They save all of their energy for
their profession.
All i'm all, they seem to be
thrOwback to another day and
age when sport was sport and
not another thing. Those win
ner-talxe-alT' days Of the prize
ring are an example. Another is
the old days of baseball when no
commissioner was needed to. set
tie haggling between player and
owner and holdout was un.
known.
Men in those days accepted
money for what they did, because
sport claimed their time ana they
had to live. They were less pro.
fessional in spirit than many Of the
amateurs of today.
Perhaps hockey. claiming popular
attention In America for the first
time, is due to undergo its renats-
sance, just as baseball, boxing anQ
ether professional sports have done.
Most of the leading players seem
to have escaped innoculation with
the spirit of our athletic CONNER
oialism. That is something to b.
thankful for.
