Schools have promising talent in their
line ups, and should be two of the
foremost contenders in the s>holastic
conference.
The city Y has an abundance of
good talent. both in the developing
stage and stars of the game in the
past lears. With the array of men
that Coach Prindlc has at his COM
mand, the Y five seems to be the dark
horse in the group of city hoopsters.
st. Patricks are ont with strong
line up this year altho they were de-
teated i'll their first game of the sea-
son, and many predict that the IRISH
men will be one of the hardest basket
GERS to score win on after they get
into regular VlIying condition.
Other teams will make their ap-
pearances in the near future. the f.
Pluribus Unum club is organizing a
basket ball team it is understood, and

ANNUAL big TEN"
TRACK MEET IN JUNE

Iowa City. Iowa, Dec. es-When the
Big Ten" Is held on Iowa Field next
June ), u will be the second time in
seven years that the event has not
taken place in Chicago. Michigan en-
tcrtained the conference in 1920. Until
Iowa was awarded the 1872 meet the
Hawkeycs had never been host to the
track teams OF the Western Confer
cnce.
Plans and preparations for entertain
ing more than 200 athletes and 5000
spectators are already well under way.
since Iowa has for some months looked
forward to inviting the conference TO
co &c to Iowa city next spring.
The Hawkcyes Field has a quarter
mile running track. a e2o-yard straight
away. regulation pits for jumping and
raultinE. and large open space for
the wciEht-throwing events. The en-
tire running track was rebuilt and re-
curbed last spring. After the cinders
have settled in place over the winter
and the track has once moro been
icyeicd and rolled IL is believed that
tho runners competing will perform on
n fast path that will encourage record
time.
Tho program of preparation likewise
includes some improvements on the
jumping and vaulting pits so that tho
beds i'm which the participants alight
will be in better shape. Iowa athletic
authorities anticipate having all ar
rangements first class. especially since
this is the first time Iowa has enter
tsined tho meet and the Hawkcyes
want to make good on their contract.
Special interest In the meet obtains
at Iowa because OF the renewed
Strength in track shown by the Hawk
eyes since the advent of George T.
Bresnahan as track coach. Last year
Iowa placed third In the national in
tercollogtate meet at Chicago and fifth
in the conference meet, totaling more
points than have been scored by the
Old Gold in meets of such sanding for
years.
The best performers from the 1891
track squad win be back next spring.
not to mention few stars discovered
among last seasons freshmen. and 1T IS
expected that Iowa will again make
a good showing in competition with
the best performers in the country.

DRAMATIC INCIDENT
BURIAL OF UNKNOWN

Romc.-A dramatic incident OF the
funeral OF the Unknown Warrior in
Rome has just become known. On the
last night when the coffin was ex-
posed In the grand church of Santa
Maria dcgli Angel. poor old woman
who had come from Venice appeared at
the church and passionately implored
those IN command to allow her to see
the form within the coffin because. she
declared. her dead solder son had ap-
peared to her in vision and had as
surcd hcr that his was tho body buried
in the sacred receptacle.
F'linEing herself on hcr knees she
cried. ! implore you for the love of the
Madonna. let mo stay hero all night.
and then when all the people have
gone away. you will surely lei me
look Just once again on my owp boy"
She was kindly and tenderly told
that her desire was impossible { full
fillment and it was with great diff
Guilty that she was persuaded to leave
the church.
IT will perhaps be comfort to tho
poor. old woman that she will GER
tainly believe to her dying day that
her boy rests in the great monument
of the Italian nation.

REB RUSSELL BECOMES STAR
OUTFIELDER

Reb Russell who few years ago
was the pitching star of the White
Sox tvirling staff, has become one of
the star hitters and outtielders for
Minneapolis in the American Asso-
citation.
With the Millcrs last year the big
left handed pitcher took the mound
but on five occasions during the sea
son. and abondlng the short lived
Term of the general rup of pitchers
fitted himself for the route that would
keep him in the game for longer
time. Russell pitched one full game
and won it. the other four resulted IN
victories but Russell took the rubber
as either a relief or rescue man.
In the individual batting averages
of the American Association, Russell
is fourth from the top with an aver
age of .36S, which shows the SOUTH
paw was at bat $40 times during JAG
games for 2O2 hits. His fielding av-
erace Is .944 showing 245 put outs
with 81 assists in the outSeld and 10
errors charged against him on the
272 chances accepted.
The big Texan bats left handed and
is one of the most dangerous clouters
in the American league. especially has
this been true during the past season
in the games that Russell has broken
IN by his long and timely swats.
