¢ Fs ri Thirteen Isn’t Usually Consid- ered a Lucky Number, but It Surely Proved So for the Giants Saturday. Copyright, 1911, by The Prews Pubtishing Oo, (The! New York World) F course it isn't every day that we start our game with thirteen runs in the first Inning. Thirteen | fen't usually supposed to be a lucky number, but it was lucky enough for the Giants on Saturday. No wonder St. Lonts iay down for a little nap dur+ ing the rest of the afternoon, Reminds me of a fight between a fel- Jow named Jack Stelzner and one Samuel Prultt, a big, dark complexioned Zulu heavyweight of Ban Francisco, Stelaner knocked Prultt down. Sam lay flat on his shoulder Mades until he had been counted out, after which he was dragged to his corner and propped up in achalr, Half a minute later his eyes opened, and the first thing he saw Jack standing in the middle of the ring with «@ wide looking Sam's way. ‘Mr. Referee,” said Sam, “Ah Isn't goin’ on with this match. Ah’s undah too much of a handicap!" NOTICE that a new high jumping I record was ostablished at Wesleyan Saturday—6 feet %% inches. Great work! Never thought they'd ever reach @uch a height. But—just a moment—I must have been thinking of Vassar! HEN Cary of Annapolis ran the W *100" Saturday in the meet with Pennsylvania in 94:5 seconds, he was officially credited with equalling the American collegiate record. But as & strict matter of fact he did not equal the record, which was fairly made by Arthur Duffey in the intercollegiate and was a There wa’ Never the slightest doubt of the authen- tleity of Duffey's record. It wan ac- copted and held a piace on the record pres for a long time, but was arb'- trariiy removed years later wher Duffey exposed the profe: Practically admitted that he had no adhered strictly to the spirit of the amateur rule himself. It was taken fo: @ranted, apparently, that if Duffey ev 414 vidlate the rule it was prior to ti making of the record. thing that Duffey vehemently denied. Arthur Duffey’s running may be for- Gotten some day, since there will be no Printed record of his performances But tt ten't forgotten yet. He was, with the possible exception of Bernard Wofers, the swiftest man that ever dre om & spiked shoe. IKE MURPHY, the greatest coach athletics, says that in his ex- perience as a college coach he has secn @ great many college athletes who broke down in their first or secon year because they had “overdone ath- Jeti" while in preparatory schools. As @ result they suffered from “pullee tendons” and other breakdowns, and ‘Were forced to drop out of competition Dest. Not even the most learned book- athlete, holding down a political job connected with athletics in our public schools, will gain much credit by con- tradicting a man like Murphy, No| 7 coach in the world knows more t ‘Mike Murphy about the athietle gu from beginning to end, His experience has taught him that schoolboy athletics should be directed entirely to bullding up a strong and athletic body, and not to the winning of competitions and making of records. Schoolboy athletics should be more in the line of exercise than of competi- tioa, This is a thing that the book athlete, anxious to “make a showin) doesn't know. In course of time those who direct things in the school-ath- letie world will be wixer—or more care- ful—than they are to-day, and we will have a very different system of school athletics, HE calling off of the p ‘oposed | match between Kk. ©.

Perhaps t aw K. ©. in the Murphy was outpointed by a mile, of course, y he fought in @ way that might have r turned him winner over any lightweight I can mention aside from Murphy or Peckey MoFarland.

Brown, for all the batte: ct Sressive at the end as in the first ro: a a thing that shows how dangerous he Would be in a long fight, Tommy Murphy, by the way he fought, showed that he is clearly en- titled to a match with champion Wol- wast, whom Brown had twice defeated (unoMicially).

By defeating the Montreals, the Jersey City boys captured ‘their fourth game of the season. jump, after Devore had singled, the Cardinals played in close, thinking that Doyle -was going to bunt, and Larry fooled them by slamming the ball out for a aingle into right, Next to that the biggest double-cross qccurred when Mathewson'came to the bat with first and second base occupied. There was Nobody out at the time and ordinarily the «ances would be ten to one that a pitcher would ‘bunt. Huggins and Konetchy figured that way and dashed in on every pitched ball so as to make @ play at third. On the second strike Matty caught them coming in and he Promptly slapped the ball with all his might. It shot safely between them jh. But for strikes they would have been making runs yet. A queer feature connected sith that Saturday slaughter is that the Cardinala made just many hite as the “we each side getting thirteen, Basefrunning is the an- awer as to why the Giants made nineteen rune and the Cardinals only five.
