Football, Soccer and Track
Mentors Look Over Their
Material

PHILADELPHIA, Sept. 10
With the opening of colleges and
universities this week and next, the
football soccer, and track coaches
are checking up their spring and
summer recruiting to discover just
how many of the promising prep
and high school boys they sue
ceeded in swaying to their partlcu'-
lar institution. -
There will be disappointments and
much weeping by the coaches when
they discover the particular star
they were after matriculated at
rival college. But one track coach
is happy-yes, very happy. He is
Nate Cartmell, former Penn Splinter
and now coach at Penn State.
For. according to Samuel j. Dallas,
secretary of the Meadowbrook Club,
who returned this morning from a
trip to Penn State, Cartmel1 will
have the services the next four
years of the most promising one and
two-miler entering collegiate ranks
this fall.
The athlete who has chosen Penn
state as his seat of learning is Billy
Cox. the former Mercersburg and
Rochester Institute record smasher.
While at Mercersburg there wasn't
another miller in the East who
could hold his own with Cox. He
established records right and left.
Last winter Cox ran number OF
indoor races for Rochester Insti-
tute, and also participated in sew
eral brushes with PaavO = Nurmi.
Always he gave a good account of
himself with the Phantom Finn"

DUNN ANNEXES
HIS SEVENTH
VICTORY
Baltimore Orioles About to
Grab Pennant in Inter-
national League

Jack Dunn, veteran leader of the
Baltimore Orioles, has apparently
annexed his seventh consecutive
pennant. Toronto recently chopped
into the Orioles margin, but the
race in the International league
ends next Sunday and the Orioles
should coast in.
This season the three class AA
champions will play a round robin
little world series" which may
develop into a pretty big affair,
as the cities involved are ali
good sized-Baltimore. louisville
and San Francisco. Baltimore will
play the usual series with the
American Association champs, and
the winner will then journey out to
California to play the Pacific coast
champions, who this season are
most certain to be San Francisco.
These two series should net the
winning ball players pretty fair
sized cheques, certainly consider
ably more than the big leaguers
drew out of the worlds series
prior to 1909.

French has had a meteoric career
in athletics. When only eleven

Later he attended Pennington

when they had long fights IN
xaIifornia it wa&a common prac-
tice there for promoters to match
young men for forty-five rounds
when as a matter of fact the boxer
was not fit physically to go more
than ten. Such a man as Eddie
Hanlon furnishes a sharp case. He
was fighting in long battles when
a mere child and before he was
twenty-five he was an old man, in
fighting sense. So it was with
frankie Neil, whose father sent
him against the toughest of all OF
them. The boy couldn't stand it
and retired early.
II was the same way with a
lot Of the other California prod
ucts of the smaller divisions, few
of them lasting through any
length Of time or retaining any
sort of form. The big fellows
that came from that section, bet
ter developed and matured, did a
little better. but the fact remains
that one tremendous fight OF a
plIuishing nature is sufficient 10
nut them OH the shelf.
There is a young man in the city
at the present time who is spoken
of as one of the greatest prospects
Of the day among the big fellows.
His name is Ernie Owens. He IS
native of Virginia, but learned
all of the fighting that he has at
his fingertips out in California.
There it was Jack kearns picked
him up and sent him to New YORK
and then shipped him on here.

pretty merry clip and are worse OH
for that reason than the little fell

never amount to anything after
that.
That is why they should be care
full about overwhelming the good
looking and nice-acting Owens.

Consistent Driving, No. i

We have. all seen the golfer
who gets a good drive and a
long one occasionally. But we
also know he is seldom the
player who turns in the low
score. Why? Because he Is
not consistent. To be a good
golfer you must get every tee
shot off wen. / prefer a fair
tee shot every time to an oc-
casional long one. A good
player is a consistent player.
He is dependable.

GOLF TITLE
REGARDED
LIGHTLY
Sanction of Governing Bodies
Would Make World Match
Great Event
By r. d. THOMAS

Jim Barnes, famous throughout
the world of sport as British open
golf champion, today is hailed as
the unofficial champion of the
world but it is doubtful that Long
Jim's all-including title is half as
valuable or holds as much pres
tige as the other.
A gallery smaller than might
have been expected that witnessed
Barnes victory over Willie Mac.
Farlane, American open cham
pion, on the Columbia Country
Club course in the last thirty-six
holes of seventy-tWO-hole series
for the unofficial world title, ap-
peared to regard the contest not
rs a championship event, but prin-
cipally ,as an exhibition by two
great golfers.
And they disappointed few. They
played the brand Of golf of which
only truly great performers are
capable.
But it required time and again
to an observer that the whole
thing could be likened to much ado
about nothing. Jim Barnes and
Willie MacFaTIane might just as
well have been playing friendly
nIatch with nothing more at stake
than a dinner.
And at the same time the
thought persisted that a match
between the open champions of
u MIR
rank in golf equalling the world
series in baseball.
Carrying out the thought, it seem
ed that it should outrank the
world series inasmuch as baseball's
great classic is not truly a World
series but almost strictly an Amer
lean event. Golf is a far more
universal sport than baseball.
Still, little attention was given
the match between the American
and British champions and this
despite the fact that there are
az many if not more golfers in
washington than there are ball
players. 1t is true that baseball is
largely a spectators game, which
golf is not, but just the same the
size of the gallery that saw Barnes
whip MacF'arlane for world
title was so small that it caused
one to wonder over the lack or
interest.
And judging by WashingtOns
attitude, Barnes world title VIII
mean little or nothing to him.
Much less than ZOO fans saw
the morning and afternoon gal
laries.
The lack of prestige Of the con-
test between the American and
British champions was due. Of
course, to its unofficial nature. 1t
was a consensus among golfers
who attended the match at Col
Umbia that it is within the power
of the governing gOlt orglniza-
lions of this country AMI Britain
to make an annual contest between
the outstanding champions truly
great sporting event.
Barnes was easily superior to
MacFarlane although the latter
played brilliantly. He missed
many long puts by an inch. or
so. A trifle more accuracy on
the green's would have made the
contest much closer. AS it was
Barnes won the 72-hoie series by
L. up and II.
In the last thirty-six holes play
ed at Columbia, Barnes used lat
strokes against MacFarlane's Isl.
And after the match MacFarlane
reiterated his statement that it
was his last this season. He will
now devote his time to Kidding
