SET OF EXERCISES
AND NOW SOME EXERCISES THA T WILL BENEFIT
ALL POR TIONS OF MUSCULAR SYS TEM A T ONCE
J
If You Weary of Special Treatment
for Abdomen, Back, Waist and So
on, Here Are Some Fine New Stunts
That Will Help You All Over.
Bv JOE BEAN.
S O far in my little specifications for building men, I have pre
scribed exercises that would take care of and improve some
particular part of the body, showing just how that exercise
would do the work and explaining its benefits.
And now there appears to be a growing demand among people
who know me and are interested in my work for some general ex
ercises that will he of universal benefit to the digestion, the mus
cular system, and, in fact, to the entire anatomy.
So I am going to give my readers a series of articles on general
exercises.
At that, it must be understood
that in taking abdominal exer
cises, or waist exercises, or back
exercises, 1 he part specifically
brought into play is by no means
the only part benefited. The
arms and the legs, and frequent
ly the neck, all profit by the
strenuous work imposed on the
waist or other sections.
As regards typically general
exercises, there are many games
that might come well under that
head. Home work-—pottering
about, the garden, mowing the
lawn, and all that sort of thing—
also may be regarded as general
exercises.
A "Setting Up" Drill.
Following Is a list of excellent gen
eral exercise*, of the “setting lip”
fityle so much favored in the army
and navy as a means of keeping the*
men in fine trim from head to heels.
I don’t know any set of exercises that
will prove of more benefit to the en
tire body than these.
No. 1. With the hands on the hip*
crouch on the left leg. bending the
knees and then extending the right
leg to the front, keeping the body
rigidly erect and maintaining the
balance by carefully applied muscu
lar effort At first you may have to
hold on to something, but that should
be abandoned as soon ns possible.
Always bend the knees as* far as pos
sible before straightening out the
right leg. and In rising bring that
leg back to the bending position and
then rise to the full height again. This
should be* repeated, extending the left
leg an equal number of times, after
which the exercises should be alter
nated. It will be sure to result in
soreness of the thighs rind hips at
first, hb no man regularly applied any
such exercise as this except in this
way. It’s a great thing for bodily
poise and balance.
Take a “Full Squat.”
No. 2. Bend the knees ns far as
possible, to the “full squat” position.
1t Is called, and at the same time raise
both arms high above the head Then
ri«e to the first position, lowering the
arms as you straighten the legs. ThD
Is fine for practically every set of
muscles in the legs, feet and ankles.
Also, it expands the chest, and the
balancing necessary to accomplish
the feat brings out much development
of the muscles in the stomach, waist,
back and shoulders. Even the neck
comes in for its part, holding the
head erect and not permitting It to
bob forward, a» you will find it In
clined to do.
No. 3. The mme as No. 2. except
that the arms are extended horizon
tally while the "squat" is being ac
complished. It is peculiarly adapted
to the development of the chest, arms
and shoulders, also the back and neck
muscles. That part of the drill may
be taken standing up. but in conjunc
tion with the "squat" It Is a far bet
ter all-around exercise. In all these
exercises be sure to hold the body
rigidly erect, and strive to acquire
“form” and grace In the work. The
head should not be ducked or bobbed
forward; the shoulders should not
be humped or drooped, and then*
should be a certain snap and style
about the whole thing that is not
only good to look at. but also aids
greatly in the development.
And Some Jumping Here.
No. 4. Start in the usual position,
f.rms at sides, heels together, toe' 1
turned slightly outward. Jump the
feet apart, about three feet, landing
on the balls of the feet, and at the
same time swing the arms outward
and upward. Then with another
Jump bring the feet together and
swing the arms down to the sides,
resuming the first position. Repeat
about 30 times. It's* great for the
legs, trunk and shoulders and makes
the blood dance in the arteries In a
very comforting manner. Also, it is
fine for the breathing apparatus.
IN LEGAL FIGHT
Many Officials Willing to Render
Financial Assistance Against
Jack O’Connor.
DILLON TO BOX KLAUS
IN TWELVE-ROUND BOUT
INDIANA PO LIS. IN'D. Aug. 9 —
Jack Dillon yesterday accepted terms
for a 12-round bout w ith Frank Klaus
at Boston. August 26. Th'*se men
have been recognized generally as the
best of the middlew eights during the
last year. Klaus defeated Dillon in
Ban Francifco. the bout being a 20-
round affair, and Dillon squarely beat
the Pittsburg champion here in a
16-round bout last May.
JOE BUSH FIELDS WELL.
PHILADELPHIA. Aug. 9—One
thing Leslie Joe Bush, of the Ath
letics. can do Just a little better than
anything else except pitch and
is cover first on awkward hits to Mc-
Innes. He fields his position as well
as any hurler in the American
League.
I T. LOUIS, Aug. 9.—The ever
present "baseball war"—manager-
player vs. umpire—may be blast
ed should ex-Arbitrator Jack McNul
ty win the $35,000 assault suit against
Manager Jack O’Connor, of the* St.
Louis Federal club. Umpires all over
the country have read news ItemH of
the O’Connor-McNulty run-in on June
28. Said officials also have learned of
the heavy damage suit filed by Mc
Nulty against the Federal league of
St. Louis, charging that the blows de
livered by O’Connor have permanent
ly retired him from the national j>as-
time.
The indicator handlers, according to
a statement by Jack McNulty, fur
ther averred by his attorney, George
Burleigh, have offered McNulty finan
cial assistance in fighting his cause
for the small fortune to pay for the
punches whipped over by the Fed
eral manager The major league ar
bitrators. backed by umpires in the
minor and semi-pro associations,
combined in subscribing a large sum
to benefit the cause of McNulty.
The men behind the plate, in dire
symi>athy with the former field Judge,
have written McNulty many letters,
requesting him to accept financial aid
But McNulty or Burleigh will not
deny or affirm the query that they
have granted the request.
Verdict Will Be Important.
McNulty, as far as publicity is con
cerned, is as much in the dark as a
cave without a light. Jack refuses to
be interviewed. His spirits seem
crushed, while the old happy-go-lucky
greeting formerly delivered by Mac
has passed to anywhere but McNulty.
When asked regarding the aid of
fered by his associates in the profes
sion. McNulty replied: "You’ve got
the dope. Why should I say any
thing?” That was all. McNulty pos
itively refuses to announce the names
of his non-invited rescuers, but from
a little slip It is learned that such
prominent Judgment passers as
“Hank” O’Day, “Silk” O’Louglin,
Klein. Rigler and other big arena ca-
vorters are in direct sympathy with
McNulty’s pursuit for Justice.
Should McNulty be returned the
victor in the $35,000 damage suit, it
is generally supposed that mana
gers. whether ow ning teams In a third
league or in the big stadium, will act
a bit more carefully before attempt
ing to down the reign of the field of
ficials.
Baseball nrixups between managers,
players and umpires date back to
Noah’s Ark. The most recent bit of
thrills to greet Si. 1 anils fans was the
Stovall-Ferguson affair.. George was
barred from the field fora lengthy pe
riod and fined $t00. In 1912 Klem
and Roger Bresnahan had a fistic en
counter.
Mage® in Mixup.
Again, in 1911. Sherwood Magee and
Finneran exchanged wallops. Mr.
Umpire received a few knocks which
deprived him of several teeth, while
the triumphant boxer paid for his ac

sion and diminishing of the bank
Walter's Contract Expires in Oc
tober—Little Trouble Expected
in Signing Twirier for 1914.
W ASHINGTON, Aug. 9.—The
task of signing Sij* Walter
Johnson, the famed flinger
of the local American League team,
will be up to Manager Griffith after
October, 1913. But the Job will not
be a big one, in the opinion of those
who know Griffith and Johnson.
Right now Johnson is serving the
last stanza of his three-year contract
with the Senators. He signed the
document at the beginning of the 1911
season, after a misunderstanding with
James R. McAIeer, then manager of
the Capital crew.
J OHNSON Is drawing $21,000 for
three years’ work. He signed that
contract after he had reported to the
^raining camp, returned to his Cof-
feyville, Kans., home and then re
joined the team in the East after the
seanon had opened.
Johnson’s value to the Washington
club is generally rated more than Ty
Cobb’s usefulness to the Detroit team.
But Johnson will hardly draw down
$12,500, the salary Tyrus is alleged to
be receiving from the Tigers this sea-
• • •
TT wouldn’t be surprising if Johnson
1 is slipped a contract calling for
$10,000 salary for 1914, or one for
$30,000 for service during the next
three years. Sir Walter is worth al
most any price he asks.
It is Johnson’s disposition, as well
as his wonderful speed and curves,
that makes him a valuable member
of the Washington team. The local
players have It sized up pretty well,
too. As one member of the party
said :
“AS long as Johnson is a member
of the team there isn’t another
player on it who is going to get swell-
headed. He’s the big noise and is
modes* about it. For that reason no
other fellow on our club, no matter
how good he is. or what he does,
will have a chance to crow.”

roll.
It is not always the team managers
who go after an umpire’s scalp and
life. \\ rathed players seldom fall to
take their inning with the arbitrator
should the official seemingly rob the
athlete of a point. The fact that the
umpires have come to the assistance
of McNulty proves that the fraternity
of field Pcoh-bahs is a most outreach-
ing body.
Should the preliminary tactics favor
the former full guy. there’s a good
chance for the war on umpires to
cease forever.
McNulty firmly believes that he’s
through with the game foreyer. Suf
fering from severe headaches and in
tense. internal pain, Mac declares he
will never be the same Jolly fellow
as of old.
SUPERBAS KEEP STORK BUSY.

S AN FRANCISCO, Aug. 9.—Now It
is a "fight fan’’ living in Wind
sor, Ont., who wishes to draw
me out on certain points.
In a letter dated July 15, he says;
"Seeing in last Sunday’s paper that
you answered a question put by some
fight fan as to who, in your opinion,
was the most perfect Australian box
er. 1 wish to ask who you consider
was the greatest fighter of all time.
If you do not care to answer that,
would you please state who you con
sider the greatest negro fighter of all
time?”
I’ll do the best I can. and to show
you I am not Inclined to shirk the la-
rue 1 w ill answer both your questions.
It so happens that in replying to
the question l reply to both, for the
greatest tighter who ever lived, ac
cording to my idea, was a negro. And
his name was George Dixon.
It will be as well for you to remem
ber, Mr. Fight Fan, that this is mere
ly an expression of individual opin
ion. There are no standards by
which these questions can be worked
out and settled with mathematical
exactness. Nor is there anything on
the face of the earth on which both
laymen and experts disagree more
than the question of merit in pugil
ists. This because fighting appeals to
the emotiohs. It arouses enthusiasm
and creates heroes and ideals.
1 have no doubt there is still in
existence a ^mattering of very old-
timers who will snort at the idea of
Tom Bayers and Ned O’Baldwin and
Donnelly and Cooper being passed
over In a discussion of this kind for
a slim-limbed yellow skin like little
Dixon. But he is my choice. And 1
feel that Bob Fitzsimmons runs him
a close second.

KELLY AND SHEEHAN SIGN
FOR TEN-ROUND FIGHT
CHICAGO, Aug. 9.—“Spike” Kelly
and Tommy Sheehan, Chicago welter
weights, yesterday were matched to
fight ten rounds in Superior. Wis., on
Labor Day night. They agreed to
weigh 145 at 6 o’clock. Fred Gilmore
signed the papers for Kelly, who has
been idle since he beat Billy Walters
at Kenosha.

* lleve he triumphed over a greater
number of formidable opponents than
any other man 1 ever heard of.’
Some fighters had their run for the
championship goal when the men they
had to cope with were on the down
ward grade. This was notably the
case with Jim Jeffries. He defeated
Bob Fitzsimmons. Jim Corbett and
Peter Jackson when each of these
was well past his prime in a fighting
sense. Whether or not he could have
beaten them had he met them at their
best I do not know.
I do know, however, that the world
was raked and scraped for opponents
for little Chocolate Dixon. He met
the best men of the various fight-
fostering countries when they held the
championships of their various sec
tions, and when it was made as clear
as possible that there was nothing lef.
in their own countries that could com
pare with them. And he went through
them all like sunlight through a chink
in a barn.
The same arguments apply largely
in the case of Fitzsimmons. Taking
his opponents man by man he can not
show so big an army of worthy con
quests as Dixon, probably, but old
Bob overcame more handicaps than
any other lighter I have knowledge of.
For this reason I consider he fails

“How does Willie Ritchie compare

Up to date he does not begin to
compare in the slightest. Ritchie is
still young and lacking in experience,
however, and may loom up as more of
a world-figure in pugilism when he
has 'pitted himself against men like

Nelson on Richmond Field was some
thing to live in memory even if little
Ad had never accomplished anything
else.
Rattling Nelson in his prime was an
interesting performer. And it was his
negative qualities that made him
worth while. There never was a man
within twenty pounds of his weight
who could stand such rough usage
and keep pressing steadily forward.
He wasn’t the most gainly fighter of
his class by long odds, but his powers
of asslmiliation covered a multitude
of defects.
NEW ORLEANS, Aug. 9.—Not a few
strange knockouts have been recorded
since boxing was first inaugurated, but
that one at New Orleans recently when
Frankie Russell was given a K. O. vic
tory over Johnny Lore, of New York,
was as queer as any.
Perhaps it was the first time in ring
history that a man was counted out
while outside the ring. Lore was
dropped twice by Russell and the next
time was pushed through the ropes.
His feet caught on the lower rope as he
went through, and that much of him
remained in the ring, nut his body was
in the laps of ringside spectators.
Referee Burke started .counting the
minute Lore s body shot through the
ropes. At me count of five Lore was
on his feet ami at tn« seven count he
had partly clambered in the ring again.
He got to his feet and inside the ring
lust in time to hear the cry of “10 and
out” given by the referee.
REDS AFTER HAGEMAN.

MAURICE M’LOUGHLIN TOOK
UP TENNIS AT AGE OF 13
NEW I’ORK, Aug. 9.—Maurice E.
McLoughlin, who has made complete
the supremacy of the Californians on
the lawn tennis courts and rounding out
his career by returning the Dwight F.
Davis international challenge cup to
this country, is a thoroughly represent
ative American player. He is but 23
years of age and he fulfilled his bril
liant promise by winning the All-Comer-
national championship at Newport last
August.
McLoughlin was born at Carson City.
Nev.. January 7, 1890. It was when 13
years of age that he took up the game
in which he has won the highest Ameri
can honors by taking both the national
singles and doubles In the same year.
This has not happened since 1905, w’hen
Reals C. Wright scored on both titles,
in the doubles, having Holcombe Ward
ns his partner. McLoughlin early in hi>
career began to win championships, be
ginning with the junior titles in Sat.
Francisco. In 1905 he entered the Cali
fornia State championship, but did not
win an important title until 1907, when
he took the San Francisco city cham
pionship, and from that time on his rise
nas beer, rapid.
CLEVELAND, Aug. 9.—Cal Delaney,
Cleveland's best featherweight outside
of championship company, and Jimmy
Dunn are no longer boxer and manager.
They have severed business and social
relations for all time. Henceforth It's
one road for one and a different high
way for the other.
The climax to the partnership was the
leading feature of the Put-in-Bay's gay
and sumptuous celebration. That’s
when the split occurred and where
Dunn and Delaney had a feverish argu
ment that lasted several minutes and
the result was that Jim refused to have
anything more to do with the West
Side blonde boy. He claimed that De
laney was becoming more and more un
manageable. Cal debated that he was
not a boy any longer and refused to be
bossed.
