ed in baskets from every angle of the

hard game and fought to the final
whistle,
Coach Clancy said after the game
that A. A. U, rules such as are played
by the high school, would have made
a better game than the Intercollegiate
rules under which the game was played.
The college men play under lntercol-
legiate rules in the conference and the
high school boys use the A. A. u, and
when they played the style of game
most familiar to the college they were
under Il handicap from the start,
But rules or no rules, the nigh school
was outclassed by the University, and

kcts from the field, Sharp five and
Dudley fonr. Reinhart scored two bas-
kets for the high school and four points
from three throws, Keene and Lowe
each made one basket.
The game was rough and hard fought
but free from intentional fouls. Two
teams laying as aard as the oposing
teams of last night will naturally fol,
but the best of sportsmanship prevail
ed, Coach Bezdek said that he consid.
cred Referee Utter to be one Of the
best officials he had seen this season,
and he was loud in his praises Of the

While the high school lost the boys

Joe Slmgrue lacks just one thing, "
according TO Frank Erne MS quoted in

because while he 5 hitting he's throwing
himself in. He has no base to hit
from.
Most boxers strike from where
they stand, writes Dick Kam in n
Philadelphia paper "thus lessening the
effects Of their blows. Were they to
step in with the punch IL would be
much harder as it would be backed up
by their weight which would add trc

Sports Wonder at Selection
Made BY Promoter Johnson

White as his admirers looked for, and
while there is no disposition to take
anything in the way Of credit from
Charley White, Joe appeared to be away
Off IN his work. In fact, Joe IS recent
performances have not been anything
to brag os, even in the go with Welsh
in whicn he was the aggressOr and pop
ular winner.
1t was one of the first to call atten-
tion to Shugrue as championship pos.
sibility, More than a year ago in this
column praise was given to Shugrue be-
fore other experts recognized the boy S
ability. But to my mind Joe has not
improved to any extent the last year,
and it begins to look as il there is
something lacking that will keep him
from getting any higher in the divis.
ion than that Of an "aspirant. "
White Just at present stacks up as
more promising. But Charley also is
minus that something" champion
must possess, Shugrue has aggressive
ness without the punch, aud White
seems to have the wallop but lacks the
fighting instinct.
Shugrue may have had too much Of
it the past year, and White also, for
that matter. 1t is dangerous to rush
these fellows toe fast. 1t took Welsh
many years to get to the top, aud with
the possible exception of Ritchie most
champions of the class have had to 60
through hard drilling, sometimes ex.
tending over six or seven years Of the
hardest kind Of fighting, before land
ing the title
OF Charley White ! can't say, but
Shugrue is not fighting as well as he
was a year ago, and if had the boy
in charge would see to it that he took
u vacation from the ring for couple
Of months.
BY the way, Freddy Welsh, wao was
wont to dub Ritchie a no.decision
champion, is taking rather kindly to
those affairs himself. II seems to me
that it is time Frederick gave one Of
the boys chance at his title over a
long route, While California is no
lclgcr in the field, New Orleans is
there with both feet and Messrs. Tor.
toricn and McCarey who have joined
hands in the Crescent city, are anxious
to book the champion over the 2O-round
distance.
Both White and ShugWe, to say moth.
ing Of Willie Ritchie, have earned the
right to battle Welsh fCr the title, aud
by accepting offers to meet the cham
Ipion in short nodecision contests they
are playing right into Welsh S hands
If they held out for longer bouts public
opinion would son force Freddy to ae
ccde to their demands. As it is noH
this l0round no.decsion thing is wa
ter on the champion Is wheel.
