BEZDEK FOOTBALL,
REFORMER IN SOUTH

Fayetteville. Ark, Feb. 6-Coach
Hugo Bezdek of the Arkansas UNIVERSE
ty has taken the initiative to organize
a southwestern athletic conference. The
proposed organization probably will in
clude Arkansas university, Oklahoma,
Texas, A. and NJ. and other schools in
the southwest.
1t is not the intention to place the
new organization under the rules gov
erning more advanced organizations of
its kind, but to start on the most simple
plan possible and build it up according
to the demands of this particular Sec
ton of the country. 1t is believed that
one of the greatest needs is to have a
standard by which southwestern col
leges will be placed on an equal COM
petitive basis
The lack in the southwest of ira
ditional games, that are so famous
among the eastern and western schools
is put forth as another point favorine
the new organization.

CATHOLIC BASEBALL
LEAGUE TO ORGANIZE
Fifty Teams Expected to
Apply For Membership
in Circuit.

Fifty teams are expected to strive
for the pennant in the National Cath
Ollie baseball league next summer. Plans
for the coming season will be formu-
lated at a meeting Tuesday night at
the Great Northern hotel when the new
constitution of the league will be
changed, new members considered and
the schedule for the 1911 championship
fight considered
The success of the league has sur
prised even the most optimistic of it's
organizers. Twenty-four teams COM
peted last year and before the season
was half way over many more sought
admittance. More than fifty teams
have applied thus far for mem bership
for the coming season and it is ex-
pected that at least a half a hundred
mines will be entered when the next
fight opens.
The tentative plans for the schedule
call for the season to open the third
Sunday in April in five sections each,
including two teams. Each team will
play two games with the other clubs in
its division, or a total of eighteen
games. The five surviving teams then
will play a special schedule to deter
mine the championship.
A definite decision who is eligible
for membership probably will be
reached at the meeting Tuesday night.
Last year these lists were open to ath-
letes of various faiths, but some have
maintained that only Catholics should
be allowed to strive for the pennant.
The majority of the members, it is said.

pete as in the past.

Don't waste your time In longing
For bright, impossible things;
Don't sit supinely yearning
For the swiftness of wings;
Don't spurn to be a rushlight
Because you are not a star.
But brighten some bit of darkness
BY shining just where you are.
There is need of the tiniest candle
AS we'll as the garish sun;
The humblest deed is ennobled
When it is worthily done;
You may never be called to brighten
The darkened regions affair;
So fill, for the day. your mission
By Singing just where you are.
