AMERICAN FIVES
IN CLOSE RACE
Winner Hard to Pick and
Play-Of Looks Fore
gone Conclusion

With three teams-Dobson, Hancock
and Yours Truly-deadlocked for first
place, 1t is difficult task to select the
probable winner of the first half of the
American Basketball League pennant.
Each team must play two games
more before the first half Is finished and
1t Is quite likely that a play-off will be
necessary. The remaining schedule of
the leading teams follows: Hancock vs.
VictriX and Wilbar Yours Truly VS..
Wilbar and Victrix and Dobson vs.. S.
+, III. A. and st. COLUMBIA
1t will be noted that both Yours Truly
and Hancock draw the same opponents
IN the remaining games, while Dobson
has by far the hardest road to travel,
especially when they oppose ST. COLUMBIA
next week.
Jim Coffey, manager OF the champions,
has waited all along for George Deitrick
and Tom Dunlevy to be released from
the navy, and now that they have not
returned has bolstered, his lineup by
signing Jack Lawrence, Big George
Horse Haggerty and Lou Martin.
Hancock again made the best showing
FOR the week and their 22 to 21 victory
over Dobson was we'll deserved. Mitch
Hopkins's crew captures the honors for
teamwork and passing. and this is only
natural. when II Is considered the many
years this crowd has been working to-
gether.

American War, in which he made an
excellent record, but He was such an
expert In handling aviators that the
Government believed him more valuable

Colonel Miller is one of the few who
holds a congressional medal awarded to
him for distinguished service and bra

natives had a machine gun trained on

Auiation Major Believes
Athletics for Group
Should Be Run by Penn
Physical Education De-
pdrtn,ent
TELLS OF ARMY LIFE
By EDWIN J. POLLOCK


MAJOR MYLIN ]. PICKERING. who
A'1 bossed Penn athletics until he was
called into the service year ago, has a
suggestion to make on the methods by
which the Quaker authorities should try
to carry out the recommendations of the
National Collegiate Association in rela-
tion to mass athletics
The former Red and Blue graduate
manager believes that sports for the
mass of the students should be left UP
TO the physical education department, of
which DR.. r. TAFT Mckenzie is the head,
and that the general intercollegiate ath-
letics should be run as usual by the ath-
letic association.
Major Pickering has had considerable
experience with athletics as applied to
military camps. He has seen the work,
and, in fact, has played a prominent
part in the management of sports in the
aviation camps at Waco. Tex, and Gar
den City, n. Y. He says that Of all the
games devised to allow groups to par
ticipate the soldiers like shuttle relay
races and Swat the Kaiser" the best.
Suggests Relays
why not take the students when they
report for gymnastic classes" said the
Major: bring them out OH Franklin
Field or Museum Field and put them
through shuttle relays and other games.
such as Swat the Kaiser?
There is no competitive feature about
the latter game, but it is good, whole
some fun. In the shuttle relays, how
ever, companies were matched against
companies. At the University the classes
could be divided for the game"
Penn men expect Major Pickering back
at his desk in the athletic association as
graduate manager shortly after the first
of the year, but It is doubtful If he will
be able to get mustered out. of the service
for some time. He is at present handling
material and men in the aviation corps
from overseas and is swamped with work
at the Garden City camp.
Likes the Life
Major Pickering likes military life
and hates to get back to civilian activi-
ties, although he Is anxious to take hold
at Penn again. He enthused when a
friend asked him how he liked life in a
camp
"It was great" he replied ut put
me in good condition and the surround
ings were far beyond expectations. 1

corded me by the regular army officers.

lar officers. ! was the only National
Guard officer assigned to the camp. Fo,
this reason I kept to myself at first
but they sought me out and showed me

I was convinced that the so-called gulf

loyal adherence to the alliance with
the entente should be published in the
United States.
An audience was arranged. The
king insisted in speaking English, al
though he is not a complete master
of English because, he said. he was
anxious to make his position abso-
lutely clear to the American people
and thought that 1t could be done
better in plain English than through
translation from the French or Ru-
manian.
Unfortunately, the interview was
started to the United States by way OF
Odessa. A strike of bolshevik tele-
graph operators. there pevented it
from going any farther.
On the subject of peace proposals by
the central powers. then the all i'm
portant subject in Jassy. the king in
the interview declared:
Separate Peace Dishonorab1e."
'It would be unthinkable for Ru-
mania to accept peace without the
consent of her allies. For Rumania to
make such a peace would be an act of
dishonor"
Concerning his relations with the
German and Austrian emperors, the
king said:
Il can understand sovereigns being
angry against each other, but I cam
feelings of hatred toward one another
A sovereign cannot always act ac-
cording to his personal dictates or ac-
cordfng to family ties, but must carry
out the will and interest of his peo-
pie"
In looking over the final draft of
the interview the king said he wish
ed to emphasize particularly the clos
ing paragraph, in which he had ex-
pressed sope that around the final
peace tan, Rumania's welfare would
be the particular care and solicitude
of the American delegates. He called
for his colored wax pencils and un-
derlined in blue. then in red, each
line Of the closing paragraph, which
said:
For the never failing support and
sympathy of your great government
and people I wish you to convey to
the entire American nation the heart
felt gratitude Of my people and my
self. That splendid support and SYM
pathy encourages US to believe that
when the flag of peace is unfurled
throughout Europe and when the ma

,, their differences America will not
forget her ally and friend in the
