVE GOOD FUTURE

Out on the Pacific coast they have
discovered a featherweight of great
promise. Bud Ridley is the name of
the youngster whom the fans OF San
Francisco think will fall heiY to
Johnny Kilbane's crown.
Ridley Is more of a bantam than
featherweieht as he scales 11S
pounds, the same weight as Cham
pion Pete Herman. Ridley Ia so good
that he does all his fighting in the
heavier division. He frequently con-
cedes as much as ten pounds and new
er has met with defeat.
Ridley intends to come East next
fall. BY that time he will be a full
fledsed featherweight, as he is grow
