Lincoln Defeats Quinn in
Fast Game

Only two league games were
played last week in the Y. M. C. A..
Community Basket Ball League, but
the heavyweight contest between
Lincoln and Quinn was one of the
best games played this year. Lincoln
boys started out from the first
whistle to demonstrate that they
could outstrip the hard checking
Quinn team. When the half time bell
sounded they led 1913. Quinn came
back in the second half and scored
four points before Lincoln could
catch their breath. Then is was a
battle royal, each side raining shots
at the baskets from all angles. In
the closing minutes of the game Will
son and Blanchet of Lincoln Gagged
two apiece and this put the game on
ice. The final score was 24-16.
Machin was the individual star of
the game. He played strong often
sive and defensive game throughout
and was responsible for points. For
Quinn John Hines and Arlie Randall

divided honors, each scoring three
baskets. The team work of Quinn
was better than Lincoln but they
could not find the net when points
were needed.
In the lightweight section St.
Marks defeated Institutional 20-2.
As usual the youngsters from Insti-
tutional put up scrappy game
against the greatest odds of height
and weight. Next year they should
have a good team and will bear
watching.
In practice game Charles
Slaughter's Lincoln Colts defeated
Raymond Keen's "Neversweats" a
pickup team by narrow margin of
four points. The game was interest
ing and fast.

"a reprint from the Champion
Magazine.)

Somewhere in France the forces
of Great Britain were playing havoc
with German trenches and the Teu-
tonic theory, "Deutchland ueber
Allies" blu using gigantic, unstop-
pable, caterpillar-like machine termed
the tank; somewhere in New England
the eleven of Brown University is
even more successfully routing the
enemy, by utilizing powerful, equal
ly unstoppable engine termed Fritz
Pollard. AS yet human ingenuity
has created no device for combating
the uncanny "drives" of these ter
rible mechanism. Of the two experts
agree the latter is the more formid-
able, in that it possesses human
brain, human musculature and human
athletic perfection.
Fritz Pollard, the multiple-cylinder
engine of the Brown football squad,
was born in Rogers Park, Chicago,
in the year 1895. His preadolescent
history was uneventful except for
the usual children's diseases, mumps,
chicken pox and measles. He finished
grammar school in Rogers Park with
out any untoward symptoms. His
pulse was normal, so his mother
washed his face and sent him to Lane
Tech. to learn football. Before Fritz
went to high school he spent his spare
hours reading about the superhuman
feats of his brother Leslie at Dart
mouth; but after he had made the
prep eleven it was all he could do to
find time to read about himself. This
young Pollard seemed to have been
born into the game. His speed was
SO great it was hard for the specta-
tors to keep track of him, much less
his opponents. His school appropri-
ated championship honors the years
he lent his assistance; and when his
term had expired. college coaches the
country over made leap-year grab
for the dusky phenom. On account
of previous record, Fritz decided in
favor of the East and turned his nose
away from the stockyards.
On account of the ruling against
freshmen performances, Pollard's
"coming-out party" was delayed un-
til last year. From all accounts it
was a brilliant affair; since at the
same time he introduced Brown to
the football world by upsetting Yale.
This might have been the end of
Yale had the spilling not occurred in
the "Bowl. (How's that one?)
The California folks were SO i'm
pressed with the showing of Pollard
and his teammates that they invited
the entire bunch across the continent
to Pasadena that they might engage
in battle against the formidable
Washington State aggregation on
Christmas, New Years or my birth
day, December 81, l forget which.

rity in Mexico
Ex-Champion Popular in Southern
Republic.

John Arthur (Jack) Johnson, ex-
heavy weight champion of the world,
has found haven in Mexico, free
from the race prejudice that proved
such bane to him in the United
States.
According to "Kid" Wilson, who
recently returned from Mexico, when
he fought Johnson twenty rounds to
a draw on September LIST, Jack is
living in great state, the owner of
six automobiles, and the idol of the
Mexican populace.
Jack is said to be giving exhibitions
in vaudeville, as well as performing
for motion picture corporations. He
now onws three theatres, and if he
should choose to turn his attention
to the fluctuating fortunes of Mex
lean politics, could easily acquire as
much influence as President Car
rama himself. His income is now
said to approximate five hundred
dollars per day, thus making ex-
tremely remote any possibility of the
much anticipated and often reported
hope of his enemies in the United
States of some day seeing him
"broke" and Inundated by poverty.
Mrs. Johnson is well, enjoying life
in the southern republic, and is as
devoted as ever to her heroic exile.

POLLARD GETS TO GOING.

AS was confided in the Sun last
month Pollard returned this season
to his togs with blood in his eye.
Just before leaving Chicago he had
me over home for breakfast. While
was increasing my weight from ITO
to 173 pounds, he told me what he
was going to do to those eastern bugs.
There is one thing l can always say
about Fritz, che tells the truth"
Browns record this year is a most
one-sided affair imaginable. In the
games they have staged this season,
their pluralities have been simply
huge mot Hughes). They carried
Connecticut by storm, taking &c
electoral votes from Yale. The AS
ISOLATED Press literally burned up the
wires with their glowing accounts of
Pollard's work in the Yale bowl. On
one occasion embracing the pig?skin
from punt he raced fifty-five yards
for touchdown; on another he in
tercepted a forward pass upon his
own three yard line; on several times
his gains were more than 25 yards.
With Pollard as a nucleus the Brown
attack has been developed into con-
centrated unity for which their OPP
ponents have found no solvent. To
be beaten by Brown proved to be
an epidemic affair. When a team
scheduled Brown, the prognosis was

bad from which none survived. Even
the one ambition of the Provident
school to beat Harvard was not de-
MED. Before this year the Crimson
had never tasted defeat at the hands
of Brown. but Harvard this time was
unable to discover any anti-Pollard
serum to immune themselves against
Brown. The result was that Brown
ended the season with a clean sheet
football career in a whirl of glory.
You may wonder where he gets it

breakfast at his house, I've known
the kind of steaks they've been feed

ATLANTA FACEDBY
PHONE BREAKDOWN

ATLANTA, Ca, June 3.-With both
sides to the controversy unyielding
in the telephone strike the city today
faced the possibility OF a general
breakdown in telephone service, or
slowed up to the extent Of being
practically valueless.
Following the waIkout yesterday
afternoon staged as a demonstration
against the alleged dismissal by the
Southern Bell Telephone Company, of
several operators because Of union
affiliations, force OF strikebreakers
sent in to give limited service for
telephones connected with the two
downtown exchanges was arranged
last night.
Strike leaders declared today that
the telephone company would be 'un-
able to secure strike breakers to re-
lieve those who remained on duty last
night. To this assertion. however,
telephone officials replied that they
had the situation well in hand.
Meanwhile radical elements Of At
Ianta's- labor unions were strongly ad-
vocating a general strike throughout
the city in sympathy with the oper-
ators. Conservative leaders, while dis
approving such talk, admit that the
situation is tense, but urge that any
action in this connection be delayed.
That the girls have the full sym
pathy of the city was indicated last
night when they paraded. Crowds
all along the line of march cheered
the ''hellos."
Today pickets were stationed at the
entrance Of each exchange building.
According to reports early today many
Of the girls who worked last night at
the main exchange Joined the strikers
as they came off duty this morning.
