IT'S RIGHT
j BOYS LOOK FOR
GREAT SEASON
Fast Track and Baseball
Teams Are Being Lined
Up at Varsity.

The track and baseball outlook at
the university is exceedingly bright
and, judging from the men who report
ed for preliminary work in the gym
nasium this week, the U will have some
of the strongest teams in the history Of
the school in the spring sports. It is
practically settled that the u track
team viii go 10 Seattle and compete IN
the game of the Alaska Yukon expo
sition. and If Maddocks men could
come out victorious in these meets and
then defeat the best Colorado teams.
the university would have the undis-
puted championship of the United
states west of the Rockies.
The L track schedule will be a heavy
one, but the Seattle meet will be the
most important Here the L will meet
the best teams in the west. and will
have another crack at Stanford, the
team that was defeated so badly here
last year. The other teams which are
likely 10 compete there are st. Vim
cents College, University Of Southern
California, the University of California,
University Of Washington, University
of oregon, Oregon A. C, University of
Idaho and the Montana schools. In
Utah dual meet is scheduled with the
y. Y. university at Provo. and the east
benchers are entered in the state meet.
While no meet with a Colorado team
has yet been signed up, the L win
probably meet one OF the best teams in
that state, and possibly attend the
Rocky Mountain meet at Boulder. Den
yer and the Golden Miners have both
asked for meets, and the L is consid-
ering their offers.
Captain Bill Hunt OF the track team
has not arrived from California. and f.
is probable that he will not return to
school this year, but with this excep-
ton the L has the best lot of track
stars II has had in years. Among the
stars who will perform this year are
Brinton, McAllister. ConviH, Fl. Rich
ardson and Morgan Adams. other re-
liable men who are trying out are Judd
Bailey, Sam Oleson, d. r Richardson
and Wilkinson. From these men Mad
dock expects to get a well balanced
team, with point winners in every
event.
1t should also be a good baseball year
at the university The L team will en-
ter the state league and the athletic
council is planning a trip for the team
The team might tour Colorado colleges
where there are five schools rather
ciOse together, and there is another
plan for more extended trip to the
coast. There are many small colleges
IN southern California that. have good
mines, and the team would be able 10
trip.
The baseball men have not begun an,
real work yet. but many have been

the track men. Among those who have
signed up for baseball this season are
captain Jones, Muir. Lewis. Larsen
and Spitko Of last years team; Ran

and Varnes.

the same position, it is his duty to get
the ball wherever it may happen to
drop and also to keep a watchful eye
on his forward.
If extraordinary caution is not ex-
erted by the guard delegated to re-
ceIve the sphere. the chances are that
his forward opponent, left unguarded
for only an instant, will secure the
ball and be given an almost free trial
for the basket.
Hence the guard must be quick on
his feet and must move in the direction
of the ball not an instant sooner than
he sees in exactly which direction the
sphere is going. If his center has been
accustomed to outjump the opposing
center in other plays he is perhaps safe
in moving away from his forward be-
fore the leather is slapped in the cen
ter OF the floor.
In order to insure greater protection
il might be well to have the center
drop back to cover the opposing for
ward, but have not so shown the play
here for the reason that a center is far
more effective than a guard. as a rule.
under the goal, and the latter knows
how to squeleh attempts at goal per-
haps better than his own center would.
And also if the opposing center should
outjunp the center of the team repre-
scented as aggressor, II would take some
precious time for the latter player to
get back to the position occupied by
the forward who is left free. whereas
the guard, by exerting extreme eau
ton, may keep his own man in view
and still carry out the provisions Of the
formation, If exceptionally alert.
In this play, in which there is so little
leeway for the forward picked TO throw
for goal, that individual had best use
the overhead throw, for he has little
time TO poise himself for an accurate
shot. Soon all these minor details H.
connection with plays come to the men
without their attention being called to
them, and often their basketball intui-
ton VIII teach them Improvements on
the methods which ] am laying out in

Father" of ihe Game

Besides civ ng my readers another
combination TO work upon. I would like
70 speak OF some Cf the abuses which
have grown into the game of basket
bail and few possible remedies. Many
opponents Of the game complain that
too many rules have been enacted. They
say that in the game as fostered by
the Amateur Athletic union tine strict
calling of fouls by officials makes il
possible for d referee to decide game
in favor Of team. which may. 'erhaps
be weaker than the los ng as egation
There are two remedies frr his con
dition. Either the basketball commit
mlttee of the Amateur Athler union
of the United States should tunc Gown
the number of minor offenses for which
fouls may be Chalked up or different
sections Of the country should estab-
fish referee bureaus for the selection OF
officials for games. The latter ! believe
would be preferable, though perha ps
much good might be derived from the
use OF both plans
