Pearls and Pearls.

TT you were asked to name the most
valuable pearl you would probably
say "a black pearl" You would be
wrong. Size for size and shape Tor
shape the black pearl is worth less
than the white pearl. The value Of
pearl depends on its luster. form, size
and color. Large pearl-shaped pearls
suitable as pendants. are generally
very valuable The pearls that steadily
and consistently bring good prices are
those that are round. white and lus-
trous and suitable for stringing to-
gether as a necklace. Pink pearls
are found so seldom by the pearl
fishers that they have no quotable
value, but usually bring high price.

Cincinnati Gets a.
Miniature TyCobb

The Cincinnati Reds picked off a
sweet kiG in Sammy Bohne if Billy
Burke's opinion of the youngster is
true. Burke is the trainer Of the Sc
attic ban club, where Sammy shows
his baseball knowledge. Burke says
I'm my opinion Sammy Bohne is
greater than any third baseman that
ever wore Coast league uniform.
Why, Cincinnati got Bohne for a song
in giving only S17,5OO for him. He is
worth twice as much as that. I'm
mere to say that in two years he'll be
in class by himself in the majors.
Why, in seven games against the Yer
non Tigers he connected for IS hits,
more than some players collect in a
month. He handled 81 chances with
but one error plus AZ assists. Besides
all that he ran the bases like Ty Cobb
was doing a few years ago. His de-
termination and speed are his greatest
assets"

7lOo Yale Fights
RolU Penn Saturda,
Only One Veteran Seated in the
Eli Varsity Shell for Open
ing of Season.

Yale will uncover its rowing material
for 1921 tomorrow, when the first and
second varsity Fights row the Univer-
sity of Pennsylvania crews on the
Housatonic. Captain Steve Hord is the
only veteran among the regulars, while
the second shell has beaten them in
one or two time trials the past fort
night.
AS the second crew does not possess
the veteran stroke, Ward Cheney, who
has been i'll until recently, its feat of
cutting down the first eight, especially
with Leslie, the former freshman stroke,
setting the pace, has rather upset pre-
dictions
The second eight has a former var
sity oarsman, Charley Payson, in the
waist of the SHE'LL but otherwise it is
made up of former freshman oarsmen.
The makeup of the first crew, as
finally selected, is as follows: Stroke,
Heminway; No. I, Mali; No. 6, Captain
Hord; No. 5, Gibson; No. 4, Martin
No. g. Haldeman; No. ?, Carman; bow,
Whitney coNswain, Carson.
The second eight will probably be sent
against the Quakers in the following
ORDER Stroke, Leslie; No. ], Spencer
No. 6. Payson; No. 5, Cowles; No. 4,
Boocock; No. 3, Russell; No, 2, Pelly ;
bow, DiWorth; coXswain, MADDEN.
Tomorrow also will be the annual
Vale Pennsylvania athletic day, the
baseball mines meeting at 3 o'clock on
Yale Field. The game will be finished
in time to allow the crowd to take troll
lev cars and automobiles to Derby and
witness the boat races.

The coming baseball season should be
interesting and successful. The fans
have not lost faith in the honesty and
integrity of the sport The bumper
attendances at the exhibition games in
the South prove, | think, that interest
is quite as keen as at any time in the
history Of the sport.
The game fundamentally is in splen-
did shape and under inspiration of indie
pendent serni-public control it is bound
to retain the confidence and good will of
the American public.
The National League will begin its
45th season next Wednesday with the
brightest prospects for good race. Re-
ports from the South are agreed that our
clubs have uncovered number of play
ers of unusual promise, some of whom
have already won their way into the
regular line-ups.
[ believe the National League field
will be better balanced this year than
for several seasons. A champion must
always command respect, but l shall be
surprised if Brooklyn wins as easily as
last year-or any othel seam for that
matter. The Giants seem to have been
greatly strengthened. while Pittsburgh
has young club that will bear watch
ing.
[ am sure it will be a great season,
and that New York will see some great
baseball in particular. There are three
wonderfully strong clubs in the greater
city.

laws no decision can be given at the
termination of the bout.
Consequently, the only way in which
Carpenter could win the worlds title
would be to knock out Deapsey inside
the stipulated II rounds permitted under
the state code or for the champion to
lose his title by foul. No matter how
much Carpenter might batter Dempsey
around during the entire II rounds, if
the latter were on his feet at the close
of the SO minutes of actual boxing he
would still be champion from a technical
ring standpoint.
Another unusual angle lies in the fact
that the two boxers are matched upon a
percentage basis instead, of the fiat sums
which it has been Richards custom tc
pay in the past. With Dempsey anc
Carpenter drawing 90 per cent. of the
gate receipts, it is considered likely that
their share will be larger than the $127,-

He refused to commit himself to either

While there has been nothing official
upon which to base the report, it ap-
pears to be the general opinion among
those who have followed the match
negotiations that Jersey City will be the
ultimate choice, all conditions and adj
vantages being equal. This is based up
on Richards repeated assertions that he
desired to stage the bout in or as near
to New York as possible, owing to the
large population from which to draw his
patronage.
1t was this desire to locate the bout
close to a large center of population

fight fan, of some famous fights and
fighters, and will also recall some
pathetic endings, such as the great

Fitzpatrick. Good luck, Kid You will
win sure, it read The manager looked
at the wire and then at the Kid. That's
right he said. L think it's going to be

what fighter that old-titne fighter was.
There was no color line with Lavlgne,
there was no passing up of hard ones
with him; there was no taking. He en-
tered the ring to win or lose on his
merits, and his battles are down IN the
books as the greatest ever fought by a
man of his weight.
Soon the prelininaries were over and
Kid Lavigne the old-tirne fighter, fol-

that west up, and his determined little
face showed a smile. He looked to be
the same old-time fighter as he stood
there bowling to old-time admirers who
sat at the ringside. Erne followed i'm
mcdiately and walked over to shake
hands with the Kid. Lavignc was much
smaller than Ernc and looked a feather

BOXER WHO CLINCHES
IS CALLED COWARD

1.-The boxer who goes tearing iEto q

Gals who are unable to find a winner
after lengthy contest show weak
ness which should exclude them from
the pastime," said Jack McAuliffe re-
tired lightweight champion, while fan
ming with a group of enthusiasts the
other day.
"Just lack of initiative. The prop
er sand is not there and they are just
as cowardly as the fellow who does
the clinching and grabbing in a con-
test.
There is a winner in every con-
test. 1t does not make any difference
how close it is, the winner is there,
and he ought to be declared. 1t is not
fair to the boxers, nor is it fair to
the spectators when a draw decision
is arrived at. 1t is all wrong.
'Take the race tracks, for instance,
where, during a season there are 1000
or more races. How often do you hear
of a dead heat? Quite often two horses
may appear to be on even terms, but
the winner is there and the judges
rarely have any difficulty in making
the proper selection.
Boxing referees should sit tight in
their judgment. Even if they err in
their selection l think it is much bet
ter to have tried to do right. l real
ize that the officials here have tough
task on their hands in the clubs where
local prejudice is so pronounced. 1t
may be that some of our officials are
swayed by those yelping, bowling, tin
horn sports who shout their heads off
for a boxer on whom they have risked
few measly dollars.
"It is not with any prejudice that
say this about these officials, but am
afraid that some of them lack the real
gumption to step right up and make
their decision fearleSSly."
