GOODS ARE BLAMED
FOR PURPLE SLUMP
(Bv Associated Press)

CHICAGO, Jan. 27-The distracting
influence of goods on athletes at
Northwestern university is responsible
for the consistently poor showing OF
the schools teams according to an ed1-
torial published in the university's
newspaper the Daily Northwestern.
The alumni are extremely radical
en- the subject" said the editorial
They call loudly for reduction of CO.
ed influence in campus activities, and
denounce the effect of the presence of
the coed on the success of the athletic
teams. More than a little OF the fail
ure of the teams this year, they as
sert can be blamed on Miss North
western.
There are other schools with more
women and a giddier social whirl, yet
where successful athletic teams are a
tradition. The difference lies in that
they have such an abundance of ath-
letic material any athlete can be drop
ped if he persists in falling in love.
Either the number of women on
the campus or their share in activities
must be reduced. No other school in
the conference has such a large pro-
portion of women. If the success of
athletics is menaced, as suggested
more material will have to be attract
ed to allow for Cupid's fatalities or
the influence of the coed automatical-
ly curtailed by reduction in numbers,
to avert the trouble"

FROM BASEBALL CHIEF
TO GOLF CLUB BOSS
CRY Associated Pressl

CHICAGO, Jan. 27.-From baseball
chief to golf club manager might be
the title of an autobiography of Adrian
c. Arson, for he signed up today as
chief director of a golf club, the Din
moor, which is to set a new style in
golfdom.
After many years on the diamond
both as player and manager, Captain
Arson, popularity as Pop" one day
allowed his enormous form to be in
weighed to a golf links and there was
beguiled into swinging a club at wee
white ball on the first tee. He found
The ball at first as elusive as a swift
double curve, but eventually he hit it
a healthy swat.
As the ball sailed away like feath-
or in a breeze the baseball dean was
smitten with golf fever, and became
a confirmed golfer. Asked few years
ago which he liked better, golf or
baseball he replied: well, | would
rather play baseball than see a golf
match, but l would much rather play
golf than see a baseball game" And
so in the winter and the summer, the
captain swings his herculean frame
over the public links at Jackson park,
clad in knicker uniform and playing
a tolerably good game. And now in
order to be inseparable from the links,
he has undertaken to manage the Din
moor club, where members will reduce
their annual dues by allowing the pub
lie to play at a daily fee, except on
Saturdays, Sundays and holidays.
Those days are sacred to members,
who expect TO have the luxury of a
private club at less than half the eN-
pense of most clubs.

RICHMOND READY FOR
COLUMBUS HIGH TEAM
IN EXPECTED BATTLE

Richmond high school is ready to-
battle the Columbus high school bas-
ketball team on the Coliseum floor
Friday night. A curtain-raiser will be
played between the local high school,
seconds and the Hagerstown second
team. at 7:30 o'clock The big game
will start at $50 o'clock
This game will offer the first real
high school basketball game of the
1922 season, inasmuch as the teams
which have been brought here have
been decidedly weak. Columbus has
been looked forward to by locals as
the team which will put up fine ex-
hibition of basketball and make the
locals fight all the way.
The Columbus team is an Indiana
team which has been stepping out in
the fastest company all over the state
They have played 10 games this year,
IS being won and only one having
been lost. That one was to the fast.
Franklin high school five, which has
been the state championship team for
the past two years.
With such a record the Columbus
outfit should attract crowd which
will pack the Coliseum.
Factors in Machine
Factors in the Columbus machine
are the two forwards, Howe and Es-
sex, who have been the mainstays of
the five for the past two years. Howe
is especially dangerous when it comes
to shooting long shots and his team
mate, Essex, is hard floor worker.
Richmond will enter the fray with
fighting FIVE which will be in the
best possible physical condition. Kess-
Ter and Greene will be depended upon
to keep the Columbus forwards from
scoring. Rost, Harkins and Kennedy
are in the best possible condition and
announce that they are ready for the
| long looked to contest.

More European balklines billiard
stars have arrived in the .. S. to show
their shots Edouard Roudil and AIRY
Bos are the newest arrivals.
A few facts about Roudil, then.
He is nearing forty-one. Was born
in Carcassonne in the south of France
on March 7, 1880. Unlike Willie Hoppe
and some other cue wizards Roudil did
not attract attention until he was 20.
Then he won the amateur title in what
would be called Glass B in this coun-
try's cue circles. Five years later
he won the major amateur champion
ship of France. Two years later he
dared try to win the worlds title in
the tourney staged in the L. s., but
failed to make the grade.
Two years ago he succeeded in win
ming the worlds title, defeating among
others the above mentioned Mr.. Bos of
Holland, now recognized as Europe'S
greatest amateur balkline artist.
Roudils record run in championship
Journeys is 166, but he is credited with
runs as high as 444 in practice.
