To Extend
Training Period
AtCampLetts

CAMP LET'S, Md, Sept. 13.
An extended period of two-a-day
training here looms before George
Washington University's football
squad as a result of what Head
Coach Jim Pixlee today declared
diSgustedly was lack of initiative
and slovenly performance. The
camp training, originally sched-
uled to close September IT, conse-
quently may be stretched out until
September % or "a.
Calling the entire varsity squad
on the carpet before the morning
session, "Possum jim" promised a
drastic cut in personnel in short
order unless the players soon mas
tered signals and details of indi-
vidual assignments on their plays.
They have had sufficient time to
acquaint themselves thoroughly
with these things, he charged, but
despite constant teaching have
failed to impress the coaching
staff.
Some of the sophomores who
we're impressive at the start of
training are reported to have
fallen from grace due to slip-shod
performances. Among them, it
was reported, are joey kaufman,
the flaShy Bronx IN. " half
back, and Ted Cottingham, sturdy
guard from Portland, Ore, both
of whom only a few days agn
seemed headed for first-string
berths.
Neither Kaufman nor Cotting
ham were in uniform during
yesterdays Scrimmage although
they did not appear physically IN
able to see action. In the mean
time Bruce Mahan and Andy
Trader" Horne ran in their re-
Spective positions and by excellent
demonstrations gave promise of
supplanting the first-named pair
two weeks from tonight in the
opening game with Emory and
Henry.

Last year the Vols gave the
Tide it's toughest ball game, losing
13 to 6 after having touchdown
called back because of an off-side
infraction. This years meeting
should be one of the national tea-
lures on October 19 and from this
game probably will emerge not
only the Southeastern champion
but the South's representative IN
the Rose Bowl game, providing
Pasadena again beckons.
Louisiana State and Tulane are
supposed to merit third and
fourth ranking at this writing.

1t was a grand noight for the
Oirish, begorra. Not only did our
boy Danno, aided by that "Oirish

that spalpeen of a furrin' Greek
to assume a recumbent position
on the boards, but Jack Donovan,
another gallant Irish lad, gave
that wicked Emil Dusek, one Of
those ungentlemanly Dusek boys,
terrible thrashing though the
match was called a draw.
Emil often leaped out Of the
ropes to protect himself from
mutilation when Irish Jack nexed
his muscles. The Erin ace also
had the better of several ear and
hair-pulling contests.
It was evident by occasional
boos which could be heard be-

the strife of trade and competi.
ton that all things are not
what they seem.
And, as I observe above, none
of these bitter lessons have left
rancor in his attitude. Rather
they have taught him not to be
rash or harsh or to rush pell-
nell, headstrong into business
ventures. That is why he is
biding his time. living a life Of
luxurious ease in an apartment
so spacious he could use roller
skates to commute tween bed
and board. resting back on his
oars for the first time in his
life. doing every day just what
he chooses-mostly golf, and
having to answer to no man.
Only Out at Pasture
Babe Ruth seems a contented
man. He will not remain idle
always. He's just romping at
random, willy-nilly, like a boy
out of school, and sometime
will settle into a life Of useful
ness and productiveness-after
he's playeu little.
He is tanned more than I
ever saw him before. He COLTS
sans hat, something he didn't
dare attempt in baseball, and
the Westc' ,e1ter sun and wind
have polished him off a glazed
bronze.
Ruth has played only one
game of base ball since he
stormed out of the Braves dug
out that Sunday in early June.
Out in Milwaukee he played in
a police benefit game for an
enforcement d epa a r t m e n t OF
which he is an honorary men,
ber.
He umpired one softball game
here in New York not long ago,
and is alarmed at the grip that
sport has taken on the youth OF
the land. He is alarmed it may
wean our boys away from base
ball.
"Where will the young play.
ers come from for the minor
and major leagues if this soft
ball thing endureS. Young and
old are playing it, why in one
city alone, 10000 belong to a
single league. What the hell!

enough shape as is? Gosh, l

Yawkey Goes For Ride
why, loOkit the Red Sox.
What ride they've taken Yaw-
key for. Gee, there's so much
overhead there that If Fenway
Park was filled every day the
teams at home, they'd have a
hard time declaring a divi-
dend!"
Babe thinks the baseball
player salaries are in for ter
rifle cuts, starting next year.
There's got to be revision
downwards. The magnates can't
keep it up. A lot of the parks
are bare. In Chicago, the Cubs,
who have been contenders a
large part of the year, haven't
drawn on an average Of 1000
a day.
"YOu take Washington, Griff
must be in a bad way if its
only baseball he's got to depend
on. Philadelphia is even worse.
In st. Louis rigor mortis has
set in. Only HOrnsby'S shrewd
player manipulating has enabled
the Browns to play out the
schedule. Nobody ever goes to
the park out there"
He doesn't understand yet
how they gypped Solters away
from the Red Sox. He under
stands Griff hasn't got all his
money for Cronin yet and that
st. Louis hasn't got all it's do
re-mi for Newsom either. Gee,
what the hell! He doesn't like
the looks of things at all-at all.

= NS@A4Ss
Do I, in making a phrase,
leave the idea that Babe Ruth
has grown hog-fat in the twelve
and a little better weeks of his
retirement from baseball?
He's Not Hog-Fat
II I do, I err, and hasten
to amend. The man weighs a
trim 220 pounds, several penny
weights meath his playing heft
the last couple of seasons he
was staggering through the
whip end of glorious trail,
no brighter than which was
arched across the baseball
heavens by any man in any
era. In his easement corner of
q spacious drawing room, his
pipe and tin of tobacco on an
onyx pedestal hardly, he gazed
out where the mist was already
lifting from the Swirling waters
below and where shafts of early
morning sunlight were bathing
the white uniformed nurses in
the nearby winding walks be-
meath where they wheeled the
swank perambulators with their
tiny human freight, this great
man of the game seemed philo-
Sophical enough toward a life
of public service which had
made him for more than 10
years the toast of an adoring
nation. yea, worldwide acclaim.
There was no bitterness.
There was no regret that it was
all a closed book. He was too
old to play any more. He might
return to the game in some
capacity. There had been many
suggestions, many overtures,
several hints that there might
be an opening here, an oppor'
tunity there, a contact or a con-
nection some place else.
Partner, With Cash, Wanted
But most of these limited that
he'd have to buy his way back
into baseball, the game he per-
sonally floated as though he
were q tug mooring a found
cred ocean liner off a reef and
on to it's destiny.
If he did come back to base
ball under any such auspices,
1t would be very cautiously and
with the soundest financial ad-
vice and economic counsel.
You see, he had his fingers
burnt in Boston, with the rud-
derless Braves, the first time he
basked as anything over and
beyond a simon-pure player. In
his first, big, baseball business
adventure, he found that all is
not gold that glistens. That

Mayor Carey and George Williams
of Millsboro. both declared for the
campaign and said that they would
urge for it the full support of their
town.
DR.. Hooker. of Millville. showed
his interest in the campaign and
assured DR.. James and DR.. Haney
that he would work not only in his
town but also in the surrounding
territory.
William Sharp of Harrington ur-
eod that the $l5O,OOO be sought by
the whole of Southern Delaware as
one community.
James Williams, of DagsbOrO,
promised to DO his best for the cam
paign.
Other speakers from outside
towns similarly spoke in favor of
the cause and promised to help as
far as possible.
DR.. w. T. Chapman was one of the
speakers from Harrington for the
new hospital. He reiterated what DR..
James had said as to the present
crowded conditions, and the need for
more adequate quarters as soon as
they can be secured.
l.. N. Hearn, one of the hospital
directors, told of DR.. G. Layton
Grier's constant interest in the hos
pital, and declared that if for no
other reason, the citizens should
back him in his earnest effort to
provide a refuge for sufferers in
this part of Delaware. He said that
the superintendent, Mrs. Brown, al
ways finds room for a patient and
that so many more people now go to
hospitals that the Beebe Hospital,
and the hospital at Dover, as well as
Milford, will become crowded. "SOme
of this overflow" he declared, will
presently come to Milford, but we
cannot take care of it under pres |
ent conditions. We must make pro- !

HORSE RACLNG
WITH BETTING
IS LOCALIZED
Continued From Page one)

low will take but majority vote
Subsequent measures will act up the
machinery to legalize and control
betting on horse races by means OF
the pari-mutuels but there will be
no changes in the existing statutes
| against bOOkmakers.
| Two years ago the Legislature
! passed bill creating a commission
to control horse racing in Delaware
/ but prohibiting betting. 1t specified
rules and regulations and a tax of 20
cents on each ticket of admission.
In July of 1888 Governor c. Doug
lass Buck announced the appoint
ment of this commission as follows:
r. R. NJ. Carpenter, of MOntchanin;
John w. McCOmb, of WestOver Hills,
and Paul Adams, of Bridgeville. Gov
ernOr Buck named Mr.. Carpenter
chairman since the bill, which was
introduced by Senator Van SAINT,
provided that the chief executive
shall designate one appOintee to
head the commission.
1t is understood to be the plan to
amend this Van SAINT bill to make
it conform with the constitutional |
before the present Leg
islature if it should eventually be- !
come a law. The Van SAINT act sets
up all the necessary machinery for
horse racing and the Cannon
eliminates the prohibit
ion against betting so that the only
,hange necessary would be to have
he Van SAINT measure legalize bet
ing.
Whether this racing commission
IS named under the Van SAINT bill
will be permitted to stand or wheth-
+ bills to be offered at this session
fill create a new commission has
ot been determined. The bills to
pillow are being prepared and will
e introduced at the earliest date !
o that racing and betting will be d.
in Delaware i'm time to
ave established a track that can
e operated next fall.
