City MemOrialiZes
KOsciusZkO's Life

Cracow. Poland, Oct 3O.-tF9-
Cracow Is to the memory Of Tadcusz
kosciuszko what Mount Vernon is to
the memory Of George Washington.
One cannot walk far in this old city
OF the Polish kings without coming
upon some reminder Of the great ma
tional hero whose name kindies more
enthusiasm both in America and in
Poland than that of any other Pole.
Also Served America.
Whether as colonel of the artillery
and personal adjutant to George
Washington in the American War Of
Independence, or whether as leader
Of the Polish inshrrectibn Of 1894
against Russian oppression, he was
one OF the most picturesque figures
of his time. Partisans of Marshal
Pilsudski today refer TO the virtual
dictator of Poland as the second
k0sciuszko," and the imagination Of
Polish school children is tired by CO.
plus references in the textbooks to
the exploits Of Tadcusz Kosciuszko.
The mecca for the visitor to Cracow
is the Wawel, rocky hill on the
left bank of the Vistula. 1t was the
fortified seat Of the Polish dukes and
kings from the very dawn of the
nations history. 1t is thus, AS it
were, the emblem of the Polish nation.
Buried with Kings
One Of the proudest structures on
the Wawel is the cathedral. In its
spacious underground corridors there
is the crypt OF st. Leonard, reserved
for the collins Of the Polish kings
and their families. The only nom
royal national hero to be honored by
burial place alongside Of the kings
IL Kosciuszko.
Every visitor to the cathedral in
spects the treasury in the vestry. As
the priest in charge exhibits and ex-
plains the priceless bejeweled chal-
ices, royal crowns, chasubles, and rel
iquaries, he pauses to point reverent-
" to an old ragged. weather-beaten,
faded, bullet-riddled flag and says,
iApressively:
"This is the flag that Kosciuszko
carried during the American Revolu-
tionary War. America not only hon
osed our revered national hero during
his lifetime by extending. to him the
privilege Of American citixenship, By
s1ttling considerable annual pension
with landed estates and comforting the
rank Of brigadier general upon him,
but to this day his memory is kept
alive by Rosciusxk0 parks and Kosci-
usxko monuments in various cities
Is tie Union"
II the National Museum one also
finds many objects Of personal adorn-
lnent and use worn o. carried by Kos
ciussk6 daring bis lifetime.

Fan Tells Sisler When
to Yank Hurler Zachary

All the repartee in baseball is not
confined to the active participants In
the game. Many fast one is hurled
from the grandstand, relates Billy
Evans.
Prior to the final series of the
season with the New York club, Mana
ger George Sisler had rested the vet
eran Tom Zachary for week, so he
would be in the best possible shape
to tame the Yankees.
All season Zachary had been very
successful against New York and Sis
Ter figured the weeks rest would give
him an added advantage.
Zachary early showed that he had
far more stuff than usual, but lack
of work had played havoc with his
control.
In the first three innings he walked
seven of the Yanks, escaping dam
age until the third because of some
fine work in the field.
After Zachary had filled the bases
In the third and Manager Sfsler
walked over to the box, apparently
having decided to take him out, some
wag in the stand must have con-
WINGED him that was the thing to do,
when he shouted:
Say, Sisler, l thought the Big
Parade was a motion picture"

Professional Football
Will Never Hold Public

professional football will never
have the hold upon the American pub
lie that the college game has," said
Bill Roper, Princeton coach.
"The college players go into the
game and give everything because of
sentiment for their alma mater" said
Roper. "The professionals play for
money, and players will do more for
sentiment than they will for any ma
terial gain"
Touching on the recent break be-
tween Harvard and Princeton, Roper
said. "It is an Ill wind that blows
nobody good" and mentioned the
game between Pennsylvania and
Harvard.
Harry Stuhldreher, Villanova coach
and former All-American quarterback,
said: you're not hearing so much
about my team. We haven't broke off
relations with anybody, and haven't
got any funny looking elbow pads"

No Female Allo,oed to
Enter Before Midday

In some parts of England they used
to bar the doors to prevent any fe-
male visitant entering the house be-
fore midday on New Years day. The
FIRST footer," as the first visitor was
called, must bring with him something
In his hand, such as shovelful Of
coal, and so comply with the message
Of the old Jingle:
Take out and then taxa In,
Bad luck will begin;
Take In, and then take out.
Good luck comes about.

league star, has been signed by the
Rochester club, of the International
league, to play second base next sea-
son.
Meanwhile will return to the man
ager who had much to do in making
the rabbit" a star. 1t was under
George Stallings, manager of the
Rochester club, that Maranville broke
into the major leagues. The "Rab-
bit'' was with the Braves in 1914
when they won the National league
pennant.
Maranville's last major league club
was Brooklyn, which obtained him
from the Chicago Cubs last winter
through waivers. He is thirty-four
years old.

To Consider Important
Changes in Race Rules

Important changes in the rules gov
erning harness racing will be consid-
cred at the meeting of Grand Circuit
stewards to be held at Lexington, Ky.
One is a proposed rule that would
classify horses on the basis Of their
winnings, instead Of by time records,
a system long in vogue.
Some members consider 1t likely
that Detroit and Grand Rapids will
return to the circuit next year, In
which event the big league Of har-
ness racing will be restored to its
former scope. Cleveland, Toledo,
Syracuse, Kalamazoo, Mich; Indian
apolis and Lexington are the other
members that are practically as
sured.

Heilmann came to the Tigers In

in a row. Since the big fellow joined
the club Detroit has got as much as

Halls Mostil as Best

Eddie Collins, In his day one of
games greatest base runners, regards
Johnny Mostil of the White Sox as
the best base runner in the American
league. Mostil is very fast and has
sturdy pair of legs-hardly the type
Won would expect of an expert base
runner. The Chicago speed merchant
has only one fault; as yet he has not
mastered the art of getting as good
a lead as he should. Often the loss
of one step is the difference between
out and safe at second.

BOXING CROWD
MARK TO STAY
Another Turnout of 100, 900
Not Probable.

Gene Tunney and Jack Dempsey
established record for gate receipts
and attendance for boxing which will
stand for many years to come,
Chances are none Of the 100000 spec
tators who witnessed the champion
ship fight in Philadelphia will live to
see this mark surpassed.
The Tunney-Dempsey fight was
what boxing promoters call natural.
Dempsey for ten years had been one
of the most colorful and spectacular
fighters the heavyweight division ever
boasted. He battled his way to the
top by knocking out his opponents In
short order, and with the exception
of Tommy Gibbons bowled over all
challengers after he assembled the
throne.
Tunney, on the other hand, was
boxing product of the A. e. T. He
first became interested in boxing while
serving with the United States ma
rines in France. Gene displayed nat
ural aptitude for the fistic sport and
at the advice of athletic directors
launched upon a professional career
after being mustered out of service.
After plugging along for years Tun-
ney became a logical contender for
heavyweight honors by disposing of
Georges Carpenter, Tommy Gibbons
and BARLEY Madden.
1t was only natural that there
should be widespread interest in a
fight featuring a former service man
and a champion whose war record
was the only splotch on his pugilistic
escutcheon.
Philadelphia, celebrating its Sesqui-
centennial exposition, proved an ideal
setting for the championship battle.
News of the fighters training, Tun-
ney's chances and speculation on
Dempsey's condition was further aug
mented by legal entanglements which
threatened to stop the contest.
Threats of Jack Kearns, B. G. Glenn
ents and Paddy Mullins to prevent the
fight served to give the affair added
publicity, with the result that the pub
lie paid $1,SO0,O0O to witness the
struggle, to say nothing of spending
another 81, 100000 in railroad fare and
hotel expenses.
With Dempsey passing from the
picture there is not another fighter on
the heavyweight horizon capable Of
duplicating the Philadelphia gate with
Tunney.

THE NEW YEAR
BY KATHERINE EDELMAN

=
a MOTHER year has passed
"A into the great sea of time.
Twelve short months ago 1t was
mine to do with as I chose-to
mold into the kind Of a struc-
ture that I would make-but to-
day 1t is gone from me, and the
thing that / have made Of 1t
shall remain for aye. / cannot
even change one word of the
writing that I have stamped on
its pages; cannot win back
even one moment Of 1t for my
own.
But though the old year Is
past and gone, though It's mis-
takes and its weakness are no
longer mine to rectify, there Is
today another year opening be-
fore me, a new and shining year
that is all my own. Every page
of 1t CLEANS snowy white, there
is not blot or stain anywhere,
1t Is all mine to do with as /
will. All through its hours there
will be opportunity for me to do
deeds Of loving service, to speak
words of cheer and kindness, to
knit more closely the ties OF
love and friendship that are
now mine. There will be oppor-
tunity, too, to forge little bit
ahead In life's race, to do my
allotted tasks a little better
than / did them last year, to
keep my eyes and ears open for
anything that would lead to my
happiness and benefit.
I know that I Will pass by
many Of these opportunities and
aids for happiness If my heart
is filed with ceaseless repinings
for the mistakes of the past,
with continued murmurings on
what the present is giving me
or with dread and fear of what
the future might hold. These
things would surely dull my
vision so that I would be unable
to see or hear many Of the good
things that might be awaiting
me; they would close my heart
so tightly that all the host OF
pleasures that love and friend
ship bring would be denied to
me,
Therefore, I shall 60 into this
year as If 1t were indeed a new
life. I shall leave behind me
all that keeps me fretful and
complaining, all that keeps me
dissatisfied and unhappy. I shall
believe and know that this New
Year holds many precious gifts
for me and that l shall surely
find them IL I keep my heart
and mind open for their re-
ception.
