FIRST MEETING OF
MARQUETTELEAGUE
HELD LAST NIGHT
Grounds at 35th Street and
Wisconsin Avenue to
Be Leveled.

That the coming season will be q
prosperous one for amateur baseball in
the District Of Columbia is assured by
the fact that league presidents are
already corralling their team captains
and officers for the purpose of arrang-
ing preliminary details regarding the
organization Of teams for 1912.
The first step in the direction Of get
ting the local sand letters out was
takeh by Captain Edwards. of the Mar
quette League, who called and pre-
sided over the meeting of members Of
that league last night at the National
Guard armory. Resolutions were passed
and provisions made for the leveling OF
the Marquette grounds at Wisconsin
avenue and Thirty-fifth streets. These
premises, which were leased for q num-
Der OF years by the Marquette League.
are well adapted for a baseball diamond
except that there is a slight decline
which reaches from second base to the
backstop. The ground will be leveled
between these points and the surplus
earth will be deposited in the outfield.
Although there has been considerable
talk about the Naval Medicos' team re-
signing from the league, 1t was definite
ly stated last night that the Medical
School will be among the first to put a
team on the field. Another meeting of
the Marquette League will be held at
the armory, Friday, January II, at
8 y. m.

with Barririllo at right forward and

team will go up against the quint from
the University of Maryland tonight on

Grams in the lineup, the Blue and Gray
fi,c has a good chance to overcome
their opponents. as both Barricillo and
CollifIower arc experienced men In the

Coach Collifower has been working
constantly for the past week with his
crew of basket shooters, and he will
send 1t en- the floor tonight in the best
condition 1t has ever entered a contest.
Although Captain Gibson Is not in the
best physical condition, 1t Is not int
probable that he will be seen in at least
half of the game. Foley's work at left
forward has improved SO much over the
holidays that he will probably be given
the position permanently.

Threw Weight Farther
By Taking Advice

NEW, YORK, Jan. 6.-"Push your
elbow Into the body moro and balance
the weight in the pam OF the hand"
said Billy Quinn. one of the track and
field coaches at Harvard University, to
Pat Mcdonald as he was about to put
the fifty-six pound weight during the
A. A. us indoor championship meet at
Madison Square Garden recently. Nc
Donald followed his advice, and as a
result Pat tossed the sphere farther
than ever before. 80
In the estimation of the athletes,
Quinn Is one of the best trainers In the
ranks. He has made q study of track
and field games for the last ten years.
He Is able to don running trunks and
shirt and show the beginners just what
he means. He is not a coach who tries
to explain verbally what he desires, but
one who Is able physically to demon
strate proper methods.
Standing slightly over feet inches
In height and weighing less than $50
pounds Quinn has more physical ability
than many who are drawing salaries
from the colleges and universities as
coaches and trainers. He has special
lied in the field. events. but this does
not deter him from showing the jump
ers, hurdlers. and sprlnters at Cam
bridge how to get the.best results from
their work. ~
Every day that the athletes are on
Soldiers Field preparing for coming
meets or conditioning themselves finds
pers and gym shirt. ready to show
any beginner anything he wishes to
know about outdoor sport.
Quinn was born In Freehold. N. j.,
about thirty years ago, and early
showed exceptional form as an athlete,
Among his personal feats are the toss
ing of fiftyasix-pound weight over a
bar elevated at twelve feet. Out of a
two-foot ring he has tossed 1t thirty
feet and more
Matt McGrath Is now using one of
Quinns suggestions. In tossing the
fty-six-pound weight for height II will
be noticed that McGrath takes one jump
backward just before heaving the
weight. others stand. That one step
gives more power. Pat Mcdonald Is
now trying to perfect that jump. IL
must be well timed, and as yet McDon-
aid Is a little crude at It.

That the National Commission has

out by Hermann. johnson. and Lynch.

tanning a comfortable margin through

best work consisted Of spectacular long
shots which invariably landed in the
basket. Baldwin also threw some clever
goals which brought the spectators to
their feet.
During the first period the teams
played an even game. but a slight ad-
vantage having been established by
