Second baseman Pratt ‘ of the
Browns is one of the smartplnyers.
yet he was guilty of‘an ivory blunder
yesterday that made everybody laugh.
With two men out‘ln'the' third inning,
Pratt rammed a two bugger to right
ileld. Walker raised a high fly for Gil—
hooley. Pratt. , believing that only
one man had been retired, stood at the
middle bag prepared to rush to third
base after the catch. No sooner had
the ball settled iii-the little flelder‘s
mitt than Pratt raced; cap in hand, to
third, and then. urged on by the coach-
er, scouted for the plate. -Wh_en he
suddenly saw his mistake, Pratt rappJ
ed the top of hlsdome with his knuck-
les as he walked out to his position.

FOOTBALL ls BEGINNING To STIR
THINGS.

About 25>candidates responded to
Capt. Eustls’ first call on Andrus field,
Middletown. and it is expected that
Wesleyan will have at least 40 men
in uniform by the end of the week.
The graduation of Bacon, the All.
American quarterback. and of several
heavy men of the class of 1913 leaves
the team crippled, onlyfour of last

‘ season’s regulars being available, so

some hard work is in order before the
Yale game, the 24th.

The workout was very light, but
Caiit. Eustis expressed himself aswell
satisfied. Today the practice will be
under Coach “Dan" , Hutchinson, a
former Pennsylvania star, who is to
arere with two assistant coaches.
Prof. Fauver, the trainer, is expected
at any time. Under so competent a)
staff it is hoped that a machine can
be whipped into shape in time to
make a creditable showing aaginst

Yale. The material is light. and fast, "

but not all of it is experienced. Nut-
tell and Morsell are both strong lino.
men who have been ineligible in the
past and who are now available. lrv-
lug. captain of the track team, gives
promise of making a last man in the
back field. Ex-Capt. Bacon's position
at quarter will be hard to fill. but
'Rnss and MacKenzie show some promv
lse. «017- last year’s freshman team

Eustls at end and Hingeley and Dest-
jen behind the line are valuable men.

He is of powerful build. weighs 190
pounds, covers the lilil~yard dash in
10 flat and is a very strong punter.

Cornell‘s football team reported
yesterday for Its first football prac-
tice of the season. lleud Coach Al
Sharpe gave the men a preliminary
lecture yesterday afternoon. which
was followed by an hour of outdoor

falling on the bull. Assistant Coaches

trying to puzzle Cree in the eighth

SUNDAY BOXING IS
- ALLOWED IN ENGLAND

it Is seldom that boxing matches
are scheduled before a club on'the
Sabbath day. but there is one club in
the world where fights are held on
Sundays only and that is the good rold
town of London. England. There is
no regularly organized club 'iu any
part of the world—that is in the large
boxing contour—where a match would
be tolerated on the Sabbath. and for
that reason It makes this one come
What of a curiosity. It is called the

‘Judeans club. and is patronized whol- ‘

Iy and solely by the followers of the
Jewish faith. Some tine bouts are
held there on Sunday afternoons, and
while the purses are not large, the
club gets good boys together and has
tunnod out some splendid boxers dur-
ing‘the five years of its existence.
The authorities of London know of the
club and thefiunday shows, but they
simply pass it by and pay no attention
to it.

The latest stir by Jack Johnson in
Europe is the report that he will take
to aviation and enter some of the big
races in France and Belgium. Jack
went over to Brussels and made a
big talk about how he was a great
uviator‘ and that he was after a big
aeroplane to enter in some of the
races. Jack probably forgot.that in
Europe they are very strict-as to who
gets licenses to run an aeroplane:
that is, not barring of color. but the
tests are severe before the governing
body will grant a license. and'every
one who enters a public race moot
must have a license before. he or she
can start. The tests are becoming
more severe, too. every year, and if
the colored champion tries the game
he will find it difficult to get his li-
cense. But banish the thought. Juck
will never take a chance on flying
through the air as long as he can In
duce some club to put up a purse for
a light between himself and some oth-
er hcuvywclght, even ‘Sam Lungi‘ord.
And this follows the report that 'l.il
Arthur" has just agreed to meet the

Tar Baby in ‘il‘rance a week before.-

(1hristmaa. You can gamble that Jack
needed the cash, otherwise he would
have made Samuel wait, for be has
not much love for the Tar Baby from
Boston. The time will give Johnson
plenty of time to train and list in con—
ditlou. but the (location arises: Will
he train and be In shape? if Jack is
in good shape he will give. silaipuol
some argument and no inlistaliu. but
Glam will have it on him in ago and
condition.
