In games between the Badgers and the
leading team Japan turned what would
have been two Wisconsin victories into
defeats. That was admitted afterward
by the honorable umpire. consequently Is
not a matter of international dispute.
Instead of following the professional
style in such emergencies. the Wisconsin
collegians accepted the incorrect rulings
and the consequent defeats in a sports
manlike spirit. This attitude won the
visiting American team the plaudits of
the sporting public Of japan. and. coming
at the outset of its visit, turned the re-
mainder of its stay in the land Of the
chrysanthemum into species of tri-

NEW YORK. November 13.-The report
that the New York A. c. would renew ac-

enthusiasm among swimmers OF the west
who have been anxious to try conclusions

Johnson, a former Eastern High ath-
lete, who was injured recently while play
ing with the George Washington eleven
is out Of the hospital now. and Is coming
around in fine style. 1t Is certainty
that he will not play any more this sea-
son, for there is danger OF his back re.
ceiving another wrench. as IL IL SUN
weak. Johnson was playing as well as
any of the ex-high school stars on the
eleven. and II was very unfortunate that
the injury came so early in the season.
All the high schools are confident Of
turning out good track teams this winter.
and IL Is up to the athletic advisers to
get tcg ether and arrange spring meet
that will not prove farce, as II mas IN
the past few years. In former years IL
used to be an annual occurrence ana was
looked upon as one of the feature matches
between the high schools. II track can
not be established permanently again the
advisers should create BASKET Dali
league or some winter sport, and COM
petition between the high schools Wouid
be a welcome pleasure. All the high
schools are capable OF turning out worthy
teams in either branch, and a vote should
be taken right now as to which sport the
majority OF the high schools favor.
Eastern's poor showing this fall is due
to the extremely light team the southeast
boys were forced to turn out. The Capt.
toll Hill school Is always game. however,
and is bound to annex a championship
some time or other The new idea OF
having an athletic captain appointed in
stead of elected by the players should
benefit athletics at Eastern.
Little is being heard Of Coach Hecox's
proposition of the Technical team playing
picked team OF the high schools. OF
course the season is not over. but IL would
be we'll not to let the idea drop.
but to pick the team which is to play the
Machinists SO 1t can get few workouts
before the game and get acquainted
with the signals. Technical should be
allowed to play its ineligible players In
this game, as Il is feared the eleven would
not make much Roadway against the pick
Of the high schools, as II was all the
Machinists could do to down Western
with the ineligibles out Of the contest.
Rathbone of Business Is one OF the
grittiest players in the high schools and
enters every branch OF athletics In the
proper spirit He has won his letter In
every sport but base ball and is looked
upon as one Of the best all around ath-
letes at Business. Rathbone has another
year at the Rhode Island avenue school
and is doing all in his power to raise the
standard of athletics at Business. He
will be a strong candidate for the basket
bail quint this winter and will in all prob
ability play the center station
