"Looks grent, eh?" commented

Another Imxlng amnion ensued.
Then old Fitz suddenly shifted and

Those who control racing's nffalrs
In the Empire state paid out $1,910,
104 in purses to horse owners In 1922.
That num Include distribution at the
tlvo track Belmont, Aqueduct, Km
1iiie City, Jamaica and Karatoga dur
ing the 152 days of racing. The aver
age puree per race was about $2,100.
Tsn't I peculiar that through the
yrar they've been trying to find out
what's the matter with Yale that they
, haven't ever decided
Maybe the other teams have better
players!
Every time a Ynle eleven is whipped
they begin to find fault with the conch,
the trainer, the rubber, the alumni,
the quarterback's Intellect and much
else, .
But never has It occurred to the
folks in New Haven that Yale has
been kicked around for yearn simply
because it player are inferior to
those of Princeton, Harvard, Iowa and
tome of the other outfits.
It seems time that they quit pick
ing upon Tad Jones and his coaching
system and started to bewail the fact
that for nearly a decade Yale hasn't
had a single member enrolled among
the truly greats and that the Yale
moleskinners, as a whole, have been
just ordinary.
Jack ISentley, who cost the Giants
$65,000, departs from Baltimore label

"A sucker for a low ball."
"Too sensitive to stand harsh criti

For New York In the home of xivtt
berries. livery time u Princeton footballer
picks up a loose flock of pigskins uud
races yimls, and moio yard down
a field, often with touchdown reriiilt,
quite a few folks arise to remark:
"Ain't they a flock of lucky
ginks.'"
Which Indictment In riot true.
Princeton player have nmde his
tory through the trick of picking up
fumbles and running nwuy with them,
not bcailHe of luck, but becnUNC
they've been trained to do It.
Ordinary footballer:-", seeing a ball
bouncing around without an .owner,
promptly hurl themselves upon It
and are merely content to secure
possession of the ball, wit limit at
tempting a gain. The Tiger sys
tem Is different and infinitely su
perior. "Get the ball and then run with
It," is the Princeton slogan.
So Princeton men the Ham Whiten,
the fiddle Drlsoolls and all the others
are ever alert for o loose ball. And
when they find one, they don't fall
on It. They pick it up and carry It
n far an they can toward tho other
ft lllows' line.
When other coaches and teams
learn tho Princeton system of "pick-up-and-then-sprint,"
there'll be more
of those lucky guy catalogued with
men of old Nassau.
"Kid" Schlaifer Shows There's No

battle, but with a draw nerving as a
soothing ointment, Alorrlo Bohlulfer

Davenport, la., where he distinguish
ed himself last night by holding his
own against Billy Wells, Kugllbh

Schlaifer, after a two months' ab
sence from the squared arena, fought
his usual slam-bang, riptearing bat
tle, with the result that the grcately
touted Englishman at times was
forced onto the defensive.
Davenport fan went wild In the
final round, ths tenth, when the two
battlers stood toe to toe and slugged,
each taking his quota of blows on the
jaw.
And Morrle can still take 'em. He
