Red and White Seem to Have
Edge on Rhode Island
Avenue Tossers.
ST. ALBAN QUINT PLAYS
By ARTHUR s. wRENN.


The Arcade basketball court will
be the scene of a double-header in the
high school series today and before
the day is over the championship will
in all probability be decided, as Bust
ness and Western meet in the first
game for the title. On form Western
should have a walkaway, as Business
has of late not been coming up to ex-
pectations. through the graduation of
some of the men and the change in
coaching.
Not since the sport was started in
the high schools has any high school
sport melted more interest than that
centered in the Interscholastic League
race, and as Western defeated Bust
ness in the first game of the series, in
which they met in comparatively easy
style, many of the followers. OF which
there are many, are looking for a rep
etition of the first dose.
The Western team. as IT stands at
present, is one of the strongest combi-
nations ever turned out by the local
schools. and although the entire team
has been suffering from grippe. the
going for them against Business this
afternoon should be easy.
The same team, with the exception
of Gulligan and Millofr, will represent
the Stenographers in the game today.
The new faces to be seen will in all
probability be Ralph Wise and Keech,
playing forward and guard. respec-
lively. Wise is brother to Buck and
was a member of the team last year
when Western defeated them for the
title.
In the second game Eastern and St
Alban, two evenly matched teams, will
take the floor. and from the present
indications this also should prove TO
be a good game.
The first game will start promptly
at o'clock. with Rice and Hughes
as the officials.
Probable line-ups:

BY WILLIAM PEET.

For some unknown reason, the Amer
lean League statistician failed to in
cluds in his list of American League
batting and fielding averages the marks
set by Joe Judge. the young first base
man OF the Nationals, who Joined the
club during the flag end Of the sea-
con and played his first game here on
September 20.
Judge took part in eleven games,
came to bat thirty-six times, and hit
for $50, which should place him ahead
OF Ty Cobb, the leader of the American,
League. Cobb's mark was $40.
Players taking part in ten or more
games are usually given rating when
statistics are compiled. yet Judge
played in ten full games and part of
another, and he Is completely ignored
According to Clark Griffith. Judge
batted something like Az, but the fg-
ures compiled by the official scorer In
Washington show that the Buffalo lad
Clouted the ball for $50.
It was probably an oversight on the
part OF the American League statistician
but. just the same, Judges name
should appear at the top of the list
local fans recall that Judge had been
IN the game only a short while when
he ran into the grand stand after a
foul fly and sprained his ankle. This
injury kept him out for several days.
In staging a ten-round bout at Ard
more between Champion Lightweight
Freddie Welsh and Tommy Lowe for
the afternoon of February 20. the pro-
noters are bringing here one OF the clev-
crest boxers who ever pulled on a

It has always been the cry Of those
who attend the Ardmore shows that
the club failed to trot out hrst-class
boxers.

this chatter, and II the show is not
well patronlzed the promoters cannot
be blamed il they refuse to spend big

With the gathering of the National

Gossip and Comment.

facts Of the schedules areN to be kept
secret for a few days.
There has been so much talk this win
ter about players that whatever impor-
tant legislation the magnates hope to put
through at New York this week has not
gained much publicity. 1t is understood
that the program calls for the National
League to get down to business today
and to make a vigorous effort to finish
up their affairs by late Wednesday after
noon. The magnates will attend the ban
quet Wednesday night, and then go tc
Philadelphia on Thursday for the annual
dinner OF the Philadelphia Sporting Writ
ers' Association, which is an event that
many plan weeks in advance to attend.
Throughout the Nationals circuit there
has been considerable talk of a number
of trades being started or wound up al
the meeting in New York. Several clubs
are burdened with a surplus Of players
and among the number are some that
they would gladly dispose OF for a star
on another team. Intimations have been
made that some shifts of players can be
looked for this week.
When the delegates to the United
States Lawn Tennis Association convene
in New York Friday night, it is predicted
that a fight will be started which will
affect the future Of tennis in general
seriously. and the association in particu-
lar. Here in the East the various tennis
delegates appear to have an idea that the
game cannot exist unless 1t is run just as
our Eastern representatives see fit; but
before the meeting is over they are
likely to learn that the Pacific Coast and
Middle West tennis delegates believe
otherwise and are willing to leave the
national body.
TsnniA experts and presidents of vari-
Gus associations on the Pacific Coast and
in the Middle West advocate a split
with the United States Lawn Tennis
Association unless the new amateur rule
is rescinded. Advices from the West are
to the effect that delegates to the meet
ing have been instructed not to give in
to the Fasteners under any conditions.
The barring If Mclaughlin, Johnston
and Bundy, three of the foremost figures
in the tennis game, which is certain to
take place because they Insist on selling
sporting goods in San Francisco, brought
about a showdown. Regardless of
whether the passing of the rule is justi-
fled. split between the West and East
will be a great blow to the game. Ten
mis- is growing faster in the West than
in the East, and TO the impartial OBJ
server il seems as IL the East Is going
to be the greatest loser in the event of a
break
