them in the summOning up of the foot
ball championship. Moncure playing
end for the Independents added great
strength to the defense of the team
and time and time again he would
break through the Knick's line and
throw them for a loss.
Light, Levonis, Peyton and Hayden
played especially we'll at their posi-
lions. Too much credit cannot be
given the team as a whole for It's team
play and fighting spirit which they
showed on the field yesterday. This
victory was due to working under a
coach. Kemp Cockrell, coach of the
team deserves good deal of credit
for the way in which he has developed
the team in the short time he has been
with it from an individual roganiza-
ton into a team in which team play

SETS SPEED LIMIT

New York, Dec. An the argu-
ment over the acceptance of the rec
Ords made by Charley Paddock, the
California Splinter, the record COM
mittee of the A. A u. voted 70 re-
ject the records ION the grounds that
teh times for the intermediate dis
tances were physically impossible for
a human to do"
If the record committee is mentally
qualified to pass final judgment on
the ability of any human in athletics
it is the smartest body Of men that
ever lived.
1t is folly for any men, who must
admit that they are bounded by M-
man limitations of mentality, to sit in
august session ard attempt to set a
limit for the accomplishment of any
athlete.
1t might be said, of course that no
athlete would ever be able TO pat the
sixteen pound shot two miles or that
no high jumper ever will be able to
clear the bar at one hundred feet
However, it would be Just as ride
ulous to say that those things could
be done as TO say that no spriutcr
would ever be able TO run 100 yards
in less than nine and threa-tif,hs
seconds.
If this action of the A. A. L. in es-
tabhshing the limits of human ability
is TO become a precedent, the 4 a.
L. may Just as well declare closed
the broad jump record, the high
lump record, the quarter a1d half
mile records and notify young ath-
letes to try something else. because
no human being can better those rec
ords.
The broad jump record stood for
q wears until Ned Gourdin, the great
Harvard athlete came along and beat
it. Along the A. A U. line Of rea-
soning, it will be at least twenty
years again before that record can be
equalled.
The records for two miles up to
ten miles have been standing for lS
years, the record for eco yards has
been on the books rs years and IL
would seem to indicate that the limit
had been reached in these events
They might as well be closed to avoid
arguments in the future.
In some Of its deliberations. the l..
A. T., assumes the role OF omnipo-
tent wisdom and in others il makes q
bid just for the opposite
Joie Ray and the two LOOMS boys
weer set down for what was declared
to be exorbitant expense demands.
Instead of inflicting punishment
o the athletics, the A. A. t.. should
get after the clubs who pay eXorbi-
tant expenses and then. after the
manner Of a "welcher," file COM
plant, sit in Judgment on a case in
which thew are partly the plaintiff
and then take the money back
Ray. however. didn't get more than
a slap on the wrist. He was ordered
to return 500 and suspended for the
rest of the year.
The suspension was a Joke because
Ray could not run before the first Of
January if ne wanted to TIE season
does not open until then.
Frank LOOMS was ordered OF Hay

pended as an amateur He hasn't

INDOOR TRACK IS
PROMISING FUN
ny United T'ress.)

New York, Dec. THE coming in
door season promises to be one OF
the most interesting that track fans
have had the privilege of looking for
ward to for some time. The compe-
tition and talent that is in view at
this early stage is enough to insure
a big percentage Of exciting races IN
every meet Of the year.
The East, so far, has taken the in
itiative in promoting the events. al
though the West has recently been
making some creditable efforts.
In fact the eastern fans are reach
ing that stage Of education where
they are beginning to get critical and
it is perhaps for this reason as much
as any other that the meets continue
to grow in quality as well as gun
tity.
Athletes themselves are making
greater efforts than ever before.
Thousands of Youngsters are in train
ing and the veterans, who have won
their share Of the honors and have
sworn dozen times to hang up their
shoes, feel the call once more, haul
out their togs, stained with the oil of
many a rub, and test the rather ques-
tionable pep in their legs in prepare
ton for the come back" they have
promised themselves from year to
year.
Loren Murchison has returned to
his old stamping grounds and will be
very much in evidence at all Of the
big affairs. Murch is the class of the
field at present, and has proved him
self to be the fastest performer on
the boards for the last several sea-
sons.

HORNsBY-GREAT BATTING
STAR
my United Press.)

New York, Dec. 4-Rogers Horns
bv. the great star Of the st. Louis
Cardinals. was the outstanding hitter
and slugger Of the 1922 baseball sea-
son.
For the third successive year, he led
the National League hitters, accord
ing to the official averages released
today.
mark made by any National League
hitter since Ed Delehanty was the
champion in 1899 with .40S.
With $50 hits over the seasons run
he also broke the record of 243 hits
made in 1897 by Willie Keller.
His total of ~ homers made HIM
baseball's smuggling king for the sea-
son and broke all National League
records.
Hornsby also led in run scoring
with l4l runs to his credit, Max Car
ey, the fleet Pirate being just one
behind him.
Hornsby also led in doubles with
46, while Jake Daubert, of the Reds,
had the honors in triples with % with
Rabbit Maranville, Pittsburgh, sec
ond with - and Hornsby third with
II.
General improvement in batting is
noticed in the average, although the
number of 300 hitters in 1921 was
So against SO for the past season.
With the exception Of Hornsby, al
most new race of batting kings
came into power in 1922.
Among the first twenty on this
years roll of honor, Emil Meusel,
the Giant outfielder, was the only one
who did not do better than his 1921
average. He fell down only slight
ly, however, from .343 to 800.
Casey Stengel, the reiuvenated or
phan Of the National League, was
one of the biggest sensations of the
year. Working as a regular with the
Giants he jumped his average from
.2Sl to 1868.
Fonseca, the Cincinnati infelder,
hoped from .27G to .36l, but he Is a
Young player and his improvement
was more TO be expected. Another
youngster who came fast was Cotton
Tierney, the Pirate intielder, who
hoped his average from ,29S to $40.
The following table shows what I'M
provement was made among the first
