tide was rising. and they would soon

his heart as he realized that the hor-
rors Of the night were past.
From the electric engines he went
to the petrol motors. These appeared
% be In good order. The oil fuel was
low, but there seemed to be a suffi.
cheney to take the F55 to Lerwick
without the necessity Of delaying In
order to search for deposit on the
island. The run would be of few
hours only, and Donald was anxious
not to delay. Davies and he and
Clouts could manage the boat during
the brief journey. and there would be
no need of the electric engines, since

might necessltate their submerging.

The captain had spent weeks on the

his investigations into his letter to

OF controlling them. And this was SO

BURTON RECEIVES
SAMPLE OF MEDALS
FOR URBANA MEET

The second annual inter collegiate
indoor relay carnival of the
University of Illinois will be
staged in the Armory at Ur-
bana Saturday, March g All kinds
OF events will be presented on the big
Armory floor, while medals and prizes
are to be given. At the first announce
ment OF the prizes that were to be
given it announced that the managers
Of this meet had planned to give out
gold watches and pins. The Illinois
State Athletic association does not al
low any person or institution to give
out medals that have a value Of more
than one dollar, so in the second an
nouncement of the carnival it an
nounced that all bronze medals would
be given instead Of the watches and
pins.
This date of March 2 seems to be a
popular one. The district tournaments
of the high schools have set their date
to March l and are going to play on
that date, while the managers of the
carnival also announced that their
date would also be on March l. About
the only schools that will be able to
enter this meet will be the Chicago
schools and the schools that do not
belong to the Illinois Athletic asso-
citation and who have extra men they
can spare from the basketball floor.

New York, Feb. 14.-That the fiuctu
alton in batting and pitching strength
among the stars of the National league
from year to year is not so great as
generally supposed, is shown by a
study Of the averages of recent sea-
sons. A comparison Of the work of
the leading 20 players during the past
five years develops some interesting
data along these lines.
Beginning with 1913 it is found that
the grand batting average of the 20
hitters of the league during that sea-
son was 1926. The following year the
percentage fell to 1903 and in 1915
dropped to 295. In 1896 it had moved
back to 1902, and last season the aver
age was .297, giving a five-year aver
age of 1903.
Over the same stretch of years the
20 leading pitchers, judged from the
standpoint of runs earned by oppon-
ents, improved in effectiveness stead
lily until 1917, when their work showed
a slump. At the end of the 1913 PEN
nant race the first 20 hurlers of the
National league showed an average Of
2.52 runs per nine-inning game. These
figures were gradually cut down TO
201 in 1916 and then rose to 231 at
the close of the pennant race of last
year.
The average team batting ability of
the eight clubs in these same five
years dropped from season to season
until 1917, when it rose two points

RIVALRY KEENER IN
MOTOR BOAT CIRCLES

Detroit, Feb. 1.-THE keen rivalry
between motor-boat enthusiasts of De-
troit. Minneapolis. Toledo, Cleveland
and eastern cities now is warmer than
ever. II is an open secret that sew
eral clubs are quietly building boats
for this summer that will smash all
of the remarkable records made in
the past five years.
1t has been learned from good au-
thority that Detroit motor boat own
ers are preparing to spend at least
$4,000 for new craft. Rumor has 1t
that the boat will have speed of Is
miles an hour. Chris Smith of Algo-
nae, Mich. who has been prominent in
revolutionized speed racing has been
quoted as declaring that the mica
minute craft will be considered obso-
lete in few years Smiths ambition
is to build speeder that will travel
100 miles in one hour. He believes
that 10 miles will be attained this
year.
