Local Wabash ROOters
Finally Forced to Take
the Alley Route for Day

II was the turn OF local Wabash Col
lege followers 10 take the alley route to-
day.
indianapolis supporters Of the Scarlet
have had a great time handing out the
W. k "razz" to followers Of rival StAte
schools, but today the tables were
turned. Followers OF Indiana. Purdue,
De PAW, Butler Notre Dame and other
State institutions all have had to take
the alley route at different periods dur
M the present basket ball season and
they had about given up hope OF gettin z
the opportunity Of kicking back at the
Wabash differentiation 1t happened.
The worm finally turned when the Wa
bash five ran into an upset at State
Normal last night and finished on the
short end Of the score. Ii apparently
was the Cr0wning upset of the present
basket ball season, and there have been
many.
Now. Wabash followers know how
Purdue roOters felt after the Earlham
and Michigan games; how Indiana fans
felt after the Purdue game; how Butler
men felt after the second Indiana Dental
game, and how NOtre Dame supporters
felt after the Wabash and De Pauw
clashes.
Everything that goes up must come
down or something. to that effect. At
any rate the upsets have been State wide.
The Wabash upset came after the Scar
let had knocked Off everything met In
the collegiate ranks, including Purdue
De PAW Notre Dame, Earlham and even
the team that nosed it out last night.
However Scarlet supporters refuse 70
take last nights defeat as a serious blow
and they will be out backing up
Vaughau's machine to continue the fight
for the State title.

Judge Lands VIII
Earn Every Cent He
Gets as Ball Pilot
Some Say Noted JUrist WtLL
Haze Hands Full Handling
MQgndteS.

NEW YORK, Feb. fudge lands Is
getting $4,000 year for steering base
balls craft.
He has a seven-year contract With
the thrift necessary to live within the
Judge, the economic sharps figure he
should come out OF 1t with close to
$297, 800.
Pessimists who still scent last Octo
bers odor have two comments to make
on the Judge and his future in baseball.
"He won't last more than year. he
too big a man to be bothered with the
magnates, even for a fortune some say
IF he lasts seven years. he'll earn
every cent he gets" the others predict,
No one is questioning the judges abil-
ity to handle such a complex proposition,
but some are doubtful of his patience.
No one has accused the barrister OF
being mercenary, because he trtmmed
down the original offer Of $4,000 ana
the market price for executive brains OF
his type is much higher In commeFclal
or industrial circles.
Judge Lands is absolutely fearless ms
his record on the bench shows and fur
thermore he is not afraid of his ne"
Job.
Some Of the pesky hurdles that he will
have to 60 over were described in his
dealing during the recent joint league
meetings In Chicago.
When Judge Lands was offered the
position as baseball commissioner he was
assured to q free rein In handling all
diamond affairs In his own words. they
told the world" that he was to be SUI
preme.
He signed the contract on this under
standing.
Yet, the first thing the magnates try
TO do Is to curtail his power and make
him q mere tool by changing a word ia
the original agreement.
Instead Of permitting him to "act''
against ell offenders. the generous mag
mates changed II to allow him merely to
recommend action.
The judge was the FIRST one to detect
the alteration and he gave the moguls
fifteen minutes to strike out the word
or get a new commissioner
1t has not been clearly established who
recommended the "trihing" change in the
agreement, but the National League rep
resentatives refuse to take the credit
Ban Johnson Is accused Of the attempt
but no official finger has been pointed
ut him.
Perhaps this bold assertion Of author
tty will intimidate the msRnates and they
may remain in the background and let
Judge lands run the organization.

LONG SHOOTING

Normal Hits From Distance to

This was the first defeat of the seaSG n
for the Scarlet in collegiate play, and the
game probably will go down as one OF
the greatest upsets of the season. WABASH
previously had trimmed Normal In a
game at Charlottesville.
Coach Vaughan's Wabash team was
favored to win in walk from the NOT
maliteS, who have been easy plcklngs Tor
most of the secondary teams In the St9t'
this year, but in this battle the Scarlet
athletes faced a vastly different sort or
, attack than that OF the strong teams they
have been conquering all season ami
when they did awaken to the tact that
they were facing defeat, It was too late
for them to protect themselves.
Long shots the kind ut which the Nor

Giants The teachers did not figure on
hrea king through the defense Of the vlsi-
tors, but opened the game with bonn
bardment of the basket from the distance
range. In the first half the teams traded
tricks on even terms, the count being
tied at 19-all at the rest period.
Wabash displayed a better floor game
IN the opening half, but the smart guard
ing Of COnoyer and Glenn caused the Wis
itors to lose several chances from under
the basket
In the second period, the uncanny dio-
lance shooting Of the Teachers seemed to
get on the nerves of the Scarlet-clads
and as play progressed they lost the
punch In both defensive and offensive
play. Normal scored another nineteen
polnts~fn this period, while the Wabash
five fell six points behind Its nrst-half
total. Coach Vaughan shifted his Wa
bash lineup several times IN the second
period in an effort to check the onslaught
of the NOrmals, but his efforts failed to
get results.
The individual stars Of the contest
