MANLINESS UNDER RACE
PREJUDICE
Rev. A. L. Scott in Southwestern
Christian Advocate

The first duty of the genuine man,
to my mind, is not to whine, but 10
ACT. One subtle harm that prejudice
may do is to create a chronic sense
of wrong which gives rise to an ex-
aggerated, morbid sensitiveness. The
victim Of prejudice, if he be weak
ling, is too apt to ascribe every incon-
venience and every failure to that
source; to become thin-skinned and
defiant; to lose bis clear, unbiased
judgment; to fall victim Of the mania
of persecution. He minimizes the
abundant good will that surrounds him
on all hands; he becomes sorehead,
plagued with suspicious harborings
and complaints, whose injured vanity
and smarting wounds obstruct his use
fulness by crowding out every other
consideration.
To brood over ones wrongs is to
fall into one of the worst mental dis
eases, disease which does more than
simply put an ashen pail over Gods
fair sky, but harms US most by making
us pity ourselves, and robs us Of two
of the greatest things in the world,
namely, the capacity to love mankind
anG the joy of service. Let US not
permit the consciousness of prejudice
to blur our sight and envenom our
hearts; let US fight with ourselves to
preserve our moral balance, our sense
of proportion, our objective, unbiased
judgment, our wholesome instincts Of
fellowship. Do not allow the little
cloud on the sunlit horizon to be mag
nified by the jaundiced eyes OF fear and
sensitiveness until to the morbid fancy
it overcasts the sky and eclipses the
sunlight.

Veterans VIII Lead.


"HE veteran pitchers, johnson,
Coveleskie, and Ruether, will
again lead the teams de-
Tense, but they will have several
likely supporters in Ferguson, Og-
den, Ballou and Fred Marberry.
It is quite possible this sextet
will do practically all of the
pitching during the coming season.
Johnson is a well-oiled piece
of machinery. Given good health
and minimum of accidents, Bar
ney should glisten again as of
yore.
Dutch Ruether, is no old man
and working with the confidence
he showed last season, should win
more games than he loses.
Coveleskie, was admittedly tir-
ing last season under the strain.
He seldom had much of a margin
in his favor, it may be recalled,
and this gave him more work
1t is possible that the team NAV
give more runs this year, which
would send him down the line a
winner.

Both Should Shine

DOTH Curly Ogden and Alex
ID Ferguson should shine this
season. Ogden pitched him
self into condition in Chattanonga
and, on his return to the Griff-
men, impressed Bucky Harris
most favorably. Bucky predicted
a great year in 1926 for him.
Given plenty of work, Ferguson
is winning pitcher. He has the
proper temperament for a pitcher
and, liking his SURROUNDINGS in
Washington, should prove most
valuable to the champions.
Young Ballou is a horse for
work and will share relief duties
with the giant Marberry. It is
possible that he may start a few
games now and then, Bucky Har-
ris banking considerably upon him
for the future.
Lyle, Kelly, Zachary, Thomas,
Smith, Morrell and Humphreys
are all puzzles. 1t is whispered
that Zachary won't be with the
champions this year, going to St.
Louis in deal bringing Joe Bush
to the Capital. This has been
officially denied, of course, but
that's nothing to worry about. If
Bush comes hereshe will be added
to the veteran trio carrying the
brunt of the load on the mound.
The first exhibition game has
been arranged for March 6. The
pitchers will begin working out
on February Is, three weeks be-
ing considered sufficient to enable
them to toll for three innings
against the Braves.
No, it won't be long now.
The Washington times. [volume] (Washington [D.C.]) 1902-1939, 1926-01-12

There are seven OuLIlel06TS
with the club, not counting Lei
bold or Veach. Sam Rice and
Goose Goslin, of course, are fix
lures. Joe Harris is such a val
liable batsman that he is certain
to be retained for occasional duty
in right field and first base. Tex
Jeanes, Maurice Archdeacon,
Cowboy" Jones and Earl Nc
Nicely form quartet of strug-
Cling candidates.
Tex Jeanes reported late last
season from the Birmingham
club. Because of the warm race
between the Griffs and the Mack
men he got little opportunity to
show his stuff. 1t is possible
that he will flash to the front
this spring. If he does, ,Bucky
Harris will be glad, for Jeanes is
a righthanded hitter, a jewel in
these days of southpaw batsmen
among the gardeners.
Maurice Archdeacon, obtained
in the draft from the Baltimore
Orioles, is an experienced player
with Chicago service. =, A few
years ago he was considered the
fastest thing on two legs in the
major leagues. His status with
the Griffs is a mystery. He hits
from the wrong side of the plate.
Cowboy" Jones may never reach
Tampa, being sent to Nashville
in part payment for Lefty
Thomas. He impressed Clark
Griffith by his hitting against the
Washington pitchers at Mobile
last spring. He started off like
a murderer in the Southern As
ISOLATION race, but faded away
with the hot weather. He is
young and string may be at
tached to him if he is sent back
for more seasoning.
Earl McNeely is expected to
try new hitting style this year.
A brilliant fielder and base run
ner, McNeely's light stick work
is all that keeps him from holding
down a regular position in CEN
terrified. If Jeanes makes good
it is possible that McNeely may

International News Service Sports Editor
NEW YORK, Jan. 12.-Will the
nimble Norwegian out Hippodrome
the Phantom foe before the con-
clusion of the 1926 season in track
and field.
This seemed altogether probable
today when it was learned at the
local headquarters of the Amateur
Athletic Union that Charley Hoff,
just in from Norway with
record as long as the beard of
prophet, had been buried under an
avalanche of invitations to COM
pete here, there and elsewhere.
Less than a half dozen bids
awaited the pleasure of Paavo
Nurmi, if any, upon his arrival in
America one year ago. Today, there
were upward Of 80 invitations to
Hoff and the game was young. The
number Of Hoff's appearances
seemed to be limited only to the
time at his disposal.
The invitations on hand came
from clubs and colleges in Los
Angeles, Seattle, Iowa City, New
Orleans, Detroit, Louisville, Balti-
more. Philadelphia, Boston and Port
land, Me. The remainder of the
bidders were from the New York
district.
Some of the invitations were
extended to Huber Houben, the
German Splinter who will arrive
here on Thursday. Others men,
toned Adrian Paulen, the Dutch
runner, or Goodwin, the English
walker. But not one of them
overlooked HOff.
The demand for his services is
all the more unusual in view of the
fact that Nurmi, with all of his
notoriety. had a total of not more
than fifty-five appearances to his
credit after a full campaign of rec
ord-breaking. What will follow
when Hoff nips a few records, as
he seems destined to do, can only
be conjectured.
Thus far he has accepted only a
few invitations. including those of
the Boston Knights OF Columbus
and the Millrose Club here But
before he left last night for Han
over, n. H., to begin training under
Harry Hillman, he expressed the
wish to compete as often as the
limits OF human endurance allowed.
When he does begin shooting at
the records, the execution is likely
= TO be frightful, for the writer has
Pfhe assurance of Lawson Robert
son and other noted trainers that
BOff is just about the nattiest in
d1vtdual who ever trod I'm spikes.
In the first place, he is said to
be a great Snowman, which Nurmi
was not. In the second, he haA the
