 ary 28.

Buffalo, N. Y, Feb. 11.-By land, water and air, bowlers of the continent will come to the international tourna- nent of the American Congress, which opens at the Broadway Auditorium on February 28 and continues through the month of March, There is increasing prospect of record entry.
 The entry from Tampico, Mexico, has been received, with the information that the team will leave there on March Is, make the trip to Houston, Tex, by air service, thereby saving 36 hours, and proceed thence to St. Louis. The Mex ico team will play match games in St. Louis, Chicago, Cleveland and Buffalo, en route to the big tournament. This means trip of 7,0OO miles for this team. by air, water and rail-
 Entries to the tournament will not close until February 10, and are being received at the local headquarters, 5O1 White Building, Buffalo, where John T. Smith, the A.. B. C. president, and James A. Lockie, the Buffalo secre- tary, hold forth, and also at the national Headquarters, A. L. Langtry, secretary, 175 Second street, Milwaukee.
 The announcement that the Trunk Line Association, the Central Passenger Association and the Western Passenger Association have finally granted the re- duced railroad rate of one fare and one-ha1f for the round trip has been received with great qualification throughout the country
 The reduced fare means that the entry will be increased materially, and 1t will also mean that a saving of from $5O,OOO to $6O,OOO has been made for bowlers of the A. B. C. through the ef- # and Judge Howard, of Chicago, who worked together Ill this matter and made a success of their campaign for reduced rates.
 Jimmy Smith is out of the hospital after siege of six weeks and 1t is pos sible that he will bowl at Buffalo on March 20, which is the date picked for his team, although he Is off form, and 1t will take quite a lot of training to get him in form again for a strenuous campaign on the drives.
 The St. Francis Hotel team, which recently bowled 3,264 i'll three games i'll the St. Paul City league, has entered the tournament. Its first game was 1902, second 1,O6o and third 1,123, which shows considerable class. This team Is one of the greatest in the coun- try and consists of Matek Van Hooven, Hark1nS, Metcalte, Mitchell, ana Gap tain Casper Hellhake.
 A fine showing of the Buffalo bow1ers is looked for, the missionary work by the home town officials having resulted in greatly inspired interest, with the prospect that every industrial plant and business association worth while will have in its team, not to speak of the many bowling clubs and alleys which will be present in their fullest strength.

YANKEES TO HAVE $2,OOO,OOO FIELD
 SEATING 75,OOO

New York, Feb. 11.-Purchaes of a site for grounds for the New York American League Baseball Club on which will be erected two million dol lar stadium to seat 75,OOO fans, was announced by Col. Jacob Ruppert and T. L. Huston, owners of the club.
 The plot of ground, covering 10 acres and located just across the Harlem river from the Polo Grounds the home of the National league club, was pur- chased from the William Waldorf Astor estate. Although located in the Bronx, quite a distance from the business cen ter of the city, the stadium will be easily accessible through virtually all rapid official name of the park has not yet been decided upon.
 Plans drawn by firm of architects in Cleveland, Ohio, call for a structure similar i'll design to the Yale Bowl at New Haven. The building at first, how ever, will not carry out the plans com p1etely. Colonel Ruppert said The club intends to build only three sides of the structure and erect temporary bleachers at the end farthest from the home plate This structure and b1eachers will pro- vide for 55,000.
 The closing of one street is required to complete the plans, but as all the adjacent property is owned by the Astor estate it is believed that no objections will be made.
 "You may say," said Colonel Rup- pert, that we shall begin building just as soon as materials come down to reasonable price"
 He explained that the Yankees have lease on the Polo Grounds until the end of the 1922 season. so that they will have place to play until 1922, if the new structure is not completed before

DIR. J. A. NAISMlTH, BASKETBALL PARENT
 RECEIVES HONORS

Lawrence, Kan, Feb. 11.-The honor paid to Dr. James A. Naismith by the National Intercollegiate Athletic Asso- ciation of America-life membership on the basketball rules committee-comes to him 30 years after he invented the game of basketball. Doctor Naismith IS head of the department of physical edu- cation at the University of Kansas.
 Basketball was the result of a de- liberate attempt to evolve game suit able for men to play indoors. In 1891, Doctor Naismith was in charge of a gymnasium class at the Springfield, Mass, Y. M. C. A., then an instructor college for athletes and association men, The men enrolled in the class were football, baseball and track athletes and became weary of the inside work con- sisting of boxing, wrestling and swim ming.
 Footba1, lacrosse, hockey, soccer and other games, the doctor concluded, were too rough to be played indoors. He de- cided to work out his new game with rugby as basis eliminating the fea- lures. which made it extremely rough. Tack1ing and kicking, he found on an- a1ysis, were at the root of the evil. He eliminated tackling by allowing the player to run when he does not have the ball. and by having the ball passed with hands only, he did away with kicking. The team consisted of nine men at first. The number was reduced to seven and later to five.
 Doctor Naismith was born in Can ada He is a graduate of McGil1 Uni versity and also of the Gross Medical School. He came to the University of Kansas as associate professor of phy- sica1 education i'll 1898, becoming full professor in 1908. During the war he served as director of social hygiene for the American expeditionary force.

Prohibition Caused
 Suffering Ticker
 :. Reports of Games

The worlds series of 1920 "was not like 1t used. to be" and prob ably never will be again. The gambling scandal isn't to blame. It's prohibition.
 More exciting than sitting in the grandstand was standing about the baseball ticker in the corner saloon in the old days. The paper tape which jerked its way from under the glass cage was like a gradually unro1ling scroll of fate. Consider, for in stance, the climax of the Giants Red Sox battle of 1912.
 "Gardner flies to Snodgrass," announced the ticker.
 Then the machine stopped.
 The Giant rooters lined up at the bar by way of celebrating the thWarted Red Sox rally.
 Then tick-tick-tick-tick.
 The machine had started again. Every one crowded about the tape. Slowly the latest news from Boston issued forth.
 "Snodgrass"-
 The mechanism paused. Then the rest of the message burst forth:
 -"dropped the ball."
 It was the most tragic moment in the history of New York fans.

OF course 1t is trifie far-fetched
when the healer brings 4 dead babe
back to life and restores sight to a
man who has been blind since child

take such parts as an attempt to in
vest the healer with supernatural
power. 1t is clear. however. that the

intend to give such an impression
His message was that those who have
faith in God will refuse to believe
Him capable of inflicting suffering on
His people, and that this faith. il
