June 1, -—Yu- smoth- l @wgom There may not be quite as much of the Hip-hip or as much of the widely heralded spectacular to Cornell’s ath- ‘leti¢ work as there is ‘to the athletic endeavors of other universities. But in the matter of all-around, up- and-down athletic, efficiency embracing avery variety of sport there is no move left except to concede the Ithaca stronghold supremacy by a wide mar- gin. The Headliner. Harvard and one or. two others carry.a slight annual margin. in foot- ball over the Carnelian . and White. Once in a while Columbla, Yale or Harvard beat her on the water. .Here and there Princeton and others beat Her on the diamond or at basketball. But we are talking here of a general annual average of all sports—and in this general average of efficiency Cor- nell comes first. 5 Her recent sweep at -the. intercol- legiate games was fairly, typical of Cornell ways. Her triumph was over- whelming, but it was'not achieved by &any one or two or three super-stars of the Ted Meredith type. In:fact, Cor- nell put only a small average out in front of the field. It was not the bril- liancy of any one or two men, but the general excellence of her entire clan, that rolled back the remainder of the contending fleld and established Ithaca as the capital city. Cornell athletics are not a matter of producing a few prize spectmens en- dowed with urfusual brawn, speed and They are rather the matter of lifting ‘the average of the many where the multitude are benefited rather than the. few. Her entire system is ar sine and wholesome as any athletic system could be, whatever the sport, and her decided eminince is'more than deserved. The grand old commonwealth of ‘Ohio has f\lrnl‘hed her full share of presidents and more than double her share of tail-enders. | “Why is it that Cleveland and Cin- cinnati can do no better in baseball 2" agks H. L, K. They both developed the wrong habit thirty years ago and 10 one has ever been able to point them into higher pastures and nobler deeds. Showing the tremendous power of habit. On Originality. Sir—Allow me to congratulate all connected with baseball upon their wonderful originality 1 selecting nicknames. When a Cote breaks in he is daringly christened “King” at once, When Stack arrived he was labelled ‘‘Smoke” on the spot. And LIGHT Grantlend Rice Men vs. Systen. “In case of war’—we extract this irom an exchange—‘‘America has the men to beat any military system in the world.” This statement reminds us of a cer- tain football battle we ovnce watched with ““Hurry-up” Yost. One eleven bad only average looking material— Leen coached with a fine system of knowledge -and strategy. It knew football and all the kinks thereof. The other eleven had one of the finest looking collections of human fiesh any one would care to see. It had the men—big men, fast men— rlayers of courage who fought every foot of ground. After five minutes of play Yost made this remark, the score being 0 to 0—"It’s a crime to send a good game bunch of youngsters to the field knowing so little or the game. drive the other off the map.” And the first team, with the system, beat the second team, with the men, about 22 to 0, as we recall the count. “Why are present day ballplayers 20 easily hurt?” queries an Inquiring bystander. Because they are valuable. And the mure valuable any viece of bric-a-brac is the more brittle it is, whether it be on the diamond or in the pantry. Just at present Ty Cobb only leads all leagues in batting, pase hits, runs scored and stolen bases. But the season is young yet, and he should get going with warmer weather to thaw out his Georgia blood. “Lessons in how to use a niblick” is the title of a small volume just re- cejved. It leaves us strangely cold, not to say clammy. What we are looking for is “Lessons on how not to have to use a niblick.” The White Sox Flurry. We note where one contemporary figures the White Sox will goon be due tor a sudden drift down hill. “Back in 1912, he writes, “the Sox led the Tace until June and then collapsed; 1915 will' probably be a repetition of 1912, Only the case is by no means the eame. In 1912 the White Sox pumped along in front 'because Eq Walsh was pitching and winning every other game. They depended upon one siab- man, and when the rubber began to wear out in his shoulder there was nething to it but the Soapy Chute. But for the present campaign the Sox have not only a greatly improved club, with Eddie Collins and others, how daringly and originally each In- dian is plastered with the monicker “Chief.” How do thelr prains work ro dog-gone fast?

BENDIGO, SILIST-EVANGELIST, FOR BILLY Billy Sunday is not the first man who won early fame as a professional | athlete to turn the pulpit and achieve fame and shekels by saving souls. Perhaps the most celebrated of Eilly’s forerunners was William Thompson, beter known in sporting circles as Bendigo, who was hy turn | pugilistic champion of England, keep- er of a “pub, notorious drunkurd, and firally an evangelist and preacher | of the Gospel. His language as a “sky pilot,” was quite as origina] and | quaint ag that now affected by the “baseball evangelist,” and his meet- ings in London and elsewhere in Eng- land attracted vast crowds. Bendigo's memory as pugilist and parson is perpetuated by a monument erected in Nottingham, England, twenty-four years ago today, June 1,! 1891. It is a slumbering lion, full | life size, cut in stone, and bears {his inscription: “In life always brave, fighting like a lion; in death a lamb, tranquil in Zion." Bendigo died in Nottingham in 1880. He was forty years old when he last defended his title , defeating Tom Paddock, a much younget man. That battle, fought in 1850, was his last in the ring, and thenceforth for many years he devoted his entire ats | tention té “fighting the booze.” He to P. A. just-jams-joy against your palate!
