NAM|NG OF RACE HORSES ,
PERPlExING TO 1uRFmEN;
OWNERS WIVES AND DAUGHTERS;
SOMETIMES HAVE A VOICE
W IN THE SELECTIONS,

The question of the naming of
horses has always been a perplexing
one to turfnlen. Annually several
thousand colts and FLIES have to be
named, and at that the jockey club re-
Quires that names for these young
sters must be filed for registration on
March ! of their two-year-old form.
For: failure to comply with this rule
1t costs an owner $50 whenever he

Tho Jockey club also does not per-

registered within five years. but back
Of this period an owner can take any
name for present use that il within
the lidssof the English and American
record books.
OF late years mono of the great
stables has had the uniformity in
names that marked the strings of the
noted turfmen of days long since past
and gone. The late Pierre Lorillard
bestowed on his great horses Indian
names, such as 1roquois, Parole. Sac.
hem, Papoose, Pequot and Powhattan,
while J. w. Hunt Reynolds, the noted
Kentucky clubman, chose famous mu.
sicians and musical terms for names
for his most brilliant race horses, Of
which Falsetta, the sire of The Picket
and Sir Huon, and Mendelssohn were
a fair sample.
Few stables have ever raced that
were as fifty named as the horses once
owned by the late Charles FleischI
mann Of Cincinnati, and his son. Ju:
Illus. former mayor of the Queen city,
It has always been understood that
Mrs. Julius Fleischmann performed
this service for her father-in.law and
husband. Some of the names she SCI
lected were surely hard to beat. For
instance, she called a colt out Of Prom

picked out by her for a colt out Of

Simple AZ tho art of passing"
BY JAMES NAlsMiTH.

Simple a. tho art Of passing 9
basket ball may seem. that one &C
complishment constitutes perhaps SC
per cent Of the pastime. II a team
has not mastered throwing the ball
and receiving 1t, the fundamental prin
ciple Of tho sport is still to be
learned. Perhaps you accost basket
ball playing friend on the street and
ask him how it came about that his
team was trimmed by five which on
dope" was inferior.
The chances are that he will either
tell you that I'VE couldn't shoot bas-
kets" or I'VE didn't get any passing
into the game" Hence, to the coach
who finds his men are growing bit
stale, I would give this advice: Line
your men up around your gymnasium
and keep them at work for half hour
or more before scrimmage begins at
nothing save passing the ball back and
forth, each player putting as much
speed into his throw as possible. Make
your men try to knock each other over
by the speed in the throw. Then line
them up for the practice game and
you will see the result In the I'M
proved team work.
of gray matter and accurate throwing
Of the leather sphere. In starting the
throw under ordinary circumstances
the fiat of the hand should balance the
ball, which is raised slightly over the
head and to one side. The rest Of the
toss is the same as that used in pitch
ing baseball. except that you let go
Of the basket ball a trifle sooner,
chiefly because it is much larger and
unwieldy. There are dozens Of meth
DDS Of passing the ball. The one I
have shown above is the overland
throw. Then there is the underhand
throw-as used in pitching an indoor
baseball-this pass being generally ef-
fective at short distances.
In a tight pinch where a player Is
compelled to leap into the air after the
basket ball, which threatens to 60 into |
an opponents hands should he let it
get past him, it is best to shoot the
sphere from an overhead position with
both hands. This throw is hard at
first, because it brings into play mus.
cles seldom used in ordinary passing,
but With little practice its efficiency
will demonstrate itself to the player.
Besides those passes there is the un-
terhand pass with both hands, which
Is used when player gets the sphere
by scooping it from the floor.

him to the left guard mo. ~, who
huns up short distance to receive it.
While that part Of the formation is be-
ing carried out the right guard mo. s.
advances to the middle Of the floor
where he takes the pass from the left
guard. The right guard then shoots
the sphere diagonally across the floor
to point underneath the goal, where
the right forward mo. p is awaiting
1t, having crossed over from his posi-
ton to the right Of the goal Thence
into the net.
Should the right forward fail in his
effort to cage" the leather the cover
ing Of positions is followed out, thus
constituting a defensive feature to the
combination.
The center drops back to take care
of the opponent left unguarded by the
right guard. while the left guard GOV.
ers his own individual opponent, from
whom he has been absent only mo-
ment. The right guard, after his pass
to the right forward, continues his run
down the floor to point directly in
front of the goal, the right forward
standing fast at the left of the basket
The left forward mo. y is already on
the right side Of the goal, having
crossed over when the right forward
made his movement after the ball.
Thus you will see that every point OF
exit, which the ball may have in case
Of a miss by the right forward, is COW
cred, and then the scrimmage and I'M
directed efforts to score are started.
Taking up the drawing to the right.
which illustrates the play in exactly a
reverse condition. we have the right
guard receiving the ball from the CEN
ter, after which it reaches the left
guard stationed near the middle of the
floor.
Then the left guard passes the leath-
er to the left forward, who crossed
over to the right of the goal From
that point the effort to score is made.
The covering of positions finds the
left forward on the right.hand side OF
the basket. the right forward on the
left side and the left guard watching
for an opportunity from point in
front of the goal.

ward under the goal If he gets both
hands on the ball?" The reason for
not allowing that Is because the OPP

sive player and the latter's goal and

with body and arms.

70 SPLIT OVER NAMING
OF FIGHT JUDGE,

Now that the place for holding the
Jeffries-Johnson battle on the Fourth
Of July has been selected all that re-
mains to be done, is to choose a ref
cree.
The naming of the third man in the
ring is likely to cause a split as seri.
GUS as that of selecting site for the
great fight. Johnson was quoted some
time ago as saying he would insist
upon a negro to judge the battle. This
of course was as unreasonable as the
suggestion that Col. Roosevelt should
be the arbiter Jeffries would not
stand for colored man to Judge the
affair and the fight fans would set up
yell that could be heard wherever
the pugilistic game is known.
The referee is not to be named. &C.

fight. It is believed that influence will
be brought to bear to have a Cali

the man who declared Ad. Wolgast
winner over Battling Nelson is likely
to be the one who will pull down the
plum. Nothing is heard any more
about John L. Sullivan as referee and

that he expects Rube Marquard to be

"They may say what they please
about Marquard." said McGraw. ,"But
I know that he is good pitcher. He
has everything that a good pitcher
ought to have. and no man could have
done what he did before coming to
New York without having been a good

Marqdard has been working on a
curve similar to Mattys fadeavay

is thrown from the port side. As It
