i Speaking Sports Toronto led the Imernnll‘mnl League clubs in hitting with a mark of 310, It topped Baltimore, which finished sccond, by over ten points. And yot the Dunn entourage edged Dan Howley's croWd in the penant canter by exactly 115 points or 19 full games. Eddie Rommgl of the Athletics led all the American League hurlers in taking part in double plays. Rommel had a hand in an éven dgzen such killings. The Mackite appeared in 438 games, His record was an ex- ceptionally high one. A famous tennis player of the old days, W. A. Larned, won the national singles - title seven times, He was champion in 1901 and 1962 and then returned to lead them all in 1907-08- 09-10-11, He .was also runnerup for three years, 1894-05-96, Larned, furthermore, in 17 out of 20 seasons of active competition, ranked one-two-three in the nation- al ratings. He was placed first eight times; second, five; third, four; fifth, once, and sixth, once, In only one year, 1808, did he fall to get in with the first 10. Larned's performances on the court doubtless stands without equal -and they . aren’t likely to be ap- proached, either, unless Bill Tilden, present champion, can hold to the epace for several more campaigns. . One of the most famous fights in lightweight division history was that between Joe Gans and Battling Nel- son at Goldfield, Nev,, in September, 1906. It was scheduled as a finish fight but terminated in the 42d round when the decision was given to Gans on a foul. With it went the light- weight championship of the world. Gans got something like $11,000 for his end of the purse, while Nel- son drew down around $22,500, that being the split decidéd upon hefore the fight, regardless of the outcome. Willie Ritchie, former lightweight champion was one ‘of the few title- Tolders to come tnio top honors via a foul. Ritchie reached the titular rung in 1912, Meecting the champion, Ad Wol- gast, known as the “Michigan ‘Wild- cat,” Ritchie was awarded the de- cision when Wolgast got in a low blow in the 16th round. With it went the champlonship. Now and then a title changes hands on a foul but it is by far the exception. Thus, Ritchie’s leap to the crown was a bit out of the ordinary and somewhat unusual. Yale University leads in placing players on Walter Camp's mythieal All-American football teams. The Elis have been honored on 84 occasions. Harvard ranks cond with 74. Then come Princeton, Penn- sylvania, Michigan, West Point, Cor- nell and Dartmouth with 10 or more. Notre Dame, though usualy boast- ing one of the best elevens in the has only placed two men on late Gceorge Stuhldre- backfield the Camp teams. The Gipp was one and Har her the other. Doth were players. idock, gencrally term- fastest human,” has 4 dash in world's Churley I “the world turned the 100~ . record time—on no less than five occasions. Moreover, he accomplished the feat four times in a period of a bit over three months, or from March to July, 1921. On Sept. 6. 1924, he did it again. Two other American sprinters, ¢, Dan J. Kelly and Howard P. Drew were also credited with run- ning the century in the same time. But they could furn the trick on but one occasion each. For consistency of cffort the lawrels, therefore, must be handed to the sterling Paddock.
