Todoy's Angle In
Sports

From New York comes the report
that Babe Ruth is to play first base
for the Yankees.
To my way of thinking that is
pure bunk"
In the first place 1 can see no
reason why a change from Wally
Pipp should be desired He is a
first baseman of major league
caliber.
For years they have been re-
placing Wally Pipp at first. Each
spring, however, finds him back on
the job as the regular first base
man.
Pipp is a mighty fine fielder, an
excellent target for the rest of the
infeld to throw at. Pipp has a nice
| style at the plate, and it always
has been surprising TO me that he
didn't finish with higher batting
average.
Why, then, shift Ruth to first
base, when the position is being
most acceptably filled by Pipp?
In the second place it is my opin-
ion that shifting Ruth TO first would
rob him of much Of his value to the
club.
Ruth is never going to be the Hal
Chase type of first baseman. Ruth,
always anxious to get results,
would perhaps use brute force in
making plays at first that would
often result in serious injury.
l recall one game in which he
played first base for Boston. He
really saved the game by blocking
first bame, and allowing the runner
to slide into his leg instead of the
bag. He was badly cut as a result
and was out for about ten games. 1t
was very costly experience
Ruth's place is in the outfield.
The big fellow has really developed
into very fine fielder. If he would
use some care as to his diet, it
would be very easy matter for him
to reduce at least 20 pounds. A loss
of that much weight would make
him much improved ball PLAYER
in all departments.

Ann Arbor, Mich, Jan 24-Com-

RECORD CROWD
TO SEE RELAYS

Urbana, Ill, Jan. 24-That the
fifth annual Illini relay carnival
will smash all previous records in
attendance is forecast by the Uni
versity of Illinois officials from the
fact that already % institutions
have placed this event upon their
schedules and have notified Man.
ager John Gibson of their inten-
tons of being present.
The profits of the classic, which
is the only one of its kind in the
country, will again be pro-rated
among the visiting teams in direct
proportion to the number of ath-
letes in actual competition and the
distance travelled Last season they
amounted to $1,99936 and were
prO-rated among 81 teams, Michi-
gan receiving the most, which was
S235.62 for bringing Is athletes 374
miles. The University of Kansas
received the next highest, which
was $I9173.
A larger seating capacity will he
constructed this year and all uni
versity social functions will be
tabooed, so record crowd March
should swell the amount to be
pro-rated to at least double that of
last year. The University of Penn
sylvania team would not accent
any of the money offered for bring
ing the winning one mile reIav
quartet here last year because of
the fact that Pennsylvania does not
pro-rate the profits of the Penn
relays.
Word has been received here from
Avery Brundage, former Illini star
athlete and holder of the national
A. A. u. all around championship
for two years, stating that he will
accept the position of referee of the
all-arcund championship events.
For the last two years this event
was won by Brutis Hamilton of

CUMMINGS AND
OMAHA BOY IN
FAST WORKOUT
Winds Up Afternoon With Fast
Sparring Session Against
Mike Dundee.
BY J. L. HUGHES.

Interest of tri-city boxing fans
in Morrie Schlaifer. Omaha's coz
tender for Jack Britton's crown.
aroused by advance notices OF his
prowess, was sustained yesterday
afternoon when the Nebraskan
stepped two rounds with George
Cummings at Smiths gymnasium,
on Brady street, davenport.
A large crowd was on hand to
get first glimpse of the boy who
is said to pack one of the healthi-
est but at the same time deadly,
punches manipulated by young
ster in a long time. There was some
speculation as to the truth of the
claims that have been made in his
behalf but this was quickly dissi-
pated by the actual display of
gloves.
Schlaifer seems to be firm be-
lever in getting the most out of
his training. He began smuggling
with Cummings at the start ami
George returned the onslaught I'M
dismayed During the entire time
consumed by two rounds. the pair
stood toe to toe and battered at
each other merrily. Then by way
of sharpening up his judgment OF
distance and shaking the travel
kinks from his legs, Morrie went
through a round with Mike Dundee.
This showed the Omaha boy to pos
sess a degree of cleverness as well
as smuggling ability.
To begin the afternoon, Schlaif-
er took picks on the sandbag for
four sessions and then shadow box
ed three rounds. Many expressions
of approval were voiced by the
spectators Consensus was he is a
bonecrusher for fair.
Schlaifer was scheduled to work
out at Smiths again today bat
tomorrow and Thursday, it is said
he will disport himself at the arm

climb through the ropes to meet

Chicago welter.

tomorrow afternoon and the only
chances fans will have to size him

HOPES BRIGHT
FOR ISLANDERS
IN NEXT CAME
Plan for Fast Battle With Moline
Friday ight-DOpe FaTOrS
Rock Island.
BY ART WILLIAMS.

Basketball hopes at Rock Island
high are up since the defeats ad-
ministered to Spring Valley and
LaSalle-Peru high school aggrega-
tions Friday and Saturday nights
OF last week.
The lads forgot the defeats hand
ed out by Davenport and LaSalle-
Peru earlier in the season, stepped
out and brought home the bacon
from two hard fought games. The
victory al LaSalIe is a credit to the
Crimson and Gold tossers especi-
ally. Shelter played sensational
games, and a better man could not
have been chosen to lead the local
squad. in the opinion of fans.
Throughout the entire sessions he
worked at top speed and was easily
one of the most aggressive players.
With Alyine at stationary guard
the Islanders have fine protection
against opponents piling up many
counts, especially from close range
Alvine is cool headed in action and
like a stone wall when it comes to
holding his ground. Edwards es-
tablished a record in foul shooting
at LaSalle and should prove valua-
BILE to the home squad if he can
keep to this standard
Friday night the Islanders will
meet Moline at Rock Island This
game. true to tradition. will be a
hot one and the Islanders are not
feeling oyer-confident. The Swedes
were victims of a bad lacing at the
hands of Davenport and dope is
with the Islanders to take this
game with not too hard an effort.
Davenport pulled surprise when
it defeated the SwedeS Is to +, and
the Islanders are practicing this
week to acquire form that will
make them able to do the same
thing to the Plow boys. Moline
started to slip down grade when it
went On a two days trip to Gales
burg and Peoria and returned with
two decisive defeats.
The local team has been showing
signs of improvement since the
first two defeats of the season by
Davenport and LaSalle-Peru. AL
though the quintet was crippled by
the loss of Hall, it has developed
fast floor work and ability to shoot
baskets from all points of the floor.
The team is one of the lightest in
the community this year and will
have to depend on speed and ac-
curacy to win its games. The Is
landers expect to give Moline a fast
whirl and gain back the honors lost
last fall in football.

In one of the games of the series.
these two great players turned in
the best bit of second play l have

work of both players highly. Col

Flo Ziegfeld says he is through
with the theatre.
Recently he tied a can on one of
his wealthy chorus girls.
The young lady refused to be
fired. She so reported to the other
members of the cast.
Mr.. Ziegfeld was instructed to
put the lady back in the chorus, or
there you'd be no "Follies" that
evening.
Since Flo. as they call him in
theatrical circles. has lot of money
tied up in the Follies, and desired
to finish the season, he put the
young lady back in the chorus.
Since Mr. Ziegfeld owns the Fol
lies, he wasn't pleased over the
outcome.
He said he was through forever
with the stage al the close of the
present season. He also made
public announcements that he was
in the field for major league fran
Chise.

play and succeeded; and Harris
making the same play, failed.
This was the play. There was a
fast runner on first. The batter hit
a grounder to Collins. He got the
ball directly ahead of the runner
going to second He forced him back
in the direction of first, then cut the
ball to the first baseman, retiring
the batter
The runner. caught between first
and second. Immediately dashed for
second, a throw from the first base
man retiring him at that base. It
was really the only way possible 10
get a double play because of the
speed of both runners.
A little later the same play came
up with Harris. He tried TO make
the play as did Collins, but allowed
the runner to over play him. The
batter reached first in safety. and
in the run up some one dropped the
ball and the runner on first also
reached second in safety.
The next day, sitting on the
Washington bench. Harris brought
up the play. He said it was the
hardest play in baseball for him to
make, as it was difficult for him to
decide just when he should make
the throw to first, after having
forced the other runner back in
the direction of first
Collins never fails to get one
man, said Harris, and usually ne
gets both. However, I'll get that
play down pat one Of these days.
The following week l saw Harris
make the play perfectly twice, each
time getting a double play. Harris
can think.
