LEARN OF MAN AND GOD
CIaris Adams Tells Class Fear Has
Big Place in Human Contact.

"The more a man learns Of man.
the more a man learns Of the uni
verse and of the law, the more a
man learns of God" Claris Adams,
candidate for the Republican long
term senatorial nomination, said in
an address before the Christian Men
Builders class of the Third Chris

I'm almost every phase Of hui
man contact, where there is dark
ness, there is fear. AS long as we
live in darkness we are creatures Of
unknown fear. Most of our wor-
ries are things that never happen"

| OBERT HELPED
MACK STAR

Walter French, the speed number
of the Philadelphia Athletics, was
really discovered by Hans Lobert.
1t is hardly necessary to say that
the latter, in a Cincinnati, Phillie
and New York uniform, was 60
getter In the National League for
many years.
In his playing days, Hans was
swifter than an enforcement agent
getting to century note. In base
running contest held in Cincinnati,
August 10, 1910. timed and judged
by responsible A. A. u. officials,
Lobert cIrcled the bases In 10 As
seconds, a record which still stands
for a major league performer, al
though Archdeacon, wearing a
beating the figures few seasons
ago.
When Lobert, who went around
the world with the McGraw-Com-
isky party years ago. stepped Oft
the major league lawn he went to
West Point as coach of the base
ball team, a role which he filled
with distinction for a number Of
years.
About six years ago. young
cadet from New Jersey, reported to
Lobert and asked for a trial with
the baseball candidates. Hans
watched him for several days and
got quite a kick out of the prospect
because he saw he was exceptional
ly fast. A swift goer would
naturally appeal to an ex.player
famous for his speed.
Lobert at once took French in
hand and gave him a lot Of in
tensive coaching in batting and
base running. He taught him how
to bunt balls so he could beat the
throw to first. French's only de-
feet as ball player was in ground
covering but that fault has been
corrected since he joined the
Athletics.
It's batting. however. that opens
the baseball scouts eyes as wide as
saucers and French, picked to be
the Athletics regular rightfielder
next season. owes a lot to Lobert
for his quick leap to major league
ranks.
Lobert, by the way resigned his
post at West Point last summer
much to the regret of the military
authorities. He will probably at
tach himself to a big university
within the next few weeks.
