Columbia Schedules
For Three Indoor
Sports Announced

Indoor sport schedules for three
Columbia athletic teams were an
nounced yesterday by lowering Tyson,
graduate manager of athletics. The
schedules are complete for swimming,
basketball and wrestling, the only
snorts for which formal lists OF games
viii be arranged this year. In
the past Columbia has had teams in
fencing and handball, and several
wears back was represented IN gym
nastics. but although there Will be
teams in the two first named sports
neither will have regular schedules,
and it is not likely there Will be any
activity at all in gymnastics.
In the absence of Professor James
f. Murray, fencing instructor on
Morningside Heights for many years,
there has been delay in creating inter-
est in fencing and as yet no coach
has been obtained. although efforts
are being made to obtain the services
of the instructor at the New ork
Athletic Club 1t is not likely that
81 team will be formed for intercol-
legiate matches, although the Blue
and White will probably enter the
Manrique Cup competition.
The three sports in winch Columbia
will carry full schedules nave oce''
organized on u basis approXlmating
that which prevailed in the days be.
fore the war. Only in swimming and
water polo has it been necessary to
engage temporary coach, because OF
the absence in war service of Ed
war T. Kennedy, the regular coach.
The full schedule of indoor com
petitions for the second term, which
begins this week, is as follows:

pack into its own at the University
Heights institution and has been vel
coined with the same enthusiasm as of
old.
Prospects at the outset for a good
i've were rather gloomy. None of last
years veterans was expected to return
and a suitable coach was unobtainabie.
However. the outlook frightened con-
sderably when three of last seasons
men, including Captain Egan, unex
pectedly came back to college. Egan
was appointed coach of the team.
Misfortune nevertheless insisted on
following the trail of the team. The
regular practise sessions had hardly
progressed week when Maxwell
Baker, the veteran centre of two sea-
sons, was forced to leave college. His
loss was greatly felt by The squad as
his experience and knowledge of the
game was large factor in the develop
ing of practically green aggregation.
Another severe setback befell the New
York team when Delaney. Bakers sue
cessor, was overtaken with q severe at
tack of grip en- the New England trip,
two weeks ago.
Despite oil these handicaps, the VIC
let five has made a good showing. Of
six games played to date the local team
has been successful in three. Although
outweighed by from ten to fifteen
pounds to the man in every contest, the
New York men have overcome thu :
handicap bv lightning fast passing and
perfect team work. They are without
doubt the lightest combination in inter
collegiate basketball.
The opening game of the season
was a defeat at the hands of the
powerful Rutgers five. on January II
The following week the Violet took
it's annual New England trip and re-
turned with a brace of victories in as
many days The first victim was
Wesleyan College. This contest re
quired two extra periods of five
minutes each. before the New Workers
could cage the deciding shots. The
score was AZ to 81.
Amherst was taken into camp OIL
the next day in another close battle
by 40 to SO tally. This game showed
the local quintet at it's best. Uniol
College was the next team to try con
illusions with the University Heights
contigtnt, but met with the usua
results. In this contest. the up-stat,
five led at the end of the first half b.
a 13 to 8 score. Matters changed in thu

BolsIseviki Raid
Trot Studs i'm Russia

Most of the trotting studs in Russia
have been conhscated by the Boil
sheviki and the many noted American
stations in them sold for the prices
and purposes Of the common utility
horses. according to "The London Live
Stock Journal
General H., 2:o4a4, and Willy, 2:o5,
two stations that won memorable
races at the Empire track on the same
day during the Grand Circuit meeting
there in 1910, are reported to be among
those which shared this fate. Willy,
then owned by Louis W. Winans Of
Brighton, England, and valued at $25,-
900, was sold by the Bolshevists for 81,
the English paper says, while General
H., equally valuable, went for about
the same price.

McAllister Advances
In Tennis Tourney

Samuel Robert McAllister, captain
of the 7th Regiment Tennis Club team.
advanced step nearer the regimental
championship yesterday by defeating
William Dixon Cunningham, at 60
7--9. 6-3, gaining a bracket in the
semi-inal round.
Cunningham's speedy hitting and
spectacular smashing were not good
enough TO win against the abiding
steadiness of Cunningham. who kept
shooting his deep court drives down
the side lines and across the court.
Occasionally the winner baffled his
young opponent by beautifully timed
Jobs that landed near the base line as
Cunningham had started for the net.

SEEMINGLY IMMUNE TO PAIN !
Australian AboriginaIs Suffer Little
Inconvenience From Even the
Most Severe Injuries.

The sight of their own blood will
send Australian aboriginals into hys-
terics, writes a correspondent in the
Australian Bulletin, but / am con-
WINGED they feel little or no pain from
even the severest injury. On one oc-
casiOn, when dragging a young girl
from a shark that had her foot in its
Jaws, she looked up and remarked
casually, Mine tink it dat shark been
TAX il mine foot - The sight of the
blood upset her for while; but a
few hours later she was playing
euchre with the rest of the camp. The
wonder is that wounded blacks don't
more often bleed TO death, for they
take no special means 10 prevent It.
The most approved method used to be
to cover the wound thickly with fine
mangrOve ash, and over that n layer
of damp clay, which was not removed
for several days. / never saw them
wash a wound, their theory being that
the blood heals the wound. In later
years they all learned to go to a doe
tor when injured, but thirty or forty
years ago one saw dreadful defOrmi-
ties resulting from accidents and
fights. On Fraser's island in the sew
entities there was a man whose leg had
been broken in two places below the
knee. Neither fracture had knitted,
and he was a most grotesque object
to meet. The doctors wanted 10 mend
him. but he kept out of the way. An
other case was an old woman whose
arm had been broken between the
wrist and elbow She used TO pry
the bones one against the other, and
she could give a terrible blow with the
loose hand.
