of comrsdeship. saw Il in France
among hundreds OF thousands I see
IL here every day among a few score
of men.
The war taught men in the ranks
to help each other. To teach the
inexperienced. To make the way Of
the plodder little smoother and
easier. That's why the oId-timers
Of the squad are helping the young
sters. the newcomers Gone 10 the
desire for horseplsy or haEing. In
stead there has come the realization
that the youngsters are going 20 be
efficient a whole lot sooner IL they
are made to understand that base
ball playing is a serious business
and that the more they know the
better players they will become.
In talks with some OF the players
and others IL was learned that the
war has. through the discipline

to merely be in good shape during
the playing season. +-'
When the Cubs arrived at Avalon
recently for the preliminary work
outs il was found that most Of them
had been through some sort OF
work. or exercise during the winter
and practically every one OF them
was in tiptop shape within two days
after light workouts began. In the
old days many of the men were

Big Field Will
Face Barrier in
Tia Juana Derby

TIA JUANA. March 19.-The Tia
Jusna Derby will be the fixture to
be raced for here next Sunday aft
ernoon; the distance is a mile and
an eighth. with a 5000 purse be-
ing offered by President Coffrotn.
This is the inaugural running OF
the Derby, a clash which will be d
yearly Western feature.
The field of starters promises to
be an extensive one, with Martin
A. Noonan. the Maryland colt, IN
the barn OF c. Koehler, holding the
distinction of public favoritism.
Crack O. Dawn and Dark Friar, a
Kentucky team, running as the
Goodloe and Woodford entry; key
T., Polythia, Hyanpom. Anna Wood
and Catalan, the Nevada Stock
Farms Western bred pair: Billy
Lane, Alcatraz and Omer X, BuX-
toms entry, and Gwendola are con-
sidered as probable starters of Mar
tin A. Noonan.
Racing was resumed on this
track last Sunday after almost
three weeks of idleness. The goal
is the 125th day, seventy-nine of
which were run previous to the
temporary shutdown necessitated
by the establishment of Mexican
passport restrictions. There is a
more than even money gamble that
an extension of twenty-five days
will be applied to the present meet,
all depending on what occurs be-
tween now and the first part Of
May.
Notifications in the passport wise
charge made by Senior Luis de Oca,
consul general of Mexico, sent here
to investigate border conditions,
was what brought about con-
tinuance of the racing.
1t is expected the whole border
will be thrown wide open in a few
days when the American order do
ing away with passports to Mexico
goes into effect and the Mexican
government acts on the same. I'm
til that time, however, the thor
oughbreds will perform as before,
the present arrangement working
quite satisfactorily with the jockey

War Shows Its Effects on 4
Training Tactics of Cubs

PASADENA, Cal. March 1s.-The
war has wrought q wonderful
change in the training tactics Of
the Chicago Cubs. who have been
getting into fine shape here ana
over at Avalon. Catalina Island.
A few years ago II used to be
the custom in some training camps
and the Cubs were no exception
for the veterans TO haze the
rockies and make life generally
miserable for the newcomers for
several weeks.
II seems that the older players
believed the youngsters should be
made to regard the ones at the top
OF the ladder with considerable
awe.
This year an entirely different
spirit prevails in the Cubs camp.
Imagine, IL you can. you faithful
fans. the sight Of Big Jim Vaughn
or Alexander. ''the great" together
with "BiIl" Killifer. the star
catcher. struggling patiently with
a rookie" pitcher for hours at
time to show him the inside stun"
that famous moundsmen are sup
posed to acquire only after years
on the slab. But that's what hap
pened at Catalina Island and is hap
pening here.
And where. you may be thinning.
does the war come in?
Well. according to John J. Fvers.
new manager Of the Cubs. IL is this
way. It's Johnny who is talking.
The war developed a great spirit

America and went to Paris. He Wis.,
tied London frequently. England
got too much of an eyeful of him
and made him move along.
willard Would Have Made EN-
Stare.
Looking back into American his
tory. the only American heavy
weight champion I remember who
never did invade England and Eu-
rope was Jess willard. Liz Jess
stayed at home. But il he hadn't
happened to win the title during
the war. when England and France
were no place to visit, he'd have
gone over there, too. And, believe
me, Jess could have given them IN
eyeful. They haven't seen any,
thing like Jess in England since the
time of Guy, first Earl of Warwick,
who was eight feet tall without
socks (not having any socks in
those days) and was reputed to
swing a wicked right.
Well. even II a few other Amer
lean champions have crossed the sea
none Of them ever carried a record
like Jacks. We can't exactly COM
pare the fighting abilities of Demp-
sey and Jim Jeffries. but Dempsey
is undoubtedly the worlds one
round knockout king. Fulton,
II as seconds; Morris. one punch;
Willard. actually beaten in one
round. although a timekeeper's fiiv.
yer let him go three. Some record!
When the Carpentier-Dempse
match was made Dempsey turned to
Carpenter and said:
George. when this is over I'm 60
ing to France to visit you. / want
to see your country"
Sure" said Carpenter. "in the
ring-we do our best-after, we
shall always be friends"
Sure, George" said Jack, that's
1t. In the ring well fight the best
We know how. Afterward-no hard
feelings-we'll be good friends,
eh?"
Dempsey may be planning to drop
in and have a friendly chat with
Georges. see the baby and perhaps
shoot a game of golf. Sounds funny
when we remember how old-time
champions used to blackguard each
other. But times change. Fair pIay
and sportsmanship are the biggest
part Of the game today.
