TWENTY -X HISTORY: YEAR 1920 RICH JN SPORT MANY ATHLETIC RECORDS BROKEN finished with good attendance at all .3 By JACK VEIOCK WrBp re Z Uames. The windup of the season in the 4NEW ffORK; Jan. i. The time of ! annual ciasslcthe world's series- ume.naa swept xsu miu uiiovj realm of things that have been. confidence and the pennant races were , classics of season drew the reat i L Years gone before have- been rich in sport history. Years still to eome will , be studded with scintillating: deeds by r the. world's athletes. Brilliant feats that Are' now tresh in the minds of sport devotees will no doubt be excell- td. But 1920 will always stand out as the greatest 12-month sport has seen v up to this time. v It took just a year following the closd of . the ijreat World.'war for spqrtj to nna its iormer levei. xnai was ''.- Then aloiipr came 1920 to find the, whole t world hungry for play and recreation, and every game of pastime in the sport j In'gj calendar was lifted to a higher level " ofr popularity than ever before. World's records were sent crashing . into the discard in many lines of sport . during the year that is closing. The enornious interest of the sport-loving v public in every competitive pastime was evinced by unprecedented crowds. Millions of people attended sport events ."" all over the world. No red-blooded sport went begging for popularity. ' The United States strengthened her position as the greatest nation in the world in athletics. The rank and file ' of her athletes was not noticeably thinned out by the vicious dogs of war, '' as was the case fin many other coun tries. As a result 1920 goes down as a !" year that saw new victories won and negr glory accumulated by athletic America. Sport events that were dropped, dur ing the war were resurrected and ' brought back with new life and vigor this year. The resumption of the Olympic , games and of international yacht racing were red leter events of the year and in both events America , covered herself with glory. . Perhaps the most impressive proof of the country's great and unswervable passion for sport was found in the fact that baseball lived through the expose of the 1919 world's series scandal and that the season was wound up in a 1 blaze of glory by the pennant winning 1 teams of the National and American leagues. ' f 's ., In Sport Spotlight ' The winning punch of this country's -.brightest athletic stars-was never more potent than this year. Take a look at a few of our 1920 heroes. "What names to conjure with! Babe Ruth, Jack t)empsey, Man-o'-War, Stanley Coveleskie, William T. i. Tilde n'll, Jack Kelly, Chick Evans, Don Liourie, Duke Kahanamoku, Frank Foss, Frank Loomis, George Sisler, Alexa Stirling, Mrs. F. I. Mallory (Molla Bjur stedt). Charley Paddock, Ethelda Bleib trey, George .Gipp.. Rogers Hornsby. Here we have named a few of the many stars who performed on track and field, the diamond, the gridiron, the water, the ring and the racetrack. They were by no means alone in mak ing 1920 a glorious sporting year, but they were "bellcows" among the ath letes in their stratas and in order to scintillate astheydid they were forced to super-efforta to win the positions they hold in the spotlight To review the valliant sport deeds of the. year in detail would require col umn upon column. The bare list of ,1920's champions in sport is as long as ar J. RufusWallinsford dream. So, in passing, we will hit the high spots only before packing a rollicking good year into the moth balls. Athletics Enjoyed Red Letter Year Startina- with the KJr a nmial in rt Ann j v, Yneets in the early months of the year fc and carrying along through the bril - Hat fixtures to the windup of the sev enh Olympics at Antwerp, athletics I iip; . boomed as never before.

Uncle Samuel's Olympic athletes, de spite, the regrettable fact that there '".was, some dissatisfaction among them because of the accommodations provid ed, "-covered themselves with glory on i track and field in Belgium. View Olympic Record : Three world's records, and two Olym ; pic '.records were broken by the Ameri cans, ,who won the Olympics for the f seventh straight time with a margin of a hundred points to spare over their nearest competitors. Frank Foss shattered, the pole vault record his own with a -vault of 13 feet, 5 3-16 inches. Frank Loomis : broke the record in the 400-metre-hur-' dies, clearing the timbers in 54 seconds.

Baseball was' In the midst of one of . 'the feost prosperous seasons in its hls- P1 tory r when the -bombshell of the 1919 s :- b world's series scandal was" exploded in . Chicago, casting a pan over me game and creating a sensation that gave the !1b pastime the hardest, jolt it has ever re- ! celved baseball wars ofthe past or scandals of - other , days notwithstand- j But baseball shook itself, Pottered on 1 its foundation for a brief space of time ! and; settled down solidly again. : The ' indictment, of the eight Chicago play i rsrCicotte. Felsch, . Weaver, Jackson, I V.WliliainsyV McMullen, Gandil. and Ris berg and subseauent confessions made i by Clcotte and others was a hard blow to the f anS. Yet they . realized appar- i : ' en tly,-. that, baseball is bigger than any player or any club, and that the game ' itAlf was : not ; unclean. 'v:The" prompt . dropping of the eight players by Owner proved that the game was little the worse for the blow it had received. The victory of the champion Cleveland Indians over the Brooklyn Dodgers was impressive. The games drew immense crowds, the fans packing the parks in both Brooklyn and the Forest City to their capacities. Incidentally, Cleve land's victory marked the first ever scored by a Forest City team in a ma jor league pennant race and the first time that a world's championship in baseball ever went to Cleveland. The expose of the gamblers awaken ed the club owners to the fact that war must be declared and waged against the gambling fraternity which had sought to poison the game. But the magnates came near to a war among themselves in attempting to settle upon a method for renovating the game sand putting it on a new and firmer founda tion. The National league, augmented by the dwners of the New York, Boston and Chicago American league clubs, handed down an ultimatum to Ban Johnson and h,is "loyal five" when, they refused to meet with the "stalwart eleven" in Chicago, threatening to. or ganize a new twelve-club league if the Johnsonites failed to come in with their scheme for a new government for the game, built around what was known as the "Lasker clan." Future Looks Bright For a time war clouds hung black and low on the horizon Then came a gathering of all the major leaguers at Chicago; a subsequent trip to Kansas City where the support of the minor leagues was sought and the happy con clusion of the trouble when Judge K. M. Landis was offered and accepted the position as the new head of baseball. The future of the game is bright now and with Judse Landis leading the or-, ganized forces in war on the gamblers and the magnates harmonizing pros perity and a long term of peace loom ahead. Baseball had another great sensation this year. Babe Ruth is the answer. The home run king set up a) record that no ball player, no matter what his hitting ability, had dreamed of, in slamming the 54 home runs during the 1920 season and breaking his own rec ord of 29 made the year before. Ruth Drew Records Ruth, as an attracion, drew more paid admissions to the turnstile wherever the Yankees played than any other player who ever wore major league liv ery before. The Yankees paid a record price of $135,000 for Ruth, purchasing him from the Boston club, and he prov ed that he was. worth it. Early in the season the Yankees broke the attend ance record at the Polo Grounds twice In succession, when 38,000 odd fans crowded into the big park, chiefly to see Ruth in action. The batting championship in the two majors passed from the hands of Eddie Roush, of the Reds, and Tyrus Cobb, of Detroit. Roush was supplanted by Rog ers Hornsby, brilliant and hard-hitting shortstop of the St. Louis Cardinals. Ty Cobb was hauled from the king row by George Sisler, star first baseman and all around utility player of '. the St. Louis Browns. Both of the new cham pions set the pace for rival batsmen nearly all season long. Stanley Coveleskie arid Burleigh Grimes, stars of the rival Cleveland and Brooklyn pitching staffs, were the best day-in-and-day-out pitchers in their respective leagues, regardless of any thing figures may show. Boxing Game to Fore ' BoxLng gained ground in two direc tions during the year. It gained in popularity and It gained in legalized territory, for the comeback of fisticuffs in New York state was a decided victory for the mitt game. In New Jersey, where the' game has flour ished for several years, the law was amended to permit the staging of 12 r'ound bouts and in other sectionsof the country boxing made progress. , No law ever in force in New York has been so successful, generally speaking as the Walker law, legalizing 15-round bouts to decisions. This law assures the boxing fan of his money's worth and brings boxers to realize their their profession is work as well as play if they are going to play it in lil" ole New York. Several things contributed toward the stimulation boxing enjoyed. The clearing of Jack Dempsey. world's heavyweight champion, of slacker charges in San Francisco, and the in vasion of Georges Carpentier and Jim my Wilde helped boom the game. Dempsey vs. Carpentier The matching of Carpentier and Dempsey for the heavyweight cham pionshipthe match of the century has kept fistic bugs agog with excite ment and the fact that the champions in the various divisions are "beginning to find more worthy opponents has done its share. One , championship changed hands during the year and another was defi nitely determined. Mike Q'Dowd, of St. Paul, lost the middleweight title to Johnny Wilson in Boston via the decision route in IIs round bout last May. Referee Mclnnis rendered the decision that caused the title to change hands. Since winning the title Wilson has been wary about defending it and has so far refused to give O'Dowd a return match. He is an unpopular champion. ' The title of world's light heavy weight champion, claimed by both Georges Carpentier , and Battling Le vinsky, was cleared when Carpentier knocked Levlnskey out in Newark, dropping the New York boxer for the count in the fourth round. Carpentier also holds the heavyweight champion ship of Europe. Jimmy Wilde's invasion of this coun try and the neat manner in which he defended his title against American boxers of his weight, conclusively prov ed his class. . Fred Fulton's knockout at the hands of Harry Wills appears to have remov ed him definitely from, the ranks of challengers for heavyweight honors. Leonard Was Busy Benny Leonard, the popular and ac tive lightweight champion, kept pretty busy during the, year, defending his crown against Johnny Dundee and oth er good lightweights. . His two ' most notable bouts' for-the title were fought against Charley-White and Joe Well ing, both of Whom were disposed of via the kayo route. Jack" Britton -has been one of the most active champions. , The welter weight king has met and defended "his laurels against all of the , best welters of the country. ' v T Pete Herman, . bantamweight title holder, -appeared in but , fe"w bouts' of consequence. ' ', ' :--:;; v v- ' -FotbnU Drew.; Biggest Crowds. Football : was never more popular ihan during the year jult closing. The grr-at. college sport saw the develop Ti.ent of some of th H most A brilliant est crowds in the history of the game. The biggest crowd to witness a game attended the Yale-Harva.rd. battle in Yale's great bowl when 80,000, people watched the Crimson defeat the Bull dogs in a game that was full of thrills.. Other big eastern games drew immense throngs of fans and feature contests in other sections of the country brought out crowds that filled the coffers of col lege athletic associations with thou sands of dollars. ', No championship was determined in the east. The season closed with Princeton, Harvard, Pitt, Penn State and Boston college ranking as the out standing teams. None of the elevens was defeated, and while Princeton was generally acknowledged to have - the best balanced team, no title could be awarded. In the western conference Ohio State won the championship in the last game of -the season by defeating Illinois at Urbana. Notre Dame, also undefeated, was credited with having the best elev en outside of the western conference in that section of the country. In the south, Georgia Tech went through the season undefeated and was recognized as- the champion, while on the far-off Pacific coast California took the honors. The navy defeated the army before a record crowd in New York. No season in recent years has de veloped the large number of star back fleld players who croped out last fall. Quarterbacks, half backs and fullbacks galore, who played with a dash and brilliancy that thrilled the great crowds, flashed across the horizon. In the estimation of the; writer ho strong er eleven could" have been recruited from this crop of players than the one which follows: - Stars of Gridiron Ends, Legendre, Princeton, and Kiley, Notre Dame; tackles, Keck, Pfinceton, and Gulick, Syracuse; guards, Callahan, Yale, and Griffiths, Penn State; center, Alexander, Syracuse; quarterback, Lou rie, Princeton; halfbacks, Gipp, Notre Dame, and Way, Penn State; fullback, Horween, Harvard. Tilden Bright Star In Tenuis Tennis lived up to its rank as a ma jor sport during the year. Thousands of new players took up the racquet in this country; tourna ments galore were played before en thusiastic crowds and all of the big title .fixtures both here and in Europe were brilliant successes. William T. Tilden II, of Philadelphia, acknowledged as the world's champion and winner of the American champion ship in the annual tournament at Forst Hills, L. I., was the bright star of the year. Tilden won the international cham pionship at Wimbledon, England, de feating the world's best players. He then came here to dethrone William M. Johnson by winning his way through the ranks to the final round, from which he emerged a brilliant victor. Johnston, the 1919 champion, and Clarence J. Griffin, his townsman from San Francisco, annexed the national doubles title. Vincent Richards, Yon kers star, won the junior title and Ro land Roberts took the clay courts championship. In addition to annexing the outdoor title Tilden also won the indoor single championship and with Richards as his partner took the Indoor doubles title as well. Women in Tennis Mrs. Frank I. Mallory, formerly Molla Bjurstedt, came back this year, winning the national women's singles title for- the fourth time. Miss Helena Pollak, of New York, annexed the wo men's indoor singles championship crown. In the national doubles Miss Zinderstein and Miss Eleanor Goss emerged the victors. Miss Pollock and Mrs. L. G. Morris captured the national indoor doubles championship. . Briton Takes Golf Title Golf returned to the high and popu lar Plane it enjoyed before the war. The visits of the British golfers to this country and various American golfers to England and France aroused great interest Edward ("Ted") Ray., one of Eng land's great professionals, invaded our ranks and carried away one of our cov eted titles whPn he won the national open championship from the classiest field of players who ever entered an open, tourney on this side of the Atlan tic. With Ray came the great Harry Vardon, who was the runner-up for the open title. The wonderful playing of these two Britons resulted in the final round for the title being fought out between Englishmen, while our best talent stood by and looked on Charles ("Chick") Evans came back in national amateur competition, win ning the championship from a great field in which Cyril Tolley, English am ateur champion, and Hope and Weth ered, inVading Britons. Evans' victory was scored over a field that included Francis Ouimet, Bobby Jones, S. D. Herron, 1919 champion. Bob Gardner, former champion and runner-up in the British amateur tourney.. Women Golf Champions Miss Alexa Stirling, the brilliant At lanta player, again won the national women's title, defeating the country's .best players. Miss Stirling .had pre viously captured the southern and Ca nadian women's titles. Jesse Sweetster, of Yale, captured the intercollegiate title over the course of the Nassau Country club and Prince ton's golfers won , tbre team title over the same course. Walter Hagen, erstwhile American open . champion, won the French open championship. The British open title went to George Duncan.' Man-o'-Wnr Greatest Hore Samuel D. Riddle's great Man-o'-War, two-year-old champion of 1919, proved himself' even better as a three-year-old and took rank as the world's greatest race horse. Throughout the racing season Man-o'-War stood in a class distinctly by himself and he wound up the season in a blaze of glory when he raced home ahead of Sir Barton, owned by . Com mander J, K. L. Ross, in their great match race at Windsor, Canada, for1 a purse of $75,000. . The Preakness, the Withers, the Bel mont" and the Dwyer stakes 'were among Man-o' -War's most notable vic tories during the year. In his match race with Sir Barton, Man-o'-War was backed to the extent of $150,000 on' the mutuals alone. As a resultof his won derful victories this year Man-o'-War takes rank with the largest money winners in , the history of the turf, ranking ' fourth to Isinglass, Donovan and Rock Sand, with total: winnings of $244,465. He has started in 21 races and lost but one, the Sanford Memorial at Saratoga in 1919. c The big racing classics of' the .year were witnessed ,by crowds of unprece dented size. Something like a million people witnessed - the running-, of the famous English derby at Epsonv Downs won by Spion- Kop. . No official 'count was ever taken of this great crowd. xnirty rnousana people saw - Man-o'- Belmont stakes. at Belmont Park last June,, and 58,000. watched Paul .Jones win, the Kentucky, derby. Great Year on Water Nlneteen-twenty-wilL always stand out as a great year for America on the water. . . Victory of the yacht Resolute over Sir Thomas Lipton's Shamrock IV, on the famous old Sandy Hook course" last July was a signal one. The Resolute won three finished "faces against two for the challenger and kept the famous America's Cup on this side of the At lantic, where it has reposed for seventy years. Sir Thomas' entry gave the Resolute the first real contest that an Ameircan yacht has had in years in defense of the cup and there, were many who would not have been sorry to see the veteran Irish yachtsman win the trophy, not because of a lack of patriotic spirit but because of his wonderful good fellow ship and the fact that many believe a Lipton victory would have stimulated yachting. ' The wonderful victory of the United states navy's eight-oared rowing crew in Brussels during; the Olympic games was a bright spot in the year of sport, as were th victories of Jack Kelly, world's single sculling champion, and Kelly and Costello, who won the world's double sculling title the same afternoon, one hour after. Kelly had beaten Jack Beresford in the single sculls final. Not only did the navy crew win the world's title, but it annexed the Amer ican championship and won the Stew ard's cup in the Henley regatta at Phil adelphia as well. The national title was won at Worcester, Mass., ; in the Olympic trials to determine which crew should represent this country. The Poughkeepsie regatta was trans ferred to Lake Cayuga at Ithaca this year and Syracuse scored a brilliant victory over Cornell in a hair-raising finish. , The Harvard-Yale regatta at New London was won by the Crimson. Lewis Wins Wrestling Title Ed "Strangler" Lewis, of Louisville, Ky., made wrestling history in (New York on the night of December 13, when he pinned Joe Stecher's shoulders o the mat after one hour, 40 minutes and six seconds of wrestling. Stecher had previously won the title from Earl Caddock, defeating the Iowan at Madi son Square Garden in January of this year. Willie Hoppe, 18.2 balk-line billiard champion for fifteen years, kept his seat at the top of the billiard ladder, His foremost rivals, Welker Cochran and Jake Schaefer, Jr., were defeated this month in the final round of the annual -natidnal tournament at the Ho tel -Astor, Hoppe winning with the same easy grace that has caused billiard de votees the wocJd over to marvel , 4 The title of speed king for-1920 was won by the late Gaston Chevrolet, -Who captured the championship at Indian apolis on Decoration day. Chevrolet was killed in a race at .Los Angeles on November 25, but even death could not rob him of the laurels he won at In dianapolis when he captured the fa mous 500-mile derby Bob Spears took the world's bike title in Europe during the year .and Arthur Spencer won the national cycle title for the second time. The basketball championship of the A.A.U. was won by Nfew York univer sity. Pennsylvania university won the national college title. LORD CHAMBERS NAMED TO NEGOTIATE LOANS Coming This Month to Discuss Britain's Debt to America WASHINGTON, Jan. 1. Lord Cham bers, G. C B., K. C. B., a former official of the British treashury. has been selected by the British govern- ment to visit this country to arrange , details with treasury officials here re garding the refunding of the British war debt to America. Lord Chambers is expected to reach here early in Jan uary, it was announced. The question of the. rate of interest on the long-time obligations, officials said, probably, would be adjusted on the basis of five per cent. Under the law, it was explained, the demand notes cannot be . funded at a rate of interest lower than they already bear and to require' a higher rate would be unjust, officials asserted. While rates are higher now than when this government obtained the funds for its loans to the allies, of ficials said this government should not attempt to take a profit from the rise in the priec of money. Any suggestion that funding of for eign loans be made at an advanced interest rate is strongly opposed by Secretary Houston. BILL HAS SPY DOORN, Holland, Jan. 1. The former German Emperor William has personal ly engaged a private fletective to keep an eye on strangers in the village of Doorn. This is in addition to the state police who guard the House of Doorn, his new home. NEW.
