Tennis SOLONS DUE
FOR BUSY SESSION
Davis Cup Challenge to Be Issued and
New Amateur Rule Likely
to Pass.

/. New York, Dec. 12-Affairs dealing
with every department OF lawn tennis
will be carefully considered at the meet
ing Of the executive committee OF the
United States National Lawn Tennis AS
sociation which win be held in New York
next Friday. In all the history of the
American game no former session OF the
committee approaches this In Importance.
First OF all the details OF the Davis
Cup challenge for next year will be care
fully discussed Z. r. Torrey. secretary
of the association. and r. d. wrenn, the
president, have been 10 communication
with T. II. Hicks. OF the Australasia as
sociation. The war has left matters in
chaotic state in Australia The Davis
Cup stiil remains In New York because
1t was not deemed wise TO ship Il across
the Pacific to fan a prize to a German
man of war. 1t Is probable that the
United States will issue tentative chal-
lenge with the understanding that II may
be withdrawn II the war continues.
Already the ball question has assumed
serious shape because the English as
ISOLATION at its recent meeting considered
a resolution which is likely TO cause the
ball for the Davis Cup matches in the
future to be chosen by lot and not by
lAC i. AuOO
is chairman Of the ball committee
Walter l. Pate. secretary of the rank
ing committee, has written a report TO
be submitted with the rating which
covers twelve legal pages. or about 4,OoO
words in length. Frederick c. Inman,
chairman. and W. NJ. Hall have labor
iously worked over the ranking, which
will probably be issued at the end of
the week and finally dispose of the heat
ed discussion which has arisen as to
whether or not Mclaughlin or Williams
should be rated
Two or three more sections Of the coun-
try will be considered as additional en-
tries for the national sectional doubles
championships. L. H waidner, of Chi
cago; Ward c. Burton, Minneapolis. and
L D. Scott, Atlanta, will report on this
project
"A new amateur rule Is also likely TO be
promulgated for adoption at the annual
meeting in February. Indications point
to a full attendance OF the executive
committee and the session will continue
for two or three days.

pursuit. and Ghee's hnai tackling ability
as the last. resort.
Besides the men mentioned on the sec
ord and third elevens. there are num-
Der who should be commented upon be-
cause OF their work. The quarter backs.
Prichard, of West Point. Logan. OF Har-
ward, Clark. of Illinois. Pultz. Of Purdue.
Gooch. of Virginia, and Russell. OF Chi
cago. are all OF high class, and there
have been years when any one Of them
would have had a good chance In an ALL
American selection. In the back-feld
positions, this is true of Hastings and
Miller, of Pittsburgh, Toolan Of Williams,
westcott Of Tufts, Chamberlain and
Rutherford. Of Nebraskar-two men of re-
markable speed and weighing 1se-odd
pounds-stars in their section. In the line.
Coolidge of Harvard. Squier and Graves
Of Illinois, and Cherry, of Ohio State,
all ends, are especially worthy OF mention.
At tackle, Toohey OF Rutgers. Cochran
OF Michigan. and Shull. of Chicago. are
reliable. At guard, Trenkman, of Prince
ton, overin, Of Pomona, and Routh, of
Purdue. can bolster up any line. while
Journeay, of Penn. Is q sturdy center, as
u also Raynsford, CT Michigan.

performers. and il seems a shame to
keep these two men OF the first team.
Taylor was the best man in Carolina's
back field.
Injuries Handicap Murray.
But for injuries Freddie Murray.
Georgetown's captain would easily have
made a position of the first team. Muir
ray. when right. is a hard man to stop,
and on the defense he has no equal.
Foley, of Georgetown. also was a
capable man.
A number ot people Will wonder why
picked Riddick over Tenney. OF a.
and NJ, as full back. Tenney's case Is
similar to Freddie Nurray's, of George
town. He was unfortunate in the first
game of the year to injure his knee
His knee locks on him and cannot be
depended upon to play at all. Tenney
was unable to do himself justice in any
game on account Of this injury. and ii is
to be regretted that an unfortunate ac-
cident kept this star from playing the
game he Is capable of playing. Re
garding Riddick, he is one Of the hard
est working individuals l know Of On
the year has he failed TO gain when
given the ball. A man Of Riddick's
temperament is good enough to play on
any team.
Bauman. Of Roanoke College, is also a
worthy man in the back field He Is a
giant, Weighing l9 pounds, and would
be star on any Of the sectional teams
because OF his line bTeaking-ability.

FRITZ MAISEL LEADS
IN STEALING BASES
Lively Little Yankee Shortstop Pur
loins Seveny-four Sacks
in Season.

Local fans will be interested to learn
that the little speed marvel. Fritz
Maisel. the ertswhile Baltimore short
stop who cavorted numerous after
Moons about the Ferry street ball park,
kept the catchers of opposing teams in
the American League pretty busy dur
ing his season in the big show last
year.
Maisel stole seventy-four bases, with
an official batting average of .239. Now,
everyone knows the speed and the skill
Of Eddie Collins on the paths. yet the
second baseman of the Athletics stole
sixteen bases less than Maisel, in spite
of the fact that he hit 129 points high
er. Even by the medium of passes Col
lins reached first more often than his
rival. He drew ninety-seven tickets to
seventy-six for MS.seL The number of
times each batter reached first by force
out or error is not available, but on
the basis of hits and passes alone Col
Inns got on 276 times and MaiseI only
207.
Milan. of Washington, was way off
his earlier form and stole only thirty
eight bases. Iris Speaker. who never
was considered any great marvel on
the bases, in spite Of his speed. showed
greater skill than ever before and an
neXed forty-two sacks.

EDDIE COLLINS OUT;

Cannot Understand Why Mack Let
His Keystone Sack Guardian

1t is just about a year ago that Connie
Mack made the statement that he con-
sidered Eddie Collins to be worth 500,
OoO. That was after his second baseman
affixed his signature to a long time con-
tract. A short time prior TO that the Fed
eral eague agents had tempted Collins
with an offer said at that time to have
been SjO.OoO. Just why he should have
let out the brainy keystone sack guard
ian after issuing that statement is a
mystery to the fans now, particularly
those of Philadelphia.
In fielding last season he did better
than any year since his entry into organ
ized baseball in 1906. attaining a mark
of $40 In 1910 his fielding mark was
exactly the same and has been a trife
under that in the other years. In 1910 he
batted on .322 against .3A last year, MAX
ing it positively the best in his career for
all around work. Collins is q years old.

weights 160 pounds. He is a graduate of

SIMS AND WESTON CONFIRMED.
Action Settles Two South Carolina
Contests OF Long Standing.

Washington, Feb. 1S.-By confirm
ing this afternoon the nominations OF
Francis H. Weston, Of Columbia, to
be district attorney, and James l..
Sims, of Orangeburg, to be United
States marshal, both for the Federal
District Of South Carolina, the Sen
ate settled finally two contests which
have been watched with absorbing
interest by the people of the Palmet
to State. Confirmatory action was
taken by the Senate Just nine days af-
ter the nominations were sent in by
the President.
Some months ago the President Sc
lected Messrs. Weston and Sims for
district attorney and marshal, re-
spectively, the two most lucrative
Federal offices in South Carolina,
next to the United States District
Judgeship. AT that time it was un-
derstood that, through an agreement
said to have existed between Sena-
tors Tillman and Smith, there would
be no delay in the nominations being
sent to the Senate by the President,
but those who held to such belief
were disappointed.

PRESIDENT TO VETO TEST.
Lets lG BE Known That He Disap.
proves Literary Clause.

Washington, Feb. 16.-President
Wilson will veto the Burnett immi-
grafton bill if it comes to him for
signature with the so-called literary
test contained in it.
This became known tonight from
an authoritative quarter, after Chair
man Smith. of the Senate Immigra-
tion Committee, had announced that
the bill virtually as it passed the
House, including the, literary test,
would be favorably reported to the
Senate soon. Prospects are that the
bill will pass the Senate as reported
from the committee, but the measure
never will become law, according to
close friends Of the President, who
does not consider literacy test Of
character, and believes some other
means should be devised to prevent
undesirable aliens from entering the
United States. He told callers to-
day that he had given his view to the
Senate committee and had left it to
them to make it public or not as they
choose.
