SNOW TRANSPORTED
FOR SKI CONTESTS

BRIAR CLIFF MANOR, y. Y. Jan
uary lin thirty motor trucks
workmen today began hauling $4,000
cubic feet of snow to Briar Cliff
Lodge from the Scarborough station
'of the New York Central railroad.
where IL arrived yesterday in six
gondola cars from Thendora, a little
lumber town in the Adirondacks.
Delivery of the snow at the club
will complete one of the most spec
tacular efforts ever made to supply
the New York city public with thrills.
1t was shipped from Thendora to
make a ski-jumping slide and landing
platform for the American Olympic
skiing team at its public exhibition
Sunday before sailing to compete In
the Olympiad in France. The pro-
ceeds will help finance the teams
trip abroad.
The task today was to transport the
flakes up the hill to the lodge, two
miles from the station. The team is
expected to arrive today from Mime
apolis, with it's manager. Mayor
George f. Leach of that city to su-
pervise construction of the ski-jump.
The snow will be spread in a long
ribbon, starting with a width of five
feet and gradually broadening to
forty feet at the landing at the bot
tom of a hill, where it will be
packed two feet deep. A huge stack
of hay will be placed at the end OF
the snow slide to protect the fall of
any skier travelling out of bounds.
and telegraph poles and trees against
which the jumpers might strike will
be provided with bumpers of straw.

It's early demise had been freely
predicted when athletics in the Wash
tngton Light Infa ntry began to wane
in 1900. but the league proved Won
derfully lively for dying organiza-
tion that season and several fol-
lowing. That interest in it was hard
to kill was shown by the number of
teams that held franchises in the last
seven years Of its existence. No less
than twenty were In action al various
times. the more prominent being the
Light Infantry. Corcoran Cadets,
Eastern Athletic Club. Queer Wheel
men, Mount Pleasant Athletic Club.
Carroll Institute, Washington Ath-
mac Boat Club, Gibraltar Athletic
Club. Y. NJ. c. A.. Morton Cadets and
Ordway Rifles.
There were some terrific tussles for
titles during this period and none of
the champions garnered their laurels
easily. In 1900, Eastern Athletic Club
shattered the fve-year winning
streak OF the Washington Light In
fantry Corps. winning all of it's eight
games. Although Independent teams
here were playing five men to a side
then, the District league still retained
the seven-man teams, and each one Of
the seven Eastern regulars was ready
to take long lay-off after the In
fantrymen had been nosed out In the
last, match OF the season. Shorty

stars OF that Eastern outfit. but they
were ably assisted by Dunn. Thomp-
son. Moff1t, Hughes and Ockert.
The Light Infantrymen were thought
to be down and out after this re-
verse. but they came back in splendid
way to all other clubs. And just to
add q touch of glory to their re-
juvenation they concluded their cam

G. u. TRACK OUTLOOK
BRIGHT THIS SEASON

With many veterans available and
bright prospects among the recruits,
Georgetown University anticipates
another successful indoor track sea-
son. Coach John OReilly has had the
runners and hurdlers at work out of
doors since classes were resumed
after the holidays and they are rap
idly rounding into form. The Hill
toppers expect to be represented in
the Silk Athletic Club games in New
York next "Wednesday, but they will
not start their campaign formally un-
til the Fordham meet occurs, week
from tomorrow.
Among the veterans Of whom much
is expected are George Marsters, cap
tain of the team; Ray Haas, Tony
Plansky, Paul Herlihy, George Kin
ally, Ed Brooks and Andy Gaffey.
Marsters, who has starred at the half
is being groomed for the mile this
winter. All of these men were con-
sistent point scorers last year.
John Holden, Washington boy
who starred at Penn. is eligible TO
compete for Georgetown this season
and will be used in the quarter and
half-mile events. Other new men on
the squad are William Dowding, a
sprinter who also holds the national
junior broad jump title; Eugene
eastman, a dash performer; Jimmy
Burgess. star quarter-miler from New
York; William Sullivan, a miller, and
Edward Swinburne, quarter and half
mile runner. who was a sensation in
New York scholastic athletics.
Vernon Ascher, national junior
quarter mile champion, also is enroll
ed at Georgetown, but will not be eli
gible to compete this year, as last
season he ran under the colors of

COLUMBIA AND PENN
OPEN BASKET LEAGUE

NEW YORK, January 11.--Colum-
bias strong basket ball quint, one of
the favorites in the Eastern IntercoI-
legiate League race, will inaugurate
the 1924 title contest tonight with
Pennsylvania as an opponent.
-Four other league entries will start
play within the next few days. Cor
nell meets Dartmouth at Ithaca Sat
urday, Princeton gets under way
against Columbia next Tuesday, while
Yale. the 1923 champion. opens it's
campaign at Philadelphia against
Pennsylvania on Wednesday.
Columbia has won several big
games this season. having defeated
both Army and Navy.
There is little likelihood, however,
OF any player surprising the high
scoring record of 152 made IN the
1S20-21 season by Eddie McNichol of
Pennsylvania. This year the new
foul-shooting rule. which provides
that the player fouled must make the
free try for goal instead of a teams
crack basket shooter. will check most
OF the high tallying by this method
on the part of any individual.
Among high scorers of last season
who are expected to figure prominent
y IN this seasons race are Suisman
and Pite, crack Ya;e forwards, and
Strom and Wilson of Columbia.

their games indicate that basket ball
was much more like the modern
sport than the pastime as first in

After the CAROLS won the 1904
league title they were keen to meet
the champions OF the National
Guard circuit. When the Corcorans
garnered those laurels with a VIC
tory over the Urell Rifles. Prof.
Joyce was right at hand to hurl
challenge at Capt. Edwards. A
series Of three games was agreed
upon. The teams met in the National
Guard armory for the first fray and
the CAROLS gave the Corcorans d
counts of any further games be-
tween the rivals have been found.
The Ccrcorans, however. stuck to
the sport and in 1905 took several
road trips that were quite successful.
This touring also was tried by a
Washington Light Infantry team, but
with dire results. The corps basket
ers because they played outlaw teams
were charged with professionalism by
the Amateur Athletic Union and put
on black list. \.
That infantry fiasco was q severe
blow to the leagues here, especially
the District circuit, which was none
too steady anyhow at the time. 1t
started the a. A. L. upon a wide
spread investigation of basket ball in
Washington and q number OF dis
qualifications followed. This created
furore in amateur ranks and so
numerous were the desertions that
the District league was all but
wrecked. About half of the promi-
nent players turned professional and
II was not long before paid teams
became the rage.
But the District league long will
be remembered as Il great basket ball
