TEXAS BEATS BAYLOR
LonghOGls Score 1877 Triumph Over
Bears In Basket Ball.


Austin, Tex. Jan. 27.-The Texas
University basket ball team was again
victorious by an easy score over the
Baylor University Bears in the second
game of their series on the university
court here Saturday night. The score
was 23 to Z.
With only one field goal 'chalked up
during the contest, by Lyons, the Bears
were overwhelmed. -.....
The game was featured by rough
playing, particularly in the last half.
Both teams guarded closely. The Long
horn guards covered Lyons, center for
the Bears, and he managed to secure
the first half with long shot from
the center of the court. That was the
only field goal the Bears were able to
register. Lyons made five free throws
and missed five, thus making all the
counters for his team.
Peyton, Longhorn captain, led the
scoring for the visitors, with eleven
points on one field goal and nine foul
throws. Settegast at center played his
usual brilliant game and roped three
baskets, while Robertson followed with
two and Schuharllt, substituting for
Barrett in the second half. made one
The first half ended with the score
standing s to in favor of the Long.
horns. At the beginning of the second
half, the Longhorns flashed brilliantly
and roped a number of baskets in quick
succession.
During the last five minutes of play
| both Romney and Bridges took theiI
regular teams out and sent substitute
teams on the floor to finish the game

MINOR SALARY HIGHER

More Than He Got in Majors.

Seattle. Wash, Jan. 27.-Playing in
the minor leagues isn't such a tough
assignment after all.
DOC" Johnston, 70 played first
base for the Philadelphia Athletics last
year, has served ten seasons in the
major leagues. When Connie Mack de-
cided he could no longer use him,
Johnston was made a free agent, as is
Customary for players who have go
served in the majors.
A number of minor league clubs were
after Johnston, several wanting him
as a manager. DOC" finally hooked
up with the Seattle club. d..
Report has it that he will receive
a $4,000 salary. also that he was given
an additional $4,000 to sign, making his
salary for the year 10000.
That figure is in excess Of any sal.
airy that Johnston drew down during
his major league career.

Willard Waits Four
Years to Claim Foul
Beat Him at Toledo

New York, Jan. 27.-A foul blow
enabled Jack Dempsey to beat jess
Willard for the heavyweight cham
pionship of the world at Toledo al
most four years ago.
Yessir, jess says so.
After waiting to make this dis
closure for all these years, the form
err champion comes out with the fol-
lowing statement:
Jack Dempsey won the title from
me on a sneak punch. He slammed
me on the chin as we were coming
out of clinch, after we had been
ordered to break clean. His act was
contrary to the rules Of the Toledo
commission.
"After that sneak punch, / was
through. didn't know thing from
then on. l was helpless, just about.
| had dropped my arms to step back
clean when Dempsey put over that
illegal punch that gave him the
championship"
Dropping his guard, self-admitted,
is the part Of this statement that is
tickling folks around here.

within the next six weeks or so.
Art Fletcher, Phillies, and Bill Nc,
Kechnie, Pittsburg, Of the National
loop, and Frank Chance, Boston, and
Owen Bush, Washington, of the Amer
lean, are the quartet referred to.
OF the other dozen, Connie Mack is
the pioneer, having led the Athletics on
% previous campaigns, or ever since
Philadelphia came into the Johnsonian
circuit back in 1901. McGraw of the
Giants is right behind with .-enty sea-
sons to his credit, while the rest have
been plotting their respective clubs at
least two campaigns.
And of the sixteen, five have acted
in a similar capacity for other major
league outfits, with Higgins of the
Yankees, Chance of Boston, and
Hickey, Cardinals, having led teams
in both circuits during their careers
Most of the present-day pilots have
long since laid aside their playing uni
forms, being content to give their or
dcrs from the bench. In fact, Cobb
Speaker and Fletcher are the only reg
ular player-managers, though Bush may
decide to get into some of his teams

WATCH TAKEN FROM GIRL
 SENT BACK FROM SWEDEN
Police Recover Timepiecc Which For getful Admirer Took With Him
 on His Return to Europe.

That the arm of the law is far reaching and no matter how long a case may take, the police, if possible, solve it, was indicated today. Last fall, Sergeant William r. McCue re- ceived complaint from a local young woman, that her friend had left town after she had loaned him q gold watch, After making inquiries she became convinced that he went back to his native land, Sweden. She com rhuncated these facts to Sergeant Me Cue, who took the matter up with Chief William c. Hart. After several conferences, the head of the depart ment and the chief of the detective bureau decided to communicate with authorities in Sweden.
 Information was transmitted to Till kroneansman for Marks Harad Frits- la whose office is similar to that of the states attorney in this country. The Swedish official conducted an in- vestigation and located the former New Britain man, who has since mar ried. The man admitted that he had taken the watch and readily surrend- cred it. The timepiece has been re- ceived at the police headquarters, and will be turned over to it's rightful owner.
