R ALL MAGNATE
WAS GREAT
GR|DMAN

Col. James A. McCrea, vice
president of the Pennsylvania Rail-
road in the Central region, who
died on Wednesday, was one of
the greatest guards who ever played
at Yale. For four years he was
on one side Of center, with Hickock,
another wonderful guard on the
opposite side.
In fact, this is one of the few
pairs that played together from
their freshman days to their senior
farewells. Jim" McCrea, as well
as Hickock, were just a mite be-
hind the greatest guards who ever
wore a Yale uniform-Pudge Hef-
felfinger and the late Gordon
Brown.

in the days when beef and Drawn
counted massively. To this they

VIII Defend His Title Over
Home Course at Merton !,
Next Year.

Golf news of Importance drifts out
in curious ways at times. One
would naturally suppose that the
United States Golf Association
would be the first to announce it's
selection of the courses for 1894
championships, but possibly that
body does not believe in the "open
door" policy.
After Max Marston won the ma
tional amateur championship at
Flossmoor last month he made a
statement to the effect that he
would be pleased to defend his title
over his home course at Merton next
year, when he hoped that the
players would have as good a time
and be extended the same courtesiss
and hospitality as was the case at
F1ossmoor.'
It has long been known that Mer-
ion was looked on as a possibility for
the amateur event, as the two eigh-
teen-hole courses there would GER
tainly prove of advantage in run
ming off the qualifying rounds.
Incidentally, an extra day will not
be needed, so that the championship.
instead of getting under way on Sat-
urday and ending the following Sat
urday, will start on Monday and end
Saturday.
That double circuit proposition is
probably what won the plum for
Merton, as it was only as far back
as 1916 that the championship was
last held there.
That was the year when Charles
Evans, jr., was placed in a class by
himself as a result of winning the
open and amateur titles the sarue
season. In the final round he beat

IS DOWNS
AND UPS
JOE LYNCH
Bantam Champions Manager
Calls Him Greatest
Floor Fighter"
BY DAVIS j. WALSH.

NEW YORK, Oct. 20. In view
OF the fact that many are down
but few get up, the record OF Joe
Lynch, bantam-weight champion,
would seem to indicate that he is
one Of our best vertical fighters.
Joseph, it appears, is very up
right man. He often forsakes the.
perpendicular at the urgent behest
OF an opposing knuckle, but &C
cording to all accounts he comes
back like carrier pigeon.
Eddie Mead, the young mans
manager, has compiled a few sour
statistics on this interesting sub
ject and they are herewith passed
along for what they may be WORTH
if anything.
Joseph was down on his shoulder
blades no less than nine times in
a bout with Johnny Solsberg In
Brooklyn. He got UP after the
ninth knockdown and waited one at
Johnny, ending matters rather hur.
riedly in the eleventh round.
In Philadelphia, Hughey Hutchin-
son dropped him with right hand
er on the jaw, but our Mr.. Lynch
snapped right out of it and earned
the newspaper decision at the
finish.
Bobby Josephs likewise scored e.
knockdown at Lynch's expense and
carried the first eight rounds Of e.
scheduled twelve-round bout in Bos-
ton. Lynch won by knockout
in the eleventh.
Jack Sharkey dropped the young
man three times during their first
meeting at Madison Square Gar
den, but Lynch earned draw and
stopped Sharkey the next time
they stepped out together. 5.
Subsequently, Midget s NIL tn
obliged with two, ,knockdowns over
Lynch. The latter, also dropped his
mar twice and got draw. The
Midget has finished second In all
later encounters. \.
Two months ago Battling Reddy
stood over Joseph in West New
York while the referee counted
| four, but according to Mr.. Mead's
strictly impartial review Of the.
situation, Reddy was hanging on
like double chin at the finish.
And, finally. Eddie Siegal floored
Lynch in the second round less
than a month ago in Philadelphia,
but Joseph arose and stopped his
man in the third.
In summing up the case, Mr..
Mead refers to his man as 'sthe
! worlds greatest floor fighter"
Just exactly what he may mean by
that deponent knoWeth not. but we
win venture the remark that any
fighter who can and does get up as
often as our Mr.. Lynch must have .

Ki1nrnick Was Sorry
He Couldn't Make
African Trip

An advertisement appeared
recently in a New York paper
inquiring for a daring, cou-
rageous man Of independent
means to accompany an African
exploration party. The address
given in the ad was near the
hotel where the Reds stopped
in the big city.
Along about midnight Walter
Kimmick, of the Reds, walked
up to the brown stone front and
rang the bell. When the door
opened Kimmick bowed and
said, 81 read your advertise
ment and fulfil all the speci-
fications, but am sorry / can't
get away at present"
Then he bowed himself away
before the amazed listener could
regain his composure.

/ joined the Jackson Park Club
in late August, 1906. in order to
be able to compete in the Western
championship, which was played
that year at Glen Echo, in st.
Louis. I qualified, but was de-
feated in the first round by George
Clingman, a well-known Chicago
golfer.
It can thus be seen that there
was nothing spectacular about my
first year of golf, but it was
enough to sting me with the cham
pionship bee. That winter I hung
up an old mattress in the attic and
practiced shots the cold weather
through. My objective was the In
terscholastic in 1907. In those
days we held the Interscholastic
events early in June. Immediately
after the close Of school.
When the emblems had been
given out in chapel and heard
each football, track or basketball
hero loudly applauded, for a time
wished I had given more atten-
ton to one of these other sports
in which I had shown greater
promise than in golf. The links
still called, however, and think
intuition guided me rightly.
I entered the qualifying rounds
of the 1907 InterschOlastic cham
piOnship with misgiving, but the
next morning the papers gave
big headlines to the small boy
who led the field of youthful
golfers with an 81. I had not
then reached my seventeenth
birthday and was small, thin
and shy of the clothes and golf
equipment.
The golf reporters came out and
seemed to like me for all the
things I lacked, and to their en-
coura ging attitude at the time 1

since been mine.
