FAST GAME !. WITH TUCSON
Bisbee Boys Lost Out, But Made Splendid Showing Under Disadvantage -- Re turn Game Next Friday

Friday night one Of the best and fastest games of Basket Ball ever seen in Arizona was played between tha Bisbee Y. NJ. c. A. and U. Of A. aggregations at Tucson. The score being 31 to 27.
 As the score indicates. the teams were very evenly matched, the Tue. son boys having the advantage in that they were accustomed to playing on very slippery floor. In that the gym floor at the university is also used for dancing purposes, naturally the flcor was very slick.
 The game was marked throughout by clean and gentlemanly actions. by both teams. The decisions of the ref. cree and umpire, were very fair. z At no time were their decisions disputed.
 The university team work was ex. ceiient and the Blsbee boys were not far behind. although the floor nstur. ally changed their style of play con. siderable. The star Of the Tucson team was , easily James Maffeo, who is A well known character in Bisbee. He was accidentally hurt the latter part of the game, though nothing serious.
 Tucson was picked for an easy vic. tory, but as Bisbee became accus. toned to the floor, 1t looked dubious for Tucson. With a rush that was really superhuman effort l}lsbee brought the score from sl to- IS to Sl to 27sin the last , minutes of play.
 No cne in particular starred on Bishee. although Benton, Thomas and Champion played their usually rep- able game. Ft.
 A different story will ge told this week, as Tucson plays here next Fri. day night. This should easily be the best game Of the season. as both teams will be strengthened by anoth. CT weeks practice.
 An informal dance was held after the game, and a good time was en- joyed by all. The lineup fer f3isbee: r- tl
 Benton center and guard: Thomas. center and forward; Champion. guard Boat, forward; Dressler. guard: Leo. nard. forward; Owens substitute.

ENGLAND AIMS
 ID DEFEAT Us
Confident of Winning Inter- national Victory With Qx- ford Team in First Four Mile Relay Race A

NEW YORK. Jan. En1ands s chances of defeating America 4n the first international contest of 1914 will ge unusually good when the Oxford University four-mile relay team com petes at the University of Pennsyl- vania meet at Flanklin Field, Aprli s9 According to the present plan fhe
 Oxford quarters will consist tof four runners who, when considered as a team, are not ecualled in the colle- giate world today. Arnold x. s. Jark. son, winner of the 1.5OO metre race at the Olympic ames Of l9i2,-will cap tain the team. His first lieutenant will be Norman S. Tagor. Rhodes scholar rom Brown University. winner of the 1913 A. A. '. mile championship and a number of American intercollegiate titles C. M. Sproule. captain of the Oxford cross country team ana Rhodes scholar from Australia, will gs third man, while Basil Rudd, of South Africa, also a holder of al Rhodes scholarship. will complete the team.
 It thus happens that by peculiar co-incident Oxford has a quartet Of mile runners drawn from the four corners of the world. every one Of which can run the mile in four min utes, twenty-iwo seconds or hotter. All have figured prominently in tue fall sports of the English university srd because O. lhci; varied export ence iR national and 4inteinationii competition, will form 9 most fofmi l. able team, both from the point of t.me and steadincss Jackson and Ia bor have repeatedly run the mile between 4:l5 and .4:20 ane are uas. l. lent judges f pace ani spurt Eu,ld was originally one half miller with a record of l.5O. but has shown the speed and endurance necessary for the mile in the longer trials.

sesses a burst of speed af the finish that makes him appear like a s.rinter in the final one hundred yards. On a fast, dry track this team, accord
 ing to English experts. should run the four miles without hel.. gfeaxing ef. fort inside seventeen minutes, thirty seconds. Judging from the past rec ords of the men they shoull be able to cut fifteen seconds off thsese figures If pushed hard.
 With John aul Jones graduated and retired from the cinder path it wouid be hard to select team of mllers from among all the co;ieges of the United States whose records would warrant their being even favorites against this marvellous quartet now matriculated at Oxford. lf any me college or university in the United States has at this time four runners ready to test the Oxford team to the limit the average collesa trainer Is unaware of the existence Of the team. Yet these are the conditions which must be complied with at the, Univer. sity of Pennsylvania relay carnival.
 Unless Cornell. Pennsylvania or Michigan, the home of long distance college runners, can develop a sen.
 sational four for this international contest the odds will ge lcng on OK ford late in April. Even the best American records for similar racing exceeds 1730. The Boston A. A.. team hold the A. A. U. record of 175i 10 made at Easton, Pa, on June l3, 1913, while the intercoile- giate record of i7.55 was made by Cornell team Of 1911 at the ennsyl- yania relays.
 The Pennsylvania team won the race last year in IS minutes and 2-5I seconds, defeating Princeton. Ohio State, Pennsylvania State and North western University in the order named. The Red and Blue team cons sisted of Iauger. McCurly, Madeira and uthrez. Of the quartet all are eligible except uthrez. who was grad. uated last spring. In order to run the four miles in anything like 17SOI new material will have to be uncov- cred. Some idea of the calibre of this task may he gained from the statement that team selected from among the winners of the mile runs fin all tho Intercollegiate meets of 1918. barring Jones and Taber, would fail tO shoy average time equal to that credited to the Oxford four.

 PRIZE R|.!|.zl! FIGHTS
Attorney General Bullard Hands Down Opinion That Contests Are Illegal in the State

PHOENIX. Jan. i7.-Boxing exhi. bitious in Arizona seen, doomed. From an opinion fent by Attorney General c. F. Bullaid to P. w. O'Sul. iivan, county attorney of Yavapai county, 1t is shown they come within the definition of the term of fight or prize-hght. and there is a law against lights in Arizona.
 On the day follow ing the Matthews. Knight bout in Yavapai on Jan 9. the Civic league Of that city had the principals and prom Oters arrested. At inc hearing before a justice of the peace Tuesday, tho boxing element won a victory, County Attorney o'Sul. ivan. after hearing the evidence, claiming there had been no prize fight dismissing the ten defendants and generating th cir bonds.
 Developments alter the charges were dismissed followed thick and fast Two Of the defendants, Matthews and Knight. were arrested upon new warrants secured by Attorney E. s. Clark for the Civic league. Again the cases vera dismissed and a third time the two principals were arrested
 Attorney Clark comes to Phoenix to gain the cooperation of Attorney. eneral Bullard.
 In part, the attorney generals opln. ion, after he had quoted authorities on the definitions of prize fighting, reads: Under these definitions and the usual adaptation cf the term of fight and prize-fight, 1t seems to me that a contest such as you have de- soribed comes within the definition Of the term of prize or prize-fght.
 Aside, however, from the question of the mere construction of the mean ing of the words f,ght and prize-fie ht. our statutu is broader and far more drastic thaq the statute Of any ether state in the Union, and even aside from the construction of the terms fight and prize-hglt. I am of the opin. ion That the phraseology of the stat ute. to-wit- Or any other premedi. tated fight or contention,' was in- tended to cover that class of exhibi- tions."
 Aside from the reasons above giv. on, in this state, at least practical legislative construction has been placed upon the statute by the legisla- ture of the state of Arizona. At it's first session. the first legislature of the state Of Arizona enacted and passed an act reading the same as the California statute now does, that is tc say. enacted the present law with the provlso that certain class of spasrina 'exhibinols sllpuld be ex. emptied from the provi ions of the act This act was vetoed by the gov. ernor of the state of Arizona and no attempt Was made by the legislature 10 pass the act Over his beto.

VAST IRRIGATION
SCHEME FOR EGYPT
LORD KITCHENER EXPECTS TO
RECLAIM A MILLION ACRES, TO
COST 100000.

London, June 17.-Lord Kitchener
is coming to England in a few weeks.
His mission is of high Importance,
and the Standard says it is in a posi-
tion to state that he will bring with
him details of great irrigation
scheme which will put nearly 1,OOO,-
coo Egyptian acres on the cotton
map"
The plans for the construction of
a barrage on the White Nile about
thirty-seven and half miles above
Khartum are now being drawn up by
the Egyptian authorities.
In deciding upon this work the
government has been influenced by
the great success of the Assint bar
rage and the Esneh barrage. This
vast weir will act as a necessary
auxiliary to the drainage schemes in
northern Egypt. Within two or three
years, the area in the delta will have
been reclaimed ard then the new
barrage will be urgently required. At
present nothing but rice will grow on
the sWampy land Much of this be-
longs to the Egyptian government,
which will, therefore, benefit greatly
by its drainage. From every point
of view the money spent on the bar
rage Will be an excellent investment.
1t is estimated that the scheme will
cost about $40OO,OOO, and all this will
have to be found out Of revenue. The
receipts under this head will be low
this year, so the commencement OF
the barrage will probably be post
poned for at least twelve months.
The whole work of construction will
occupy about three years.
Lord Kitchener, who has personally
interviewed all the leading cotton eX-
perts of Egypt, has taken prominent
part in the preparations for the sue
cessful completion of the scheme,
which will materially increase the
prosperity of the country.
