WANT PREP SCHOOL
BASKETBALL LEAGUE
Efforts VIII he Wade to Form such
Organization ut Meeting Next
Thursday.

A meeting Of the Richmond Prepar-
atory School Athletic Association will
be held next Thursday afternoon in
the Young Mems Christian Associat ton
building at which time efforts Will he
made to organize a prep-school bas-
ketball league.
Attempts to from such an organiza =
ton in years past have been fruitless
and there is hardly probability that
the four schools represented In the
league will agree to place team in
league this season. John Marshall
High School and Benedictine Collegs
have always turned out basketball
teams. but Mcf5uire's and the Academy
have not been taking part in this
branch Of athletics. However. an at
tempt will be made to form the or
ganization, even though ii falls
through.
Another important matter that will
come up for consideration is the an
nual winter track meet between the
four prep schools. which will be held
some time In February at the Blues
Arnory. This meet always attracts
lot OF attention, and the schools are
already making preparations for tho
events.

Richmond College
to Elect Captain
Following Game

Following the game this afternoon
the Richmond College players will
hold a meeting and elect captain for
tho 1915 eleven. While three have
been mentioned in connection with this
position, Ii liz understood that Bert
Robins name Is the one most promi-
nently mentioned for the honor. How
ever. there are so many good players
on the Richmond College team that it
will be hard to select the best man for
the position.
This is Bert's third year on the team
and he has been playing q great game
for the Spiders since he entered the
Baptist institution. He form arly
played with John Marshall with which
team he made an enviable record. Bert
Ii good man and would make the
Spiders an excellent captain.

VIRGINIA LEAGUE
STILL UNCERTAIN
Just which Citaes VIII Comprise Class
6 Circuit Has Net Been De-
csAe6.

II Is still very doubtful as to which
cities will be represented next sea-
son in the Virginia State League. A
meeting will be held In Norfolk De-
cember 6. at which time this matter
will be disposed Of
While Hopeweil will make a strong
bid for the erstwhile Petersburg fran
chise, 1t has not yet been definitely
settled as to whether the mushroom
city will be admitted into the organi-
zation. 1t is known fact that the
club will have a large financial back
ing. and will be in the hands OF promi-
nent men. II Is believed that II would
be a paying proposition inasmuch as
1t would draw from both Hopewell and
Petersburg. While many OF the Pc
tersburxers are SO busy these days that
they have not the time to see base
ball, there are some left who would
attend the games.
Wilmington, NJ c., will make an eff
fort To procure the franchise and when
the moguls gather some prominent men
from the Tarheel city will be on hand
to ask for sdmittance.
One of the most important bust
ness matters to be taken up is the
election Of president. President
Boatwright says he has had enough,
and will tender his resignation at the
meeting. There are several names be-
ing mentioned In connection with this
important office.

Coach Reiss' underlings are also In

Public Approves rrsangses.

Triangle plays at the Bijou have
fully sustained all OF the promises
made by the management prior to
their presentation. Indeed, from the
pubiic's viewpoint. not the half was
told in the advance notices. The best
possible proof of this Is the fact that
the Bijou has been playing to ever
increasing audiences throughout the
opening week Of this theater under the
Triangle policy. The diversity OF SUBJ
jects offered in the three hour enter
tafnment. the eight-minute intermis
sion. the orchestra. to say nothing of
the excellence Of the Grifiith-Ince Sen
nett productions-aII combine to make
OF Triangle plays the very ultimate Of
screen drama perfection. Next week
there will be an entire change OF
program. with two Keystone Sennett
productions. an Ince and Griffith
play. the four being divided into two
acts OF one and a half hours. with an
intermission Of eight minutes. The
augmented orchestra will again play
especially selected music.
