 GOES II MESA

In one of the best played and hard est fought basket ball games ever played in Phoenix, the Mesa high team was victorious over the Phoenix high team at the Armory last night thereby winning undsputed clam to the state interscholastic championship The visiting quintet mantained the lead throughout the game, emerging with the icng count of q il to 25 score.
 Not once during the game cid the Phoenix high team possess the ad- vantage. The Mesa quintet literally swept the Coyotes from their feet from the opening whistle and before the PkoeniX players had time to re- ceVer thelr balance, the visiting team had compiled such total that the final result was never thereafter ques- toned.
 The Coyotes played hard. consis- tent games but were up against better team. They showed flfshes oi form that forced the visitors Co take the defensive. but were never able to hold this advantage long. on the other hand, Mesa played a rushing battle taking advantage of every op- enins and shooting many baskets from difficult angles. Their basket shooting was far superior to that Of ,hc local team and the visitors also eNcelied in team play.
 The play during the first half was fast and hard, but both teams played clean tall The Mesa boys were lead ing at the half Way station by a score of 33 to s. Durng tais period they had practically everything their own way. tossing basket after basket from the middle of the floor Phoenix was un-
 NaN this period. with the result that they suffered
 The second period saw both teams playing stronger defensive game. This was especially true with the Coyotes The local squad was also able to make better heudway in shoot ing field baskets In the final period. Mesa counted IS points to r for Phoenix
 Burton at left guard was the indi- eidual star of the game His work was truly sensational. He not only prevented the Phoenix players from shooting baskets, but made 1t possible for his own team tu score many points by excellent passing.
 Skonscn center for the visitors was the biggest point maker he aions scoring almost as mnay points as the entire Phoenix team. He caged Il field eoals in the two periods John son was second high with six field goals and four foul baskets

 OBSERVES b|G LEAGUE RATING

According Co Coach Gilmour Dobie of the University of Washington, the foot ball team that gets away from straight football and intersperses it with open and aerial play is the most dan"erous opponent to meet II was this king of a game that the Washingtonians faced when they met the University of Cal ifOrnia.
 When a team sticks to old-t,rno hucking and conservative football, you can pretty well measure them up, and the advantage that either team Is go- ing to have" Dobie said, but when a team is composed of exceptionally fast men. as California's is. when they spe- cdlize in an open style of game, and when they are willing to take the chances that the southerners do, you can never tell what the next moment is going to develop They are the kind of a team that an advantage of single touchdown is really no advantage at all"

Measurements taken of more than fifty boWlers in the Northwest show that this sport has q tendency tO ce- velop one side of the body to the com parative neglect of the other side This appears to be the result only in the ease of those enthusiasts who are reg ular devotees Of the sport and make a practice Of rolling many games every day. The casual player Is unaffected.
 The following measurements are city of a player who rolls on an average of forty games a week. Right upper arm 13tz inches. left upper arm i2 inches: right forearm 1lA inches. left forearm lOA inches
 The thumb and middle finger of the bowling hand are found to be much larger than the corresponding fingers on the unused hand while the bowling wrist of one steady player measured One-third more than it's mate
 Many bOwlers cf the Pacific coast are expressing the hope that arrange ments can be made for the holding of a worlds championship tournament There are approximately a dozen sec fiOnal tournaments to be held in var ious parts of the country and 1t has been suggested that the winners of these tournaments be brought together during next May.
 Heretofore the American Bowling Congress has been said tO nave opposed such a scheme. claiming it's tournament to be the equal of a worlds champion ship event but it is thought the plan Tn view would meet with no objection.

Republican A. p. Leased wirel

SAN FRANCISCO. Calf, Dec. g. That the Pacific baseball league is en- titled to big league rating. is the opin- ion expressed by Manager Walter Mc- Credie, of the Portland club
 Four clubs in the Pacific coast league have parks that are within easy access of enough people to warrant big league franchises for their towns said McCredie.
 He believes that there are 550.G10 persons in Los Angeles at present be- sides the great number of tourists who are constantly passing throu"h the southern city.
 Counting the population of the inn mediate vicinity. he grants that there are fully 65000 persons settled within hailing distance. of Washington Park, Los Angeles.
 When the Angels are away, Vernon plays at Washington Park. making two Coast League clubs in line for the ma jor league honor.
 san Francisco and oakland are the other two clubs which McCredie says should outdraw several major league cities. II is said that there are 1000 900 persons in San Francisco. Oakland and other smaller places close al hand.
 There were 4l6,9l2 persons in San Francisco atFthe last census and 150. .lT4 in Oakland. Then there are Alameda with 20.0O0. Berkeley with 5000O, Richmand with 2O.000 and East Oak land with 10000. besides many other hamlets. McCredie thinks that there are soc, 900 people in san Francisco now, while he estimates Oakland al 225.O00.
 Salt Lake had 92,777 at it's last cen sus while 1t is estimated that there are at least 115.000 persons there now.
 There are about 275,0o0 persons in Portland.
 Although mono of the Coast League organizations had lost much money in the last few years" said McCredie, when ane thinks of the enormous field for baseball 1t fairly makes one isck to think that the sport Is not drawing better Los Angeles is not paying as it should and Salt Lake, the smallest town in the circuit, is one Of the best.
 I think that business will be better next year and that 1917 will find base ball what it should he and that all of the owners will make some money for themselves
 To strengthen his argument that Los Angeles, Vernon. Oakland and san Francisco are "big league" towns. Man ager MeCredie cited the population of several major league cities They follow.
 Cleveland. 56O 663. St. Louis. 6S1- O29. Boston, 67O.5S5. Pittsburg. 533, ,- g05; Detroit 465, 766: Cincinnati. 3G4.- 463. and Washington 33l. .O6s
 Milwaukee. the largest city in the American Association, a Class A league. has only 373.s57 people.
 "The Pacific Coast League should be the best class A circuit in the coun- try continued McCredie. "The sea . son is the longest and California af- lords the best baseball climate in the world. Of course We are handicapped by long jumps but this overcome by our week and sometimes two weeks stand in one city"
