Such prestige as the United States
shall be able to maintain this year
will in the last analysis, many think,
be due not to the Olympic authorities,
but to our college coaches through the
land. If the athletic club coaches are
added, there will be not a few who
will be inclined to agree with the
Dry of the sort.
Four years ago at Antwerp Amer
ica was woefully deficient in long
distance runners. This year at Paris
the team is certain to be, and the way
things go there is not the slightest
assurance 1t will not be equally lack
ing four years hence. No centralized
effort to bring. forth distance run
ners: no centralized effort in any re-
spect save in the months preceding
the Olympic games.
In the Scandinavian countries there
appears to have been national
movement to develop athletics since
the last Olympic games, and it is
known not only what her athletes
have done, what they promise to do,
but how they stand with relation TO
the specialists Of other countries.
If the showing of the United states
when the total of Olympic points has
been tablulated is disappointing, 1t
might be we'll if we were to look into
our Olympic system as at present

Willard stayed away from fights for
long time. When he came back in
1923 i am sure that he still had that
spirit of revenge. that he still smarted
under the former talk of having been
a gutter. But the time had passed.
He could not do it. He did lick that
fellow up at the Yank stadium on the
day of the milk fund fight. but when
he went against Firpo the South
American was too strong for him.

Jess Willard knew very well the
stories going around about his hav-
ing quit. He never said IL word,
though The terrible beating he re-
ceived and the unjust cries of quit

stayed away from reporters and went
into SecluSion. He wanted only the
company OF his family.

more humiliation than the public
ever understood. In his seclusion he
longed for chance to get back at
Dempsey. not so much to regain the
championship as to wipe out the
sting of the former defeat. He never
liked the fight game and candidly said
so.
After a long rest Willard quietly
went into training with the idea of
making Dempsey suffer the same hu-
initiation that he had suffered. He
advised with his friends. All of them
We're against his going through with

Fair-minded followers OF the
pastime who honestly doubt that
Harris can adequately fill the bill as
pilot base their fears on his youth
and lack OF experience. Admitting
that some of the most able helms
men the game has produced, such as
Anson. Comiskey. Chance. Clarke.
Jones and Carrigan, achieved their
greatest fame while personally lead
ing their men on the field, they can

but four years, getting away with

Speaker and Cobb. current examples
OF successful playing directors, they
refer to the fact that both have been
superstars; they cite Iris thirtysiX
years and sixteen seasons OF service
and the nineteen campaigns of Ty
who is couple OF summers the
senior OF the Indians chieftain.
"Tco young" is the way they
summarize it. They may be right,
only time can tell, but age and
experience alone provide no guar
antee for success to a diamond
director, otherwise Mcbride still
would be on the job here, and
neither Milan nor Bush would
have had the opportunity of taxi
ing a fling at the managerial
game.
Harris ca,iber is we'll illustrated
by the statement he made when the
subject of managing the club first
was broached to him last week.
Many performers his age, especially
those who had played under three
pilots in as many years, would have
been awed by the great responsible
ity entailed by the job, and. If the
general impression that Washington
leaders are robbed of initiative and
hampered by interference from the
club president were true, promptly
would have declined such a hopeless
task. but Bucky's first expression
was: I'm not afraid of the job

10 date lew comments on the Sc
lection OF Harris as manager here
have appeared i'll papers around the
circuit. but the following, penned by
Burton Whitman. sports editor OF
the Boston Herald. and one of the
ab.est writers i'll the country. indi-
Gates Grifllth's choice has won some
appreciation. Under the caption OF
Griffith Smart in Picking Harris
Whitman says:
The appointment OF Stan Har-
ris to the managership OF the
Senators is smart move bv
President Clark Griffith. Harris
is high-class Young athlete. He
may be considered TOO young"
by some OF the harder boiled vet
eran eggs OF the game. But Griff
rightly rates character, versatility
and poise very highly. and Stan
has all these attributes. Griff
said in Boston carly last week
that he wanted a manager whose
heart interests would be in the
team and in the players, and one
who would stick with Griff not
only for year. but for many
years, and eventually probably
get a real share in the owner
ship OF the club, after the style
of the hold John J. McGraw has
acquired OH the Giants.
Those who thought that Har-
ris would make a good man were
inclined to believe that Griff did
not want to pass over men like
Johnson. Rice, Judge and Peckin-
paugh to single out Stan Harris.
But Griff had the courage Of his
convictions and now we'll see how
the experiment of elevating a
youngster will work"
What measure of success Har-
ris will have in the dual role of
player and manager remains to
be seen, but we believe Judgment
should be suspended until he has
had an opportunity to show what
he can do. Give the kid a chance.
