Ag the situgtion now stands this next classic looks to be on the edge of a toss-up where no man'can fortell the winner unless_he issues a: lucky guess, Luck and Pluck. We heard a golf fan recently de- scribe Jerry Travers! work at the Tenth' Hole at Baltusrol as ‘being a bitlucky. v There was a touch of Iluck, of course.,) But when a man figures he has to play the last nine holes in par to win, and when he glices the first shot out 'of bounds and wastes another in the tangled undergrowth, doesn't it call more for controt or nerve than it does for luck to place that third shot in putting distance and then land the putt? Those two missed shots would have been the signal for any average mortal to . have gone sky- | rdcketting into the June empyrean, where all the luck there is would never have vielded a par. For it took a grand golf shot, played with perfect touch, to give any luck a chance to figure in the rest of it. The Old Cubs may be gone forever. But the New Cubs are proving what Force of Hahit is worth as a vital fac- tor in any branch of existence.

Yale had won the boat race at Springfield on June 30, and wanted their ball team to land the champion- ship. A big orowd was on hand, as there was a. big-boom in’ baseball in '76. The Hartford team was playing in Chicago that day. The papers of that decade state: - “That it was a very poor exhibition of ball: playing. Harvard won, 5 to 1. They made 7 hits, 9 errors. Yale had only 2 hits, 10 errors, Harvard won the championship in 1877 with eagse.

Brown Wins in 1879, Seven college teams contested for for the '79 championship. The season ended in a big row, lnd matters were mixed at the end of .the season, Brown, Yale and Harvard ¢laiming the pennant. Ill feeling was ¢reated when Harvard played their erack battery, Ernst and Tying of '78, who had left college, and were sup- posed to be ineligible to play. Yale, Harvard and Brown, alone played all their series, as Brown had the high- est percentage of victories, she was entitled to the pennant. ‘The unsatisfactory ending of the season of '78, led to the organization I'of the American College association, | at Springfield, Mass., December 9 | 1879.

Yale jained the association in 1881, and landed the pennant, after a close race. Harvard made a great start, winning the first six games played, but ended the season, tied ‘'with Prnice- ten for second place. | After one of the best fought cam- paigns in college baseball, Yale land- ed the pennant for the second time, in 1882, with' the wonderful record of eight victories and three defeats.
