Two unbeaten teams meet today at
Annapolis when GeorgetowRs basket
ball team pays its annual visit to the

created ali unusual amount of inter-
est due to the fact that both quints
have a clean record.
The navy has defeated Hopkins, c.

lie University. Seven games have
been won by the Midshipmen under
the tutelage OF James Collif,ower, a
Washington man and former George
town player.
Georgetown's record Is an excep-
tional one, and the team is rated as
quite the best John OReilly has
turned out. Like the Navy George
town has been unbeaten during the
year. Victories have been scored
over Mt. St. Joseph's twice, George
Washington. Gallaudet. and Hopkins.
Both teams will start the same

RUNS OVER MILLION
Major League Players Drew Huge
Fortune for 1915 Season.

NEW YORK, Jan. 24.-It was
stated the other day that players un-
der contract to the sixteen major
league clubs drew about 81 100000 In
salaries last year. 1t may further
interest the baseball public to know
how much each club owner paid to
his diamond experts.
The salary list of the Giants, not
including McGraw, was $4,000, IL
Ia said. The Brooklyn club paid
$4,000 to Uncle Robie's men.
According to Weeghman. the Cubs
salaries amounted to $4,000.
The Braves received not less than
SOC, 900, while the Phillies drew down
at least $4,000 from President w. F.
Baker. The Cincinnati Reds took down
$4,000, the salary list of the st.
Louis Cardinals was SIS, 900, and the
Pirates received not less than SIS, 900.
Summing up the totals, IL may be
said without fear of contradiction
that the salaries of the National
League players amounted to almost
$T5O,0OO.
In the American League salaries
were higher. The Yankees received
$125,0OO from Colonel Rupert and
Captain Huston, who cleared about
$780, 900 on the season. The Red SoN
consumed a payroll of $4,000, and
former President Lannin made some
money for the first time in three
years.
me salaries OF the White Sox to-
tailed $4,000. and Comiskey had
prosperous year. In Detroit the
-''~r-~ drow more than 500, 900 from
Owners Navin and Yawkey, inelud-
ing Ty Cobb's salary of $4,000.
The Cleveland payroll amounted
to sos, 900, and the Washington club,
including $4,000 drawn by Walter
johnson, paid out $4,000. The sala-
ries of the st. Louis Browns footed

letics received at least 1000 for
losing more than 100 games.
The American League clubs, there
fore, were obligated to the extent OF
$4,000, or a grand total OF 81, 525,-
900, which was divided among less
than 400 players in the rival circuits.

MITCHELL SIGNS UP
Tigers Veteran southpaw Ignores
Rules Of Fraternity.

DETROIT. Jan. 2I.-willie Mitchell.
the veteran left-hander that the
Tigers rescued from Cleveland last
June. has signed his contract for 1917
ard sent it along.
Willie didn't have much of a rec
ord last season. either in games won
or In average Of earned runs pc: nit
ted per game. In fact, he was, with
one exception. the least effective
finger on Detroit's stan. with only
Boland below him. The Sardis port
slider really did better work here than
the records would show, however. for
he got a bad start while with the In
dams. and found IL impossible to
bring his average up to a respectable
figure.
There is no reason why he cannot
regain his former skill and turn in
some fine games this year. He Is not
vet twenty-seven years OF age and
should be just in his prime. Mitchell
generally is credited with being con-
siderabIy older than he is, because
he came into the majors very young.

PREPS WOULD PLAY
SCHOOLBOY WINNER
Army and Navy Lads Want
Crack at Scholastic Basket ,
bali Title.

The Army and Navy Preparatory
School basketball team, through
Frank Newberry, today issues a chaI-
fenge to the winner of the High
School Basketball League or any
scholastic quint in the city.
The Props have established q record
SO far this season in winning FIVE
straight games. defeating Episcopal
High School last Saturday for the first
time in history on the floor at the
Alexandria school.
Record L. Clear.
The record of the Prep team is
clear in every respect. Yesterday the
Props took Gonzaga into camp by a
score of SO to 16 and were never ex-
tended. Gonzaga was held to FIVE
floor baskets, while the Props Gagged
Twenty-Five, Baker leading with nine
from the floor.
Coach Mike Clancy has several
rangy youngsters in tow. Baker and
Cassell form an ideal pair of for
wards. Allison in center was quite
the best of the schoolboy pivot men
last year Forgetti, Gilmartin. Linke,
and Kelly have been playing guards.
Wins Five Straight.
The PrepsShave wone five straight
games to date. Tech was defeated by
35 to 81 in the opening contest.
Western was downed 3S to 2. Eastern
AZ to 16, Episcopal 81 to &c and Con
zaga by SO to 10.
The Props appear to be excep-
tionaI passers and possessed of dead
Iy accuracy when 1t comes to cagtng
the ball. Cassell and Baker have
averaged better than seven baskets a
game during the season.

SCHEDULE SHIFTED
FOR SCHOOL TEAMS
Business Meets Western Friday
and Tech Again on Next
tuesday.

A shift in the schedule OF the High
School Basketball League has been
made and the first contest OF the
second half of tie series, that between
Business and Western, will be played
Friday before the regularly scheduled
final battle, that between Tech and
Business.
Early in the season Tech asked q
shifting of dates, making known its
want to play Business yesterday in
stead OF Friday, as scheduled. Bust
ness agreed to the date, and the con-
test was to have gone on yesterday
after the Western-Central battle.
Buck Wise Is Ill.
The illness of Buck Wise as well as
the indisposition OF Macdonald.
prompted Coach Paul White to ask
Tech to postpone the engagement set
for yesterday.
Western was asked to take the
Friday date and to allow the Bust
ness-Tech game to be staged next
Tuesday. The Westerners agreed, and
will take the floor against Business
on Friday, while Tech is journeying
to Martinsburg, w. Va, TO met the
Y. NJ. c. A. there on that day.
Both Wise and Macdonald are eX-
pected to be in the lineup for Fri
day. Held has been out of school
for some time, and Coe recently re-
turned after being away for a long
enough period to render him unfit
for playing at such short notice.
Only One Game On.
There was but one game yesterday,
instead of two, and Central took
Western into camp by 33-to-2O score.
The game was poorly played, neither
team exerting itself in any respect.
The work of DAILY, of Central, as an
individual, and the superior team
work of the Central team stood out
during the forty minutes of play.
In justice to Western 1t may be
said that the Red and White boys re-
ceived the worst of the breaks in
caging the ball. Many shots trimmed
the ring and dropped off, failing to
count. In the second and fourth
quarters Western outplayed Central
but could not catch up.
tombstone Does Well.
Johnny" tombstone, Westerns
guard, played good individual
game, but oyerlayed the ball at times
The Westerners failed to show the
speed of other games. Central, on the
other hand, got going with all five
players in the passing, and rarely
failed to end up rush UP the floor
with a basket from some clever pass
ing.
Central appeared to have improved
since the Business game, and can be
reckoned with when the second hall
of the season comes on. Team work
is playing an important part in Cen
trails play, and the other teams will
find a worthy opponent next month.
