GENERALS FINISH
 MOST SUCCESSFUL
 SEASON IN HISTORY
Claim Made for South At lantic and Southern Cham pionship-YOung Was
 Star Player

Lexington, Va. March 1.-(Special) North Carolina by the score of 40 to 23, the Washington and Lee basket ball team closed it's season on Monday night without a single defeat and with what is considered clear title to both the south Atlantic and southern cham pionships. Thirteen victories over as many teams among which were North Carolina, Trinity, West Virginia, West Virginia Wesleyan, Roanoke college, University of Tennessee and Wander bilt. which had met and defeated teams the Generals did not meet, is the basis on which the championship claims are made.
 The season was the most success ful a Washington and Lee team ever had. North Carolina with 23 points/to it's credit scored more points than any opponent the Generals faced during the season and with University of Tennes- see and Wesleyan gave the Generals their hardest battle
 Coach "Jiggs' Donahue, who will go to Clemson next fall to take charge Ol dii dtHitlicS, IS gwen muCn or the credit for the teams success. Although Donahue had three of last years stars with whom to start the season, hit development of Adams and Nay and nearly dozen capable substitutes and the perfection of an almost impreg- nable five-man defense made the sea- sons result possible.
 ''Cy' Young, who played his last basketball game on Monday night, was in better form this season than ever before in his four years career at Washington and Lee. With Adams, whose work during the latter part of the season was remarkable he is ex- pected to be picked for an all-south Atlantic and an all-southern forward Captain "Al' Pierotti. who played at guard with Adams; Center Graham and Forwards Nay and Engleby performed consistently throughout the season. All of them except Young will be avail able for next years quint and with Substitutes Fain, Stuart, Mccain ana Bryant to select a successor from for Young, indications are that the Gen. erals of 1917-191S will be equally as strong as the champions of 1916-1917.

CT the Barons farmed out last season after a brief trial
 Farley will come to the Bar ons with good reputation He was recommended to Moley by a prominent baseball man in Gin cinnati. He may not make good this season. but another year in the bushes will prime him for Southern league baseball.
 Moley received a letter from Eddie Mcdonald yesterday from Albany N. r., where Eddie is Nwintering. Eddie said he would be here promptly on March 10,' said Moley. "T expect Eddie to have a great season. He was slightly off form last year and sick ness a greater part of the year, too, prevented him from offering his best services.
 Eddie, however, is an excellent ball player. He knows the game better than any infielder in the Southern league. The hidden ball trick is only an example of his smartness.
 T am anxious for the season to start" continued Moley T have been talking baseball since I arrived here over a month ago and now I am be- ginning to want to do something other than talk. The field at Redwood has been placed in perfect condition and everything is ready for the start"
 Things around the baseball head quarters are becoming more active every day. Within another two weeks every club in the league will be started on spring training, while in another month the Southern league season will almost be ready to start
 In the meantime President Smith of the Barons is taking things easy He's living in hopes of having another pros porous year for his farm at Spring vile and to be allowed to sit on the bench at Redwood after the season starts.
 And Scotty Chesnutt, too, is in spring training. Scotty is getting his eyes in good trim by the continuance on his daily exercise on the streets. Scotty, by the way, is expecting great season, if any happens to ask about him. According to Scotty, spring has arrived.

Those sport enthusiasts" who
were planning a heavyweight cham
pionship fight between Fred Fulton
and Jess Willard had their plans
knocked awry last night when Full
ton, badly licked in five rounds,
fOuled Carl Morris in a New York
ring.
The majority of the ringside crit
les hint that the Rochester man was
not careful in placing his blows and
didn't care much where they landed.
He had plenty of Morris goods and
was willing to let the affair go by de-
fault. The foul was a blow which
doubled Morris on the floor.
While the fight lasted Morris had
all the better of it and peppered Full
ton almost at will. The blows he
took in return lacked power to hurt,
and Morris made the fight according
to his own plans. He battled. at close
range and Fulton had no defense to
combat that style.
Tom Jones, manager Of Willard, is
afraid there can. be no fight between
the champion and Morris, for, he
says, Carl wouldn't draw enough
money at the gate. Whether Carl is
physically a fit opponent for Jess is
of little moment.

LABOR HTS AT WAR.


The Chicago Federation of Labor
last night sent the following war pro-
test to President Wilson:
"The common people do not want
war. We believe they will vote over
whelmingly against war if given the
opportunity, the trust-Owned press
to the contrary notwithstanding.
The strong defensive policy along the
line of armed neutrality already laid
down offers every protection that
could be obtained through declara-
ton of war. Our going to war will
not bring peace; it will prolOng the
struggle indefinitely. If we stay out
and protect our own rights, if we re-
fuse to be guarantOrs of the aims Of
belligerents or of war bonds held by
American bankers, we believe peace
negotiations will come before July.
No nation that allows itself to be
driven into war by its reactiOnary
element is acting along the line Of
real courage"
