YOUTH TRIUMPHANT
AS ALOYSIUS WINS

Youth handed age and experience
another knockout wallop when the
Aloysius basket ball team defeated
the Corby quint, 80 to 81, last night
at the Arcade in the first of series
of the best two out of three games.
The second engagement will be staged
next Sunday night.
In a preliminary to last nights
purely local battle the Palace Laun-
dry five won a tame contest from the
Buffalo Lincolns, 81 to 10.
The Corby players gave the
Aloysius team quite a scrap as long
as they lasted" but the losers, who
led, IA to II, at intermission, had dis
played signs of weariness in the first
90 minutes of the struggle, and after
adding four points to their total at
the outset of the last half, COM
pletely faded, and were smothered by
the aggressive attack of the l street
clan.
Edelstein, the youthful member of
the Corby team, and GoetZ, were the
able to stand the gaff. Edelstein
showed plenty of skill and stamina
and Goetz did some good guarding
and made three goals, two of them
on long-range shots.
Corby got it's first half lead by
clever passing and Edelstein's shoot
ing from the floor and foul line, but
even at that the Bakery players show
ed they lacked the stamina to cope
with their sturdy rivals by taking
the limit of three timeouts, and they
were penalized twice for taking rest
periods in the last portion Of the
game.
Aloysius was not long in asserting
itself in the second half. After Corby
had registered twice from floor to
run it's margin to Is to II, the ]
Streeters went on a scoring spree
that netted Is points in a row while
their rivals were helpless. 1t soon
was all over but the shouting, and the

Following Miss Wills triumphs in
1924, including victory in the Olympic
singles championships and decisive
defense of the American title she
first won in 1923, many critics as
serted their belief in the ability of
the American girl to vanquish
Lenglen. The last chance of a test
between them last Summer vanished
when the Frenchwoman withdrew
from the Olympics, after her collapse
at Wimbledon, but there is a possi-
bility that they may meet and decide
the question of supremacy this year..
for the American girl is planning
another trip abroad, to study as well
as to play tennis.
These two stars represent dia-
metrically opposite types of the court
game-Lenglen, dynamic, a flashing
net artist and unusually versatile,
while Miss Wills, a cool and con-
fident strategist, depends largely
upon the tremendous pace and power
to her shots. A comparison of their
ability is afforded through a mutual
rival, Mrs. Mallory, but 1T offers moth
ing conclusive. In France and at
Wimbledon for several seasons Len
glen humbled Mrs. Mallory, but at
home the latter has met equally as

Wills in the last two national cham
pionship finals.

d nlSn-CldSS pltCher TO work on.
In other words, team with top
notch pitching and even ordinary bat
ting power can win many games. But
club of sluggers with poor pitching
is at a great disadvantage. The
world champion White Sox of 1906
We're known as the hitless wonders"
With such pitchers as Doc White, Ed
Walsh and Nick Altrock they didn't
have to get many runs to win.
Many youngsters get started as
pitchers, thinking more of the glory
o. the job than of the physical and
mental requirements. They are square
pegs in round holes. A boy should
study himself before he tries to be-
come a pitcher. If he measures up
TO certain standards he can go ahead
and by hard work be pretty well as
sured of gaining success.
Physically, a pitcher should be big.
He should be of good height as well
as size and be of the rugged type
The pitcher is in every play and does
as much work in the course of a
game as all the other players put
together, the catcher excepted He
has to be stronger than the average
In order to stand the strain. But he
can't be overgrown and clumsy and
expect to make much headway.
There have been small pitchers who
have met with great success. They
are an exception to the rule AS a
general thing the percentage is
against them. But youngster who
hasn't reached his full growth, If his
heart, is set on pitching, should go
ahead. He has every chance for de-
velopment. 1t is better for pitcher
to be bit understood than over
grown. -
When you go over the list of the
really great pitchers you will find
that practically all of them were
powerful men. Take Waddell. Young
Matthewson and johnson for instance
They were tall, big shouldered and
trim wasted. They also had big
hands and long fingers, which are
great assets to a pitcher. If you can
get your fingers pretty we'll around
= a base ball your chances for success
as a pitcher are increased.
Must Study the Game. --.
The mental equipment of a pitch
ing candidate is almost as important
as good physique. Unless a pitcher
is deep student of the game and
quick to detect the strength and
weakness of opposing teams he will
never gain lasting success. His job,
If he is to hold it properly. calls for
smartness. Many pitchers with less
AletIui dl dDlltly IHdn others make the
better records because they have
more brains.
l would strongly advise every
youngster starting in as a pitcher to
study the game all the time He
mustn't stop thinking just because he
isn't pitching. He can learn much by
observing batters and plays while on
the bench. He should know the
mechanics of every position on
team.
And he should school himself to be
cool when under fire. He can't be
highly excitable and expect to get
far as a pitcher. He should be able
to do his best when in a tight place
He has to think fast and accurately
without losing his mental balance
Summed up, pitcher needs a good
physique, brains, coolness and cour-
age to start off with. The last three
requirements are absolutely essen
tial. The first is highly desirable
