AFTER MORE GAMES.
Georgetown Basket Ball Schedule
Being Rapidly Filled Out.

The continued success of the Blue
and Gray goal tossers and their i'm
provement since the holidays have
caused SO much more interest to be
taken In the sport than has been the
case in the past that Manager Fortune
is now busily engaged shifting the
playing dates in such a way that it
will be possible for more games to
take place on local floor. Already
he has changed the schedule substan-
TALLY, while negotiations are now in
progress which may bring at least
three extra battles to this city.
The game with the Staunton Mill
tary Academy has been Cancelled in
with Swarthmore. When the trip south
was first contemplated 1t was thought
that it would be possible to arrange a
number of games, but as this plan has
fallen through it has been found to be
advisable not to play the cadets. The
game with Swarthmore will most likely
take place here either Saturday, Feb
ruary 4. or the Monday following.
AS Virginia is to be played in Char
lottesville February }, battle with
the big northern school the next day
will call for some tall hustling, but it
is believed that the jump can be made
without detriment to the work of the
team. and hence Georgetown is very
willing to play the Pennsylvanians the
evening they suggested. The second
game with Virginia, which was origi-
nally on the cards for February 70, will
be played here February II, this altera-
ton being the result of a request on
the part of the Orange and Blue man.
ager, who wished it in order that the
trip of the Virginia track team would
not be interfered with.
It has also been practically settled
to play North Carolina here February
%. This will be the first time that the
Blue and Gray has ever clashed with
the Tarheels at basket ball, and hence
the contest will carry with it added in
terest. 1t will also serve as a means
of settling pretty definitely the south
ern intercollegiate championship, as it
will practically mean that the locals
will meet every team in line for that
honor.

into consideration. And yet this infield,
which hardly belonged to the first class.
performed brilliantly, and showed up
about as well as the star outfield.
That is what company does to a ball
player.
Though it is nearly two weeks ago
since Owner Hedges of the Browns sent
out his circular letter announcing that
all his players except six were on the
market no deal involving any of these
players has been recorded. 1t is not
the first time that Hedges has made
1t known that he was in the market, nor
the first time that he has failed to make
single move Hedges is hard man TO
trade with If he has player that he
cannot use he thinks th.t he should Sc
cure one of the stars Of some other team
in exchange for his. He does not want
an even break. and the time when ball
clubs give any more 1t is because a
serious mistake has been made in sizing
up the players to be traded. and that is
not very often.
All the success that the st. Louis club
had in making swaps was under Nc
Aleer's regime, and were pulled off at a
time when Frank Carroll. the owner of
the New York club. lacked the experience
in the game to protect himself.
1t has been many years since any ball
club had the ambition to beat out Wash
ington in a pennant race. That used to
be what one would wish to his enemies
and yet that is today the ambition of the
st. Louis club.

ers in the business. should have no more
assists to his credit than George Stone,
generally acknowledged to have the worst
arm in any major league outfield. This
is explained however, by the fact that
base runners knowing that Stone can't
throw. take all sorts OF chances with his
arm and sometimes fail to get away
with it,
George Moriarity gave a demonstra-
ton of the contempt in which
stones whip is held one day last
summer when he took too much lead
off second base on a hit to the out
field and was caught at time when
the Tigers appeared TO be- starting a

DETROIT, January 27.-Ask the aver
age well posted base ball fan to name the
best throwing outfie!d in the American
League and it is a cinch that he picks
Boston without hesitation. There is no
doubt that on all-around ability to peg the
ball far, fast and accurately the regular
trio of Red Sox gardeners has something
on any rival outfit. Perusal of the OFF,
cial American League averages for 1910
shows, however, that the Washington
club gave Donovan's stars close run for
the palm.
Speaker, Lewis and Hooper, the regular
Hub outfield, threw out seventy-eight run
ners among them last season. Engle and
Niles also played in the outfield for John
I. Taylor's club part of the time, but as
they were with other clubs during the
season, no figures are available to show
how many assists they made while per-
forming in the city Of culture. Half
dozen Washingtonians were pressed into
service in the meadows during the sea-
son, not counting George Browne. who
later was turned over to the White Sox.
The aggregate accomplishment of the
sextet who essayed outfielding for Nc
Aleer was seventy-seven assists. but one
short of the number credited 10 the
Speed Boys regular toilers.

comes Duffy Lewis. left fielder of the

brated strong-arm man, Joe Birmingham.

DiSLlKES INNOVATIONS
Hence tho Rfino BIindIy Attacks Any
 thing Now to Him.


 Sir Frederick Treves, the distinguish ed British surgeon, in his book "Ugan- da For a Holiday has word or two to say about the rhinoceros.
 ''The rhinoceros is the embodiment of blind conservatism" he writes. Its hide is impenetrable, it's vision is weak, while it's intellect is weaker. 1t has. however, two marked qualitfes-com- bativeness and a sense of smell. It Is aroused to its maximum energy by the presence of anything that is new. This object need not be thing that Is az gressive or inconvenient. Its offensive ness depends upon the fact that 1t Is unfamiliar, and the more unfamiliar the object Is the worse the rhinocerOs VctS.
 When a rhinoceros smel1s man he will charge him with maniacal vio- lence, although the man may be mere ly sitting on a stool reading Milton. The massive beast will dash at him like torpedo or a runaway locomo- tive simply because the smell of him is novel Actuated by this insane hate of whatever savors of an innovation. the rhinoceaos has charged an iron va- ter tank ca the outskirts of camp and has c1umpled 1t up as a blacksmith would an empty meat tin.
 "A conservative rhinoceros with. a senile dislike of anything new once charged & train on the Uganda railway. but with no moro serious results than the tearing away of the footboard of carriage As regards the rhtnoeeros in this case. 1t appeared surprised that a thing composed. as it had imagined. of Gesh ana blood could bs so hard. It went of with an additional grievance sald an increased swelling of the head."
