FORM NEW STATE
OUT OF IDAHO
AND WASHINGTON

Spokane, Wash, Sept 3.-The latest
proposal for the formation of a new
state from parts of Idaho and Wash
ington seems in danger of going the
way of similar schemes that have pre-
coded it ever since before either of
the two states were admitted to the
union.
With the death of State Senator Il.
A. Hutchinson chief sponsor of the
new state plan in Washington, a pro-
posed meeting of northern, Idaho and
eastern Washington interests set for
carly September apparently has been
abandoned, and supporters of the
movement in northern Idaho have
been quoted as expressing a doubl
that the present is propitious time
for hroaching the proposal.
A commission authorized by the
last session Of the Idaho state legis-
iature to take steps looking toward
formation Of the new state has not
been appointed, and doubt has been
expressed that it ever will be named.
One new element recently injected
into the discussion is that of taxation.
The tax rate in Washington is much
higher than that of Idaho, L. is point
cd out, and fears have been voiced
that this would deter Idaho taxpayers
from favoring the proposal at this
time.

n. Y. y. Basketball
[ cam Ready for
Columbia Contest

New York University's basketball
team will be severely tested tomorrow
night when it clashes with it's old rival.
Columbia, at the latters gymnasium.
This is an annual affair between these
two colleges, and as great rivalry ex-
lists good game is on tap.
Coach Ed Thorpe put his charges
through stiff scrimmage against the
scrubs yesterday in the Violet gym.
This is the first workout since the
Yale game. The Violet mentor and the
teams followers are we'll satisfied with
the showing that it made against Yale
last Friday.
The varsity outplayed Old Eli from
every standpoint of the game. It's
passing completely hewildered its op-
ponents, and were it not for the fact
that so many foul shots we're missed
the Violet machine probably would
have run up 40 points
The Violet will start the same line
up that it has presented in both games.
This is Goeller and Hatterer as for
wards, Bierce at center and Bates and
Tourrock as guards. Columbia will
probably use the same team that lost
to Rutgers last Saturday night.

Seeded Draw
Ruling Meets
Much Favor
Decision of Tennis Commit
tee Not Surprising After
s'Blind" Draw Fiascos

The meeting Of the executive commit
tee of the United States Lawn Tennis
Association last Saturday. Indicated
that constructive legislation has been
accomplished since the last annual
meeting of the association. The new
ruling MS to what an amateur player
can and csnnot do In tho way OF earn
ing a living seems to be move In the
right direction.
Tho fact that last season saw moro
than one player Of national promi-
nenco doubling in brass" Immediately
after the finish of match was not q
wholesome one, in the opinion Of many
followers Of the game, who believe that
such things only tend to lower the high
standing of the sport and should not be
countenanced.
The action Of player who writes for
magazine, or who publishes books on
the game, Is held to be in different
category, owing to Its possible con-
structive character.
The prevailing sentiment among play
ers and followers Of tennis in favor Of
the Seeded" draw for important tour
naments was not surprising, in view of
the near-hascos that resulted last sea-
son in both the mems and women's ma
tional championship tournaments as
a result Of the blind" draw.
The changes in the assignment Of the
big tournaments for 1922 were very
few, as compared with last year, the
West Side again gaining the chief plum
when the challenge round matches for
the Davis Cup were awarded to the
Forest Hills club. Philadelphia takes
charge of the mems national singles
again, with the Germantown Cricket
Club acting as host, while the women's s
national event goes again to the West
Side Tennis Club.
The Germantown Cricket Club is
surely entitled to the mems national
tourney for another year at least. The
erection of stands, the special prepa-
ration of the courts and the many
otner outlays that are connected with
the holding of q big event such as
this ell form a considerable financial
strain that cannot be offset by one
holding of the tournament. 1t requires
at least two years for club to come
out even or better.
