scholastic League season in the 1920
basketball campaign yesterday after
noon by rolling up total of 60 points
on Central High School. Bill Patton
led in, the Speedboys' attack. netting
p of his teams tallies, while Stevenson
was next with 16 points. which repre-
sented eight goals from field.
The West Philadelphians were out
in front from the outset. Ten points
were scored against the Mirrors before
the latter was credited with a count.
At half time the Speedboys led 42-19,
and in the second half. while the West
Phils were accommodating their record
making score, Central was able to in
crease its count to "a before the whistle
sounded, ending the one sided set-to.
Each of the West Philadelphians was
able to drop the "apple" into the net
from scrimmage during the game.
Elliott. who took the place of Young,
got a pair of two pointers after the
latter had made good half dozen shots
from field. Sweet tailed two field goals
and in addition played a swell game at
guard. holding Fischer, the other Cen
tral forward, to but single double
counter.
South Phils Win Again
In the other league contest. South
Philly High succeeded in keeping up
its winning stride by walloping Frank
ford High to the tune of 47-22. Leo
pold and Silver were the Southwark
heavy scorers in winning their seventh
consecutive victory. The former got
seven field goals and made five out of
eight free chances. Silver's net count
was an even dozen points, which rep
resented half a dozen goals from scrim-
mage.
Jeffrey, Frankford's guard, was the
shining factor of the defeated team. lie
played a brilliant floor game consider
ing the fact that his quintet was out
classed. and in addition made more
| two pointers than any of his pals
three, in all. Lehr's eye was poor in
| hcaving free chances, getting but six
out of sixteen attempts. He also made
pair of double pointers.

! in field goals, having netted total of
| 80 two pointers in seven games. Lehr

The ram OF the modern man-of-war
is the device of the swordtish Of the
Indo-Pacific ocean. The swordfish,s
upper jaw has a long beak or ram. by
means OF which 1t can pierce not only
fish, but the sides OF timber-buIlt
ships. Even the plants have fore
stalled human inventions. Nearly
everybody, perhaps. has wondered
why the stems of nearly all plants
and the trunks and branches Of trees
are round instead of any other shape
The existence OF tall plants and trees
depends largely on the wind force. And
a tree with a square trunk ann
branches would offer so much resist
ance TO the wind that IL would DO con-
tinualty having its branches snapped.
1t is for the same reason that en-.
gineers build tall chlmneys and piers
for bridges round In preference to any
other form.

Armless and Legless Austrian Soldier,
Line the Sidewalks Of Vienna In
Pathetic Misery.

Last, but not least. among the sights
OF suffering In Vienna are the war
cripples. the saddest and most touch
ing. but in one sense the most repel-
lent picture which the city offers.
The plain truth is that these Grip
pies have been abandoned TO their
fate. 1t Is true that the present gov
eminent has voted to grant ridicu-
lously inadequate pension to these
men; but up to the present It has re-
fused TO put the law into effect. In
place of that the authorities have hit
upon two measures for their relief
making them match vendors for the
state monopoly, and giving them IL
censes to beg upon the street,
This Is the actual fact While pub
lie begging is prohibited by law in
Vienna, war cripples are provided with
an official police permit allowing them
to appeal to the passerby for charity.
So you see in all the best avenues and
squares OF Vienna. particularly in
quarters frequented by foreigners. in
