Cook On “Making of : ; ‘About 100 young men and hoys, who have taken part in athletic competi- tion during the past year, attended th annual banquet at the Y. M. C. A. last night and heard Rev. Warren F. Cook, pastor of Trinity Methadist church, deliver an interesting address on “The Making of Champions”. The supper tables were well decorated with badges, cups and medals that the athletes had captured by superior skill in certain branches of sport dur- ing the year. Physical Director War-: ren. 8, Slater acted as toastmaster. My, Slater explained to those pres- ent that Mr. Cook has been i1l for the past several weeks and he had made a special effort to come out and talk to the boys. The basis of Mr. Cook’'s talk was formed on the 'pamphlet written by the noted sporting writer Grantland Rice on “The g of Champions”. Early in his talk The congratulated the men and boys on .their work and gave both Physical Di- rector Slater and his Assistant Carl Carlson unlimited praise. When he called upon those present for a cheer for these men all in the hall respond- ed with a will, Mr, Cook showed how an athlete by bard work and energy may become what he wishes to be and he polnted out the case of Ty Cobb and several other men that are high up in the athletic worid that reached their po- sition by unabatable energy in their chosen fleld, Either in school or in the game of life use your head, stat- ed Mr. Cook. When a man is playing a game or when he is in the game of life he should keep his senses about him all of the time. It may be "a short time before the young men may be called upon to use their heads and make a gréat sacrifice and when the call to arms’'comes they should be prepared to do their part in earnest. . 0100100101—4 6 0 { Determination, work and sacrifice are . 0100001100—3 '9 2| the things that are necessary to make a man what he would be in this world, sald Mr. Cook. , May 1.—Ruth won his fifth .victory when Boston defeated Tt \ Hooper, heir batting averages with ‘hits aplece.

PLAYERS WILL RESPOND Johnson Reeents Accusation That Ball Tossers Will Not Respond to Coun- try’s Call to Arms. + Chicago, Iil, May 1.—Baseball—to, use ithe words of Ban Johnson—will be honored and glorified by a war call to its young men who are eligible to military service, according to present plans of the war department. Some one asked Ban if baseball would “suffer’ through . eelective conscrip- tion, and Johnson instantly resented the word. Approximately 214 men in both big leagues will be drafted if the call goes out before the end of the season. One hundred and thirteen of ' these will come from the American league and 101, from Gavernor Tener's circuit, The fact that the American league clubs, for the most part, are being drilled constantly will have little effect, for what they. are learning in baseball drilling camps would be only’ a beginning- to the instruction they would receive in a big army encamp- ment. The only hope for a respite seems tolle in the fact that mobilization at the camps probably will not begin un- til September, when the baseball sea- son is rapidly drawing near the end. A month might be granted the men to finish. and then report. The world's i pight suffer badly. N ang the stars of the game who are believed to be eligible to service , are Benny , of the Giants; How- ! ard Ehmke, .. the Tigers; Dave Davenport and Allan Sothoron, of the ! Brow?: Joe Judge and Harry Harper, of the Senators: Jesse Barnes, Walter | Maranville, Arthur Nehf and Bill James, of the Braves; Leon Cadore, of the Dgdgers; Reuther and Wort- man, of the Cubs; Cueto, Kopf, Mit- chell, Rousch and Sanders, of the Reds; Walter Holke, Fred Schupp l'and Kilduff, of the Giants; Bancroft, AMERICAN LEAGUE.

BRATEN, BUT DETERMINED New York State Executive Still Bent on Having Boxing Stopped Wltlnml His Jurisdiction. / ‘Albany, N. Y., May 1.—Despite the fact that the Davis bill, designed to repeal the Frawley law, twice falled of the necessary 76 votes in the assemb- | ly, and that the Slater bill. also in- ! tended to abolish boxing in this state, | has been smothered in committee, | Governor Whitman still is endeavor- law In view of the fact that the senti- ment of a majority of the members of both houses of the legislature is against the repeal of the boxing law ' and that the public is overwhelming- 1y In favor of the retention of the law considerable surprise was occasioned by the governor’s latest activity in the direction of a repealing measure- It appears from a statement made yesterday by Senator J. Henry W-I-! ters, chairman of the judiclary com-} mittee, that there was method in the action of Senator Slater in introduc- ing a new bill in the senate. “The bilLL” declared Senator Wal- ters, “will be brought before the sen- ate not in the shape of a committee report, hecause at this stage of the session. a single objection | would throw it into committee of the ‘whole, otherwise the ‘morgue.’ Instead, therefore, of adopting this procedure the senate rules committee will bring it before the senate under a special rule which will make it the pending question until disposed of Probably also there will be a rule limiting debate. “I look for this to be done today or Wednesday. There are the neces. sary votes in the senate to pass it, and in the assembly Speaker Sweet assures its passage. ‘While Governor Whitman was busy trying to bring about the stoppage of boxing the commission moved into new quarters. Secretary Mathewson had the fruniture and records of the commission carted from the old quar- ters at 41 Park Row over to room 611, Hall of Records building. This being a ‘city building, -the work . of the commission, especially as to the financial features, will be simplified. at Beats Senators---Babe Ruth A(inéxes Fifth Straight Victory---Bad Feeling Crops Ou in Phillies-Braves Game---Johnson Says Ball Players Will Go to Front-—-Landers Five Breaks Record e Ain’t it a Grand and Glorious Feelin’?

The fact was accom-, plished through the excellent work of Anderson, Huck and Thompson, who turned in marks well over the cen- tury figure. The boys from the sub- urbs were outclassed losing all three mames. Four of the victorious crew had total scores over the 300 mark, with Anderson leading in the singles with 124. For the losers Graham was the big noise with 118 for high single and 299 for high total. The New Britain Machine company defeated the Skinner Chuck company three straight games in the second same in the Factory league series last evening. Joe Cusack, the noted hunt- er and woodsman, was the star of the match, the squirrel chaser pounding the maples savagely and securing a high score of 117 and a total of 323.
