INDIANAPOLIS, Feb. 1.-The re- markable basketball skill shown by Homer Stonebraller, center on the Wa bash College basketball team. has caused many experts to declare that he is undoubtedly the greatest individual basketball star in the country. With a. team built around Stonebraker the small Wabash College has the leading team of the middle west.
 Illinois speedy team. Purdue's quin- tet of stars and many other college teams of championship class have been defeated by Wabash on their own floors. While the other men on the team with Stonebraker are first-class performers, it is always clear that he almost alone is winning the Wabash victories The Em-Roes, an independ- ent team that claimed the national title after going undefeated for three sea sons and winning eighty seven straight games was outcla ssed by Wabash and the individual work of Stonebraker was enough to turn the trick.
 Stonebraker is considered by many to be a whole team in himself and those who have watched the games he has had part in are willing to admit that he is all of that. His basket shots are faultless. He makes many pass that the avera ge player would never think to attempt. They are all of them fast and sure. In addition to being bas- ketball star Stonebraker is an all- round performer at track and field sports. He is fresh from an Indiana farm. giant in size and extremely 1 agile and speedy.

 There are some very quiant pie turseQue native dances in the land of Nippon, especially those of the geisha girls. The "Orian Dochu." a dance arranged for the out-of- doors. which is more a procession than dance and is held annually bn the streets of the leading cities of the empire, was the one forbidden by the rulers of the country. The reason assigned is that the dance was thought to have a demoralizing effect on the crowd of spectators who witnessed il.
 Collections to the dance never were based on the ground of nudity how ever for the geisha girls performing it always were perfectlN clothed in soft silken kimonas. Fault was found is seems, with the movements incl dental in the dance. 1t was a dance .------~---5,-~ ~r tho ~hv abandon and

CHICAGO. Feb. l1-Twenty two riders paired into eleven teams got away at 1O:3O tonight in Chicagos sixth annual six-day bicycle race. The event will be finished next Saturday night.
 Clarence Carman of Long Island. and George Wiley, of Syracuse, N T., were forced to withdraw. as Wiley was at tackled with pneumonia. There IS chance, however, that Carman will get into the race before the finish, as some of the other contestants may be forced to drop out.
 Reggie McNamara, an Australian, and Francisco Verri, of Italy, are re- garded as favorites.
 Percy Lawrence and Willie Hanley, of San Francisco, who won the six day event in Chicago two years ago, are regarded as strong contenders.
 Furious sprinting marked the first hour of the grind. Verri shot into the lead at the start and maintained it until Worth Mitten, of Davenport Iowa, after a five-lap sprint, took the lead.
 The track, of ten laps to the mile, is said to be fast and new records are ex- pected to be made. The following teams started:
 Reggie McNamara, Australia, and Francisco Nerri, Italy; Harry Kaiser and George Cameron. New York; Eddie Madden and Peter Drobach, Newark; Victor Linart and Michael de Baetes, Belgium: Jacob Magin, lrvington, N. J., and Frank Cory, Australia; Percy Lawrence and Willie Hanley. San Fran cisco; Joseph Kopsky, New York. and Tim Sullivan, New Haven; Worth Nit ten, Davenport, and Willie Spencer, Toronto, Can; Charles Piercey, Aus tralia, and Tom Smith, Newark; Lloyd Thomas, San Francisco. and Martin Ryan, Newark: Ernest Ohrt San Fran cisco, and Tom Grimm, Norwalk These riders by covering 26 miles and s laps, established a worlds record for the event during the first hour. The distance was two laps better than the old mark. Drobach and Madden were in the lead at the end of the first hour.
 Willie Hanley of San Francisco was knocked unconscious during the second hour when his machine was smashed in a collision with two other riders. Hanley will likely resume the race later

dainty holdness which has made the geisha unparalleled among dancing girls.
 The dance as originally performed was a slowly moving procession, flowery. beautifully garbed parade of girls who lived behind lacquered lat tices the other 364 days of the year. The procession WoVe m and Out through the dense crowds of the To- Bio streets, each girl smiling coyly and dancing as she moved along.
 The dance was prohibited about two Wears ago in Japan When Madame SadaA Aakllo announced that she would revive it on the American stage, the Purity Society of Japan, of which Saburo Shimada. chairman of the house of representatives, is president raised objections, and the Salvation Army branch in TOkio added it's voice to the protest. The plans of the actors, together with the opposition voices were heard by the state depart ment where it was alleged that re- production of the dance in question would be detrimental to the honor and dignity of the Japanese people. Act ing on this information, the state de- partment refused to issue necessary '-~enOrts to the girls.
