Catholic University
Beaten By Many Fouls

BERWYN, Md, Feb. 23.-The Catholic
University basketball team is confident
today that, had its members been a
little more diligent in observing the
rules, their game with the Maryland
Aggies would not have gone on the
wrong side of the ledger. The score was
IS to 80. Fifteen fouls, eleven of which
were made to count in the result, proved
costly to the Brockland quintet.
Catholic University had the better
team work of the two and had better
success in tossing baskets when given
the opportunity. but Woodward. who
was making the free tosses for NJ. A.
c.. let few chances escape him to con-
vert a toss into a goal.
Mcdonnell, for Catholic University,
was the star of the game as far as the
Red and Black was concerned, while
for the Aggies, White made the best
showing.

Stiehm gets appointment.

Because of the mention of the name
of Fred Nielsen, of Georgetown, in con-
nection with the position, there has
been about as much printed, concern
ing the probable football coach at the
University of Nebraska, as there has
been in the West.
About a week ago it was reported
that Childs, of Yale, was to get the
position, but 1t now develops that the
position will go to Edwald Stiehn, a
graduate of Wisconsin. The new coach
has been directing small college squads
in the West for several years, and the
athletic board decided he was more
desirable than any man that could be
obtained from the East.

Saturday. Manager Wymard has acted
in a manner which should be apPreci-
ated by the athletes here. - 4 -
One of the greatest difficulties that
all directors of meets have is in getting
entries in in time for the proper classI-
fication for the program, and 1t was not
until he realized that many OF the
teams here had mistaken the closing
time that the Georgetown manager
agreed to keep the lists open longer.
It's up to those who have failed TO

PR|NCETON'S FIRST j..
PRACTICE ON TODAY
Forty Men Expected to Try
for Positions on Base
. + ball, Team. -,

PRINCETON. Feb. 23-Pripceton's 5
baseball candidates will hold the first
practice of the season this afternoon
at the cage, when 1t is expected that
forty men will respond to Captain
Whites call. The Tigers prospects
this year are good, only four men being
lost from the team. which defeated Har-
ward and Yale last year. The drill to-
day will be light 1t will serve TO lin
Der up the men for the more strenuous
work prior to the first game, on March
%, when Ursinus plays here.
|. William j.. Clark; coach OF the teams
of 1899, 1850, 1901, and 1910 is in charge
again this season, and Keene Fitzpat-
rick will watch out for the physical con-
dition of the men. From present indica-
tions the Tigers pitching department
will be their strong forte. Woodle, S. v.
White, amt Greenbam composed the
pitching staff last year, and all of these
men will be in.Princeton's lineup again.
Although recently suffering an injured
colIarbone Steve White has been de-
clared fit, and the burden of the work
will doubtless fall on him. Rogers, who
pitched on the freshman team last sea-
son, is considered a likely tWirler.
L Lacks Good Backstop.
With the loss Of Captain Dawson and
Warner Princeton lacks a good back
stop, and it is likely that both Ster-
rett, first baseman last year, and Lack
ey, utility man last year, will be given
a tryout early next month. In case
these men do not size up Winant. Tay-
nv md tlH lug - fyr-4 hnaVN los
years freshman backstops, will get a
chance.
The Tigers infield will be strengthen
ed by Tai Pendieton, last years football
star, who batted 500, and fielded short
stop on the freshman team last season.
He is the fastest base runner in college,
and will prove good man for Sammy
Reeds place.
Second Base Material.
Prescott, Shaw, Worthington, and
Faxon, all experienced men, are prom
ising material for second base. This po-
,sitioI, which was filed last season by
Warwick, will demand much attention,
and a good hitter is likely to get the
call. OF the four most promising men,
Prescott is the best batter. but lats sea-
son his fielding was poor, and he was
bAHch q ChdiSO III OlliS l"O 5ahlcS-
Bard is the only outfelder left from
last years nine. The speedy baserun-
ner will hold down the right garden,
while Lucky Bowman, Parker, Schafer,
Rheem, Kellett. and Lynch will make
bids for left and center. Big Woodle,
on account of his timely hitting, may
be moved to the outfield when not en-
ployed in the box Princeton's outfieId
will be strong, each of these eight can
didates being fast movers on the dfa-
mond.

Turner is ready.

George E. King, manager for Joe
Turner, writes to say that he is ready
to talk business looking toward a
wrestling match If Jim Prokos, the
Creek champion. is sincere in the
challenge which he issued through this
column.
Prokos would probably have consider
able advantage in the matter Of weight,
but King believes his charge is clever
enough to win from the Greek. If the
bout were arranged here i should draw
well, as Turner has large following,
and Prokos was always an idol among
the Greeks of this city.
