TRAINING ror Ak BY JONNNY HAYES Brains, good lungs, a stout heart, | will power and grit—these are nec. essary for anyone who wants to be & distance runner, The first thing to do is to ac) quire good habits. Don't smoke, don't drink—tnese dwarf your lung power. Get as much sleep as poe sible. Different ‘runners have different “running styles, but the way I have most successful in long races ta to use rubber he landing on the ball of my foot and letting the heel hit the ground a fraction of a second afterward. The contact gives you a spring for the next step, The one great thing is to con. serve your energy. Never set the let the other fellow do it. always easier to come up from Dehind than it ts to fleht desper ately to bold the lead, knowing oth. ers are tearing along behind you. NEVER STRAIN YOUR MUS- CLES. RUN EASY—LET YOUR BODY SWING WITH YOUR STRIDE AND YOU WON'T FIND ANY STRAIN, AND NEVER, UN- DER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES, RUN ON YOUR TOES. IT MAKES SORE FEET AND USES UP THE POWER. Some trainers advise against run- ning with the mouth open. I have mever run a race when I didn't keep my mouth partly open, holding ® quill toothpick in my teeth and Breathing through that at times. There may be some criticism of this, but as I have always finished | with good wind, it seems to bear me out that the method is a suc- cess. ‘There should be no fixed rules as to training. Runners differ--some are born athletes while others Must be developed. Melvin Shep- —==—= = PECULIAR VIEWS “She holds peculiar views of mat- “That so?” “Yes.

GRANTLAND RICE DISGUSTED BRASS-TONGUED MAGNATES WHOSE WORDS CUT NO ICE SY GRANTLAND RICE NEW YORK, Dec. 18.—The test of baseball's ruggedness, strength and recuperative power, is shown by the way it stands up under the shock of the annual meetings of magnates. When the fina! passing of the national game comes—-if It ever does while room remains for diamond and outfield—it will come, not through the errr but the the magnates or club owners. A GAME WHICH ATTRACTS 20,000,c00 ECTATORS ANNUAL. LY; HOLOS INVESTMENTS OF MILLIONS DOLLARS AND EM. PLOVS THOUSANDS OF MEN, IS SUPPOSED TO BE A REGULAR BUSINESS. Despite this, at the annual mecting of the National and American leagues here, proceedings were inaugurated by C. W. Murphy's circular letter, denouncing Ban Johnson, president of the rival te: In the hotel lobbies the chief morse! was about the loud and noisy quarrel between Horace Fogel, president of the Phillies, and his mana- ger, Charley Dooin.

THE STATEMENT OF THE AVERAGE BASEBALL PLAYER CARRIES TWICE THE WEIGHT ATTACHED TO A STATEMENT FROM THE AVERAGE MAGNATE. There ARE exceptions, of course, but in the National league, e: cially, there are too many moguls looking for personal notoriety in pla: of striving to firmly establish the game on a solid footing. Basebali is not only a national business, but it is an institution which should carry dignity, an end it never will reach while a cluster of foolish magnates place their own notoriety above all else connected with the sport. It is time for businesslike contro! of baseball. Ringside Tales By “Old Timer” ’ THE WEST-WALCOTT FIGHT “There were a great many queer things pulled off in New York during the closing days of the Horton law,” “and some of them were the coldest decks ever rung in on the help less public. There was the McCoy-Choynski fight, where McCoy was scheduled to win, and was pitchforked into the decision by knocking Joa out after the gong’ rang to close a round; there was the Corbet McCoy fake, a lovely piece of work; the Corbett-Sharkey deal—which was partly spoiled by Honest John Kelly when he declared all bets off; the McCoy-Maher bout, where Maher was first slated to win, and then the deal was shifted at the last minute, resulting in a two hours’ delay in the ring, till the money could be guided the right way—oh, there were a lot of peachy plays made, and the public was the goat forever. “One of the oddest of them all, though, waa the Walcott-West fight, in which Walcott was alleged to have ‘given up with a broken arm.’ That was one of the funniest ever. Tommy West, a strong and hardy middleweight, had met the Black Demon twice, and on each occasion had given him a sound thrashing. It looked as though West was Wal- cott's Jonah, and when they were matched in New York, the wise money was down on the white man “To make It more of 4 certainty, Walcott was in poor shape and didn’t take well to training. On the night of the battle, the colored man’s wind was bad, and his general condition better fitted for a rest eure than a prize-ring. His manager, Tom O'Rourke, went around and warned everybody not to bet on Joe—that he wasn't right, and that he had no chance to win from West, who was in great condition and fit to tackle a rhinoceros. “When the fight was fairly under way, a staggering surprise greet- ed the wise on West was a mark for the colored man, and Joe drove Tommy round and round the ring, showering heavy punches and receiving nothing in return. All of West's rallies were checked, and inside of five rounds it looked to be only a matter of minutes before the battle would be ended by the knockout road “Down in front there was consternation and there was vast dismay The politicians and the wise ones, all with their money down on West, were apparently to be treated to 4 lacing, and for onee the marks and suckers were to get the coin. “There was whispering and jabbering in Walcott's corner, but the stocky colored man, who didn’t like West anyway, refused to be con- vinced. Again he went out at the sound of the gong, and again he hammered the white man all around the ring. “Then they got real busy with Joe in the corner and talked to him like Dutch uncles. No one outside of the men in the corner ever knew what was really said, but when the next bell sounded Walcott rose and held out his left arm. “Mab ahm's broken, Mistah Referee,’ said Joe. his haid. See—Ah can't use it no mo’, “In the confusion which followed, Walcott forgot which arm was broken and held out first one, then the other, to convince the unbe- Neving. But the play went through. The referee declared that ‘Mr, ‘Ah done bust it on West wing, as Mr. Walcott refuses to continue,’ and the money of the|” wike ones was definitely saved. ‘es, indeed-—they pulled off some great stunts in the good old Horton days.” STAR WANT ADS BRING RESULTS “THE PUBLIC NO| says @ veteran fistic expert,| THE STAR—MONDAY, DECEMBER 18, 1911. _ YOUR aes mined and fied 1 ROMUNDE, Ove Rd Yor Loney ids. tnd mee’ Main B1¥01 Sa = _ BILLIARDS HAWKINS BROTHERS Have you vistted our parlors?
