However one may take exception to Dr. Hullan Jawthorne's notions of the hygienic way to sleep (namely, by. kneeling on the bed with pate buried in a pillow of newspaper clippings), there ia no gainsaying that he has taught the world something in his crusade against professional sport, Strange enough, the man to first give our eminent booptolo- gist his due recognition is Ned Hanton, famed for years as a manager of pro- fessional baseball teams.

How little these folks know that the blame, if such {t may be called, must be traced primarily to Dr, Jawthorne, who set about converting the Brooklyn triumvirate, body and soul. Where his Influence will end none can say. The writer attempted ¢o interview Mr. Han- lon yesterday, but had small success. He did not feol a bit chagrined over his team's miserable showing, but smiled in a kindly way as though to say “Wait a while, sonny, until] our crusade sinks its cleats in the public.” He did say that he, Medicus and Ebbets all have perfect confidence in their preceptor's scheme, which is noth- ing more or Jess than to make every ball player support himself on the out- side, entertaining the public merely for love of the game. The spirit of pro- feaslonalism, he quotes, is a canker |, worm chewing up all that 4s good, wholesome and honest in sport. The Public Is about sick of it and very soon will refuse to pay to see hired men wrestle, fight or play ball.
