"The game is a strenuous one, and the men have to be In the best possible condition. I handled the Iuf-ferns, of Orange villo, who twice in succession won. the lacrosse championship of Canada, and also the Tecumsehs, of Toronto, who finished second in the championship race twice in succession. "I now have offers to go to Canada next summer and train, manage and coach lacrosse teams. The Chippewas and Tecumsehs are both after me, but I may decide to remain in Pittsburg.

I would like to lumdle some major league team in the capacity of trainer. I am sura there is nothing more important than having baseball men in proper condition. I saw Sam Leever, of the Pirates, work here last fall when he was so stiff and stale that he could scarcely get up any speed at all. I am sure that if he had had an efficient trainer to work on him he would have been in much better shape for his work. "Different athletes require different kind of training, but the principle is always the came.

I had my hockey lada out yesterday, the chief part of the training being a long walk. I took Eddie Campbell out for a 10-mile walk, and made him take it at a good clip. "Walking is a fine exercise for hockeyikes. They get iota of good out of their practice skating. They become bunged and stiffened just like football and baseball players, and then it is necessary to start the muscle-manipulation, and I have always accomplished a lot of good that way." 50c.WH time to looking after his crocs at present.

In a letter to The Press a high school girl asks: Is hockey as gentle as football?" It. is generally agreed among the wise and the otherwise that hockey isn't parlor ping pong.

There are rough games and rough games, but few of them are any rougher than hockey. Bumps, bruises and gaping woundg are fully as frequent as In football. Cracks across the shins, cuts on the head, falls and mixups are common. Each player Is togged in trousers which resemble football garments, although cut high to allow -knee action. Swings at each other's heads, broken hands and bloody countenances enliven the game as it is played in some places.

Canadian hockey games were so bloody last winter that the police had to lo called In to quell the riot and carry off the broken-headed players.

SPECIALISTS, and IllTTPOIinfl fll ISnndsT. floor. ra niioDunu, ta. i io.4 There" Is one man In Pittsburg who thinks that a mistake is being: made in taking- Clarence Beaumont, the star center fielder of the Pittsburg baseball team, to Eastern specialists for treatment for Injured foot. That man's name is Christmas Clune, the professional athletic trainer recently engaged by Captain Sixsmith to condition the rlyeru on the Pittsburg International Hockey Leasue team.

"All the specialists In the woiM cannot cure' Beaumont," emphatically declared the Canadian, who has almost decided to make Pittsburg- his permanent home. "The only thing that will do Beaumont any Rood is this," and he imitatud the movements of the hands made by a masseur. "I'll -wager that I can put the big ball player in first-class trim by manipulation of the affected part," he continued, "and I don't think, a. specialist can do that much." Clune has a wide and varied experience in the handling of athletes. He has trained baseball, 'football, lacrosse and hockey players, oarsmen, wrestlers and pugilists.

Kdrtie Durnan, who coaohed Iew Rcholes at the time the Canadian won the diamond sculls at he Henley Regatta iji England, secured Clune to put Scholus into condition. The Sunday berore Scholes left for England, Clune worked him so hard that he dropped eight pounds 'avoirdupois, and declared lie never felt better in his life. "Lacrosse players are hard to train. BASEBALL BRIEFS. Morning reports from New York differed greatly from each other.

One paper had it that a conspiracy had been formed to oust President Pulliam and said that ho "wore a drawn, worried look all day," while another paper said. All is lovelv. and tbre is no look, of worry on President Pulliam' face." The New York baseball club held its annual meeting yesterday, and re-elected the old officers and directors. The treasurer's report showed that the Giants had had a remarkably successful season. The minors will today present the one-man draft question to the major leagues.

One of the things the minors are working for is representation dn the National Commission. "I don't know anything about going to Cincinnati." declared Ned Hanlon. "I don't know that Herrman wants me, and fo far as I know now I will bo with Brooklyn again." Al Buckenberger. the bid Pirate manager. Is with the National League magnates in New York.

The National league schedule will call for 154 games, just as last year. The Americans can go it alone on a shorter schedule if they have the nerve. Fred Clarke and Barney Dreyfuss are rejoicing over the announcement made by experts yesterday that the injury to Clarence Beaumont's foo.t is merely local, and not to be regarded as serious. The men who examined "Ginger" declared that he would be as good as ever next season. Baseball men in New York predict that there will never be a Tri-State team in Pittsburg.

Jlmmle Sebring says that TVilllamsport made the best showing of any team in the Trl-State Ieague last season, and yet it lost Christy Mathewson has his left arm In plaster cast. He claims he hurt it by colliding with a Pittsburg player in the first series the Pirates played at the Polo grounds last summer, but that it did not hurt him at the time. The National League rules committee is not likely to consent to any radical changes in the rules. They claim that the American wants the rules changed to cover up its players' defects in' hitting. Connie Mack, of the Athletics, favors a substitute batsman for the pitcher.

Another American Leaguer wants a man to walk on three balls. Others want the foul strike abolished. Barnev Dreyfuss declares a pitcher can do anything he pleases in the American League without being stopped. Some of them, he says, take a hop, skip and a Jump before delivering the ball. Pittsburg has four left-handed pitchers on its reserve list.

Jv i 3 xA V- Arthur St. Leger Mosse, head coach of the football team of the Western University of Pennsylvania, left Pittsburg this morning for his home near Fort Leavenworth, where he will spend the present winter and next summer. will you return to Pittsburg?" Coach Mosse was asked before his departure. "That is a matter that is very uncertain," he replied, "and depends entirely upon the action that may be taken at the meeting of the University Athletic Association, which, will probably not be held for a month yet." "Are you counting on returning to Pittsburg as university coach?" he was asked. "I am counting on nothing," he replied evasively.

"I will return if I am chosen, but I have done no, electioneering of any sort, and do not intend to do any. I have no one working in my behalf, and am leaving the whole business up to the committee. Whatever they do will suit me." Not another word on the matter of his return as coach at Wud could be secured from Mosse. He refused to discuss hifi chances. He said that through all the trouble that he has had to cope with during the season recently closed, he had maintained a position of dignified silence, and he did not intend to talk after the season was ended.

He said he was satisfied with what his team accomplished, considering the difficulties under which it was necessary to work. Mosee owns a lnrc-A fni-m noa xrv. Leavenworth, and will devote all of his ICY INKLINGS. BJg league hockey tonight. Pittsburg vs.

American Soo at the Garden this evening. Pittsburgers will this evening be given their first opportunity of sizing up Captain Sixsmith's men on the ice. Garnet Sixsmith will play right wing for the Pittsburgs tonight. Chaucer Elliott, of Kingston. will officiate as referee at the Pittsburg-American Soo hockey game tonight.

Tonight's battle on the ice starts "at 8:30, and will consist of two 20-minute halves, with 10 minutes intermission. In the Allegheny County League game last night at the Garden, the Colonials defeated the C. A. C. team by the score of 1 to O.

The feature was the teamwork of the -Colonials. Stephens made the only goal of the game. The first game in the International League was played last night at Calumet, between the Calumet and Canadian Soo seven, and resulted in a victory for the home seven by the overwhelming score of 6 to 0. Combination work was lacking, but great speed was shown. Shields put up a fine game for Calumet last night.

"Chief" Jones, of the American Soo seven, is supposed be the best goal tender playing hockey today. The East End seven beat the Bellefields in a Duquesne Amateur League game last evening, 5 to 2. East End now leads the league, having won both its games. Bellefield is second with an even break on two games. Brushton and Library have both lost the only games they have played.

The Ottawa Hockey Association is out to keep the game clean. In the East the Canadian Amateur Athletic Union stood out for strict observance of the rules until sports, especially in Montreal and Ottawa, became so tainted that a radical move had to be taken. As a result a provision was made that amateurs be allowed to play with pros, without losing their standing. Under existing circumstances the public and the hockey clubs themselves are merely victims of a hold-up game on the part of the players. The players demand their price and the club must pay them, on the side, of course.

And the public pay the price to the clubs in their quarters, half dollars and many times dollars. Winnipeg Tribune. Things are not quite so bad as that in this country, nor are the enthusiasts quite to "near" in, regard to money. The Argonauts, from Ottawa, look like the best lot. They have loads of material of the best kind, thoroughly tried.

The Winning papers are making an awful howl about Manitoba amateur standing. The following- is a sample: "The Manitoba. League may convince a certain amount of people that their organization is strictly an amateur organization, but if they would produce the proof it would give much more satisfaction." Sounds like W. J. yelling about W.

LT. P. so as to make themselves feel better after a beating. An effort was being made to bring the strongest clubs -of the Federal and the Canadian Amateur Hockey Leagues together. The Montreal Star devotes two columns to fake bulletins and burlesque news Items, among which is one that Andrew Carnegie had offered to build a new arena, A goal keeper to do his best should stay inside bis goal posts and not be drawn away except when his defense is away andhe must go out to stop the shot.

Coverpoint has all the advantages of a captain's as it is both offensive and defensive, and central beside. Allan Kent, formerly with Pittsburg, has asked for reinstatement as an rma-teur in the Manitoba Hockey Association; i Poor ice, caused by soft weather, has prevented much practice by the teams in the Interantional Hockey League. The American "Soo" players have had no work at all and will be handicaped in their opening series at Pittsburg. The Portage Lake ana Calumet clubs have been able to do a little work, as also has the Canadian "Soo." Cy Young said three years ago that his dread of spring training increased with the difficulty in getting down to playing weight, and more than once he had determined to retire rather than go through months of denial and suffering. I JIMMIE BRITT AFTER FIGHTS He May Have to Return the West to Get Buiy to New Tork, December 11.

Looking the picture of health and dressed in the height of fashion, Jimmy Britt arrived at the Grand Central depot from Buffalo yesterday. Britt finished up a 10 weeks' engagement on the road at Buffalo on Saturday, and after a view of Niagara Falls with some friends he packed up his trunks and started for New York. Britt said: "In the first place, I am in the theatrical business and glad to get back, to New York. In intend to remain in town for a few weeks, after which I will go back to 'Frisco, where I expect to get a fight or two in quick time." "Will you do any fighting in Philadelphia while you are in this vicinity?" the reporter asked. "If I am offered enough money to make it worth while boxing there I will engage in one or two battles.

To tell the truth, I would only be too pleased to meet Terry McGovern in a six-round bout before one of the clubs in Philadelphia, but as Terry and Nelson are matched to box a six -round bout over there I suppose my chances of getting Terry are very slim," replied Britt. "What are your chances of getting on a return match with Battling Nelson?" he was asked. "I am ready to fight Nelson at any time, and will bet him that I will beat him. I met Nelson in Cleveland and made hint this offer, but he promptly declined, which satisfies me that the chances of my getting a return fight with hime are ropeless," replied Britt. "Have you any offers for fights at present?" "Yes, I have two.

My brother sent me word yesterday telling me that he had received an offer for me to fight Young Corbett at Los Angeles next month, and another for me to fight "Willit Fitzgerald. I wired my brother to accept them, providing the bouts could be put back for a few weeks from the original dates." NO CATCHING FOR CHANCE Cubs' Manager Says He Will Never Return Behind the Bat San Francisco, -December 12. Frank Chance, captain and manager of the Chicago Nationals, was once a catcher, but if Chance has anything to say about it he will never go back behind the bat. Chance says concerning the hardships of catching as he found them: "I had known Bill Hanlon, who died recently from consumption, for years, having played ball with him when we were kids, so I knew him to be a good player, and spoke to Manager Selee about htm. The result was that he was signed.

Bill played grand ball, but he couldn't hit. The seeds of the disease were then in his system. So I began to play a position I have always fought against, even during the winter months, and I must confess that the longer I play it the better I like it, for I am in the game every day, and I never enjoyed playing so much in mv life, as I am seldom on the hospital list. This is very unusual for me for I never remember of catching a game since going to Chicago that at least one finger was not swollen stiff or I had a tape on one to keep it together. Several vears ago I had the second finger of my riht hand split open seven times in two months, and each time the flesh wa torn awav from the bone for half an inch This ought to be enough to make a piaver get out of catching.

I will never "want to catch again, for I tired of always getting hurt and being out of the game. Of course, there is danger of being injured in any rositxon. but catching is the most dangerous. Since I have been playing ball I nave been knocked senseless eight times, and three of- these times the doctors gave me tip: but I am still alive and good for a- long time yet. While catehing is a more dangerous position than first base, it is not harder, for a catcher- always has the play in front of him, which, of course, makes it easier, while the first baseman has plays coming from all sides.

A catcher with a pood arm and luck, has no kick coming, but I am catching long enough and have been hurt times enough to know that I can do more good to a team in some other position. At the start 1 found that first base Tothered my arm some. A catcher throws directly ahead of him all the time, wXfle a first baseman has most of his throws to his siae and has to get the ball away with an unaer-hand movement to make a fast play. Sympathy Xot Wanted. "Football is a great game for the player." says Bob Edgren.

"I played it mvself for several years, and against some of the roughest teams in the country. I had a twisted shoulder or two and a dislocated knee. But what of it? That all came out right in a few weeka. "Yes, it's a great game for the players, if it is distressing to the timid and rwprvous spectator. You eat like a wolf after a practice game.

Two thick porterhouse steaks with all the trimmings irake an ordinary dinner for you. You drink quarts of milk and oatmeal water. You don't drmk firewater at all or smoke, or in any other way try to stimulate yourself artificially. You feci strong as a giant. You sleep like a stone.

It is said that several contracts that have been sent out to the local American League players contain just the opposite of raises in salaries, and in consequence there will be mourning in more than one case. Bill Dineen says he will not play for the figure offered him. Boston Herald. It was given out that Fattee, the second baseman of Jersey City last season, had been drafted by "Washington, but it appears that he is on the list of the Brooklyn club. "Washington could have used this player to good advantage.

He did line work last season. Myron Grimshaw will winter In Buffalo. Ho is in first-class He says he would like to go back to his old love, and is very sore over his Boston experience. Doubtless Buffalo would be pleased to have him back again. Gilbert of the Giants is a devotee of golf.

Enough professional ball tossers have taken up golf to make a tourney something to be desired in the no distant future. Curiously, the New Tork Americans now have the only two Hahns ever In major league company. "To declare a base stolen when the player has slid over the bag is about on a par with declaring a man out when a fly ball has been dropped or a thrown ball muffed. No play is a play unless the result is successful." So says Jake Morse, the Boston sage. President O'Neill of the "Western "League says that Denver, Omaha, Sioux City and Des Moines all did well financially last season.

It is said that Von Der Ahe's old pitching standby, Theodore Breitenstein, gets per season, which is more than some major league players receive. A change of scene helps many a player. The St. Louis Browns will train at Dallas, Tex. Cannell of the Boston Nationals and his wife are at Medford for the winter.

Billy Thelan of Chicago says: "I notice In Cleveland exchanges that Lajoie will make almost no changes in his team in lfRHJ. That club will never win anything unless their veins are injected full of essence of ginger. With Larry out. the whole bunch curls and quits. They have no fighting spirit, and no red fire in their composition." One of the funniest of the after-season rumors was the displacement of Claude Ritchey, the second baseman of the Pitts-burgs.

A Buffalo writer took up the trail and remarked what a nice man he would make for that city. If Barney had any Inclination to allow the player to go he could get big money from many clubs. Boston Herald. "Billy" Nash, who was once retarded as the best third baseman in the country, and who created plenty of enthusiasm by his superb work in this city, still makes Boston his home. He looks well.

But for a pitched ball that hit him and injured him badly Nash would have re-malued in the game far longer than he did. Few players ever had more friends and fewer enemies. He is the same old "Billy" today he was in his baseball days. Outfielder Heidrick was a third baseman In Franklin. when Manager Ed Barrow, formerly of Paterson.

now of Toledo, discovered him and switched him to the outfield. Says Barrow: "The most trouble Heidrick gave me was when he was playing against my Detroit team. Never mind how far, high or low a ball was hit to center field, he wouM catch it if there was the least chance to make a play on it. Many a game he has beaten the Tigers while I was handling them, and more than once I have temporarily regretted having found and introduced him to professional baseball." "That man Clarke, of the Pittsburg, must be a bypnotizer. judging by the way he landed First Baseman Neaion." said Garry Herrmann yesterda v.

It is said that the Reds" manager will be neither Kelley r.or Carr. Another mystery to solve. The Reds will train at Marlin Springs, hear San Antonio. Tex. Recently Manager Tebeau.

of the Louisville Club, sent contracts to a counle of Michigan bush leaguers, in which he made provision that If they signed the paper, at their own option, they could purchase their release next fall for $2.50. The youngsters could see nothing philanthropic about Tebeau's proposition and turned him down cold. Catcher Bill Clark is said to have been offered by New York to several clubs that are shy on catching material. The Wheeling Club has secured "Pop" Schriver to replace Catcher Livingston, who will be given a trial by Cincinnati next spring. Schriver was with the Reds several years ago.

TO WRESTLE AT OLD PENN State College Matt Artists Will Buck Against the Quakers State College, December 12. State today accepted a challenge from University of Pennsylvania to a dual wrestling meet to be held in Philadelphia earlv in January, and Director of Athletics "Pop" Golden has issued a call for candidates for the White and Blue's wrestling team. Last Juno State lost her best middle weight wrestler, H. C. Offutt.

by graduation, but there is plenty of husky material here for a good team, and "Old btate feels confident of sending down a good bunch to the Quaker City. Basketball Manager M. B. King cannot announce his schedule for several days yet. as it has not as yet been approved by the faculty committee on athletics.

However, Manager King announced to The Press representative today that his list will include about 13 games. One eastern trip will be taken, also a western trip, on which journey games will be plajcd with W. U. West Virginia. Allegheny College and Geneva; while home games will probably be played these teams and several others; and Penn, Lehigh and Swathmore met in the East.

Prospects are bright for a fast five, as ex-Captain "Billy" Uunn is the only member of last year's team who graduated. Captain Heaton is a hard worker and can be depended upon to bring out both speed and teamwork from the present squad of candidates, numbering over 50. OLD BOYS OF INDIANA WILL PLAY SOUTH SIDE. The first big attraction on local floors will take place next Saturday night at Odd Fellows hall, on the South Side when the Old Boys of Indiana will line up against the champs. This is the only team that defeated South Side last therefore a great game may be expected, as the locals are fast rounding Into their old-time orm.

The vociferous claims of an easy victory being made by O'Brien's followers and the reports that Fitzsimmons has had several breakdowns since beginning to train have only tended to increase these fears. Is game old Bob the physical wreck which reports make him appear? Are his hands like bits of delicate chlnaware, and doe3 he need the assistance of a bellows to breathe? These questions and many others are running riot in the minds of the fight fans. Already many are beginning to look for a surprise, a cleanup as thorough as any in the history of the ring. The wise ones look for a killing. They cannot imagine husky Bob a pale, emaciated weakling.

Fitzsimmons would be to" wise to get int'o the (same ring with CVBrien were he in such poor shape. He knew fully what he was capable of before he agreed to fight O'Brien, and those who say they know will put up their little wad on the freckled one when the time comes. Fitz and his trainers have been careful to- give all possible publicity to his alleged poor condition. Bob never has a breakdown unless a good sized gallery is on hand to witness. He is something of a fox himself and does not care how much the odds favor O'Brien on the day of the fight.
