According to Leander Richardson,
the New York dramatic writer, Gaby
Deslys scored an undOubted hit at the
Winter Garden. and scored it on her
merits. The result in part was due
TO the fact that the vast audience
expected nothing from her beyond the
good looks that had been heraIded
from the time Of the Portuguese mon
arch's reinforcement. But Gaby tLrned
out to be no such doll faced nonentity
as had been anticipated. She acted
with spirit sang with authority and
skill and danced with surprising grace
and agileness, the paper says.

LOOKS
 LIKE CHAMPION TEAM
Basketball Supremacy of the Colleges May Go to the
 Quaker Boys

NEW YORK, Dec. 21:-Pennsylvan- ia, with four veterans in the lineup. should get a good start in the Inter- collegiate Baseball league series at Princeton tonight. It is the opening game of the league season, with Co lumbia and Dartmouth playing at Han ever, N. H., tomorrow evening. Cor nell plays it's first game next week, but Yale not until Jan 6.
 It will be necessary for the college lives to learn the rudiments of the game all over again, for with the adoption of the one-hand dribble rule there will be no more of the slashing charges down the floor, ending mp with a lunging shot at the basket.
 Smoothing Out Roughness
 A player will not be allowed to take the ball in his hands unless he either shoots for goal or passes to anoth- CT man. The game will be less rough. perhaps, but it will probably be a hel- ter-skelter sort of affair unless close passing can be polished up.
 Penn. is the fayorite for the cham pionship. Columbias championship team having been stripped away by
 
 material and the Hyatt brothers, R. B. and W. C.. have greatly revived iu- terest in the sport at New Haven. They are acting as coaches.
 Tigers Had Spring Training
 Princeton went so far as to have spring training for basketball this year, which shows that the Tigers take the game seriously enough. Cor. nell is well of for veterans At Dart. mouth the game is popular and the material excellent.
 In the New England league, Wesley an looks to have the strongest team, although the Williams five, which was comparatively green last season, will probably make the Methodists play their best Wesleyan has Davidson, one of the fastest players in the coun- try, for captain, and three of last years team back.

FAMED RACE TRACK

SheepShead Bay Park at Coney Island Is 0ptiOned
 for S3,000,000

NEW YORK. Dec. 2t.-The Coney Island Jockey club has given an op- ton on the Sheepshead Bay race track to a syndicate of capitalists for sG.- 100000, and the property is to be cut ui' into residence lots.
 This statement was made today at a hearing before the tax commissioners of Brooklyn. when an attorney ap- peared to protest agaius; the assess ment on the race track as being too high.
 L. G. Reed. who appeared for the club. said there was no money in racing any more. and the club was ready to quit At the meeting Of the club directors last Monday, he said a syndicate had been given an option on the famous old race track property.
 " F. Schaumber. secretary of the jockey club. when asked about the op. tion, said he knew nothing about it, The track contains about 430 acres.
