Trey may not see me from the field Whom I have shadowed in the fight: They may not know why they must vield Whatever be their skill, They only know that years Their feet throne, Their portion only sighs and tears Whom I have marked to be my own. or might; through the never the may reach They may not know I marked them out In babyhood—nar down the way 1 guided them in reel and rout Across the borders of their day; They only wonder at the might Of unseen hands that drag them back, Just as they storm the final height To falter in the last attack. You know the anes I speak of here, That ought to win—but never do; You've watched them struggle year by year And falter when the crown is due; You called it lack of nerve—or such— Not knowing, when their dream was killed, That I, Fate, held them in my clutch And drove them downward as I wil- led. And some I crush before they rise, And others I give dreams that see Pevond the starlight of the skies The victories that are to be; I lead them upward to the crest, And then, just where the stands, I drive the thorns into each breast And wrest the roses from their hands. They may not see me from the Field, Whom I have shadowed in the Fight; They may not know why they must vield, ‘Whatever be their skill—or might; They only know that out the way Some shadow ever dims the throne— Poor dreamers of an empty day, ‘Whom I have marked to be my own. Fate and Success, It is more inspiring, and there is a better moral tone involved, to sug- gest that in sport each man is a carver of his own destiny—that pluck is everything and that luck is nothing. But the pallid facts are something Pluck and skill and efficiency But don’t overlook And the part that Luck plays is not to be missed. The Game’s Destiny. What is meant by Fate? Well, here is one instance. Last September at Detroit in the amateur golf cham- pionship Chick Evans had a 74 in his first round and was beaten. Sherrill oy last gate | Grantland Rice the semi-finals. meet Sawyer It at 3et went on to was Evan's fate to his best. There is the fate of one man play- ing well, meeting an opponent who hzppens to be at his best. The former 1¢ Another, not playing nearly so well, wins because was far off form. And credit, in the the defeat. Fate Again, But on the day the national cham- lin’s fate that Johnson should be at his best. Travers lost to Marston at Detroit when the Open Champion played the last twelve holes exactly in par. An- | other section from Fate, for it so happened that against Travers Mars- ton played the last twelve holes 4 strokes better than he was able to play them against any other man through the tournament. It was not Traver's poor golf that lost. It was the fate that threw him against the most brilliant finish of the rlay. Not to Forget Cravath. Then again there is the world series case of Cactus Cravath. The Cactus One was tipped to knock the ball out of the lot. the fences are fairly close, he was unable to get in a long punch. In Boston where the field is big, Cravath smashes at least three long flies that would have earned him eternal fame if they had been landed in his home bailiwick. They went for outs in Boston where they would have been home runs in Philadelphia. He was facing the same pitching in Boston that he faced in Philadelphia, It was rot through lack of merit, but rather that Fate on th: occasion had him marked and spotted. One man in a ball game hits at a bad ball in a cruical spot and a badly hit, twisting Texas Leaguer breaks up the game and brings him glory. Another comes through with a clean line drive, well hit, that is hauled dGown by a freak catch. His drive is forgotten where the other is re- membered. The Giants, with exactly the same ball club, lose 13 games out of 15 and then turn to win 19 out of 21. It is not humanly possibly that they could have improved this much in their skill at such short notice. Once rore it is a question of Fate. The Fate that worked against them in defeat, worked for them in victory. You can see just what difference the switch made in the way of results. Sherman had no round under 80 and NATIONAL LEAGUE.

MUHLENBERG LAY Allentown, Pa., June 6—That there will be renewed success on the grid- iron at Muhlenberg college this fall is indicated by the fact that the Ath- letic board has entered into contract with Dr. John B. Price to coach the football team. Dr. Price was coach at Trinity college, Hartford, last vear, which had one of the most suc- cessful football seasons in its history. He recently decided to locate in Al- |lentown to practice medicine and this largely aided the board in clos- ing the agreement for his services. DS DR.
