lnN NEA serNine.l

Ann Arbor, Mich, Feb. 23.---Ioyal "Red" Cherry is a sophomore student at tho University Of Michigan. He l. also a basketball player. And Il good one, at that. In fact, Cherry has this season pulled the unique in Maize and Blue court play
 When Cherry reported for basket ball practice last fall he didn't have much of a chance apparently to gain a regular berth. For Michigan had practically an entire team Of M" wearers. But he did size up as good second-st material. And in the pre-Big Ten games that's just what the sorrcl-toppcd eager was--a sub stitutc.
 Then came the opening Of Inc Western Conference season. Illinois vas the opposition. X tough oppon- ont, too. In the first half Of the iilt a speedy little fellow named Potter time and again broke away from the slower-footcd Captain Birks Of Mich. igan and poitod tho ball in the net. Frankly, the Sucker forward simply made q sucker out Of the lanhy lead CT Of the Wolverines
 And then--Couch Mathcr or tho Wolverines sprang q huge surprise. Hc sent Birke 10 the bench and trotted out Cherry in his stead. Strangely enough, With Cherry in inc battle front, the scoring procliyities of the brilliant Potter quickly stopped. One lone ficld goal was all that Ihe trbana lad got during the remainder of inc fracas And ail because of Cherry. Nothing else. Cherry's stel- lar performance earned him regular berth on the Michigan quintet.
 As for Captain Birke--threc sea sons member Of Michigan court argre Edtion--Well. ne appears 10 be destined 70 watch most of inc games from seat on tho bench. Harry kipke will pilot the outfit when Birks is not on the floor.

10 YEAR OLD 'KIR
 DOG DERBY WINNER
YoungSter Vanquishes Older and
 Experienced Rivals

Ashton, Idaho, Feb. 23.--Youth was served with a vengeance yesterday 1 when l6-yoar-old Olcott Earn, ''the kid' outfought, outmaneuvered seven veterans Of the snow trails and won the 25 mile American dog derby in two hours, 22 minutes and 40 sec onds. He dashed in one minute and S7 seconds ahead of Warren Cording- ley. who placed second, and 10 min- utes ahead of the redoubtabl Shorty Russicll, Canadian knight of the trail, who performed the almost impossible and brought his leaderless string into fourth place.
 Smoky Gaston, last years cham pion, took third. a"Tud" Kent, four times winner of the race and favorite this year, dropped out at the start of the third lap, on account of two al- most exhausted dogs. "The kid" fin- ished with an exhausted dog in his sledge.
 The record for the course is two hours and nine minutes.
 The kid" was master of the sit uatlon at all times. Three times had the champions defeated him, the first tune when he was but 12 years old. At i5 he placed third, and yesterday, with q little more age, little more stride, a little more strength and with doss little more accustomed to the grueiling test he swerved past his former conquerers and proved 10 all that the kid'' was, as far as the race went at least, a man.
 Elgnt thousand persons attended the race. Ashton has population of, 1000.

TRIPLE PLAY NOT
 50 HARD ALL ALONE
While Not Difficult, It Is Rare--
 Done But Five Times
tBy Billy Evans)

I What may seem to be & difficult fielding feat, because of the rarity with which it is performed, does not always hold true. For instance. take the triple play, unassisted. Since the inauguration of major league baseball the play has been made only five times Peculiarly enough the feat was | performed twice last season, both times in Boston. Unquestionabiy the I triple play. unassisted, is decidedly rare but not necessarily difficult. It is obvious, that for one player to retire the side by making a triple | play, unassisted, the whole situation must be moro or less made to order. It so happened that I was the um- pire in the game at Boston last sum- | mer in which First Baseman George Burns of the Boston club made his unassistcd triple play. It is something of coincidence that Burns turned the trick against Cleveland, the club he is to play with this year. The play came with runners on first and second
 
 On the hit and run. the batter knock cd line drive directly into Burns hands. He touched out the runner going to second and then beat the runner originally on second back 10 that base.
 As l waved the third man out, Burns, with a smile playing over his face, turned to me and rcmarked:
 'ls there anyone else can touch to mako it four
 Burns will tell you that during his career in tho major leagues that he has made hundreds of plays far more difficult than his unassstcd triple play, yet that is one play that will go down into records, and stick there long after Burns ss player has been forgotten. The really commendable feature in making a triple play. unsssisted, is no, thc execution Of the play but rather thc alert t's Of the mind in grasping the possibilities. The slightest fraction of a second delay on such play would make impossible the successful completion.
 
 As ! wltehed Burns make history thht afternoon at Boston. the thing that l nitgoled al far more than the execution cf the play was the way h.s ''iaI grasped the situation.
 
 The third and final out at seGand lr'ar %s f8thrr close doaision. Had iGihls hcaitGttd but slightly in his lntent.on, the play would have failed to go over. Insariably ina triple play. it Is the mental feature rather than the physical execution ihot is deserving of praise. Of course steA play provides big thrill for .ne spectator, but from playing sngi" there is seldom anything difficult bout it The play simply must be made in order Co go oyer.
