BY POLLY HY.


Coach Ashton OF Wilmington High.
had the track athletes 60 through
some trial events. yesterday after
noon at the Tenth street reservoir
where they have been pracucing.
This was done TO select the material
for the varsity. Although there was
no exceptionally good time, the Gin
der FATHERS did better than in a
number OF the events. considering
the time OF the season and also the
track conditions.
Seven OF the quarter-mile candi-
dates we're clicked. the six best to
be chosen TO represent the Cherry
and White at the Penn Relays.
Captain Jacobson turned the best
time for this event and was closely
trailed by Rennie. The runners were
timed one at a time and while some
OF them were handicapped by the
lack OF regular pace others didn't
have the form. The six men who
turned the best time and will likely
participate az Franklin Field. are:
jacobson. Rennie Alexander. Hugh
BATHS and Fallen. These men Will
be carefully tutored in the next two
weeks and II any OF the other men
develop. they will be given another
trial.
Louis Thompson. a Sophomore,
who has been out for the half and
mile-run leads the other candidates
In the distant events and with a 1T
tie more training the diminutive run
ner should come through this seasol
with flying colors.
Meanwhile the Jump and weigh
men were laboring out at Baynar
Field. Baxter shows the best signs o
filling the high jump post by his de
velopment In the short period he Ia
been out. So far he has taken IN
bar in n. 4 in. Boothe has ais
been coming along fine and there
hope that he will be another ma
for the high jump.

Only one inhelder since the days

The exception was DOME Bush. His
judgment OF the speed OF base run

Bush always got the runner by a

bad throw and he rarely ever failed
20 get his man. But a was always
by the same distance.

the ball away quickly. He has
tutored himself to hurry TO the
limit on every play, no matter how

BY BILLY EVANS.

In baseball the breaks go TO the
hustler. The hustler makes his own
breaks.
A hustler runs out every batted
ball. No matter how remote the
chance OF beating the play he puts
everything he has into a dash 20
first base.
The result Is that he hurries the
infield. causes the fielder TO make
the play fast and ultra speed and
accuracy do not exactly go hand-in-
hand
The hustler may be thrown out so
times. but he will find that HIS tactics
bear fruit sooner or later. There viii
be a wild throw as a result OF the
infielder hurrying sometime and that
sometime may win a ball game.
Jimmy Austin, OF the st. Louis
Browns. is the best example that
could be offered as a boost for hus-
Ting.
At 30 years OF age, Jimmy Austin
is still a big Lacquer. For 10 years

whether on the field or bench he
keeps up a constant flow OF encour-
aging chatter.
There have been greater ball play
rse than Jimmy Austin, but no
player stands out as a oetter ex-
ample OF what can be accomplished
by effort and hustle.
The hustler continually makes
the infielders throw when OF bal
ance. He upsets them. probably not
on that particular play, but he I'M
balances them for the succeeding
play.
Bush Timed the Runner.
In fielding there Is the fellow foI
the hustling base runner and he Is
the player who gets the ball away
as fast as he possibly can.
No matter how fast or slow the
hummer. he always throws quickly
