COOLIDGEYS MESSAGE

IN HIS first message to congress
= President Coolidge demonstrated
that he is not a trimmer. In spite of
the fact that the presidential CAM
paign is warming up and already OPP
position to his denomination is devel-
oping within his own party he did not
hesitate to take a definite stand on
the most important foreign and do
nestle problems confronting the ma
ton.
BY his message President Coolidge
has offered himself as target for
the political opposition, both outside
and within his party, but by his cam
dor and his fearlessness he has I'M
doubtedly gained the admiration of
the general public. He has shown
the nation that he has mind of his
own, that he means business and is
to use the soft-pedal for
the sake of political expediency.

Golf Champion
Makes His Debut
AS Movie Actor
BY NEA Service

Los Angeles, Calf, March 10
Like all champions, Walter Hagen,
golfer extraordinary, has gone into
the movies.
For the past month Hagen has
given up the golf game as business
for that of movie actor.
1T is generally believed that Ha-
gems debut into filmdom was to be of
an educational nature. The I'M
preston prevailed that he would
merely show the proper way to make
various shots, also the incorrect
way, and that the pictures would be
slowed up so that every golf en-
thusiast would have a chance to
help his game.
College coaches in football and
rowing have found the movies of
great aid in perfecting form. SLOW
motion pictures are made of the men
In action, and then the faults pointed
cut as the pictures are thrown on
the screen.
There is no reason why such
stunt wouldn't go big in golf, par
ticularly with Hagen doing the
stuff.
However, it is said that Hagen has
been playing the lead in regular
feature picture in which golf PLAYS
only minor part.

What about Jess Willard? Has n,
n chance with Jack Dempsey?
! Those two queries have been free
at me time and again since a return
bout between Dempsey and Willard
has been suggested.
During a recent trip to New York
! Wizards training quarters at Mad
ison Square Garden was one of my
| objectives. l wanted to get the rea
dope first-hand on Willard, wanted
to form an opinion as to his chance
with Dempsey should he again meet
the champion.
l dropped in at the Garden just
as Willard was getting ready to
start his training program for the
afternoon.
Willard in many respects was a
big surprise to me. While he is far
from being in the "proverbial pink
as they say in the fight game, Will
lard is in pretty good shape.
The color of the ex-champ is that
of a healthy athlete; his'eyes carried
the sparkle that bespeaks good con-
dition, and while he carried some
excess fat, the roll that l expected
to see overlapping the waistline was
missing.
Willard says he weighs about 265.
No one has ever seen him get on the
scales to prove it.
In giving out such a weight feel
that the ex-champ is using the Coue
system of weights to arrive at a
given figure. He just thinks ne
weighs that much. think ne
weighs lot more. As matter of
fact 1 would be willing to wager
that he was closer to 300 than 265.
Willard, when at the top of ms
game, was never beautifully mus
cled athlete who impressed you
Neither was Bat Nelson. The arms
of Willard and Nelson show but
little muscle. Strength often lies
deep, not on the surface.
i watched Willard box three
rounds, but it was little more than
an exhibition. He simply toyed
with his sparring partners, so there
was no chance to get a line on him
from his actual work in the ring.
That Willard has made rapid
strides in the last tive months, how
ever, was proved by conversatio on

BROWNS FEEL,
McINNIS LOSS
BY NEA Service.

st. Louis, March 13.-Did the st,
Louis Browns make a mistake in per-
hitting "Stuffy' McInnis to be waiy-
ed out of the American League.
ST. Louis lost the pennant in the
American League last year by the
scant margin of one game. Unoues-
tionably the Browns are one of the
best clubs in the league. No team
has better chance for the 1923
pcnnant.
Odd as it may sound, the one de-
batable spot in the Browns infield
is first base. At that position the
team has the greatest player of all
time - George Sisler. But what
about his condition
just prior to the all-imporfant
series with New York last summer
Sisler injured his shoulder. He
played against New York despite the
advice Of his physician. Had ne
been in form the Browns would have
won the edge in that series and prob
ably the pennant.
The Browns lacked substitute
for Sisler last year. There is some
doubt as to his condition this year,
1t seems that club with chance
for the pennant could have made no
better move to fortify itself than to
take Mclnnis on for the coming
season.

Why Do South, Coast Produce So Many Stars?
Cobb and Chance Tell Reason

Both seemed to have the same
viewpoint. 1t was this:
The more you play baseball the
better your progress. The climate in
the south and on the coast makes It
possible for the youngsters of those
two sections TO play the national
pastime two or three months longer
than is possible in other parts of
the country.
Both agreed that in the small
town baseball was the chief amuse-
ment of most youngsters because
there was little else to do. Also
there was more room to play than
the big city usually affords.
There you have the opinion of two
of the big stars Of the game on why
the south and the coast produce
majority of the stars, and why the
small town boy has better chance
at baseball than his big city brother.
