As far as l6-year-old Ben Mintz is concerned the die is cast. He is go- ing to be a sports writer, To that end he spends spare moments Tn the locker rooms at Cornell, where he observes the Big Red athletes at close range.

 Miss X" Gave Cards Their Name

ST. LOUIS, May 17.-A sports writer and an unknown Chicago girl gave the St. Louis National League team the name of Cardinals.
 In 1900, soon after the franchise of the Cleveland Spiders had been transferred to St. Louis, the team was playing in Chicago.
 When the team trotted out on the field, in gray uniforms trimmed in bright red, the girl exclaimed "Oh, isn't that just the loveliest shade of cardinal?"
 Billy McHale. St. Louis newspaper man, caught the exclamation, re- ferred to the team as the "Cardin- alsg in his story of the game-and the name stuck.
