Antes de aver, Sc suscit6 en- la
C$mara un interesantisimo debate,
relacionado con la forma en- que
debe quedar constituida la Comisi6n
de Hacienda, sin duda alguna la
mas importante de dicho alto cuer
po legislative.
FL representante at-large, por el
Partido Sociahsta sefior Alfonso, ar
gument6 extensamente a favor de
que Sc concediese la debida repre-
sentaci6n en- la Comisi6n de Hacien
da a la minorfa. Uno de sus argu-
mentos, fue ell que la minorfa, en-
muchas ocasiones, presentaba razo-
nes tan justas, q. la mayoria TO
lie quedaba otro remedio que acep-
tarlas.
Agreg6, que el estaba seguro de
que en- la mayoria, habia caballe-
ros que pensaban como ellos, y que
habrian de convenir en- que un pre-
supuesto de siete u ocho millones,
bien administrado, seria suiciente
para llenar los servicios pGbicos.
Y luego hizo Lgeramente menci6n
al pehgro de los grandes presupues
tos de ounce y mas millones de

Tenemos pues por las palabras
de este hder de la minoria, que
Sc consideran como la expression
de La manera de pensar y sentir

que ellos Sc inclinan hacia un pre-
supuesto razonable y que Sc opon-
dram a un presupuesto crecido.

WILL QUIT GAME UNLESS
BIG SHOW LOOMS AHEAD

Gordon Slade, twenty-year-old
shortstop OF the Vernon Tigers,
will quit baseball unless he can con-
vince himself that he will some
day play major league ball. The
bow has but two more years to
serve at college. Slade advised the
Vernon officials that he may report
next spring and give himself one
more trial.
SHADE said to a Vernon official:
"Tf come out next season it will
he my last unless 1 go like a house
afire. One thing is sure, just as
soon as feel I have no major
league stuff in me will quit"

FORTY PLAYERS

Gang includes is Pitchers,
6 catchers and 10 Out
fieIders

II there is really strength in num-
bers. the forlorn Braves outfit
ought to be one Of the most
formidable aggregations in the two
big leagues today.
According to the list just issued
by Secretary Riley, OF the Boston
National League club. just two
score Of ambitious athletes are in
cluded in the unwieldly payroll
which the Boston club administra-
ton must start to work to cut
down before Manager Dave Ban
croft steers his assorted charges
Southwark.
In this list Of forty ball players
are included fifteen pitchers, six
catchers, nine infielders and 10 out
fielders, but this doesn't mean that
all this aggregation will be taken
South. AS stated repeatedly since
the close Of last season both OF the
Hub aggregations are in search Of
speed and younger blood.
If any Of the several deals
which Manager Dave Bancroft has
been working for many weeks to
put through there is very apt to
be q cleanup of veteran material.
It is hardly probable that the
squad reporting at st. Petersburg
In February will comprise more
than a dozen pitchers, four catch
ers, seven infielders and six out
fielders and, at any rate, hardly
mtre than thirty athletes will be
called to work out under Bancroft Is
supervision next spring.

two veteran twirlers may be

aGPregations to give Dave Ban

these same players have many
seasons of usefulness left for them
In other outfits-teams that have
enough fast men in the squad to
carry them along.
In the list sent out by Secretary
Riley are several new men from
whom the Braves are expecting
much. Prominent among these are
Burrus and Marriott, both drafted
from the Mobile club, and the for
mer a first sacker two seasons
back with Connie Mack. Burrus
is scheduled to play first base for
Boston, while Marriott can fit in

acquisition.

Ia CROSSE
REVENGE
May Invade United States to
Regain Title Taken by
Syracuse Twelve

SYRACUSE, N. r., Jan. g.
England may invade the United
States next spring to win back
the international la crosse cham
pionship taken by Syracuse in
1923.
The coming OF an AlLEngland
team, composed Of Oxford, Cam
bridge and Stockport stick-wield-
ers, was forecast recently by Head
Coach Laurie D. Cox, Of the
Orange la crosse team.
At the meeting Of the United
States Intercollegiate La Crosse
Association 1t was urged that in
least every two years. This would
mean that 1925 must be the next
period for the American-British
engagements
1t was first thought that Oxford
and Cambridge might combine as
an Oxford team. This, however,
seemed inadvisable, for neither
twelve is too strong. Stockport,
however, holds the North England
championship and Is regarded in
English la crosse circles as SYRIA
cuse is in the United States.
Should this visar Of the English
men be arranged by Coach Cox, it
Is entirely probable that Syracuse
will have just as strong a team to
meet the invaders as that Of last
year, which again won the national
title.
Not many of Iast years regu-
lars were listed. Under the direc-
ton Of Coach Harvey J. Mac
Aloney and Captain w. p. P. Town
send, the freshmen Of last year
have been drilled systematically and
have developed into players of real
The coaches have been
aided by varsity veterans from
time to time.
If the coming of the Englishmen
cannot be achieved, Syracuse will
take steps to effect another trans
Atlantic voyage for the Orange
twelve, Coach Cox said.

SHORTS COACHES
RUcKNELL'S WRESTLERS

Lewisburgh.- Pa. January 81
Walter s. Gus" Shorts, of Scran-
ton, Pa, star tackle OF the 1924
football eleven of Bucknell Univer-
sity, has been appointed coach OF
the Orange and Blue wrestling
team, the athletic council OF the
Lewisburg institution announced
today.
Fifteen promising candidates. al
though with no experience, have
been working out daily in prepara-
ton for the meet with State Col
lege on January 81 at the latter
place. Shorts is the only man on
the squad who is versed in the
wrestling game, and it is certain to
take a year at least before Buoknell
can cope with teams from other
colleges that have sponsored the
snort for the last few years.

came the last two battles. Notre
Dame defeated Stanford, 81 to 10,
at the rose tournament in Pasa-
dena, and California defeated
Pennsylvania at Berkeley, IA to 0.
It was Warner whose Carlisle
eleven whipped California, 2 to 0,
back in 1899, and it was the same
Warner whose Stanford eleven
fought so valiantly against Notre
Dame on January 1, 1925.
Andy Smith, former Pennsylva-
MIA fullback, has done marvels in
California, but much credit must
go to Glenn S. Warner. He took
Carlisle West for the first game,
repeated with Pittsburgh in 1922,
and is now installed as football
mentor at Stanford in 1924.

BY AMERICANS SPEED

ed by Americas speed in some
things. Five minutes after the
Flying Finn had finished making
world records in Madison Square
Garden he was called on by A. A.
u. officials seeking his signature
to record-claiming blanks.
"What are these?'' Nurmi asked
his interpreter and when informed
he chartered in his native tongue
for several minutes.
Z He says" relayed the inter

him with your speed. In Finland
they never get around to filing
record claims until months after q

understand how it is possible to
clean up the whole thing in so

Virginia's scholastic basketball

today when the Alexandria High

Alexandria win meet. Coach Joyce

PIONEER JUNIORS, 1896

short of taking the measure Of the
Business High School Reserves.

lead with a death grip, and at the
end they were camping under a

Business ran circles around the
Pioneer team in the first half, and
they were apparently satisfied to
take things easily. They took them
too easily, and Coach Woodwork

Evans got 10 baskets for Business.
Matthews and Hammerbacker each
got four for the Pioneers.
