Crowds Fight To See Harry Thaw

New York.-Traffic was damned
when Harry K. Thaw, who came back
to Broadway after weeks absence
at Winchester, Va, emerged from a
cabaret. He spent the evening and
early morning there doing nothing
much but responding to welcomes by
Rialto bellies and slipping ice water
and orangeade. Several hundred curl
our persons crowded to the doors to
see him. He seemed startled and
fled to a taxicab. Curious folk pur-
sued him through Central park, then
left him alone when he returned to
the cabaret. His bill for the evening,
which included So table d'hote din
ners for himself and two male COM
panions, amounted to s35. Of this
amount IS went for tip to the head
waiter, SO to his table waiter and 81
to the hat checker. Chorus girls
amused him during the evening and
he was introduced to all who took
part in review. He told one girl
she reminded him of Lillian Russell.
Thaw declined to dance, as he said
he had not kept up with the modern
steps. Even an old-fashioned waltz,
played for his benefit failed to shake
his determination not to appear on
the floor. He said he was going to
stay in New York until he had seen
every cabaret.

Most of the foreigners in outlying

MITCHELL'S HISTORY
SHOWS HE'S FIGHTER
neiI Cat of the Army Is Not Swivel Chair Soldier
But Combatant.
B0 NEA Serrice

B1 NEA Seruice
SAN ANTONIO, Texas, Oct. q
All his life Col. Billy Mitchell has
been fighter.
His father, a Civil War veteran
and later a Senator from Wisconsin,
seemed to instill that spirit in him
as soon as ne was able to walk.
He always urged Billy to be a SOL
dier-not "a swivel chair" soldier,
but fighting soldier.
And this hell cat of the Army
has been fighting ever since-not
with words alone, for Mitchell made
a distinguished record at the front
during the Spanish-American and
World Wars.
Hes the poorest spectator I ever
saw" a friend says of him. Billy
just won't watch anything from the
sidelines. He insists on being in
"the thick of the fight"
Won't Stay Buried
No doubt there were many Of his
opponents in the Army who thought
his demotion early this year from
brigadier general ami assistant chief
Of the air service would squelch him.
FIT. Sam Houston at San Antonio
far away from Neutrality-suspicious.
bly, seemed to them an ideal place
to bury" this hell cat"
But Mitchell waited his time and
then when the opportunity came
again struck telling blows in his
long fight to reorganize the military
and naval air services.
Mitchel's demeanor now is not
that of q martyr or Of one whose
aim to create sensations so that his
name may be broadcast from coast
to coast. During his life he has had
more than his share Of publicity.
He feels that it is his duty to do
everything possible to make America
supreme in the air. Always a fighter,
he does not hesitate now to fight for
his convictions, even in the face of
possible court.martial and dismissal
from the service.
Made War Record
At the outbreak ofthe World War
Mitchell went to Europe as an
American observer.
He was the first American officer
to fly over the allied lines. AT ST
Mihiel, where the Americans made
their greatest drive Of the war, he
was in command Of the air forces
the largest aero concentration in the
history ofthe world. lie actively
participated in other big drives and
never hesitated to do actual combat
flying. despite his high command
Decorations from his own and for
eign governments were numerous.
In many respects Mitchell reminds
one of Roosevelt.
Both were fighters and both loved
the outdoor life. Both loved to hunt
big game, Mitchell stopping in India

cooking speckled bass over a camp
fire.
While in Washington Mitchell won
many prizes at horse shows with
his daring riding and thoroughbred
jumpers. Billy is a great rider on a
fox hunt or at a polo match, and his
farm near Mlddleburg, Va, is
stocked with thoroughbreds of his
own breeding.
Mitchell is now 45.
A tinge of gray hair is appearing
around his temples and the Texas
sun has deepened his rudy tan.
But his erect stature and military
bearing clearly indicate that Billy
isn't through fighting yet.

on his honeymoon a few years ago
to shoot tigers. He killed six of the
ferocious animals and his wife two.
Mitchell is one Of the best pilots in
the air service, having set a worlds
speed record of 222.S7 miles on hour
at Detroit in 1922.
But he combines hunting and fly
ing, his planes here being equipped
so that he can carry bird dogs and
guns to isolated sections. A cabinet
in his quarters here resembles a
young arsenal. 1t stores twelve
shotgun and ten rifles.
Fishing is another sport that APP
peals to Mitchell. He has fished all
over the world, but recently, said his
greatest thrill was catching huge
tarpon in Arkansas Pass, Tex.
Often he will go on a long camp
ing trip and no woman is a finer
cook-at least when it comes to

Surprise Expressed Over
Stretching Course From
Three to Four

NEW YORK, Jan. RECONSIDER
able surprise was expressed today
over the action Of the stewards
of the intercollegiate regatta in
increasing the Poughkeepsie dis
lance from three to four miles for
the eight-oared championship race
rowed on June %. The three-miie
distance had been in operation
since 1915, Columbia alone holding
out for the longer route during
the intervening years.
The support furnished the local
institution by Penn and Syracuss
came as an entirely unexpected
move. Cornell, the fourth member
of the association was the only
college to hold out for the shorter
race. Not one of the four chart IT
members has won a race since tie
three-mile distance was instituted,
however. Syracuse won in 1920 over
a two-mile course on Lake Cayuga.

versity of Washington having ex
ercised a monopoly on victories.
Both have been invited to com

COLLETTE
To PLAY IN
BRITISH
Americas Best Girl Golfer
Makes Her First Start
Abroad
BY HOBERT e. HARLOW,
international News Service.

PASADENA-ON-TH Fla,
Jan. 23.-Miss Glenna Collett, Amer
ica's great little golfer, will fulfill
the expectations Of all golfers in this
country on April 20, next, when,
after a number OF successful years
on this side Of the Atlantic, she
will board a steamer for Great
Britain, where, during the last week
in May, she will make her first
start in the British women'S cham
pionship.
Thus the golfing world may have
an opportunity of comparing Miss
Collett, the best in America, against
Miss Joyce Wethered. the best in
Europe. Miss Collett arrived here
yesterday from her home in Provi-
dence, and was out on the links CT
the Boca Ceiga Golf and Country
Club, with Walter Hagen, the Brit
ish open champion, IN the afternoon.
She played a few holes and hit a
number of practice shots and today
will do some serious work with
Hagen, as he is the only American
born player who has ever been sue
cessful against the British golfers on
their soil.
1t so happens that the British
woman's championship this year will
be contested over the sand dunes
OF the famous old Troon Golf Club
links, on the west coast Of Scotland,
where, in 1922, Hagen finished Sec
ond, one stroke behind Arthur
Havers in the British open cham
pionship of that year.

Plenty of Action.

THERE promises to be plenty
of action in the light heavy
weight class in the ring.
Tex Richard believes in hammer
ing away and, with little or moth
ing doing in other classes, he is
planning some real stuff among
the light heavies.
Next Friday Paul Berlenbach
tackles Young Marullo, of New
Orleans. On February 13, Jack
Delaney. of Bridgeport, Conn,
meets Jimmy Slattery, of Buffalo
On February 26 Berlenbach will
hook up with Tiger Flowers, the
Georgia colored boy. The winner
of this last bout will be matched
with Delaney.
If Flowers happens to win from
Berlenbach on February &c, he
will replace punch EN- Paul"
against Delaney. Also, if Marullo
wins next Friday, he will replace
Berlenbach against Flowers on
February &c.
It is bit odd to find so much
activity in q class headed by the
broken-handed Mike McTigue and
the over-cautious Gene Tunney.
McTigue refuses to risk his title
in a decision contest and likes
set-ups. Tunney is collecting easy
money in the provinces meeting
push-overs. And yet the large
runner-up class is attracting more
attention than any other division
in the ring today.

For rlght-handerS TONNE mas
Ed Rommel, Sam Gray and Bryan
Harriss. For southpaws he has
Stan Baumgartner, Fred Heimach,
Roy Meeker, Bob Groves and
RUDE Walberg. There are others,
to be sure, but they don't shape
up at this writing as being class.
Rommel is one of the best
pitchers in the league. Gray
showed the Griffmen a wonder
full exhibition last September on
the eve of their final swing
through the West. Harriss has
never come up to the mark, but
Connie still nurses hopes of mis-
coming through. Connie won't
let the big fellow go. if that
means anything.
Baumgartner pitched excellent
ly last season. Heimach did as
much at odd times. So did
Meeker.
Groves was the star of the Bal
timore Internationals last year
He Is said to have cost Connie
slightly more than 100000 and
his supporters say he will be q
real winner from the beginning in
the big show. Of course, that
remains to be seen, but if he is a
winner, Connie will have a we'll
rounded pitching staff, a most
necessary thing in the major
leagues.
Walberg, a former star in the
coast league, was bought from
the New York Giants and later
sent to Milwaukee for seasoning.
He is said to have improved con-
siderably with the Brewers last
season and to be about ready
now. In that case Connie will
have a big, strong left-hander
capable Of taking his turn on the
rubber.
Aside from his small number
of seasoned players, Connie has
a flock of green ones. They will
go to the training camp at Fort
Myers, Fla, but some may never
be heard from, once they land
there. That is a way with rockies
in the big show.
"NO, Pm not claiming any BEN
nant," says Connie Mack, "but
do think the team promises more
strength than it did a year ago.
1t ought to be a hard team to
defeat"

would have to endure to make that
weight. Besides, he has a lot Of
jack.
Jack Dempsey is merely seeking
to smoke out rivals. His mar
riage with Estelle Taylor may
end his ring career, but that mar
riage is off in the future.
Johnny Dundee, unframed for
months, suddenly remembered
that this French lightweight
Bretonnel, might be a tough egg,
greatly interfering with Dundee's
course in the ring, now that Benny
Leonard is done.
Sports pages will soon be writ
ten by sob sisters, if the athletes
insist on this line of stuff. In
that case this writer will go back
to the city staff and write about
bootleg kings, heroic policemen
(if any,, meetings Of the D. A. R.,
burglars, gunner. opium-smoking
Chinese and hit-and-run motorits.
