Keevers, Htrm«m Schmarr, 04 PORT 4 A screed of more than usual inter- est comes in today from one who is, student nerve apparently & much keener than the average of the part plays is sport. Our correspondent takes as his text a certain line from a story of the New London race, which said: “There wWas the same old fight—fight—fight in the boat from New Haven.” Further down he continues: “This is a .question of values, And to a Pesnsylvania man who has seen his fcotball team over and over again Win from Cornell after being beaten in the tirst half—to a Cornell man who has gen his crew win two-thirds of all Poughkeepsie races—to all such col- lege or university ever acquired a lepumdon for any extra nerve. Yale loses steadily and long in races with Harvrd. Yet a race won by seven lengths from a Harvard crew evidently overrated calls forth the blare of a return ‘of the old Yale spirit.” The Correct Point. “My point is this,”” further continues ¢ur correspondént. “There is such a thing as prestige and system and ‘n- dividual college spirit—also men for material 'and other factors in winning. For sheer winning without a reason Pennsylvana leads in football—but Yale's marvellous system of twenty yvears' prestige and, of course, spirit— kept them in front until Harvard came forward with better material, as goood a system and as much spirit. But it was not sand or courage in either case, above any other college. Taking Harvard as an’ instance—there hag not been in Cambridge any ex- plaining or excuses ever—but there has guddenly been a finding of a spirit of sand that twenty years of football previous to 1907 never included in youth coming from all states. It alsc takes nerve to keep losing—and then to hold on, say nothing and get there. Harvard was stupid in trying all sorts and kinds of coaching in foot- ball,and while Harvard learns a little too slowly sometimes for the en- thusiasm of her soul, vet she learns | with power to hold on when she finds ithe way. The moral that I see is just this—that any decent college has a spirit that depends wholly on'its own integrity .and ideals—if American at all. ' Spirit is, in other words, a fairly level factor in the manhood that comes from Massachusetts and from Cali- fornia to all colleges.” The Answer, Yale spirit is the equal of any other spirit. So is Harvard spirit or Prince- ton spirit—or Cornell spirit or Penn spirit. The answer rests only In small part upon any spirit foundation, The answer is system plus Material—- . which {s what Yalee and,Cornell had in rowing and what Harvard had in football. | For system plus material means efficiency—and efficiency is the greatest developer of spirit or sand that any game ever knew. Germany is beating Russia. Why? Not because Germans are braver than Russians—but because they are more efficient. Wasn't it spirit, you might asgk, that cartied the Bruves to the top last summer? 1In a large part. But where was the Brave spirit until Stallings added George Whitted, Red LIGHT Grantlend Rice Smith, Ted Cather and Herb Moran— or until his three great pitchers got in | shape to do their work? Wasn't it & rebullt efciency that developed Brave spirit—rather than spirit - which de- veloped efficiency? For if this latter is so the Braves quit the Arst two months of the race—which of course they did not do. Through that period they were merely inefficient. The Percentage of Nerve. All of which isn't intended to sug- gest that nerve plays no large part in spirit. For it does. But nerve, for the most part, as our correspondent suggested, ig a fairly level factor after all—for herve in the case of one entry too often goes with advantages that some other entry doesn't enjoy. The Ways of Fate. The ways of fate are beyond any man'’s understanding. It has fallen to the lot of Connie Mack to have won six pennants—one moére than McGraw; to have built up one.'of the greatest machines of all time; have developed as many star ball players as any other leader in sport; to have won four pen- nents in thé last five yers, including three world championships. It has belonged to Mack to have de- veloped a system of play that curbed umpire baiting and unfair effort. Yet today Connie has a ball club around the foot, playing to the -smallest crowds in his league, struggling along with a bankroll gone to pot and but little left to show for & half decade of triumph—except the bare record it- elf. Ordinarily with four world series in tive years, Mack and company would have cleared up over half a million. Others have done far less and gather- ed in substantial rewards. Such be- ing the twists'of tate/ No Argument. Sir—To settle an argument, which university has the better record fer the year, Cornell or Harvard? R. L. J. Summer is no part of the year in which to get worked up over any such debate. 'Both did well to label it an extremely pleasant year. Theére was no terrific huzzing or hip- -hipping attached to any mention -of Urban Faber’'s monicker back in April, but at present Mr. Faber is'out beyond Alexander, Johnson, Caidwell and any others you might have in mind. With a record of fourteen won and two lost to date, Red Urban has ar- rived. How long he will stay put'is another matter, followed his work all year state that his achievement is based on merit minus the essence of a fluke. It may be that Faber, like Fournier, is & good hypnotic subject, and Mana- ger Rowland at the start suggested to Urban that he had all the stuff there was and would only drop one game a month. If this ig true, we wish Mr. Rowland would step up to us some | day and speak about ag fellows—"You | will never miss another mashie shot or fail to sink another ten-foot putt.” ‘Walter Johnson has lost his fast ball just as John D. Rockefeller has lost every cent he had left in the world. Baseball News in a Nutshell COLONIAL LEAGUE, Yesterdn;"s Resulfs. All games yesterday pcsiponed omn account of rain. Standing of the Clubs.

Kauff sald he was going to play with the Giants. Seaton allowed as how e probably wouldn't play at all any more. Moanings that sounded some- thing' like “bring suit’* were emitted by both. Kauff and Seaton made up their minds to drastic action immediately after walking up to the pay winodw at Washington park shortly after noon. Kauff expected to collect $1,- 000 and instead got $500 Seaton was disappointed similarly to a lesser de- | gree. The complaint of Kauft is over what he calls misinterpretation of the terms under which he came to Brooklyn from the Indianapolis Feds. | The little outfielder who regards him- | self as a second Ty Cobb—or rather regards Cobb as a second Benny Kauff—had a contract with Indianap- olis that called' for $4.000 annually for three years. It had this year and next yet to run. When Kauff signed it he got $1,500 advance money, which was to be deducted in three blocks of $500 on July 1 of last year, this year and next year. Brooklyn obtained ‘Kauff last win- ter and Business Manage Dick Cars roll voluntarily signed him to a new contract for $6,000 a year, or $1,000 each playlnp month. The player con- tends that’ this contract wiped out the old one and that he therefore MEN owed the Indianapolis club nothing further. The Brookfeds insist that the debt remained in existence ana that the $500 deducted yesterday sim- ply decreased the amount he still owes, to $500. The National Commission settied Kauff's status, so far as . organized baseball s concerned, on the occasion of his attempted jump to the Glants a bit more than a month ago, holding that he was ineligible because of hav- ing violated his old contract with the\ American association team of Indian- apolls. Kauff did not look up Me- Graw yesterday or last night, but the latter as well as Secretary John B. Foster of the Giants declared that it would be obviously,K impossiblié for Kauff to play in the National league. Seaton, who was one of the best pitchers in the Federal league last yvear, had been suspended recently for failure to observe training rules. When he got his pay yesterday he found that salary had been deducted for the time he was under the ban. It is said moreover that the club officials had become disgusted with the lordly ways of Beaton, who always demand- ed the most expensive room or suite of rooms in hotels wherever the club stopped, as well as wanting a com- partment in the Pullmans when the club was on the road.
