EAST WILL MEET WEST

r. u -.
New York, Mar 2.For the first
time since 1908 the east probably win
meet the west in basketball this year.
The intercollegiate Basketball league
has empowered its secretary to ar
range for an inter sectional series.
/. If negotiations can be brought to a
conclusion this will mean that Column
.bia. which has won the eastern cham
pionship. will be pitted against Pur-
due, the probable winner of the west
ern title, before the end of the next
week.
Although before playing series OF
post season games, the Columbia team
would have to obtain the consent of a
faculty which is peculiarly censorious
i'm athletic matters, it Is understood
that this can be gained; as it was
practically promised If the Columbia
five was successful in carrying off the
title.
All the blue and white players are
eager for such a series and are ready
to begin practice fol the western
games as soon as the last game of
the present championship series has
been played, at New Haven tonight.
Columbia's lineup in the series with
Purdue will be the same that has
played for two seasons without de-
feat: Kiendl and Mahon, forwards;
Alexander, center; Lee and Benson,
guards.

FARGO COLLEGE WILL PUT
UP ONE GRAND TUSSLE
Second Battle Between the A. C. and the Fargo College Basket
ball Warriors Promises to Be One Of the Fiercest
Scraps Ever Pulled Off

The second and final big battle be-
tween the N. ID. Agricultural college
and Fargo college will occur Saturday
evening on the Fargo college gym
nasium floor. Three weeks ago the
college on the hill went down to de-
feat in a memorable battle before the
Aggies Twelve hundred people wit
messed the game which will long be
remembered as one of the fastest,
hardest, and closely contested games
ever played in the city.
In that game Fargo college played
under heavy difficulties and against
a big amount of luck on the part of
the A. c. Coach watkins announced
today that his team, to all appearances,
is in the best shape SO far this year.
The injured men have been kept out
of the last few games and are now
practically in perfect condition. There
is no serious injuries in the squad
and all can get into the scrimmage
Saturday evening. Unless something
new develops, Coach Watkins will
have his team in perfect physical con-
dition for the game
For the last few days Watkins ha,
been working his men overtime. A
great deal of stress has been laid upon
the shooting department Afternoons
have been devoted entirely to basket
shooting and much Improvement is
noticeable. Several men of last years
squad and some new men have come
out at this late hour and have been
helping to get the team in shape.
AS to the men who will start the

game, Coach Watkins does not ex-
actly know In all probability he will
make some changes In an endeavor to
cover up some of the weaknesses. One
thing Is certain, Fargo college will go
into the contest with whole team
and not one shaken to pieces as was
the case three weeks ago. The team
is not confident of victory for they
realize that the A. G. has to be taken
into consideration, but they do be-
lieve, and Coach watkins believes,
that it will be different contest al
together
He expects his men to put up "a
much better fight and give a much
better individual account Of themselves.
The team is in good shape and the
F. c. fans are confident that much
harder battle will be fought Saturday
evening,
Coach Watkins and Coach Reuben
have agreed to have the same officials
who handled the last game. Wolf Of
The Forum will referee and Dr.
Critchfield of the Minnesota university
will act as umpire.
The Fargo college band under the
direction of Professor Stevens will
furnish the music for this big event.
The management has made plans to
accommodate large crowd convent
emily. Although the F. C. gymnasium
will not hold the people that the A.
c. gymnasium will, yet provision is
being made to seat the big crowd that
always attends these games. The con-
test is called for s o'clock Saturday
evening, Mar. 4.

new system in
HARNESS RACES

New York, Mar. 2.-Prominent mem
bers of the Jockey club have turned
attention to divising some system
whereby trotters and PAGERS that have
secured records may be retained for
the turf and their services to racing
heightened.
A statement from one of the officers
points out that under the present sys-
tenn of conducting trotting, the horse
that shows it's speed ability during the
racing season and secures a fast rec
ord practically loses it's earning ca
pacity, despite the fact that it can be
kept useful for several seasons.
This is because managers, following
the custom of fifty years past, offer
their feature events not to horses with
fast marks which will furnish the most
interesting and exciting contests, but
to horses that have a very slow rec
ords or none at all.
There being no inducement for the
owner of the champions to race his
horses, 1t must be kept idle or sold to
enter the matinee class and be lost to
the turf
tAC OAAAN OtAC4Cd w last
horses under existing systems are the
free-for -alls, but there are not enough
of them to tempt best horses for the
season.
Each season several of the brightest
lights of the harness turf are regular
ly relegated into what is called out
classed.' The handicap system has
been advocated, but has not proved
popular when tried occasionally. The
newer system or racing fast horses in
sweepstakes races is more highly
favored.

"JINX" BOOSTED
ON Second BASE
EDDIE COLLINS WAS THE ONLY
MAN ON THAT BAG LAST YEAR
IN JUNIOR BODY WHO DID NOT
INJURE HIS BODY OR REPUTA-
TON.

Second base was a hoodooed sack
in the American league In 1910. What
ball players call the '.jinx'' roasted reg
ularly on second-everywher but In
Philadelphia.
Eddie Collins was the only man in
the league who escaped. That brilliant
young player had the best season of
his career and is one of the few star
players in the majors who ever en-
gagged in world series without injur-
ing his reputation. Collins played
above his form in the series with the
cubs. But while Collins was the star
of the team that won the worlds
championship, Johnny Evers, second
baseman and star of the cub outfit.
was walking on clutches. Evers had
his ankle fractured in Cincinnati a
few weeks before the season ended.
Jim Delahanty of Detroit did not
finish the season. In game in Cleve-
land Delahanty wrenched his ankle
and hurt his kneecap; he was forced
to quit. 1t required several months of
careful attention and nursing to bring
the ankle back to condition.
Nap Lajoie had big year, finished
one point behind Ty Cobb in the official
batting averages, but could not escape
the hoodoo. On the last day ofsthe sea-
son Lajoie became mixed in a scandal
that for a time threatened to do a
heap of damage to baseball
Mcconnell of Boston found himself
in few scrapes and the final out
come of his troubles was a trade to
Chicago in which he was one of the
principles.
Herman Schaefer was the man at
second base in Washington. but Her
man injured his arm and had to quit
second. Wade KiIlefer was also of such
nature that Washington Is now plan
ming to sell or trade him.
Gardner and La Porte played Sec
ond for New York. La Porte will try
to make good with the st. Louis
browns
RoIla Zeider started out like a whlrI-
wind for Chicago at second but was
replaced by Mcconnell and will have
to fight with seven or eight recruits

Will INVESTIGATE
GAMBLING scheme

New York, Mar. 2-The scheme of
betting syndicate to introduce pool
selling into TIC baseball games Of the
National and American leagues this
summer will be promptly and thor
oughly investigated by federal and
state authorities here, and it is not un-
likely they will find method of put
ting prompt quietus on the proposed
innovation.
Copies of the syndicates circular
were placed in the hands of the United
States district attorney, Henry A.
Wise, and of the state district attor-
ney, Charles S. Whitman, as soon as
received by local baseball officials.
Both prosecutors announced at once
that they would do all in their power
to stop the gamblers.
THE circular carefully instructs
subscribers not to use the mails" said
Mr.. Wise, 'but nevertheless, i am GO
ing to turp one of these over to the
postoffice inspectors and tell them to
watch the mails. ! am also going to
investigate the use of the express
companies for their purposes and see
if / can take any action there
District Attorney Whitman said he
would instruct his detectives to watch
the express and telegraph companies
for bets being made as result of the
pamphlets.
''It is against the law In this state,
even though the men have their head
quarters in another state" said Mr..
Whitman.

part of crime is committed in this
state. the perpetrator can be prose-
cuted If find that any bets are be-
ing made with this circular as stimu-
LUIS, / shall Immediately prosecute
Baseball men win help the district
attorney to get evidence against the
gamblers Thomas J. Lynch, presi-
dent Of the National league, thinks the
scheme Is sWindle.
1T looks" he said, @like get-rich-
quick game pure and simple. Look at
the odds offered. They are ridiculous.
You can say for me that the National
league will do all IN its power to break
up the scheme. because 1t is a bad
thing for baseball
although / do not think you can
hurt the game now, still such plan as
this Is not going to improve it, and 1t
will only mean that lot of persons
who cannot make living at other
gambling enterprises are turning to
baseball"
"You cant make my objection to the
proposition too strong said Edward
Barrow, president Of the Eastern
league.
''Such a scheme as this lowers base
ball from the high plane on which It
has been placed after years OF effort.
or course there Is nothing that can
permanently hurt the game now. but
this scheme brings the sport down to
lower level and causes the slxeptic to
look on the sport with suspicion"
