Jake Daubert, two years batting leader of the National league, and now starring for the Cincinnati Reds, re-calls an incident that happened tbe first year he broke Into baseball. Born at Shamokln, Pa., he worked In the coal mines, and finally got a chance to play with the Pottstown (Pa.) club In the state league. This was during the 1002 strike. He had a trial and fanned ten Sha-mokln batters the first game, being a pitcher in those days. He was but sixteen years of age. Was Recognized. ' "A few days later the Shamokln arid Fottstown Elks got up a game, and there was great rivalry," says Jake. "I was supposed to pitch the battle for Shamokln, and took "Tickets' Day-wai- t, my catcher, along with me. As I warmed up in Elkwood park, Potts-town- , the home Elks recognized me, and protested on the grounds that I was a pro because of that one game I had pitched for them. " 'Ill tell you what I'll do,' I said. 'Let Tickets pitch and I'll catch.' They agreed to this. I had caught a Uttle as a kid. "Well, to make a long story short, they had us beaten 12 to 7 at the start of the ninth. Their pitcher was over-confident and a combination of two walks and two hits scored four runs for us. This made it 12 to 11 against us with two out and a man on first. Over the Fence. "I came to bat. Our manager told me if I ever did anything to hit that bull. 'Do it now if you care for us,' he insisted. "I let the first one go by, and the second was right over. I socked It over the center field fence Into the deer yard for a homer. That made it 13 to 12 in our favor, and we held them safe that half of the round. All Denomination!, T Writ for CaUlogu. ' Salt Laka City """ 1" BUSINESS COIXEGKS L. D. S. BUSINESS COLLEGE.

There are many players who drive a fine ball, but when It cotfles to recov-ery shots and to the Uttle trick shots around the green, they are totally at sea. Men with high handicaps have little idea as to how to get out of trouble, al-though they are called on for such shots every time they play and the first thing they should learn is how to get out of them in the lowest possible strokes. 0 , C I LIVES IN BORROWED SHELL Hermit Crab Has Peculiar Habit of Seeking Out Sheila of Dead Mol-- .' ' lutks for Domicile. ' ;.' The most peculiar tiling about the I hermit crab Is his curious habit of living in the shell of dead molluska. Bis motive Is to protect his hind-bod- The fore part of his anatomy Is cov--j ered with a thick, horny crust. His abdomen Is soft and invested with a delicate membrane. The slightest rup-- ture or abrasion to this abdomen cov--, erlng is almost certain to be fatal. With Its belly, the hermit crab holds on to Its portable home. Occasionally ' It will change one acquired shell for another. When exchanging shells It must act with utmost caution and dis-patch lest It be harmed by some enemy who may be lurking near. This exchange is often made at the mere whim of the animal, but after each moulting is compelled to find a larger home to accommodate Its grow lng body. JOHNNY WEISSMULLER IS SWIMMING MARVEL Places Several World's Records Upon the Books. Possesses Remarkable Ability to Pro-pel Himself Through Water No Distance Is Too Short and None Too Long. A little more than a year ago, a member entered the Michigan avenue home of the Illinois Athletic club with a slender sixteen-year-ol- d youth who had ambitions to become affiliated with the Chicago organization which was famous for Its record-breakin- g swim-ming teams. The boy knew that ho could swim. He had read about the li I 1 Johnny Weissmuller. great tricolor swimmers, Perry Norman Ross, Hebner, Vos-burg- h and others and he wanted to cast his lot with them. The member, however, was skeptical of the young-ster's chances of gaining a place against the galaxy of stars already in the I. A. C. fold. But after listening to the boy's appeal for more than a month, he finally promised to intro-- ' duce him to Coach Bachrach, the tri-color trainer of watermen. Finally one day the boy's persistence was rewarded and he was taken over to the I. A. C. pool and brought before Coach Bachrach. "Here's a fellow who thinks he can swim," was the member's half-hearte- d explanation for taking up the coach's time with an unknown youngster. Slipping into the pool, the boy trav-eled through the water with a crude stroke but one that showed unusual power. Immediately Coach Bachrach realized that he had what is known in sporting parlance as a "find." Today the boy, Johnny Weissmuller, Is the greatest swimmer of the present age, undoubtedly the greatest swim-mer of all time. The boy has placed several new world's records upon the books and his uncanny speed through the water Is to a large measure re-sponsible for the four world's marks which the Illinois Athletic club relay teams have created. So remarkable Is his ability to propel himself through the water that amost every time he plunges headlong an old record posses Into oblivion. For It has come to pss that Weissmuller seldom tries for a new world's mark without attaining hid cwd. No distance Is tao j,hort; none too long to be safe from hla watermanship. "Old-fashione- d Ruskln Nevertheless, though 'the future)' may prefer to read Ruskin In BeJo tions, k is not conceivable that th present affectation to despise so great a writer and so fine a spirit will persist.

O C HUMOR OF MORIARTY There are some people who insist that umpires are not hu-man, have no sense of humor. The following bit of repartee Is offered in rebuttal of such a belief. During a recent series in St. Louis a friend of Umpire George Morlarty invited him down to the Missouri Athletic club to enjoy a swim. Now It So happens that Mo-rlarty, despite the fact that he Is an d athlete, is un-able to swim. After thanking his friend for the kind invitation and express-ing his regrets at being unable to accept because of a previous engagement, he remarked: "Perhaps it is just as well, because I swim like paralysis." "How is that?" asked the much-puzzle- d friend. "One stroke and I'm through," answered Morlarty.
