Lefty Tyler, Inspired by Feat

IEW YORK, January 49,

NEW YORK, January 18.-

championship in 1914 and later

Chicago Cubs in 1918. is on the road
to a come back, inspired by the per-
Torrance of Big Jack" Scott, erst-

Tyler was declared by experts last
spring to be through" as major
leaguer, when he was released after
brief tryout with the Boston Ma

Chicago Cubs, in 1921, after losing
much of his old-time effectiveness
and subsequently drifted about, play

Braves.

TYLER went back to his home in the
New Hampshire mountains, hung up
his glove and stored away his
spiked shoes. Then he read about
Scott and how new treatments had
worked wonders with Big Jacks

WESTERN GOLF EVENT

CHICAGO, January 1S.-Two consti-

collegiate and scholastic track meet

turnout that is wanted for dedica-
tion day. In all probability the gym
naSium. which also is under construc-
tfon, will be dedicated on Farmers

The scholastic games prior to the
war were limited to the high and
preparatory schools of the District OF
Columbia and Maryland, but this year
probably will be opened to all prep
and high schools in the south and
middle Atlantic states. An attempt
VIII be made to draw entries from all
the big prep schools of Virginia ana
Pennsylvania, AS we'll as from Mary
land and the District of Columbia.
Appointment of 'Greasy" Neale as
foot ball coach at University of Nir-
-inia is distinctly a surprise. IT had
been understood from persons closely
connected at Virginia that Neale was
not being considered.
Nca1e, unquestonably is good
GridirOn coach: he should be able to
handle base ball just as capably as
he does foot ball. And certainly his
years of success at Marietta and
Washington and Jefferson indicate
that he should be able to give Nir-
ginia winning teams.
Undoubtedly Neale will find condi-
tions at Virginia considerably differ
ent from those under which he
worked at Marietta and W. and J..
There is not the same emphasis
placed on foot ball at Virginia that
is placed on it out in western Penn
sylvania and Ohio. But whatever the
conditions, here's hoping that Neale
lifts Virginia into a brilliant season
of foot ball.

X THEN we showed up at New
wv Orleans in the spring of
1898 for training / got an
mixing OF what Ned Hanlon was
trying to do in the way of building
up ball club. 1t was very clear
to me that he was seeking youth
and spirit. Up to that time-and
that is often true today-baSe ball
people hesitated to try anything
new.
Veterans can be counted on TO do the
right thing-at any rate, the usual
thlng-and there is a tendency to let
them go along. But managers in this
sense of security so too far. They do
not realize that the old timers are slip
ping; do not see the necessity of young
blood soon enough. In other words, it
IS human failing to follow the line of
least resistance. The work of build
ing is tedious and nerve racking. To
avoid il is human.
Ned Hanlon evidently had made up
his mind to get rid of all these old
IDEAS and spring something entirely
new on the big league. He had been
impressed by the eagerneSS and ann
bition of kids like Jennings and my
self.
So when we arrived at New Or
leans we found another young fellow
Joe Kelley. Joe had come to Balti-
more in exchange for George Van
Haltren, the deposed leader of the
Orioles. Joe was wonderful out
fielder, was fast and could hit. Like
Jennings and myself, he also thought
and dreamed base ball.
The first day of practice Jennings
walk ed up to the plate, stepped into
the ball and smacked il for a single.
Hanlon was surprised to see that he
did not pull away from the plate, as
had been his failing the year. before
We had corrected that fault during
the winter at St. Bonayenture Col
lege.
Jennings had hit but little over 200
but had been retained on account OF
his wonderful fielding. He had the
bad habit of pulling away with his
