Certain limits to the Wmiupl'inship span may he not oil In moat every Inane)) of competition though the sea roll fur them ulno reveals ninny a startling exception, such as the long regime of Willie Iloppc In hilliards, of Jay Could In court tennis nnd the marvelous endurance of such hase hall stars as Ty t'olih ami Waller Johnson, maintaining the peaks for u score of years. Perhaps the most astonishing ex ception to the theory of championship limitation is ihe case of John Hull, Jr., who from 188S to 1922 captured the Urltish golf title eight times. Baseball provides a bundle of evi dence for the belief that the average champion's rule Is a short and merry one. It has come to he something of a tradition hi the national game that no club can win more than four major league pennants In n row. The ( hints, setting a modern record and duplicat ing a feat performed twice In the old days, did it last season; They still have a fighting chance to break the jinx, but the odds tight now are against Jlieivi. The dlsinte-'rallon of the Yankees Is further proof that tin championship pace has its limit. Km in a pennant winning combination In lltl'l. 1022 and 11)23 the clan slid hack to second place last year and this sea son Is in seventh place. Mc(i raw's champions of 1!13 fell bark to second place in 1914 and to last place In 1!H5. Connie Mack's title-winning outfit of 1U14 was broken tip and dropped to the cellar In one season. The old Bal timore Orioles, Chicago Cubs, I'ltts burgh I'lrates and Detroit Tigers found It impossible to win more than I lire) times in a row. 1 Another turn of the pages of sports seems to show a mystic i-untity n the number "seven." Jim Jeffries and Jack Johnson held the heavyweight boxing crown fur seven years, while Jack Uempsey Is now in his seventh year at rhc top. Bennie Ieonard re tired after seven seasons as light weight king. R. D. Sears, the first recognized American tennis champion, won the title 'seven years In a row. William A. Lamed captured the same crown seven times. The seven-year span of 1K07 to 11H4 saw Australia mainly at the top of Ihe tennis heap in Uavis cup play. The same Influence or coincidence has been at work In the women's ten nis division where Suzanne henglen, barring nn exception or two due. more or less to illness and temperament than any lapse on )l:iylug supremacy, has been ut the lop through seven seasons, while Airs. Mollu .Mnllory was (pieen of American courts seven times. It Is unusual for It golf champion to win twice in succession. No com petitor has repeated in the American open since 1012 or the amateur since 11113. and Clifford Herd, who will he head freshman coach. At the University of California, southern branch.
