STAR GIRL BASKETBALL
PLAYERS AT HIGH SCHOOL
Misses Gem Gritfen Mary PIummer
and Annette Burke in Class
by Themse Ives

The main strength of the Los An
geles high school basketball team is
the center and the forwards, although
the guards are much stronger than
last year.
Miss Cleme Griffen, the captain of
the team was picked as center on
the All Southern California aggregation
last season and is a player of excep-
tional speed. Miss Griffen's strength,
however, is not in her speed as much
as in her headwork. She is not spec
tacular player, but knows the game
from A to 2, and her teammates place
the utmost confidence in their captain.
Miss Mary Plummer, who plays left
forward, is large, firmly knit and
muscular girl-an excellent type of the
athletic girl Miss Plummer played on
the ]. w. G. team last year, but did
not have the advantages of a good
coach. Since she has been at the high
school she has made a brilliant record
for herself and has been highly instru-
mental in winning games for the blue
and white,
Miss Plummer holds last seasons
record for throwing baskets, and the
way she dropped the ball in the basket
at the Indian-high school game showed
that she has not lost form but is rap
idly developing into star. a
Miss Annette Burke stands in great
contrast to Miss Plummer, being a
great deal smaller. What Miss Burke
lacks in size she more than makes up
in pluck and speedy playing. She
stands next to Miss Plummer in throw
ing goals and the two play together
like machine.

BOYS FATHER RULED OFF AT
OAKLAND
5ookmakers Take the Money at the
Northern Track, owing to
Heavy Going and
Poor Glass

Special to The Herald
OAKLAND, Jan. 16.-The muddy
track at Oakland today made it hard
to PICK the winners and very ordinary
card added to the troubles of the tall
ent. Nearly every bookmaker in the
ring had good winning day.
The only real favorite to win was
Tam o. Shanter, just up from Los An
geles, who made a show of his field
and won as he liked. Modicum finally
won race, the soft track just suiting
his sore feet, and Dell Fountains
midget son put him over at to 1. NV
Order and Hulford were the next
longest shots at 10 and 12 to 1. Batidor
won his maiden race today and was as
good as 20 to 1.
William S. Knapp, father of Jockey
"Bilr' Knapp, was today ruled off by
the stewards of the Pacific Coast
Jockey club. He had sworn that he
had not signed a contract with Wilker-
son and engaged his son with Walter
Jennings. The contract with Wilkerson
arrived today from New York and
showed that both father and son had
signed it, and the stewards ruled the
father off and ordered the son to re-
port to Wilkerson at Los Angeles. He
will leave at once to ride at Ascot.

the new-made Ice broke and Slaugh-

not pet near him because of the thin
ness of the ice aud he struggled in
the cold water ten mimi es. the ice
breaking under his wei ght as he gam

companions managed 10 keep the
length of the coats beyond the edge
