MORE ATHLETES
AT DRAKE MEET
THAN FORMERLY

Des Moines, Iowa. Jan. 10
Drake university will entertain a
larger number of athletes than ever
at the annual Drake relays, April
IS and %, according to informa-
ton seaching Athletic Director
Kenneth Wilson from heads Of
athletic bodies at other schools.
Among the reasons for the in
creased attendance are the facts
that the Big Ten conference has
officially pledged support to the
event; that Drake pays the ez-
penses of the meet and prorates the
surplus of receipts among the con-
testants; and that additional relay
events and field contests are shown
on this years program.
AS an added attraction athletic
authorities at Drake are giving
their attention to the improvement
OF the relay track in Drake stad-
ium. Already rated as one OF the
fastest tracks in the west, the con-
templated improvements will make
it possible to establish new and bet
ter records. says Mr. Wilson.
The fact that Drake will hold
the relays on the same date as the
Penn relays, means only that the
west has become big enough 20
support relay CT its own" Coach
Wilson said.

CITIES EXPRESS
THEIR APPROVAL
OF NEW CIRCUIT

Plans for the formation of new
baseball league are rapidly shap-
ing themselves. NJ H Sexton %
Rock Island, president of the Ma
tional Association of Minor Lea CUES,
expresses confidence the PROPOSE
ton will become a reality before
long
Mr.. Sexton has returned from a
trip to Waterloo and Ottumwa.
He found sentiment in both cities
decidedly favorable to the new cir
cult In fact, Ottumwa. blessed by
a baseball park that needs slight
improvements only, is ready to sign
up at anytime, while the committee
at work in Waterloo, Investigating
the park matter. assured him the
proposition would not fall through
there.
At Cedar Rapids. Mr.. Sexton
found enthusiasm in abundance.
More than 100 stockholders of the
Cedar Rapids association attended
the annual meeting, at which Mr..
Sexton was present Friday night.
When a vote was asked on the
question of continuing baseball
there was a spontaneous whoOp of
approval that left no doubt as to
which side Bunny fans are on.
At Waterloo Thursday night, be-
tween SO and so gathered to dis
cuss and act on the proposal. This
resulted in a committee of Is be-
ing selected to carry out the wishes
of the city.

.ILLINI TRACK
SQUAD BETTER
Captain Russell Wharton. 2-Miie
Champion, is Moline High
School Boy.

Urbana, Ill. Jan. Is. Coach
Harry Gill's track prospects for the
University of Illinois this season
look even better than last year
when the Illini won the first ma
tional intercollegiate meet at Chi
cago, in the opinion of athletic fol-
lowers
The Gilmen last year carried away
more honors than any other team
at the Penn games, by winning the
4-mile and distance medley relay
races, placed first in the hop, step
and jump, first and third in the
high jump, first in the discus and
second in the javelin.
The team will not go to Penn
this year, but will attend the Drake
relays as usual After the Illini
indoor relay carnival here, March
4, and the indoor conference the
following week, the men will take
to the out-of-doors in preparation
for their trip to Texas, April IS to

country team this fall, is running
more smoothly in his training than
he has ever done before Ed Wells.
Deuseaberry. Patterson, Swanson

lance runners who should place
well this season.
Illinois will be stronger in the
jayelfn and dashes, the only two
events in which the Illtni have been
weak in previous years The re
turn of Bunnie Buchanan, Illinois
pole vaulter of two years ago, has
frightened prospects in this event,

All the great hitters pick on the
cripple.
IN baseball, picking on the Grip
pie is taking a crack at a good one,
when you have the pitcher in the
hole.
The great hitters like Wagner,
Laioie, Cobb, Hornsby, Speaker,
SisleT and any number of others.
have made many a base hit by TAX
ing a healthy cut at the cripple.
Otter you hear a batter criticised
for hitting at the ball with the
count three balls and a strike, on
two balls and no strikes Many of
the fans figure the batter should
have waited the pitcher out.
1t is at such a time that the
really great hitters of the game get
set to take a cut at the next offer
ing. They know they have the
pitcher in the hole They realize
he must get the next ball over.
Very often in so doing. the pitcher
eases up and mis- delivery is far
from puzzling.
This feature of batting was
brought strongly to my attention in
a series at Chicago last summer
Bib Falk of the White Sox gives
promise OF developing into a great
hitter. Falk has a good eye, hits
nicely at the ball, but of course
lacked the experience and cunning
of the star.
Washington was playing in Chi
cago at the time The first day of
the series, Falk had looked rather
badly at the bat. He had struck out
several times after getting the

Detroit U.iS
LOOKING AHEAD

Detroit, Jan. IG.-Although ham
pered by the loss of Harold Lauer,
who ranked as one of the best full
backs last year, the University Of
Detroit football team IS expected
by its supporters to at least dupli-
cate the record for 1921. The team
last year won all of its games ex-
cept the final one of the season,
when it bowed to Washington &,
Jefferson by a IA to 2 score
With Lauer will go seven other
players who distinguished them
selves during the 1921 campaign
In most instances, however. the
places of the retiring men can be
filled with comparatively little
trouble.
Next to Lauer, Detroit will miss
Tom kenney, the center, most.
Jerry, brother of Tom, will be re-
lied upon to uphold family tradi-
ton at the pivot position.
Among the other stars lost to the
1922 squad are Fitzgerald. half

MILAN QUINTET
SHOWING CLASS

Coached by Stanley Taber, star
of various independent basketball
teams in years past, the Milan In
dependents have forged rapidly to
the front as one OF, the fastest quin-
tets in this vicinity. The Milanites
lost the first game of the season
to the Rock Island Boosters bur
have since won eight straight, the
latest victims being the Rock Is
land Cardinals The Cards lost to
the villagers Friday night at Milan,
43 to 10.
Coach Taber has drilled his team
in short. snappy passing and &C
-Curate basket shooting. He has
developed a pyramid block defense,
which has helped the team win its
games, By this formation the
guards are brought into the often
sive play. These two. Johnson and
Smith. have been outstanding feat
ures of the seasons playing.
The Milan team is composed of
Fitzsimmons and Thompson. for
wards; Clark, center; johnson and
Smith, guards. In meeting the
Cardinals last week. they went
against some of the best tossers in
Rock Island. Milan, however,
showed wonderful improvement in
all departments. Its passing and
basket shooting was very accurate
all during the game. Thompson led
the attack with seven field goals.
The defense work OF the Milan
guards was superior to anything
seen on the Milan floor this season
They held their opponents to two
field goals in the last half.
Next Friday night Milan will take
