 will have its inaugural today for the 1912 season, according to the schedule middies have first date with Bal timore City College to-day, and with the University of Maryland a week from to-day. Although the Indian game was first modernized and played by whites in Canada, it has gained considerable popularity in the United States, and Maryland is the lacrosse center of the country. For over thir- ty years the game has been played in Baltimore and vicinity, and during the last thirteen years Johns Hopkins, the big university of the Monumental city, has held the intercollegiate champion ship over two-thirds of the time. Hop k1ns is the present champion of the United States Intercol egiate League. having defeated Harvard, which held the leadership in the northern divis- ion, by a score of to 1 on April 15 last. Henry Chadwick, the daddy of baseball,'' has called lacrosse the ''model game" and it certainly de- serves wider recognition than 1t has been given by American colleges. Ger tainly it is pastime that is far from being slow, as speed in running is its most essential requirement., although it affords plenty of room for the exer- else of strategy and brains, as well as courage, endurance and nerve. The theory of the game is so simple that it is readily understood by the spec tator, and one does not need to be a thirty-th degree fan in order to ap- preciate contest It consists simply of making goals by throwing the ball between goal posts or into the more modern goal cage. but there needs be skill, agility, swiftness and endur- ance for the player to get possession. of the ball and carry it safely on the lacrosse stick until opportunity offers for telling throw.

BIG LEAGUE GOSSIP

Manager Henry O'Day, of the Cin cinnati Reds, is a busy man these days. He has been out of active base ball troubles for so long that he has to work over time to get back. Hank" never considered umpiring baseball games work-except that day back in 1909 when he. umpired a Har- yard and Yale game at New Haven in the rain and on field that was ankle deep with mud. The colleges would not stand for the game being called and so Hank made the boys play out the full nine innings, al> though it took nearly three hours to do it.
 Connie Mack is sticking by his old college players of whom he has plen. ty. Collins from Columbia, Coombs from Colby, Bender from Carlisle. Krause from Santa Clara. Barry from Holy Cross and Plank from <Gettys- burg. These men did their full share toward landing those world pennants for the Mackmen in 1910 and 1911.
 Frank Schulte the slueging right. fielder of Frank Chances outfit, spent the winter in Chicago writing poetry about the Cubs. Still some people say that baseball is a hard life.
 Jake Beckley is still in n7fhe game, having signed to play with sand man. age a semi-professional team in Kan sas City. It is said that Jake was leaguer when Cy Young's grand father was a mere boy.
 RUbe Vickers formerly of Holyoke. is the king of minor league pitchers. It is believed that he holds two rec ords for minor league baseball win- ming nore games in one season than any other twirler, and total victories being the largest on record.
 Arthur Irwin after many ups and downs is high in the council of the New York Americans. and is consid- cred to be one of the hest judges of ball players in the country. Harry Wolverton. the new manager of the New York Highlanders. is a fighter ard a hustler He is a stick Ter for discipline but treats players fairly and demands similar treat inert. The one thing that he posi-. lively refuses to tolerate is loafing. Garry Hermann while in Pittsburg recently. stated that the United States League would not even start.
 When you look over the books you have to hand it to Connie Mack and Fred Clarbe. Mack has been out of the first division hut twice in twelve years while Clarke has not finish. ed lower than four in the same length of time.
