Some players go along lNiCe %
well If they have encouragement.
When a boy makes a particularly
good hit or catch he likes to think
that others have noticed IL, ana
sometimes it takes the dfscrlmina-
tion of others to note when good
play has been made, because some
boys are so diffident that they say
little about themselves
The manager of the team shoulr
not criticise the players when there
is a captain. Let all the criticism
come from one source, and when
there is coach, as happens now and
then for some teams of boys, the
coach probably will do the criticiz-
ing for everybody. Not even the
captain will care to undertake much
of it.
shirkers Hurt Team Spirit.
If it is the duty of the manager
to see that the players are notified
when to appear, presuming, of course,
that the manager and the captain
are both one, IL also is the duty of
the manager to find out why they do
not appear IL they miss. their club
appointments. The affairs of the
club must be cooperative ana every
body must do his best if the team is
to be a success on the field. If some
players begin to shirk meetings and
drills and things of that kind the
other PLAYERS will voice their dis
satisfaction and the team make little
headway against it's base ball rivals.
The manager of the team also Sc
lects umpireS He may cooperate
with the captain in that respect but
usually the captain lets the man
ager have the final decision in order
that the other team may not say the
captain has too much influence with
the umpire. In general, when Sc
lecting an umpire for a game it is
advisa BILE to name some one who is
older than the boys who are play
ing, and, If possible, select one who
has had experience.
There Is a. In..a knack in handling
a game properly by an umpire as
umpire who is alert and quick on his
feet, who is ION top of the plays"
and who knows right where TO put
his finger on a rule in case a dispute
arises will be able to get along in
1 game well. 1t is the umpire who
hcSitates and who seems to be de-
batting with himself what he shall do
who loses the respect of the players,
> when managers are looking for
mpires they should remember that
tivity is part of the umpire's need
We'll as activity on the part of the
aver.
The older umpires like to handle
pyS' games as a rule because the
,~ounCSters VII go along and do their
very bast when they have confidence
IN the man who is judging tho plays.
Now and then there is younger
umpire who can handle a game re-
markably well.

Much of Zunas success has been
due to the skilled training of Harry
Coates of the Mercersberg School and
the movement to collect money to
send him abroad with Zuna is not
regarded by its promoters as in any
way a favor to Coates. but as meas
ure that will insure on the part of
the marathoner his best effort in the
Paris marathon event.
There seems no doubt at the pres
cnt time that sufficient funds to en-
able this fine trainer to go abroad
will be forthcoming.
For country that has enjoyed the
material blessings 4the United States
has in the past few years, il is show
ing nothing less than a disgrace that
the Olympic committee at the present
time is facing d financial crisis
When the second payment of S40,
600 on the charter of the Olympic
steamship America was made this
week the treasurer of the committee
went clean down to the bottom of the
safe. Now the committee is practi-
cally without funds to complete it's
work
Various teams are to sail for
France in May, a third and final pay
ment on the charter of the America
must be met. In all, SI50.000 cash
must be in hand within the next six
weeks. 1t won't be unless the various
cities of the country come through
with their quotas. Failure here will
mean national humiliation.
Mai. Griffith. the western conference
athletic commissioner. has good
word to say for coaches in his ath-
letic journal. He holds that there is
a general misapprehension as to the
salaries that coaches of intercoI-
legiate sport receive. Out of $1,000
coaches he does not believe there are
fifteen, if that many, who receive as
much as $4,000 a year. Has any one
ever heard of a coach who made
enough money to retire and live on
his income? If so communicate with
Mai. Griffith. he would be glad TO
know Just who he is.

the Cleveland National League club
was playing a game in a small city
with the club of that city. The reg
ular umpire missed the train, and A
boy only fifteen years of age who
had umpired local games very well
was asked to judge the plays. The
big league players laughed at him
when he came out on the field and
they saw how small he was, compa red
with them, but he handled that game
as If he had been a major lea que
umpire all of his life, and the Cleve-
land players, before the contest was
over, stood at one side and watched
him with interest. When the game
finished the captain of the Clevelands
said that he never had played in a
game which was better handled and
nominated the youngster for a major
league umpire, but the bows Thoughts
did not incline that way.

This procedure would shorten the platform lot and might
