Coach Mullins is Drilling His
Charges For Game With -Newcastle Five. Coach Mullina is putting a njetal razor edge on his basketball equad this week In preparation o meeting the Newcastle quintet Friday night on the Coliseum floor. An attempt is being made to remedy the Blow thinking action as displayed in last Friday's game. It is the policy of the Coach to play a non contact game as fas as possible, thus making a faster and better team. - Tn practice Monday night Simmons did not show his usual form, on account of a boil on his knee, but it is thought however, that he will be able to play next Friday night. The strength of Newcastle is not definitely known. In games with the Mur.cie and-Knightstown teams, Newcastle lost to each wl'h. a score of 2713 and 11-8 respectively. Owing to a rivalry between the two schools, Newcastle always comes well supported by the student body of that Fchool. ,

STALLINGS AND TWO OF HIS PRIZE-WINNERS George Stallings, leader of the once world-beating Joston Braves, hasn't wen the glory he would like in baseball througlrthe past three years and so he has turned his attention to other fields. Cattle raising is George's hobby in the off season and he seems to have been more successful with cattle recently than with ball players. At the Southeastern fair, in Atlanta, Ga., a short while ago, the best of his entries grabbed most of the prizes. .

George Edward Sanford, football coach at Rutgers college, is pointed out in the east as one of the greatest coaches In the game. Rutgers' performances on the gridiron this season have been - such as to bring great credit on Sanford, who has built up a wonderful football team out of very ordinary, material. It has been Sanford's argument for many seasons that method is the thing in building up a football team and not material. What he has done at Rutgers this season leaves little room for argument on the point. Rutgers college has an enrollment of just 400 students, a handful cpmpared to many of the eastern universities, and like every other school in the country it has given its men
generously to the war. Just the same, Rutgers has one of the best elevens In the east and its one defeat this season, at the hands of Syracuse, occurred at a time when the Rutgers line was not thoroughly formed. Rutgers has defeated Lafayette 33 7, Fordham 28 0, and Ursinus 25 0. None of the men in the Rutgers lineup have ever played at any other schools and instead cf trying to bring stars from other schools Rutgers forbids the practice and makes the most of the men on hand. There are no individual stars in the Rutgers line-up, but the team has a perfect system and it is that development of such a system that brings applause to George Edward Sanford. Charley Street, former American
i league catcher and more recently in
; the Southern league, has enlisted in! j the army and he has picked about (the most dangerous job he could find, j He has been assigned to the gas and j
flame division after declaring a pref-j
erence for the work. Catching foul tips has made anything else look easy to Charley. Branch Rickey of the St. Louis Cards is also a football coach, as some of you may have forgotten. Rickey is a graduate of Ohio Wesleyan University and coached the baseball and football teams there several years before moving up in the baseball world. Recently Rickey returned to his alma
i mater to do a bit more football coach

Reggie Walker, celebrated as the
greatest sprinter in the world, hasj been wounded at the front. Walker j came into his world-wide fame in 1908 j
! at the Olympic games at London when ! J he ran In the 100-yard event and defeated Bobby Kerr, the famous Canadi Ian, and James A. Rector of the Unt versity of Virginia, who represented i America. Walker upset all calcula- ' tions In winning the event and was j regarded thereafter as tho greatest 1 sprinter the world had known. j Ed Walsh, former White Sox pitch- ! ing star, is also a student of football j and at present is bossing a team in I his home town of Meriden, Conn with j some success. Recently Ed's team
played one of the teams at Camp Devens'and turned in $300 for the soldier boys' athletic fund. While In Boston Ed forgot football for a moment to talk south-paw pitching and he declared that in all the ime he had been in baseball he had never seen two lefthanders on one club with- ail the stuff of Nehf and Tyler of the Braves. Stallings has two wonderful southpaws in these pitchers and you can say all you please," said Ed, "about Schupp, Benton and Sallee, but I'll talk about Nehf and Tyler and no one will hear you."

Harry McCormick, former outfielder and pinch hitter of the New York Giants, is now an officer in the U. S. army and is near the front lines In France. McCormick got his military training at Plattsburg. He recently dropped a line to Governor Tener telling about how he had landed in France and about things generally. Ball players who have been called into the service and are now in the training camps all seem to be making good at the war game. -'Either they are more used to discipline than the average or in better physical shape because most every ball player the national army is now a sergeant or corporal.
