% The crying need Of colleges today is not
for the highly specialized and strenuous games
that only few men can play but for more simple
games. In which greater number may take part.
If athletics have any place in our institutions OF

With this end in view schools and colleges
should open up the best possible facilities for the

MccARTHY's BROKEN LEG.
The Well-Known Golf Professional on
the Road to Recovery.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
NEW YORK, January Eugene Nc
Carthy. the well-known golf professional
and physical instructor of the University
of South Carolina, Is slowly recovering
from an operation that few athletes could
undergo successfully. 1t will be remem-
bered that last spring, while the Superbas
were at Columbia, Mccarthy was thrown
fracture of the leg. For five months Nc
Carthy remained in the hospital at tho
Carolina capital, where the surgeons ex-
hausted every effort to mend the broken
limb.
Last September Mccarthy came to the
home of his sister in South Brooklyn, ap-
parently on the high road to recovery, and
he went to Sayville. L. L., to reeuperate
He tried several turns over the golf course
which he helped to lay out several years
ago, and was surprised to find that the leg,
which he thought was as good as new,
panied him severely. There was a peculiar
Sagging where the break had occurred, espe-
cially when he put any weight on it. An
examination under the X-rays disclosed the
fact that instead of having knit properly
the ends of the broken bone had slipped
side by side and had adhered in that posi-
a few weeks ago, where it was found nee
essary to break the bone over again. The
sturdy athlete withstood this second mis-
hap In excellent shape, and he Is now On
the high road to perfect health, after the
most successful operation of its kind known
to the surgeons. He has been assured that
the bone will set perfectly, and that the in
jured limb will be the same as before the
original break.

WEST.
1.-Two separate Championships.

In the east Yale carried off the most hon.
ors IN the major sports. The Ellis won the
base ball championship and tied with Penn
syiVania for the foot ball honors Jfnfor-
tu1 ately Yale and Penn did not meet on
the gridiron. There are many who claim
that Yale could have beaten Penn at foot
ball, since the Ellis went through the season
without having their goal line crossed,
while Penn was scored on several times.
This may be sufficient evidence on which to
rank Yale above Penn, but since the teams
did not meet 1t is unfair to say that Yale
should be awarded the foot ball champion
ship. The following is the best ranking of
the foot ball teams of the east: l. Yale; g
Pennsylvania; 3. Harvard; A. Dartmouth s.
Princeton: g. Swarthmore: Z, Brown; 8,
Carlisle Indians: 9, West Point: TO- Annap-
oils; H. Columbia; II. Cornell
Yale's base ball championship was secur-
ed by winning the series with Princeton
Harvard. Columbia and all the other coll
leges she met. The Ellis title was unds-
puted. In the field of track athletics Yale
had to give way to q new rival-Cornell
The Ithacans made a sensational triumph

points. Cornell scored second triumph
