ian who has given a good account of himself. Perhaps the best of 'em all, however, was George Memsic, who finished his active ring career a couple of years ago. Memsic, who was also known as Jimmy Burns, was born in Streator, H., 33 years ago today, January II, 1882. In ten years he took part in more than three-scorc bouts, meeting many of the best lightweights. In 1903 he fought draw with Young Corbett Later he defeated Adam Ryan at Denver and again at Peoria. and knocked out Charlie Neary in the sec ond round at Los Angeles. In 1907 he fought Joe Cans for the light weight title at Los Angeles, and stayed the full twenty rounds with the "Old Master but lost the decision. After fighting Ad Wolgast a ten-round draw. he was matched with Ad for the title at Los Angeles in 1911, but was knocked out in the ninth chapter. Memsic's last important bout was at Medford, Ore, in 1912, when Bud Anderson knocked him out.

Empires in the major and minor leagues are very much alarmed over the crushing news that has been sent out that their salaries next year will be cut almost to nothing. The Ma tional and American leagues, it is said, will trim as much as S400 off each mans yearly stipend and the minor magnates are going to use the pruning knife to such an extent that the capable men are preparing Go look for other jobs Said a well-known official last night: "I cant see why the players should get all the money.

New York, Jan. 11.-The same con- sity last month, when it was found that one of the graduate departments had organized an athletic team with out the authorization of the proper authorities, were brought to light at Fordham yesterday when 1t was learned that a team from the Phar- macy School had been playing and arranging basketball games under the name of Fordham. This fact was brought to light when it was announced in the papers yesterday that the Cooper Union Institute qun- tet had vanquished the Fordham five by a score of 43 to ?. This an nouncement caused considerable in- dignation among the student body because, while the above game was being played, the real Fordham team was scoring 45 to 22 victory over Brooklyn College at the latter's court.
 The matter was immediately taken up by the Faculty Board and the Ex- ecutive Committee of the student or ganization after class yesterday morning. Lester w.

 It was learned that the team had already played a game against Com pany F at Elizabeth last week, where it scored a victory over the militia players.
 A few years ago an effort was made at the Fordham Law School to organize a basketball team, but the movement was defeated by the rep resentatives of the other schools of the Maroon university. Since then all efforts were directed to support ing the Varsity organization, and, although interde epartment tourna- ments were held, 1t was underst ood that any contests scheduled with teams outside of the university would not receive sanction.

It is proverbial that clergymen's sons usually come to some bad end. There's the case of Max Canaris, for instance. Max was one of the five male offsprings of a respected Lu- theran minister. His home environ ment was of the best. Yet in spite of the loving care and religious teach ings of his parents he became pir. ate. Be 1t said to his credit that he changed his name before embarktng on the career of a bucaneer, and thus the name of Canaris has never been trailed in the dust.
 This bold, bad man of the Canaris clan carries on his piratical operations from the Atlantic seaboard to the Mississippi, although Pittsburg has long been his main rendezvous. In other words, Max Canaris, is the Ca rey known to more or less fame as an outfielder for the Pittsburg Pir- ates. Max was born in Terre Hautc, Ind, just quarter of d century ago today, January Il, 1890. In the fam fly councils it was proposed that Max should follow in his fathers foot prints and preach the gospel. With that end in view he was sent to Con- cordia college. AS q student of theol- ogy he was bully athlete. He was shortstop of the college nine, captain of the basketball club, and skipper of the track team. This didn't leave much time for the study of theology His vacations were spent in Terre Haute shortstopping for nine which bore the ir-religious name of the Champagne Velvets. 1t was at this period that Max sent the honored family name to the discard and adopt ed the monaker of Carey, which was usually prefixed by the nickname of "Scoops.' In 1909, during the college vacation. Carey had his first profes- sional experience as shortstop for the South Bend Central league club. Tho 1 following year he completed his theo-

A marked change is reported in that

This fact not only speaks we'll for
