CATHEDRAL CLAIMS
BASKETBALL HONOR
Has Not Lost Game During
Present InterScholastic
Season.

With not a single defeat in basketball
this season, the Cathedral School team
is beginning to put in a claim for the
interscholastic championship of the Dis
trict.
Western is yet to be played, and re-
turn games with Army and Navy Prep,
Business. and Eastern are scheduled.
Georgetown Prep and Cathedral do not
play this season, and while Eastern has
defeated the Preps and Cathedral has
beaten Eastern, the claim made by the
Tenleytown team seems warranted.
The revised schedule follows:
Army and Navy Prep, February 3.
Woodberry- Forrest, at Orange, Va,
February IL.
Western High School, February 13.
Business High School, February Is.

VIRGINIA ATHLETES
PLAN NEW HOME
Will Expend About $4,000
for Modern Struc-
ture.

CHARLOTTESVILLE Va, Feb. A.
The General Athletic Association of the
University of Virginia plans to spend
about $4,000 in the near future in
erecting athletic headquarters and
dressing apartments for visiting and
local athletes. About $4,000 of this
amount has already been raised.
The building will be situated on the
hill just to the rear of the grandStand
facing Lambeth Field.
1t is also planned to erect an annex
to the present Colonnade Club building
to contain dormitories, baths, etc. for
use of visiting alumni, the promoters of
this project being the General Alumni
Association. A recommendation for
such building has been made by the
executive committee of that associa-
tion, and 1t is more than probable that
the plan will be favored and that work
will be begun on the annex about the
same time as on the G. A. A. head
quarters.
The alumni association originally plan
ned to construct home for alumni that
would be in the nature of a memorial
hall to those alumni who fell in the
civil war, but this plan has been aban-
doned. 1t is proposed now to spend
about $1,000 On the annex to the Colon
made Club, which will have its facade
on West Range and adjoin the club
building in the rear.

Spurns Cubs $4,000
Offer for Joe Jackson

NEW ORLEANS. La, Feb. 4.-Man-
ager Charley Frank, of the New Or
leans club, says he turned down an
offer OF $4,000 for Joe Jackson in order
TO keep faith with Connie Mack.
The offer was made by c. w. Murphy
of the Chicago Cubs. who made a trip
from Chicago to Mobile to secure Jack
son. Murphy, who stopped over in New
Orleans Monday, verified the story
jackson, according to Frank, was
given 10 him by Mack. Frank offered
Mack $1,000 for Joe'S release, but Mack
told Frank that he did not think Jack
son would be good any more because of
two broken ribs and an internal injury,
and he turned jackson over to Frank
with the understan nding that if jackson
turned out TO be a star Frank would
do the right thing by Mack"
He gave Jackson to me and l gave
him back" said Frank, who says the
New Orleans club did not realize a cent
in the deal.

BOARD IS AROUSED
OVER PROSELYT|NG
Principals of Various Schools
Institute Investigation
of Charges.
BOYS ARE PROMISED
FREE SCHOLARSHIPS
Scholastic Stars Admit Being Ap-
preached by Representatives
of Other Teams.

High school athletic followers here
have been thoroughly aroused by the
article in The Times yesterday declar-
ing there is open proselyting for ath-
letic material going on among the
schools of this city.
Through Captain Oyster, the Board OF
Education has taken up the matter,
while the principals of most of the
schools are investigating in order 10
be prepared to make any reports that
may be called for. Captain Oyster Is
particularly indignant that there should
be even a suspicion of such condition
of affairs in the school system, and yes
terday took up the matter with the
principals of two of the largest schools.
The principals insist they have beer
unable to unearth any direct evidence,
out the matter will not be dropped until
the bottom of the affair is reached.
After the statement in The Times ap-
peared yesterday there were further de-
velorments that would tend to show
that the inducements were even on 4
larger scale than was at first reported.
To a representative of this paper a
director of athletics in one of the most
exclusive prep schools in Washington
declared mat one or more boys under
him had been approached. and, while
no actual offer of cash or expenses was
made, an attempt was made to draw the
athletes away from his school in order
TO have the benefit of their ability at
one of the high schools.
One of the most prominent football
and baseball players in scholastic ranks
admitted that he had not only been ap-
preached and offered inducements, but
had actually received assurances that
If he should shift from his present
school to another he would, at his grad
uation, he assured of an athletic Schol-
arship a one of the universities OF this
city. That those in authority at the
university knew nothing of this PROPOSE
ton is pretty well established, and the
athlete declined to even consider the
proposition. as he is determined to con-
tinue the course in which he has already
started.
The board of faculty athletic advisers
was in session for a short time yester-
day afternoon. At that time nothing
was known of The Times expose, but,
according to what was said this morn
ing, the members of this committee will
take up the bribery situation with their
respective principals, and if the proper
evidence can be obtained, the whole
matter will be taken up at a special
meeting.

New Entry Blanks Out
For Motorcycle Contests

NEW YORK, Feb. Anew blanks
have been provided for referees re-
ports for the coming racing season
by the competition committee of
the Federation of American Motorcy-
clists. In these attention is called par
ticularly to the clause relating to the
delivery of prizes. DR.. J. P. Thornley,,
chairman Of the committee, calls at
tention to the fact that the referee is
responsible for the delivery of all prizes
at motorcycle race meets, and warns
against failure to deliver them before
the riders leave the grounds. The ref
cree has power to hold up any meet
until prizes are ready for delivery, and
thus, being wholly responsible, is sub
ject to suspension should there be any
delay.

there was but one death in college foot

the report follows:

Tribute to Mike Kelly.

When Charley Comiskey picked Ty
Cobb as the greatest ball player of all
times there were many who demurred.
Now comes Connie Mack. the most con-
sistently successful manager in the
game today, who declares that the hon.
ors belong to Mike Kelly.
Kelly could play any position, and
knew more baseball than any man that
ever lived" says Connie. He had such
a peculiar slide that a baseman couldn't
touch him even when the ball beat him
TO the bag.
Kelly made so many trick plays he
fooled the umpires. They had to let the
play go Mixes way because they didn't
know what else to do. Some of the
trick plays considered wonderful today
were invented by Kelly
