CUBS'HOPES GIVEN BOOST Chicago.

DEAN OF GRID COACHES IS 68 Chicago, Aug. 16. (U.R) —Amos Alonzo Stagg, "the grand old man »f the midwav," today celehrattd his 68th birthday at his home near th- University of Chicago, where he has served ns director of athletics since the school was founded In 1892. "Yes, I'm 68 years young today and fit as a fiddle," Stagg told the United Press. “I fee] as good as I ever did and haven’t ev- n thought of retiring. Don't be surprised if you have to come down and ask me that same question 36 years from now. 1 intend to continue as athletic director and football coach at Chicago as long as I'm in good physical condition and I think that will be quite a long time.” Th n to prove his physical fitness. the veteran coach went out on the tennis court and played his daily game against his youngest son, Paul, Maroon quarterback. "I don't object to this 'old man' talk, but it's all rathsr foolish," said Stagg. “A man becomes old when he is physically unfit. "The ho ly is a machine and you must understand your macliin to keep young. I understand mine and don't abuse it with tobacco, alcohol, caffein or other poisons and I exercise to keep th-> machine functioning properly. Stagg, the oldest active collegeathletic coach in America, was born August 16, 1862, and spent the early years of his life at West Orange. N. J. He entered Yale in 1884 and pitched the Blue to five successive baseball championships, i Although noted as a baeball player, his performance on the grid- 1 •on won him an end position on 1 Walter Camp's 1889 all America team. Football always has been his fav-1 orite sport and during his career as a coach he has seen his "pet”, game advance from a scarcely tol-| erated sport to America's most popular game. When he entered Yale, Stagg planned to study for the ministry but an analysis of himself, by himself, convinced him he was not fitt-, ed for the pulpit. After leaving Yale he refused many offers to ; play professional baseball and entered the Sprinfleld. (Mass.) Y. mJ C. A. college to fit himself for al position as a Y. M. C. A. physical director. * When Professor William Rainey Harper of Yale started organizing

Chicago university, in 1891, he persuaded Stagg to become director of 1 the department of physical culture; and athletics, but the rank of asso- i elate professor—the first time an athletic coach ever had been granted academic ranking. Stagg took up his duties at Chicago when the university opened in 1892 and has served continuously since that time. In addition to coaching football for 38 years, he coached track for 32 years, baseball for 21 years and basketball for one year. Stagg was a leader in the organization of the western conference and always has been a crusader to keep amateur athletics on a high plane. He sponsored the one-year residence rule which eliminated “migratory" athletes and takes special pride in the fact that the ■ famous Carnegie Foundation “Bui- 1 letin 23,” issued last year, named Chicago as one of the few schools handling athletes without proselyt- j ing. The stocky little gray haired coach is perhaps the best known sports figure in the middlewest and it is said of him that every athlete who has been graduated from Chi- ] cago knows that his university course earned for him at least one lifelong friend — Amos Alonzo Stagg. o ” BASEBALL BRIEFS * • » The Chicago Cubs were faced j with a fine opportunity to increase their lead in the National • league today when , they opened a series j with the Phillies. While the Cubs were taking on the cellar holders' n a double-header the Brooklyn j Robins met the tough Pittsburgh Pirates and the New York Giants continued their series with Cincinnati. The Cubs moved two full games out in front Friday when they defeated the Robins 4 to 3 after 10 innings. It was the third defeat of the series for Brooklyn. Carl Hubbell allowed but four singles as the Giants blanked Cincinnati 5 to 1. The win placed the Giants but one and one half games back of Brooklyn. Pittsburgh and Philadelphia divided a double bill, the Pirates taking the second game 3 to 2 in ten innings after dropping the first 7 to 5. Fred Bricknell, one time Pirate, scored three runs and got thiee hits, one a triple, in the first game. The St. Lou.s Cards made it 1 three out of four over the Boston Braves by winning the fourth game of the serifs 8 to 4. All American league games were rained out.
