Opera Helps. "Opera helps we wrestle," ex plained Stanislaus. "Music is help ml and every man, no matter what he,, is or docs, must have something beautiful to help .him through life. Music is tny help. It gives me high ideals. Perhaps you think wrestlers do not need high ideals. Cut you are wrong.. "Both my little brother, Wladek, and myself have made. a study of various branches of music and har mony. We number among our fiiends quite a few grand opera stars. The late Enrico Caruso used often to enjoy a quiet game of chess with rue. "YVladek . and I have many hot arguments about musical technique. "When I was a little boy I began to have a liking for the better kind of music. I said then, 'I will iver ( be old,' and in eO'years from now 1 shall still be young. "My rules for success, jf you want to' know, arc determination, self-denial, unswerving purpose and hard work. I cannot eat all the food I would I ke to; I don't smoke, and 1 ' i6n't dissipate. I must keep regular, hours, and I must cling to ray un swerving resolution to Be "What I Planned. Educated to Be Lawyer. "I was educated to be a lawyer, but wrestling was in the blood of the men of my family." The wrestling champion was warming to his subject, and the re pt.ter thought this was a good time to get in the all-important questions: "How do you pronounce your name and what docs it mean?" "Ah-ha!" answered the Great One. "So that is what you want to know? Well 1 will tell you. My name rhymes with the name of a famous sweet American cracker, Nabisco.' It means strength and was bestowed by the king of Poland upon one of my ancestors years ago. "There is a tradition in our family that no defeat is ever defeat if one has played the game fairly and done his best It is no disgrace to be beaten if one has tried. The disgrace is not to try not to give one s best. . Music Necessary. ' "And music, beautiful, soul-stirring music, representing beauty that, too, must have a part in any kind ot success, even wrestling. . "Each" night, before I retire I ask mvself the questions "'Have I Succeeded 'ioilay.' . Although the wrestler did not go further it was unnecessary. 1 he real secret of Ks success was apparent in that question which he puts to, himself each night. . , , . ! He has the cosmic urge.

Cream of Running Stock to Compete for Purses Totaling $40,000 in Ak-Sar-Ben Races The ponies will gallop for purses totaling between $40, 000 and $50,000 at the Ak-Sar-Ben spring running races, May 27 to June 10. As a result of a 13-day running meet being decided upon instead of an eight-day meet, Ak-Sar-Ben is able to offer larger prizes, which will result in a better brand of racing. Last year's card was a feeler.. It convinced Ak-Sar-Ben officials the sport had a large following here and consequently a longer meet .was de cided upon for next spring. Charles L. Trimble, secretary, said he expected to get the cream of the Tia Juana, Havana and Xew Orleans tracks. t Ihe date of the meet will be May 27 to June 10, inclusive. This date was selected because it comes at the break between the southern and northern racing meetings. This will enable owners of steeds in the Tia Juana races to stop here on their way to eastern Canada and the horses which ..-have'-been racing at Havana, New Orleans and Ken tlcky to stop here on their way to the Canadian northwest meetings. Purses for 51,500. Between 350 and 400 'horses are expected to race in the "meet. The majority of the purses will be for ?400 to $500, but some special stakes of $1,000 and $1,500 will be interspersed during the 13 days' pro gram. Among the feature races will be the Ak-Sar-Ben derby; of a mile and an eighth; the Queen's Plate, six fur longs, and the Samson, . one mile handicap. The shortest race will be four fur longs a half mile and the longest will be a mile and a quarter. The remainder will be five, six and seven furlongs and a mile. Colgate Cagers Will Journey West for . Games This Season . Hamilton. N. Y., Dec. 7. (Spe cial. The Colgate basket ball sea son which opens ' next Thursday againsS the Clarkson Tech. quintet, includes a westerTI trip which is the most extended jaunt to be taken by any court team in the east. The success of a similar trip last season was so gratifying that Graduate Manager Reid arranged for games during , the Christinas recess which will take the Maroon five as far as Nebraska. Two games ..vyill be played at Omaha against Croightou university. Other teams which ar; to be met are Des Moines, Illinois Wesleyan, Chicago and Perdue. It is planned to play a return contest with the Creighton team which is making an invasion of the oast in March. This game will probably be staged in Utica.

Ill health caused the resigna tion. Griffith said, bat McBride will vv Reds Trade Grolr To World Champs Buffalo, Dec. 7. Hemic Groh will be with the world's champion Giants vhfii they start another pennant race. " Manager McGraw in Buffalo last night completed a trade with the Cincinnati Reds whereby he gave Cincinnati George Burns, outfielder, and Catcher Mike Gonzales for the little third baseman. After the deal was closed McGraw himself made the announcement. Several other National league clubs including Chicago, Pittsburgh and Brooklyn were bidding for Groh. The chances are that a bundle ot cash as well as the two good players went to Cincinnati in the exchange. Groh would have been with the Giants early last season had he not held out and refused to report to the Cincinnati club. Groh asked for so much money that Cincinnati re fused to listen. Some weeks later a deal was framed between the New York and Cincinnati clubs for Groh to go to the Giants. However, he was on the suspended list for failure to report and had to be reinstated. Judge Landis ruled that he could come back only if he would play the season of 1921 with the Cincinnati club. Heinie accepted the decision but the fans of Cincinnati were against him all season so it was thought best to send him elsewhere. Groh likely wil be stationed at third base.

In paying $75,000 for the sensa tional California first baseman and outfielder the Giants broke all rec ords in the matter of purchase price for a minor league star. The ab sence of drafting privileges, by which major league clubs formerly secured the pick of the minor league players at the close of the season, is in part responsible for the new record price. O'Connell was the most sought player in the minor leagues and a number of big league clubs were bidding for his services. Suit Over "Gibber" Race Horse Starts New York, Dec. 7.

G ommon oense Find the Spirit Within You. By J. J. MUNDY. At times, do you not feel it, that you will fill an unimportant place in ; the world: j And you wish you might do I something before you die that (would be worth while But nearly alwavs the something you think of doing is so big and dif ferent from anything anyone else has ever done and on such an enor mous scale thtat it is an impossibil ity before you attempt it. Why not think of doing some thing really within your power? Isn't your motive in doing '.he something big so that it will attract attention, not to make a better world through your living in it? Is it not true that when you think of accomplishments which you want to add to your life that you invariably think of the praise it would bring to you? There arc lots of things you might do but they wonld not create any great stir in the world and per haps that is why they do not in terest you. Is your desire for personal grati fication greater than vouywish to be of real service to those who need it? Why do you not do some of tlic little, "kind things which warm the hearts of the recipients though it may be noised about. (Copyright, !L'l; International Feature Service. Iin.)
