18 NASHVILLE TENNESSEAN and The Nashville American, SUNDAY MORNING, FEBRUARY 7, 1915. M. B. A. FIVE WINS FROM COLUMBIA McCORMICK MAY PLAY FIRST SACK Husky Forward.

I gSEEgj "The Home of Better Clothe" In a fast and snapp" game of basketball, the Montgomery Bell academy defeated the Columbia military academy Friday night in tue Columbia bovs' gvm, by tlie score of 32 to 18. 1'he Montgomery Hell boys took tho lead and the Columbia boya never could overcome this lead. For Columbia mil-itarv academy Watley played a brilliant game, ringing un all eighteen points for his toam. For Montgomery Bell there was no individual' star, aa the whole team plnyed well.

0. (Spo-elal.) Maimner "Moose" MeCormlek of tlie Lookouty refused to -et worried over tho tlm-ntH of Harris, tho big llrst sucker from the Michigan clan, not to report to the local clan. The Lookout pilot calmly states that If Harris docs not put in an appearance hu will play first himself. MeCormlek likes tho Initial cushion and is not entirely now to the position. Ho played first In one gamo hero last season and has nhvays liked the task.

It will not bo absolutely necessary for MeCormlek to plav :lr.st even if HnrrlH fails to report. The Lookouts still have Harry Shanley on tho roster, and the former Turtle was "a first sacker first of all. Sliauley broke into tho -game ns a first baseman immediately after leaving coltege, and worked at slort find In the outlleld only under pressure. Harry would like nothing better than an opportunity to cover first for tho Lookouts during the lfllii season. Harris' objection to coming to Chattanooga is understood to be entirely a matter of ylary.

The Mlehlgnnder 'whs the recipient of rather extravagant praise In the Cincinnati papers while Bill Phelon and his associates thought that ho was fo bo a -redleg, und the boostti evidently convinced him that he was entitled to a major lenguo salary.

BRADLEY WALKER, FULLBACK, NASHVILLE A short time ago we pried into the football career of a man whose college! no longer plays football, or at least very little.

And now we conio to man who made a big name for himself in his day ami time, whim; college' also has done but little in a football way sine then; in fact, the L'nivcrsity of Nashville does not put out any kind oi a team any longer and has not tor quite a number of veara.

other Nashville-bom Vnd bred boy, and on who resides there still. Aside from the fact that his old col-lego no longer plays the game, there is another peculiarity about Walker coming up before the mind's eye in this 'hall of fame and that is that be was yet another fullback. Thus we havo- already selected three fullbacks for nicho in tho wall, and before wo finish it is plain to me that we shall have to admit at least two Tho University of Nashville was playing football as curly as 1805, but the team of 1807 was tlie first good team they put forth. After that they slumped again for awveml yeara, but in 1901 they again forced themselves into tho spotlight and gave Vandcrbllt an awful run of it for the championship. -That was about the last of football at Nashville, which institution hasjiow become, I believe, strictly a normal school.

Hut we are not hero concerned with the history of the game at any Institution. It is the bioguiphy of Walker ttiat claims our attention. In lSl'O Walker begun to be heard of its a somewhat promising player, but his team, played so few games that but FIRST GAINED few folks got the PROMINENCE opportunity Unit fall AGAINST to see him in ac- SEWANEE. tion.

Sewanee simply could not stop him at all, and that's how they lost tho game. 'Twas but' a week later that I had a chance to see this demon dig nls toes into the hard clay, and that was against Tny Auburn eleven, which I took up to Nashville to play against Walker and his teammates on a Friday, while the very next day we were scheduled to Flay Sewanee on the mountain the irst, last and. only time I have ever consented to a team of mine playing two games in two successive days.

On the Nashville team -was also a very fine 'halfback by name of Kuyken dull, and Harvey -Fletcher (brother of Mike), who had played with my own Auburn team two years before, was short, it was a mighty good team we. were facing, as wo Weil knew, anyway, from the fact that they had already-downed Sewanee.

A. Biz good games of indoor baseball were played. In the first game between Head and Bucna Vista, Head jubt romped all over liuena Vista, by 74 to ll. Miss Banks made 2 homo runs for Buena Vista. Miss.

Gardner made some classy hits for Head. In the second game, Howard beat 'Rosa by just two runs, the score being 10 to 8. Many brilliant plays woro made by both schools, as well as iu batting. These two teams were as evenly matched as any teams, yet to be brought together. This game aroused more interest than either of the other two.

Most of the time the spectators were on their feet. When a team with just seven players comes near beating a team of nine play-era they are playing some. Well, this is juat what Trimble did to Warner. Although-Warner beat by a score of 30 to 22, Primblo gave- them tho fight of their lives. Miss McMurray played a dandy game.

Miss Denis played both fields, as well as second base. Warner did not have but two of their old players, and these were Miss Connor and MJsb Dyer. Many of the schools hare lost their beat players by promotion. Below are tho lineups: BUEJA VISTA. Pos.

life, against us, and Kuykendall also stiek his knife under our fifth rib more t'han once. But these two were but as mosquitoes to a rattlesnake compared to the way Walker struck at us. Ho was about 8 feet 3 inches tall, and ho must have weighed close 'to 200 pounds even then. And he could coil up just like an bid rattler, and' dart into the rush line about as quick as one. At least, our men never seemed to see him coming until he had his gain made and was up at 'em again.

I remember one especially fine march they made against us early In the game, in which Walker WALKER WAS figured about 1)9 per EASILY ONE cent of the time OF GREATEST and tlie wav. A PLAYERS. team had only to moke five yards in three downs then, and I thought our boys would never stop him. He took the ball all the way from his own five-yard lino to ours; and then they had a fumble or a muddled signal and we got fhc ball. Our boys were so scared up by that time that they evidently made up their minds then and there they were never going to.

let that Walker team 'have it again. And so we turned loose our gun, Who was none other than Jim Pen ton, the ex-Virginia guard, and who was playing the position of fullback for us. Well, we beat them, 14 to 4, but the recollection of Walker's work is still so fresh in my mind that, though I never saw him play again, I have no hesitation whatever in declaring that he was undoubtedly one of the twenty-five best men that Dixieland ever saw. The next year Walker went to Michigan, but, I understood, he found a negro playing there on the team, as had Williams at Harvard, so lie went from "there to the University of Virginia, wiiere no muuu tiiu vurauy itjuiuub mry trouble, and became one of. that institution's most famous players.

Walker has since refcreed and umpired a very great many games in the south, and ho became about as HAS REFEREED prominent in that AND UMPIRED capacity as' anyone' IN MANY down here. He -is an GAMES, even larger man than he was when I saw him play, and ho was verv agile and a wonderful sprinter. His athletic build and carnage he retains today, and as a highly successful, lawyer in Nashville, he still cuts about; as fine a figure, even in as lie did years ago In football" For several years he was connected with tho Nashville basebaJl club, but severciThis connection with them several years ago.

MENKE'S GOSSIP OF THE MAJORS By FRANK G. MDNJCE.

NBW YORK, Feb. BUI" Donovan may do a littlo pitching now and then for his Yankee pang- this summer In easo of need. "I'm a bit old just a bit" confcsaen "Wild Bill," "but I think my wins Ib still in such shape that I could call on it for relief duty. Of course, I wouldn't attempt to pitch a full Kume. but I jtuohs I could work a few inning every so often and keep tho opposition in checlc.

"Ward, who owns the Brooklyn Federals, up a New Yor newspaper ofilce immediately after bo lrtirned about the subway accident in Now York some- weeks aso in which 700 porsonH were overcome. "I want to tell you that I had nothing to do with that accident," said Ward, after introducing himself, "I hod nothing whatever to do with it" "Who HiUd you had, Mr. Ward?" asltcrt tho surprised sporting editor.

Getting back to "Wild BllV Donovan tho Yankee manager.

Well. "Wild Bill" baa a nose. Nearly everybody bus a noso, but few have noses like "Wild EM." His noso is not tho kind that can bo called classic aud Bill Is Bort of sensitive about it. Somo years ago when Donovan waa pitching regularly. Itollto Zeider landed on one of Bill's shoots for a single.

As bo anchored at first, Zeider. trying to "kid" the "Wild" party, said: "Say, Bill, how did that drivo escapo your nose?" Donovan walked over toward first, got alongside of SScldor, looked at his nose very, very carefully, and then said loud enough for grandstands ears: "Rollte, if I had your nose full of nickels I would bo a man."
