When the indoor track season gets
into full swing this winter New York
University plans to send one of the
strongest teams in its history into COM
petition with neighboring colleges and
clubs. Coach Emil Won Filing has
gathered a very promising squad Of
veterans, who with the aid OF several
star prep school performers newly en-
rolled at the university. are being de-
pended on winning consistently.
Won Filing has acquired the use of the
Twenty-second Regiment Arnory for
his practice workouts during the cold
weather season. Almost daily since the
Thanksgiving recess the Violet track and
field athletes have been going through
their stunts at the armory under the
watchful and experienced eye of their
coach.
Among the veterans who will sport
the colors Of the Bronx institution on
the track this winter are Paul Cour-
tots and Ed Weatherdon. who rank
high at their specialties. Courtois Is
the lad who two years ago when
freshman at ". Y. u. went down
to the Penn relays and carried Off the
highest honors in the broad jump with
a leap OF 23 feet inches. At the
same championship games last season
the Violet star wac beaten by Ned
Gourdin of Harvard. present holder OF
the worlds record for the broad jump,
who won the event then by the narrow
margin of "a OF an inch. Gourdins
leap which carried him to victory was
for 23 feet 1915 inches.
Courtois Is Versatile.
Courtois, in addition to his ability as
a broad jumper has won many point
for the Violet at other events. Against
Amherst last year the n. \. U. all
round star placed in the high-jump. as
Gus and shotput after winning the
hurdle race.
In Ed Weatherdon, Won Ellins pos
sesses one of the most capable h.gh
Jumpers and discus men among the col
lege athletes. Weatherdon is Dig SIX
foot lad and has cleared the bar at over
six feet on more than one occasion IN
competition. Last spring at the miooie
Atlantic States meet. held at Baltimore,
Weatherdon topped the bar at SIX rect
two inches, thereby setting new rec
ord for the district. He also won fittn
place at the Penn relay carnival last
season, at which the pick OF the coun-
try was represented. In dual meets

Off tackle plunges. forward passes and

University Of California eleven in Of
fensive play against Washington and
Jefferson at Pasadena, Cal. in the an
nual New Years Day East VS.. West
football game.
Califo-nia's team. probably the
strongest ever developed in the West,
using mainly tackle plays and an aerial
attack, went through a hard schedule
this year without being defeated and
without even being forced to exert it's
full strength. Generally California punts
a gread deal, waiting for the break"
and when the break" comes then starts
it's strong advance.
No defeats have been suffered by the
Bears since 1919. Last year the eleven,
dubbed the wonder team," went
through the season undefeated, piled up
high scores, won the Pacific Coast Con-
ference championship and defeated Ohio
State University, Big Ten champion,
New Years Day. This year the scores
have not been so high. but the Confer
ence title was won for second time
without a defeat.
No Outstanding Star.
California has no outstanding star.

a habit of throwing forward passes fifty

kept Muller out of most OF this year s

will start at fullback, does most of the
kicking and in every game this year
his boots of from forty to sixty yards

Building Fifty Feet High.
In height the building will be approx
imately fifty feet with tower forming
the entrance at the eastern end. The
roof will be OF slate. The architects OF
the memorial are Coy g. Rice of New
York. When completed the rink will be
placed under the control OF the athletic
association, which will then assume re-
sponsibility for its maintenance. The
cost of operation is estimated at $4,000
a year. but it's large seating capacity

The money which the committee is
now raising to complete the building
fund will be collected entirely by volun-
| tary subscription from the friends of
the late Capt. Baker both within and
without Princeton circles. Any contri-
button. no matter how small, Will be
gratefully received.

three years he established a record for
himself for consistent playing. He was
even more brilliant as a member of
| the hockey team for three years In
| this sport he was in a class by him
self. and 1t was largely due to his skill
on the Ice that Princeton held such a
high place in this branch of athletics
| during his undergraduate years He was
| captain OF the hockey team in his Junior
year. but declined reelection the follow
ing year.
Met Accidental Death.
In addition to his athletic prowess
he mained high scholastic record, and
was universally popular. For year
after his graduation he was with J. p
Morgan & Co, and then Joined his

year before Americas entry into the
war Capt. Baker took up flying with
the idea Of fitting himself for service.
