TRACK ATHLETES IMPROVE, But COLLEGE
BASEBALL TEAMS ARE AT A STANDSTlLL.

WRITTEN FoR THE SUNDAY REPUBLIC.
Except for some general Improvement on
the part Of q few colleges, the college base
ball season of 1901 marked no development
deserving commentator. On the contrary.
the average quality of ball playing among.
the larger university teams in the state has
been distinctly lower than that Of 1850.
Among the smaller college teams there
seems to have been about a maintenance OF
the level of play Of a year ago.
The State University at Columbia, NO..
has suffered many defeats this season. and
for an Institution of its size. has. made the
worst kind of a. showing.
The showing made by the Rolla School of
Mines team last Monday against st. Louis
University was a very poor one. and the
teams chances for championship honors
this season are not very bright. Rolla has
several clever players on its team, and these
few individuals put up a good exhibition of
baseball. The team seemed to lack the nee
essary confidence and ginger which go TO
make up a winning aggregation of ball play
ers. Maybe this was cue TO their lack OF
practice.
The adherents of the college teams in st.
Louis find much diversion in comparing the
strength of the rival schools. In college
baseball circles there are many who believe
s.. Louis University has the strongest coll
1ege ball team in the State. st. Louis Uni

eity last Thursday gives the blue and white
team q clean. score in the school season 30
far. and the only obstacles that now lie
hetweAn that nine and the championship
of tie State are the Christian Brothers
College and the State University. st. Louis
University has defeated Smith Academy.
High School and Washington University
for the championship of the city. Rolla
School OF Mines is the only outside team the
university has played and the mines were
easy picking for the varsity team. The
game between the St. Louis University and
the {. b. {. team. which was scheduled to
take place at League Park had to be de-
cfAred OF on account of the fire. which de-
stroyed the grandstand. This is to be re-
GREETED very much. as a game between
these two large institutions would be a
drawing card. and the game should be one
Of the fastest exhibitions of college base
bali seen in this city in. years. Should a
game be arranged between these two teams
and the varsity nine succeed in beating L.
B. c. it will have a clear claim for the
championship title of the city. st. Louis

1t was decided to play only one game this

Eames for the championship of the Inter-

A Summer Trip.

The trip to Salt Lake City or the
Pacific Coast via Salt Lake City by
way of the Rio Grand Western
Railway in connection with the Denver
& Rio Grand or Colorado Midland
roads is the grandest in America. No
European trip of equal length can
compare with it in grandeur of scene
ry or wealte of novel interest. Then
Salt Lake City itself is picturesque
place and we'll worth the journey to-
see. Its Mormon Temple, Taber-
nacle, Tithing Office and church In
situations its hot and warm sulphur
springs within the city limits its de-
lightful temperate sunny climate and
its Great Salt Lake-deader and
denser than the Dead Seain Palestine
are but q few features of Salt
City's countless attractions. There
are parks, drives, canyons and beau
tiful outlying mountain and lake re-
sorts. Imagine, if you,can, a bath in
salt water, a mile above sea level and
in water in which the human body
cannot sink. Inquire4ef your near
