affected more from the loss of
players than the backfield, for Ben

Henry Foster and Tom Mccoy,
the quarterbacks.
Two centers, Fred Thesmar and
Chuck Lewis. Bill Dietrick on end,
Sam Ward in guard, and Capt.
Blackford in tackle are the only
line men who expect to return, and
even these are not all sure they
will be back next session. But with
Jim Winston. Buck Weaver, Jack
Ryan, George Rainey and Doc
Cutchin. all good second-string men.
and the recruits from the first-year
team, the middle of the line ought
to be well filled.
Walter Brown. "Mulligan" Hol-
land and Alex Gates will probably
be back to try for flank positions,
and Coleman Walker Is counted on
to sub as center again. Little,
Gibson. Hubbard, Cameron, Kam-
iner, Taylor and Fly are backfield
men who Will have another chance
to show what they can do.

NAVY'S LADS
SHOW SKILL
IN EASY WIN
Western Maryland Goes Well
For Ten Minutes Until Con-
dition Begins to Tell.

A NNAPoLIS, Md, Dec. 13.-
u Superior physical condition
- and, on the whole, better
team work, enabled the Annapolis
Midshipmen to win from Western
Maryland College at basketball
here today by the decisive mar
gin of II to 10.
The upstate institution was rep.
resented by a heavy combination
that measured well with the middies.
Some rafting fast work was shown
in the first four minutes of play,
during which neither team was able
to effect a score. Then. however,
the visitors shot a flash of good team
work and Stanley and Davis Gagged
the ball in rather quick succession.
Jones soon followed with a field
goal for the Navy. After ten min.
utes of play the Western Maryland.
ers were leading. 4 to 2. Then the
middies, who had been showing
much inaccuracy in shooting for the
basket began to find themselves and
by clever team work forged to the
front, and the half ended with the
score % to 5 in their favor.
Some fast work also marked the
opening of the second half in which
the visitors scored first, but the
splendid playing of Schreibler, Har.
ris and Craig was too much for them
to cope with. Stanley and Davis
were the shining lights for the
Methodists, and Flanagan also per
formed well on the defensive. To

Mckee, veteran forward. to tie Navy

QUICK, brusque, commanding,
VI the head of an enormous
business. master of millions, Col
onel Ruppsrt went into baseball
because he loves the sport Of
baseball. He is a fan.
Huston, already a rich man
who had retired from active
business life, Joined him in the
enterprise for the same reason,
love of the game.
The story of the Rupert
Huston combination is one of
the real romances of sport. The
men, diametrically opposite In
many characteristics, in train
ing, in environment, had never
met until a week before they
became partners.
The Yankees, a bedrabbled
business prospect, run down at
the heel, were for sale. Rup-
pert had mentioned to Will
Fleischmann in a casual con-
versation that he would not
mind buying a baseball fran
chise if he could find a part
ner who would take the bother
of running it off his hands.
"I've got the man." said
Fleischmann.
He introduced Rupert to
Huston, who was finding solace
in his retirement from the con-
tracing business in following
the Giants from town to town
rs a rooter.
1T was a strange combination.
i Cynical baseball people
felt sorry for this pair of rich
innocents and said they would
be easy picking. Many rich
men have been ruined in base
ball.
Rupert and Huston could
never be accused of going into
baseball to make money. They
were both wealthy, both seek
ing surcease from business
cares rather than fresh respon-
sibilities. They bought nothing
save a franchise. The Yankees
had no grounds, no assets,
nothing but a lot of poor ball
players. Rupert and Huston
paid close to half a million
dollars for nothing.

NEW YORK, Dec. 13.-Col. T.
Az L. Huston's passing from
baseball is to be regretted.
Colonel Huston is a lovable
character, a man of great hu-

He has imagination, a rare quail

Will Fleischmann, furious

Colonel Rupert, New York

ASK OPEN SEASON ON BEAVER
Forest Service Men Claim Animals
Make Big Annual Expense.

Forest service men and rangers are
joining with the state highway depart
ment in Idaho asking for an open sea-
son on beaver in certain sections Of
the state, or at least permission to kill
where the busy animals are creating
expense and damage.
The forest service people are open
ing many roads along creeks and
passes in the forests and mountains of
the north part of the state. 1t is
necessary to build these trails along a
water level and frequently only a few
feet above the level of the streams
that flow down nearly all canyons.
Beavers build dams. raising the height
of the water, flooding and washing out
the trails. The department figures an
annual loss of more than $4,000 from
this source.
1t is useless to dynamite the dams,
for the beavers, working all night,
will have them reconstructed by
morning and the trails again flooded.
Permission to kill off few is the only
remedy suggested
