INCORPORATING
 HAn GREAT YEAR


 Speaking for the motorboat enthu- siast, President A. L. Judson of the American Power Boat association said:
 Tt is likely that the impetus given to sporting events in 1921 will con- tinue and increase during 1922. There are many evidences in the power boat racing world that this will be true. More additional races are scheduled already for the coming season than were held during the past year. This Is particularly true in the middle west, where the enthusiasm over power boat racing seems to be more intense than in any other part of tne country, although there Is evidence of increased interest on both the At lantic and Pacific coasts. Power boat racing in the south also has taken on new life, and all this indicates continued and increased interest dur ing the coming season.
 "This growing enthusiasm for mo- torboating, and all other forms of recreation and sport Is due largely to the reaction experienced after the war during which, naturally, all sport was suspended. People are anxious to play again. which they are doing harder than ever. This is natural human propensity"

 Surpassing Success Of 1927, Is Forecast

clubs In some cases players have been shifted from one team to an other, adding new color, stimulation and power to a club, for a player can outgrow his usefulness by re- maining in one city too long. Spring training restrictions have been re- moved, making 1t possible to send pitchers and other players south for a more \protracted session of condi- tioning, thus raising the standard of early season play.
 Speaking specifically of the Ma tional league, I can say that I sx- pect a closer race than was the case last year. Instead of a two-club race I believe that four or more teams will be fighting for the pennant in 1922. Even with Pittsburg leading for a majority of last season, the attend ance records fell but little below those of 1920. and had the rotation of Sundays been favorable, a new record would undoubtedly have been made. Many young and promising players are being developed in our league and these should prove a strong attraction next summer.
 "Contractural relations with the players will be more harmonious, and there will not be the holdouts which helped to wreck the early season chances of teams last spring. I ex- pect to see better pitching during 1922, and consequently closer games. We are also looking forward to some form of agreement regarding a bet ter drafting system with the minors.
 These are some of the things which lead me to express the opinion that there will be no dimunition of interest in baseball next summer. There are likely to be other factors of importance develop before the spring meeting. scheduled to be held in New York on February If. which will have an influence In increasing the interest in the game.

substantial grounds is shown by the rapidly increasing list of important contests, both intersectional, national and international, which are being added to the 1922 sport schedules In ternational tennis, golf, yachting and track meets are already in the mak- ing; numerous interseetional football games have been carded and there will be wider increase in entries for various national championships, both numerically and geographically, than in the past
 From all sections of the nation comes the report that interest in sport is steadily growing; the forma- ton of new interscho plastic and inter- collegiate associations; wider par ticipation In games; the development, physically. of the youth of the land ard the belief that sport in the broadest application of the word will be growing factor Tn the history of America for decades to come.

 football in 1921 and the overwhelm- ing evidence that the coming season will see the game reaching new rec ords in every department of the sport Is a splendid tribute to the game and those who play It." This state ment was made by Walter Camp. secretary of the intercollegiate foot ball rules committed. i'll recent dis cussion of the prospects for sport for 1922.
 Ut goes beyond that, however" continued Mir. Camp. flor, to my mind 1t is clear indication of the appre- citation of physical fitness and the admiration in which 1t Is held. The lessons learned during the war greatly increased this appreciation, but the admiration for and the desire to participate In clean sport is inherent in the American people,"
 Football, as played by the hun dreds of college teams throughout the country, brings out these qual- ities in manner equalled in few other sports. The game even to the novice spectator Is full thrills and with the rapidly increasing technical knowledge possessed by the thou sands who watch the play I am cer- tain that football will continue to in crease in popularity for years to come. The fact that huge staduims erected but few seasons ago are now unable to accommodate all those who desire to witness the games is the best evidence of the increase in interest.
 This enthusiasm. which also ex- tends to many other sports and games, should be used as a lever to improve the physical welfare of the country at large. A more sane and proper understanding of the phyical development of the younger genera tion-the boys and girls from 10 to 15 years of age-would prove a tre- mendous boom to the nation.

FANS LOOK FORWARD
 TO BASEBALL SEASON

"While the old axiom, Take noth- ing for granted in baseball still holds good, I think that l can safely uredict another banner year for che national game" said President John A. Heydler of the National league. when asked to comment upon the outlook in baseball. "Certainly there are numerous signs which would ap- pear to indicate a prosperous season ahead for the club owners and in- teresting pennant races and play ior the fans.
 ..The past year has, been one 3f satisfaction to both the followers Of the game and those financially in- terested. The major league pennant races developed an unusually close and dramatic climax, and the world series was one of the best in tne history of baseball. There was ? lack of confidence or popularity and the game was well supported in both the major and minor league cities. The selection of Judge Landis Us baseball commissioner, with the sub- sequent restoration and retention tf public confidence In the integrity of the sport, was perhaps the outstand- ing feature of 1921 in baseball.
 Many circumstances enter into a consideration of 1922 prospects. an,i the majority of these make for a con tinuation of popularity of the game. Many trades and deals have bean made which will strengthen various

BOXING GAVE FANS
 WANTED EXCITEMENT

"The American people like excite ment," said Tex Rickard in discuss ing the remarkable growth of sport in the past two years, and the out look for the coming season. This demand for excitement is shown by the manner in which those sports which supply thrills are patronized. Boxing, of course. ranks well to the fore in this category and. while the last 12 months has witnessed great increase of interest, record attend ance and gate receipts, l am inclined to believe that the new year VIII surpass the old in this respect.
 While 1922 is not likely to witness another bout of the international cal ibre and interest of the Dempsey contest I think that there will be an increase in the number of bouts and the localities in which such matches may be held In con formity to the law. Boxing Is not alone advancing in popularity for all sport, so far as l can learn, is on the increase.
 "various reasons have been ad- vanced for this gain. Personally, l think that it Is due to number or causes. The advent of prohibition, with the closing of the saloon, has sent thousands of men, young and old, to watch or play games or con tests such as boxing The relief from the strain imposed by. the war and the growing belief in the benefits of exercise and competition, have all helped to increase the popularity or sport
 IS far as boxing Is concerned, the Walker law has helped the sport wonderfully in New York state, and
 ut la nf- ments in all other states. The new boxers alliance, if it means busi- ness and has no private axes to grind, should be a great boom for boxing If champions could be forced to ie- fend their titles against selected op- ponents at stated intervals, thus giv- ing worthy contenders a chance to advance. it would be another step Tn the improvement of boxing.

DOES A BARBER POLE HAVE
STRIPES?

TN THE old days the barber used to
1 be the surgeon, or blood-letter, as
well as the shaver and cutter OF
hair, for surgery in those times was
confined almost entirely to the re-
moval of blood by means of cut in
the arm or leg.
The round brass ball at the top of
his pole or. sign was originally the
brass basin which he used for lather-
ing his customers who desired to be
ghaved and the pole itself was the
star which persons held while the
blood-letting was being done. The
ribbons (now painted stripes) repre-
sented the bandages used during the
operation-fh white one being the
bandage as it was first applied and
the red one that which was taken of
the wound after the patient was
through. AS time went on, the func-
lions of the barber were. gradually
taken over by the medical profession.
but his pole remains as symbol of
his former glory.
