of Alexandria starts off Sunday night
at the residence of President Sylves-
ter A. Breen, 1922 King street, Alex

great ball to beat us. All teams who
arrange games are sure to receive
excellent treatment at all times"

WESTERN PLAYS POORLY

Worst Form of Season.

Western High School basketers ad-
nit today that they must pick up con-
siderably over yesterdays perform
ance II they expect to be counted in
the running for the scholastic
championship.
While the Red and White lads won
over Business by 80 to % they showed
little to encourage them on defense.
In shooting from the floor and in gem
eraI team play the Westerners failed
to impress themselves or their fol-
lowers.
The Business lads surprised the
westerners by their ability in floor
play and in shooting. Peterson and
Ferber had field days. That the
Stenogs failed to win is psrtly due
to their inability to get going in the
second quarter. They finished up the
first period in the van.
Western appeared to lack incentive.
Having beaten the Stenographers
handily in the first game and allow
ing them but nine points they looked
as though they could go the route
with much to spare. Business com

The Hatchetites had little 'or no
breaks in basket shooting. The floor
play of the teams was about even and
the Hatchetites by acutal count got
more shots at the ring than the
that the Btooklanders got cracks at
the basket they made higher per-
centage and, in consequence won.
George Washington was distinctly
'off tho baskets" The Brooklanders
too wefc not up to their usual form
On free tossing the Hatchetites got
but six out Of seventeen.
In the first half Catholic University

FAMILY ITEMS IN
DANGER

Boxing just now is occupying
a prominent social position and
the rank and file of the boxing
fans are becoming alarmed
that the pugilists will become
too "up-stage" to perform be-

variety Of gatherings.
There is also danger that the
news of the pugs may be lifted
from its place among the ordi-

today that the New Yorkers were
trading his players again for him.
He says that he has been a target for
THESE dreamy traders and sellers for
more than a year and that the time
has come to.end 1t all.

most of them. I can make a strong
guess, too, as to how the alleged in
formation is handed out" says Presi-
dent Griffith.

right home. This simply must be
ended"
President Griffith is entirely cor
rect in his stand He seldom, il ever,
discusses a trade until it is ended.
'The trouble with those fellows
over in New York. "said Griff today,
ais that they talk instead of trade.
There is absolutely nothing new in
this Baker matter. 1 can say no
more, except to. deny emphatically
this latest yarn bringing Pipp, Bodie,
and Quinn here"
Some day we'll hear how President
Griffith is planning to trade Walter
Johnson, Pat Charity, and Stanley
Harris for Hans Wagner. Cy Young,
and Johnny King.
RING SIGNS CONTRACT.
Jimmy Ring, the Cincinnati pitcher
traded with Greasy Neale to the Phil
lies for Eppa Rixey, has signed his
contract with Bill Donovan's club.
Ring says he is satisfied with the deal
sending him to Philadelphia. On the
other hand, Neale is holding out.
II am not making any yell for more
money" says Neale. "But I am a
left-handed hitter, and II I have to
play half the season in the Phillies'
park, my batting average is sure to
suffer. All / can see is flock of
white shirts out in the field, and I'll
just be about done IL I have to go to
the Phillies.

traded to some other club in the

course, I'll have to play in Philsdel-

Later on they were enclosed in a
designated section within the

dulge in pastoral occupations be-
cause Of an unfounded prejudice.
The result was they became mer-
chants and money lenders.
When you stop to think that
there are less than thirteen mil
lion Jews in the world and then
talk about their dominating and
controlling the world, it is the
rankest kind of nonsense and it
is simply the work Of those who
are robbing the people and blind
ing the eyes Of the public to the
true facts.
All that is best in science, liter
ature and art we owe to the jew
ish race and l, for one, have COM
pletely changed my early opinion

the question and have studied the
financial plan throughout the diff
ferent centuries. I have studied
the rise and fall Of the different
empires that have come and gone
prior to our time and it was not
the Jewish banker or the Jewish
money lender that has wrecked
and caused the downfall Of these
empires; it is simply the greed
and selfishness Of human nature.
The history Of all the nations has
been the same. They had their pc
Rod Of growth, their period Of
ripeness, their period Of decay and
then downfall. And always their
downfall has been caused because
Of the wealth Of the people was
in the hands of less than two per
cent Of their citizens.
II you will read the history Of
the Jewish race as have read it
you will learn that for thousands
Of years they were pastoral peo-
pie and were not allowed to have
homes or live in the cities; they
were kept outside Of the walls.
