?????-?__ _ Il --.--...... ... ???.....,..#__ ., .?, ?, , I Baseball Loses One of Its Grandest and Most Stalwart Figures in the Death of Pop Anson Chicogoan Famed Alike as a Great Batsman and Leader His Love of Game. Loyalty and Integrity Played Big Part in Making Baseball What it Is To? day; Many of His Records Still Remain By Grantland Rice "Cap" Anson is dead. To modera fans who can look back through only two decades this line will be merely a part of the day's news, to be forgotten, perhaps, by the next headline. But to the Old (?card of the game it means the passing of baseball's Beaten figure, the most noted of the supermen who helped to start and hnild the nation's greatest sport. * - - .-; Just forts-seven years n<ro this sprinte Anson bepan his National ??put* career with the Chicago club, ?her. managed b: the late A. t;. Spald ?r,c who helped '" form the first of ?hi major league?. He was then a tall, powerful youngater, v 10, within a few ???on<'. was able to take his place as ?he moat magnetic fiar of hi? time, a treat first 1 -.upper and one of the "i- ' ?' "? ' 'bat ever took a team 'o the fiel?! From 1^76 Anson heb! his high place b the gam" for twenty two years, ?' ?jrk that no repular ex, ep* ( y Youni? ,a<? ever reached. And for twenty of these twenty-two years, according :o many official averages, he batted .300 or better, another mark thai even Cobb, the greatest ni ai' batsmen, may never equal. Anson s eflrerr with Chicago, where rv-rit ol ti-.r time he led the '?mous Colts into action, lasted for twenty-one years before New York sent '"or him in 1897. Here ho closed out bis active c?reer on the diamond, but it is worthy of note that at the n;:o of forty-five, in his twenty-second campaign, ho stil! betted .30.3, one of the ?no.it remark? able achievements in the history ?if sport. Wagner ami Lajoie, his two main rivals later . were forced to torn in their harness two years sooner than Anson red bis plove, to fall back finally before the fire of t?3ne. The simple fact that Anson buttert over .300 in his forty-fifth y eat through hi? twenty-second campaipn ,! ?n itself typical of the most endur? ing of all the stalwarts who have tarned their living with ball, bat and glove. The light in his batting eye was still carrying a bright glow when hil ancient arms and legs1 had at last given away and ended his career upon the field. Starts With Spaldinp When Anr.on started his major league career in 1S76 his team mates were A. <.. Spauldinp, Ross Barnes, Jarees White. Cal McVev, J. P. Poters, J. W. Glenn, P. A. Hi?es, R, Addy, J. F. Cone, Oscar Hielaski and F. II. A?? oras. Most of these have long since panted from the memory of fandom, they are merelv in the records that are now covered with dust. Hut An ?on. forty-seven years after his start, was stiii looked upon as part of the ?tame, an institution that was becom? ing almost as immortal as time. The secret of Anson's greatness was not only due to his great skill and ragged Integrity but also to the fact that he loved lie raine wlh an intensity tbat the lori? caravan of years could aver weaken. When the Yankees met the Giants in the last world series Old Cap was one of the first funs in the stand each day, more keenly ??'t&pped up i:i the final result than Miy player on the field. The most loyal of all National Lea^tie rooters, ho felt the shock of the first Giant defeats, only to rebound to the heights again when the tide had turned. This was his last world series, fought forty *ix years after he liad made his first ??ale hit in ?* Chicago uniform when the game wax still struggling for ex? igence against great odds. Anson reached his greatest fame as ?eader of the old Chicago Colts. Here, ?s a batsman and a handler of men who ?ere none too easy to control, he di? rected the destinies of great teams for two decades where his big bat could always he depended upon when a hit was needed for the decisive run. Be? yond his ball playing, there was some? thing impressive in his bearing that ?eenied to lift him even above the men of his time, where his rare honesty >nd his unswerving loyalty to his game, his league and his city helped - give baseball the start that carried il on Into the country's national game. Fans in those earlier days might hear e/f scandal as they do now, but they also knew that any that heM a Cap Anson must be right in spirit.

Boxing Commission Reinstates Tendier And Manager The New York State Boxing Com j mission yesterday 'ifted the ftuspen i sions imposed upon Lew Tendier, Phil? adelphia lightweight, and his manager, Phil Classman. Both were suspended last Tuesday as a result of an alterca? tion that followed Tendier'? bout with Charley Pitts at the Broadway Exhibi tion Association on Monday evening. j There was a verbal clash between i Classman nod Referee Andy Griffith j when the latter awarded the decision ? to Pitts on a foul in the seventh round. Pitts, who had taken a terrific beat I ing from Tendier in every round, 'claimed that he had been hit low in i the seventh. Many ringside spectators j declared that, the blow was fair and ! had struck the Australian in the pit ?of the stomach. Classman and (?riffln argued the matter in th?? ting and : latei- in Tendler'B dressing room, and ! the manager is alleged to have used ? some caustic language. When the I boxing commission met next day the i suspension of Tendier and Glassman I was ordered. Fighter and manager appeared be ? fore the commission yesterday, and I Tendier was exonerated after being ' criticized somewhat warmly for the ! peculiar fighting pose he Mlopts in I the ring. Lew is a southpaw and de? votes about 75 per cent, of his attack j to body punches. The commission warned Classman not to question the decisions of ref? erees and the latter promised to be I good in the future. This closed the incident. Galantman and Pirate Gold Run Fast Six Furlongs in Work-Out By W. J. Macbeth Wherever the thoroughbred is known in America Whitney horses have i been both feared and respected for more than a generation. The Eton Mue, with brown cap, was something to conjure with in the days of the j late William C. Whitney; they have lost nothing of caste since they fell into the keeping of the son, that king of sportsmen and prince of good .fellows, Harrv Favne Whitney. ?-? This formidable .?.table, which if trained by Jimmie Rowrj, is expected t< raise the greatest impediments in th? three-year-old pathway of the great Morvich. Rowe has Bunting, the Fu turity winner of 1921; Whiskaway I Prudish and Yashmak stepping almosl to mid-summer form in their Preak j ness work. And it is said that Ttockel ?is the best in the barn and likely tc I carry his stable's hopes in the Ken j tucky Derby. There are other Whitney horses that ! do not race under blue and brown silks '?that may have something very definite ; to say in three-year-old stake honor? | this season. These belong to the for ? midable Oreentree Stable, which is J owned by Mrs. Payne Whitney. Two of ?the Greentree candidates, which are j entered both in the Preakness and in ( the Derby, at Belmont Park yesterday > morning knocked the railblrds dizzy i in a joint work-out that decided trainer ? Scot Harlan to ship to Maryland at . j once. I Galantman and Pirate Gold worked ! j together as a team for six furlongs and well within themselves all the way in the remarkably fast time of 1:13 2-5. ? Some few of the stop watches caught II them in "thirteen flat." The crack 1 pair had heavy exercise boys in the ! saddle and packed more than Derby weight. "Let them run," said Harlan, "but do not urge them." The boys followed instruction/. The work was impressive as well as'fast. Harlan declared after the race that he was more than pleased. "I am sure," said he. "they could (have kept the clip up for a mile or more." Harlan was particularly im < pressed by the form of Pirate Gold This half brother of Knobbie was pur? chased as a yearling two years ago al the Saratoga sales for $14,000. He dit not go to the races last year. He had plenty of speed, but was saved up foi < a strenuous three-year-old campaigr : after the English custom. Galantman j it will be remembered, finished second ?to Harry Payne Whitney's Bunting in the last Futurity. Galantman. which ? led all the way almost to the very j last jump and lost out by a nose, raced j in the colors of Larry Waterbury on : that occasion. Yesterday's performance of Pirate \ Cold and Galantman assured a trip to ? Maryland of the furthest advanced ? horses of the Greentree Stable. The ! Greentree candidates will be at Havre ; de Grace early next week. Pirate Cold and Galantman will then be given se j rious trials in real races, after which I Mr. Harlan will decide whether to re j main in Maryland for tho Preakness or ship to Churchill Downs for Derby ! game. I The great Morvich took a "canter" of three-quarters at Jamaica about the | time the Greentree stable pair were j exercising at Belmont Park. Morvich i loped the six furlongs in 1:15 2-6. He showed 1:0'1 for the first five furlongs, ; then cantered the final eighth. Jockey : I,. McAtee was again in the saddle and ; rode according to instructions. Trainers and jockeys encamped at Belmont Park, Jamaica and Aqueduct | are looking forward to a great evening j Monday next. T. V.'. Roydan Lein, ; of the West Nassau Democratic Club, j will be host at a smoker in Childs Hall, Floral Park. L. I. A half dozen exhibi? tion bouts by well known professionals 'will enliven the occasion. Dual Regatta on Schuylkill To-day Opens Rowing Season By Jack Lawrence Vale and the University of Pennsylvania will open the 1922 rowing ! season this afternoon with a dual regatta that will be fought out over the ! historic Schuylkill River course in Fairmount Park, Philadelphia. The big evenl of the day is the varsity race, which will be rowed over the classic Henley distance of a mile and rive-sixteenths. This contest will be preceded by races be!.ween the junior varsity .und 150-pound crews. Tbe duel between tbe varsity crews'-' will be watched with keen interest as, for one thing it is expected to give fol? lowers of this great ??.port a line on what Jim Corderry, successor to Cuy N'ickalls, has been able to do as head rowing coach at Vale. This is the first year that he has had the full authority of this oflk-i? and students of the game are anxious to ascertain whether his marvelous feat in whipping the much de-feate?! and much-maligned eight of 1921 into shape to defeat Harvard on the Thames laM June was merely a flash in the pan or a forerunner of greater things to come. Corderry took charge of the Yale crew hardly ten days before the New London regatta, and at that timo the Blue navy seemed hopelessly demoralized. The victory over Harvard was regarded as some? thing of a magic achievement. If the present Yale varsity, several members of which are veterans of laet year's heart-breaking struggle against Harvard, rows with the amazing game | ncss and courage displayed by the 1921 eight on the Thames, it seems safo to ; predict that a victory will be registered this afternoon over Pennsylvania. Joe Wright, head coach at Pennsyl I vania, announced last night that the ; so-called "Red" crew would row sb the | varsity this afternoon against Captain Langhorne Gibson's New Hnven com? bination. The "Red" outfit, is the one stroked by ?Vlattisoil arid has been re? garded as the varsity eight throughout j the training season, although there ' were times when it was forced to take the wash of the "Blue," or second . varsity. The latter combination will ! row to-day as the junior varsity. The "Red" eight is a formidable boatload of athletes and many experts i have predicted that U will defeat the Yale varsity this afternoon. It would cause the writer no great surprise if such a thing casiie to pass, as the course and the distance seesn to favor Wright's men very considerably. A longer voyage would be 3nore to the liking of the New Havenites, So far ; as picking a winner is concerned it looks like a case of tossing up a coin and abiding by the result. The contending junior varsity crews also seem evenly matched, although the sf.me conditions that appear to give Pennsylvania's first eight a slight, ad? vantage apply also to the second boat. There seems to be small hope for Yale's 100-pound crew, which is more ) or less of an experiment at New Haven 'and quite an unknown quantity. The I Pennsylvania lf?0-pound combination, however, is one of the best eights of lits weight in the East, and if it is de ; feated to-day the result could be re ; garded as a 3nost disconcerting form . reversal. Pennsylvania's crews this after? noon can be expected to strike a con? siderably higher beat than will be de ; veloped in the Yale combinations. The ! varsity crew is capable of getting away i under the high pressure of forty to the 1 minute and covering the entire Henley ! distance without registering very much i under thirty-six. This, in a short race. ' is a very distinct advantage when the ! opposing shell is attuned to a very \ much slower cadence. Captain Gib ; son's combination may be expected ! to get under way with a thirty-eight I beat and to roll down the course at ! something like thirty-four. The Quakers will enter the big event. | this afternoon without the services of ; FJddie Mitchell, the famous 150-pound ! stroke of last year's varsity. He has ? been succeeded as pacemaker by Matti j son, who, all things considered, is no mean substitute. Scholastic deficiencies I have caused Mitchell to be removed j from the boat. Mattison, who is a ! sophomore, weighs 176 pounds. He : stroked the freshman eight in most of ? its races last year, and seems to be a | highly promising oarsman. The absence of Mitchell relieves to ? day's contest of a decidedly lnterest | ing angle. If he were back at his old j post we would have the very unusual ] situation of two 150-pound strokes in ! action against each other. That is the I exact weight of Freeman, stroke of the j Yale varsity. The boating of the two varsity crews j follows: Vale?Leslie, bou, Kill.?. No S ; Littler, No. X. Sheffield, Ne 4, Gibson (C&pt.), No. 6; Rockefeller, Ne. 6; llaldeman. No. 7. Freeman, stroke; ?'hase. Coxswain.

The IGO-pound crews will be sent away at 3:30 p. m., and the junior i varsity and varsity crews will take the t water at half-hour intervals thereafter. I Fair (?ol?cgians Meet At Basketball To-day An innovation in basketball for women's colleges will be attempted this afternoon when the Smith and Vasaar alumnre clash in a court contest, for t/ie benefit of their endowment funds at the Ttb Regiment Armory. The game will be open to tho public, and the win? ning college will receive 60 per cent of the gate receipts.

"It prolongs life. 1 believe that I Mould be dead now if I had not taken up golf, and my regret is that I waited until i ?was thirty-five years of age before taking to the links with its life giving benefits. Now they start young, but it is never too late to begin, for even with my late start 1 won both the American and the British titles, and one may go on golfing many years after the age that would prevent, indulgence in other sports."

'M It was a lucky thing- for the Tigers.-** ? - I "Bob" Harrison, pitching his first game j of tho year for the Southerners, was a puzzle except in the third frame. Dame Fortune, indeed, allowed Princeton to j score in that inning. Hotting laced a single to left field, which went for i three bases when Carlyle slipped on the ' ? wet grass in turning to stop the ball. Jefferies's sizzling liner, which was too hot for Garrington, sent Hotting home, ami Jefferies counted on Cooper's scratch hit. Thi Virginians gave the Tigei i quite la scare in the fifth. Southpaw Harvey, ?who had allowed but ?me hit, -weak ened, issuing passes to Foster and I'm i rish in succession. Coach ("lark senl I Townsend to the mound, and he passed the first man who faced him, filling the bases with none out. Harrison was caught off first as he slipped in the mud, ?nul Carrington was thrown out j at first, McCoy then sent a hot groundei to ! ward third, which bounded from Cots ? chalk's glove and struck Parrish, who ?was running to third, tie was ?ailed lout by Umpire Cross, and a vigorous i protest by the Southerners failed to ?make him reverse his decision. Harvey was given th?' glad hand by the Tiger (rack squad, which was ]ir?s ent, in the second inning when with two runners on he fanned Parrish and Harrison. Both teams fielded fault? lessly, the feature catch being made by Parrish, who pulled down a long foul in the first inning for the third out; with three Princeton men <.n the sacks.
