Armory as Aid to Recruiting
Cumberlahd Is
Again in Field
For Big Fight
Little Maryland Town Ready
to 'fBid a Million" for
Dempsey-Carpentier Bout
By W. J. Macbeth
The 9th Coast Artillery, 125 West
Fourteenth Street, ls about to cut into
the fight melon along professional lines
?that is, professional talent will be
emp'oyed. The receipts will not be used
professionally?i. e., for professional
promoters?but-accrue to the regiment
al and company funds, as well as to ad
vertising and recruiting purposes, to
put the company ir to full strength.
Professional talent will provide the
featuie of the entertainments, which
will be held w'eekly. But thia profes?
sional talent will be confined to-mem?
bers of the regiment. In this way a
premium is placed on the advantages
te accrue to professional boxers for
joining the militia. None but those
who enlist for a year will be permitted
to ghare the purses.
The boxing shows, however, will be
open to the public, and as the 9th Coast
Artillery Armory will be able to ac
eommodate approximately 9,000 at each
?how, this new club is likely to prove
one of the most popular in the city,
now that Madison Square Garden is
aark to the glove wielders.
Many Pugilists Enrolled
Colonel John J. Byrne, of the Na?
tional Guard, will supervise the pugil
igtic entertainments of the 9th Coast
Artillery. The scheme to attract real
fighting men and their friends has al?
ready met with unqualified success.
Jlore than a hundred "pugs" have been
enrolled by the regiment as a result
of the new scheme. Some of them pos
sess class. In the main, they run to the
preliminary order, those who have lit?
tle opportunity to advance in the pro
fession. but who can always furnish a
food aecount of themselves with their
"dukes."
Certainly the militia management,
with little or no expense save purse
money, should be able to provide at
tractive purses that might lure a num?
ber of even the topnotchers into the
regiment
The coramodious armory will permit
shows at popular prices, ranging rom
80 cents to $2. The main events will
be of fifteen rounds, with semi-finals
of ten rounds and a number of six or
four round preliminaries. In the pre
liminaries the youngsters of the di
vision will be given every opportunity
to develop themselves.
The opening show >jf the 9th Coast
Artillery will be held one week from
to-nignt. ln the fiiteen-round final
"Babe" Sullivan, of Greenwich Viliage,
will box Johnny Summers, the A. E. F.
welterweight champion. Ralph ("Kid")
Sullivan, who as a member of the
Paris division won the bantamweight
class, will box Billy Marlowe, of Rock
away, in the ten-round semi-final.
Cnmberland Again Pops Up
Cumberland, Md., which appreciates
the .<'!v;-.ntages of advert.sing, has put
in its bid for the Jack Dempsey-Georges
Carpentier heavyweight championship
next July 2.
John W. Snyder, promoter and hotel
man of the peaceful Maryland com
munity that would like to be talked
about, was in consultation with Tex
Rickard yesterday afternoon. This is
the same Mr. Snyder (if memory
serves) who was very"much on the job
the time Richard was promoting the
championship battle between Jess Wil?
lard and Dempsey that eventually went
to Toledo. Mr. Snyder talked as loud
and boldly then as he is talking now.
Mr. Snyder arranged a conference
with Richard for this afternoon, in
which will sit Mayor Thomas W. Keen
of Cumberland and Phil W. Blake, sec?
retary of the Chamber of Commerce of
that city.
"Rickard'3 terms can never stop us,"
said Mr. Snyder, who is registered at
the New Grand Hotel, last night.
"We are prepared to take the big
match on a percentage basis, to buy it
outright, or to cooperate with Mr.
Rickard in staging it, ofFering him a
very liberal percentage for his end on
the side. It strikes me as a bigger
attraction than the Johnson-Jeffries
contest, and the public for a hundred
miles around Cumberland would patron
iie it liberally. It will take more than
a million to stop us," concluded Snyder.
Miners Eager to See Bout
According to Snyder Cumberland and
?nvirons could stage the show proflt
ably without assistance from the silk
stockinged element of the big Eastern
cities. The Maryland city is situated
in the coal regions, and according to
the emissary the miners are just spoil
i?g to scramble for the most expensive
seats. He insists that, there is no
chance of possible interference from
Governor Albert C. Ritchie or his staff,
?? all these officials are pulling hard
to land the plum.
From what could be learned the
Maryland delegation which will appear
before Rickard to-day is prepared to
BO several hundred thousands of dol
l?ra better than Montreal. The Cana?
dian metropolis is reported to have of
fered $700,000.
While Rickard was in the market for
? ?ite for the Willard-Dempsey battle
Cumberland, Md., appeared as an in
terested bidder and was always ready
J* (to the other fellow one better. On
Jhe showdown Cumberland never got a
tumblo. But Cumberland got a lot of
advertising. Perhaps the town wishes
to cspitalize the former experience. So
far as Rickard is concerned the more
tney come the merrier. Tex is sup
goaed to name his location by All
Kools' Day, and the first of April is ltess
than a week away. ?

The Two Sides of War
All ware are planned by older men
ln council rooms apart,
Who plan for greater armament
And map the battle chart.
Out along the shattered fielda
Where golden dreoms are gray,
How very young their facee are .
Where all the dead men Uiy. *
Gray hatred and solemn, in their pride,
The elders cast their vote
For this or that, or eomething else,
That sounds the yoarlike note.
But where their sightless eyes atare out
Beyond life's vanished joys,
I've noticed nearly all the dead
Were hardly more than boys.
Ty vs. Hans '
Ty Cobb's record as an Attacking Machine will never be approached,
so far as this generation of fan survivors count.
As a batter, base runner and runigetter his superiority is as wide as
the diameter of the new #un some telescope scout has just discovered,
Iassoed and measured.
But it is a debatable question as to whether Cobb will ever play in
?aniJ!a?e8 ? e8tabli8h ? many base hits as Hans Wagner put under
his Pittsburgh belt before he finally ceased firing.
To reach Wagner's mark Cobb will have to play in 700 more ball
games and make 650 more base hits.
This means that Cobb, starting his seventeenth campaign, will be
called upon to last at least five years more.
The wonder is that he has survived seventeen seasons when one con
siders the ternfic pace he has held over the long route.
Cobb is now thirty-five years old. He would have to remain in the
big league as a regular until he-was forty to pull up with the Flying
Dutchman, who hung on until he was forty-three.
It isn't an impossible turn. But at least it is not an even bet.
Doea It Pay?
| Opposing pitchers, through this fiscal spring and summer, may con
; sider whether or not it pays to pass "Babe" Ruth so often.
I^ast season Ruth scored 104 runs outside of his four-base blows and
many of these came from the multitude of passes that were crowded upon
him. His passes won about as many-ball games as his home runs did,
proving.that the pass exit was no part of a safe way out.
Ruth was passed 148 times last year. But many pitchers who re?
fused to pass him saved ball games by fanning the slugger, who is in no
sense mvulnerable to a fast, sharp-breaking curve.
No Successor
! Between the years 1900 and 1914 Walter J. Travis and Jerome D.
Travers held, between them, a mastery of the putter that no amateur in
golf has ever approached since.
They were marvels without a successor. Francis Ouimet is a very
hne putter, but not up to the Travis-Travers standard when this pair
were m the thick of tournament play.
Day in and out, the best amateur putter now in golf is Bill Fownes
? of Pittsburg, captain of the American team.
I Ouimet, at times, may fiare out with more brilliancy on the green |
; than Fownes can show, but the latter is a trifle the steadier
The putter did more to lift Ted Ray to championship heights at In-1
verness last summer than any other two clubs he carried in the bag As
: a rule, it is the good putter who does most of the eoilecting.
Whatsoever the courts may do with the blacklisted White Sox there
j are.extremely few citizens of this broad Repubjic now clamoring'to ex
I change places with them down the rest of the road. The world may be
upside down, but a fairly clean name still counts for a trifle.
This is the ultimate dirge refrain_
"Game postponed on account of rain."
"I have no intention of finishing last this season," says Kid Gleason.

Dr. Angell Gives His Creed
For Intercollegiate Sports
New Yale Head Points to
His Own Record While
a Student at Michigan
from a Special Correapondent
NEW HAVEN, March 25,?Instead of
finding President-elect James Rowland
Angell opposed to intercollegiate sport,
Yale undergraduates and alumni have
been delighted to learn that he is en
thusiastic in favor of organized ath?
letics, that he has a "creed" in which '
he Btates that he favors athletics for
all and that he has an intercollegiate
athletic record to his own credit.
Yale has never possessed a president
who was an intercollegiate athlete.
Presldent3 Porter, Dwight and Hadley
have been the only Yale presidents
since intercollegiate athletics were or?
ganized, and, while Presidents Porter
and Dwight took no active interest in
college sports, President Hadley has
enthusitistically fsvored them but
never participated as an undergradu
ate.
Dr. Angell on his visit here to meet
the Yale undergraduates last week
pointed?o,ut that he has taken part in
three branches of college sport, and
was pleased that as a slender, light
weight youngster he could get as far
into athletics as he was able to do.
He explained that he quit football after
a severe injury, which keythira on the
hospital list for months.
Played ln Three Sports
Dr. Angell said that he played on
the baseball, football and tennis teams
of the University of Michigan and that
he was tennis champion .'all four years
when he was in college. He was short
stop and second base on the baseball
nine. He felt that he was greatly aided
in winning membef*ship on the football
eleven by his drop kicking ability.
"Here is my atheltic creed," said Dr.
Angell, in discussing his possibie pol?
icy at Yale: "I want physical educa
tion of the most helpful kind for every
college Btudent, particularly for the
non-athlete, who ia often a bit neglect
ed. I want clean, honest, intercolle?
giate athletics, so conducted that they
not only benefit the men who compete
but that they also exercise a whole
liome influence on the entire academic
community.
"I want them so conducted that they
do not unreasonably invade the time
and attention of the members of the
teams and, as a consequence, prevent
their proper attention to academic
work. . ?
"If thera ?r? t? b? professlonal or
scmi-professional coachts I want men
sclected who are not only technicahy
expert, but who are men of unusually\
scund, fine character. I would rather
have a man of questionable character I
for almost any other university post I
than in that of athletic coach, for no- i
where else is the opportunity for |
fundamentally wholesome influence so j
gieat and nowhere else is pernicious I
influence or a coarse or immoral man j
so senous. Let me hasten to say that |
some of the cleanest and finest men I !
have ever known have been collere
coaches. ?
"This is my creed, in brief?on the
whole, it is the difference between the
sport and the sportsman. I have no
use for the sport and I have the highest
respect for the sportsman. I do not I
think that at Yale you will find me I
biased or close-minded. I expect to sit!
down with you and learn your game i
and play it with you when I have
learned it.
"I hope that it will not be long be- I
fore you take me to youTselves as a j
true Yale man. I am coming with en- >
thusiasm, not that I have any wares to |
offer which will make good any of the i
difficulties in which you think you find i
yourselves, but in the belief that this i
is one of the great moral and intel
lectual forces in this country and that'
it is my privilege to make that insti- j
tution the very best it can be for the
life of our day."

Indoor Tennis
Title Tourney
Opens To-day
Tilden and Richards to Play
Through in Doubles as
the National Champions
By Fred Hawthorne
The annual men's national indoor
lawn tennis championship tournament
will begin this morning on the board
floor courts of the 7th Regiment Ar
mory, at Park Avenue and Sixty-sixth
Street, with fifty-five competitors in
the ningles. Tho doubles will begin on
Wednesday, and both finals will be
played next Saturday.
William T. Tilden 2d, world's singles
champion, who is the present singles
and doubles champion indoors, will not
be able to defcnd his singles title be?
cause of a heavy cold, but he expects
to play through in the doubles, paircd
with Vincent Richards, who was his
partner when they won the doubles
honors last year.
Play will continue all day to-day and
be resumed on Monday, when another
full day on the courts will follow.
Thcreafter- matchea will begin at 1
o'clock each afternoon.
Ganley Is Going South
William F. Ganley, squash tennis
professional at the Harvard Club. in
this city, will leave for White Sulphur
Springs, W. Va., next Friday, to take
up his regular summer position as ten?
nis pro at the Greenbier Club. Ganley,
who is regarded by competent critics
as the coming squash tennis champion
of the world, will spend a good deal of
his time on the Greenbrier tennis
courts in preparation for his world's
championship match with Walter Kin
sella, the present titleholder, which has
recently been arranged.
Tilden, it might be said in passing, is
going to attempt another task when he
gets to Wimbledon than the mere re
taining of his world's championship.
Tho tall Philadelphian is a firm be
hever in the theory that a tennis
champion should play through in de
fense of his title, and he will ask the
authorities at Wimbledon to allow him
to dothis, instesd of standing out and
waiting for the winner of the tourna?
ment to come through to the challenge
round.
, "Big Bill" is more liable to win the
world's title again than he is to change
the complacent British viewpoint as to
how a tournament should be conducted.
Women Stars to Play Abroad
Mrs. Molla Bjurstedt Mallory, na?
tional indoor and turf court champion,
who will sail for England on May 7 in
quest of the world's singles champion?
ship for women, is going to play in the
doubles with Miss Edith Sigourney, of
the Longwood Cricket Club of Boston,
and the two should form a g:eat com
bination, since- Miss Sigourney has
shown decided improvement in her play
this winter, particulalry at the net
position.
If Howard Voshell, who has won the
national indoor singles championship
twice. in 1917 and 1918, can repeat at
the 7th Regiment Armory next week
he will secure permanent possession of
the big silver challenge cup. Vincent
Richnrds won the title in 1919 and Til?
den last year, but as the latter will not
defend this t me Voshell's chances look
considerably brighter than if the
world's tennis "ace" were in the com
petition.
Richards, however, seems the most
likely player to give Voshell trouble,
particularly if the great left-hander is
below his usual form, owing to his re
cent accident. It is unfortunate that
these two are on the same side of the
draw, for that means that one or the
other must go out in the semi-iinal
round, if not before. Frank T. Ander?
son, in the top half of the draw, has a
comparatively easy path to travel to
reach into the final round, and it would
not be in the least surpnsing to see
him as a finalist.
Last Indoor Tournament
The men'u indoor tournament at the
7th Regiment Armory will be JJie last
of the sanctioned tournaments on
board floor 'courts this season. There
will follow a. short period of idleness
in April and then the local season out
doors will get under way, the Harlem
Tennis Club's annual championship af
fair on the clay courts at 135th Street
and Eighth Avenue, being the first
event in the open.
Before the local season opens, how?
ever, the most prominent players in the
East will flit to the Southland to com
pete in the great North and South
championship tournament, with singles,
doubles and mixed doubles for men and
women schedulede. Mrs. Mallory, na?
tional woman champion; Misa Marion
Zinderstein and more than a dozen
other leading women stars will compete
for the honors, and also Vincent Rich?
ards, S. Howard Voshell, Dean Mathey
and perhaps Tilden, Williams and
Kumagae in the men's events.
The clay courts of the West Side
Tennis Club at Forest Hills were offi
cially opened for the season yesterday,
and there was a great turn out of mem?
bers anxious to take advantage of the
first outdoor session.
Chicago Churches Fight
Professional Pugilism
CHICAGO, March 25.?Thomas R.
Quayle, speaking for the Lake County
Law Enforcement League and for the
Federated Churches of Chicago, told
the legislative boxing sub-committee
at its meeting to-day that any form of
professional boxing "is vicious," de
nounced professional boxers as "poor
citizens" and finally ealled upon the
literature of the Iate President Theo
dore Roosevelt to testify "to the bru
tality of this sport."
Several professional boxers, inelud?
ing Charlie White, of Chicago; Bat
tling Nelson and Harry Forbes, sat
quietly taking in the speaker's arraign
ment, and when he had flnished briefly
renlied to his aspersions.
None cf the women who had been
invited to spcak on the proposed box?
ing law legalizing the sport in this
state appeared.

Chicago Revives Track Meel
CHICAGO, March 25.?The University

The event has not been held sinee 1917,

vision of the meet into two sections,
one for high schools and one for acade
mies and preparatory schools.
Racing and Boxing Boards
Of State Face Overhauling
Centralized Supervision
Over All Sports Urged
Among the Suggestions
From a Staff Correapondent
ALBANY, March 25.?The annual re?
port of the State Racing Commission,
submitted to the Legislature to-day,
makes no definite recommendations for
legislation, ncr does it comment on
proposals now before the Legislature
dealing with horse racing, such as the
Betts bill, which would impose a 12
per cent tax on racetrack meet receipts.
Tho report, however, declares that
there seems to be a general awakening
to the appreciation of the nec.essity for
breeding- good horses and that the re
vival of horse racing ia a tremendous
factor in this respect.
The report, in this particular connec
tion, points out that the aggregate of
purses and prize3 offered for racetrack
winnera la3t summer totaled $1,715,000,
as against $635,000 for 1919. There
were 148 racing days in the state last
year. They were divided as follows"be
tween the various tracks:
Metropolitan and Saratoga, 29 days
each; Queens County Jockey Club,
Westchester and Empire City, 30 days
each.
The fate of the present Racing Com?
mission, which consists of George W.
Loft, Henry F. Sinclair and James W.
Waddworth jr.. hangs in the balance,
as does that of the State Boxing Com?
mission, created last year under the
Walker act.
Suggestions have been made that all
state supervision over sports activities
be centralized in one general state
sports commission, which might also be
given jurisdiction over baseball games
and wrestling matches.
It is not known how Governor Millar
feels on this subject. Some time ago
overtures were made to have the Gov?
ernor confer on this matter with sports
writers of the various dailies in the
state to get the views of those who are
in actual touch with sports, and yet
without any personal interest in their
conduct.
It is probable that this conference
t may take place within the next two
I weeks. Governor Miller recently, when
j asked what his disposition was toward
j this suggested meeting, said he has not
changed his plans, but that he has been
too busy with other matters of vital
import to give this question thorough
considerationr
Presumptioii Wins

With Odds 30 to 1
HAVANA, March 25.?Presumption,
the twelve-year-old son of Golden
Maxim-Proud Duchess, sprang a sur-'
prise when he won the second race at

Hopkins Trails
James in First
Half of Match
Washington Golfer Leads
by 7 Up for Florida
Title; Jap Star Wins
By Ray McCarthy
ST. AUGUSTINE, Fla.. March 25.?
<Jeorge James, the sharp-shooting golf
star of the Columbia Country Club of
Washington, D. C, got a flying start
on the first round of the final match
for the winter championship of Florida,
here to-day, and is leading L; J. Hop?
kins, of the Old Elm ciub, by 7 up.
Hopkins, a veteran lefthander, has won
this tournament several times.
James played splendid golf in obtain
ing the lead. His driving was long and
accurate, his sport game was efficient
as well as effective, and his putting was
all that could be defcired. Hopkins was
erratic in his short game and somewhat
off in his putting. This is unusual for
him, as he is one of the best artists
in the country when it comes to per
forming on the greens.
The Columbian got off in front by
winning the first hole, and he held his
advantage to the end, gradually in
creasing his lead as the match prog
ressed. At the turn he was 4 up and
coming in won three more holes, which
left him 7 in front at the finish of
the eighteen holes.
The happiest golfer in this country
to-night probably is the little Jap star
of Princeton University, Shiro Akaho?
shi. In this his first tournament he has
managed to work his way through a
field of good players, ineluding Frank
Barret, the Hollywood Club star, and
to-day hc defeated W. P. Kent, of Chi?
cago, in the final round of the second
division
All in all, it was a big day for the
diminutive foreigner. For not only did
he win the prize, but after the match
he flnished making his first club, a
driver. He began work on the stick *
few days ago under the tutelage of
Dick Beattie, 'the clubmaker here.
Akahoshi played steadily, and al?
though he was erratic on some of the
holes, his round on the whole was ex
cellent. He was out in 43 to his oppo
neKit's 45 and Was 2 up at the turn.
He drove well and putted consistently,
but was inclined to be wild on his short
game. The cards:
Out?
Akahoshi.65563645 3--43
Kent. 74554556 4?46
In?

Chicago High Schools
Put Limit on Athletes
CHICAGO, March 25. ?Misunder
standings, growing out of action taken
by the principals' committee of the
Public High School Athletic League,
which at a meeting March 17 took ac?
tion to restrict the number of sports in
which students might participate, are
said to have caused much unrest in high
school athletic circleB.
The principals' committee was acting
to encourage more students to try out
for sports by making it impossible for
stars to "monopolize" all branches of
high school athletics, according to E.
C. Delaporte, assistant superintendent
of physical education.
There are six major sports in Chi?
cago high schools, according to Mr.
Delaporte. They are football, soccer,
basketball, swimming, track and field
and baseball. Because of the similar
ity of reiquirements to play football,
soccer or basketball, Section 11 of the
new rules concerns itself primarily
with these three sports.
The new regulations make it impos?
sible for a player to take part in more
than one of the three sports in the
same semester. It is also set forth that
no student may play basketball if he
has taken part in football or soccer.

Miss Cummings
And Mrs. Hurd
Tie for Medal
Pittsburgh Expert and Chi
cago Girl Lead at Pine
hurst, Each With 92
From a Svecial Correavcmdent
PINEHURST, N. C, March 25.?A
representative field of women golfers
played to-day in the qualifying round
of the North and South championship.
There was a tie for the,low gross be?
tween Mrs. J. V. Hurd, of the West
Moreland Club, of Pittsburgh, and
Miss Edith Cummings, of the Onwent
sia Club, of Chicago.
Mrs. Hurd and Miss Cummings each
returned a card of 92, it being the first
time in a number of seasons that some
of the contestants m the women's
championship here failed to break 90.
There were eighty starters and of this
number six qualified last fall in the
national championship at the May
field Club, Cleveland.
Miss Cummings is one of the most
promising of the younger players. She
had a splendid opportunity ?o win the i
medal, as she was even 5s for the first
twelve holes, but she hooked into the
woods from the thirteenth tee and did
not get out until her seventh shot.
She took a 9 for the hole.
?Chicago Has Strong Team
Miss Cummings played with her
clubmate, Mrs. F. C. Letts jr., a West?
ern champion and a strong player. Mrs.
Letts had a card of 94, as did Mrs.
Eleanor Harwood, of the Olympia
Fields Club, of Chicago. These three
women qualified in the national and
give the Chicago the strongest rep
resentation it has ever had in a North
and South championship.
Miss Glenna Collett, of the Rhode
Island Country Club, of Providence,
proved that she is one of the longest
women hitters in American golf. She
treated a large gallery to the finest
tee shots and long seconds ever made
here by a woman, and had she been
able to get down in two putts would
have made a low score. She took 9j$
and finished in third place, with three
putts on seven greens, and three shots
at three other holes, where she was
within twenty yards of the pin with
her second. She had no difficulty in
reaching the par four holes in two
shots, driving well over 200 yards.
Miss Collett and Mrs. J. V. Hurd
meet to-morrow in the first round of
match play, and this should be one of
the features of the tournanment. Mrs.
Hurd is not as long a hitter as Miss
Collett, but she has a very skillful
touch for the Pinehurst greens, and
the golfers here look for an interest
ing struggle between a long hitter and
a certain short game player.
Two Local Players Quslify
Only two golfers from the Metropol?
itan district made the first sixteen.
They were Mrs. J. D. Chapman, of
Greenwich, and Miss Kate Bowman, of
Plainfield. Mrs. Chapman did a 94 and
Miss Bowman a 99.
