.atching flowers, passed about by
the hostess TO the men and women,
secures partners for the first dance.
Filling May Baskets.
Players in this game use the flowers
gathered in the flower contest, for
each player requires but six. A bas-
ket is suspended in q doorway. A
flower procession is formed and as
each player gets to a designated spot
before the basket and at some little
distance from it he is permitted to
halt and throw one flower. If it falls
into the basket, his flower score card
is credited with one mark, given by
the hostess, who stands near.
There should be six rounds for a
small party, fewer for a large one.
The procession should not march to
the basket, but by it, at a good dis
tance. The person whose score is
highest gets a floral prize. A little
basket of flowers would be just the
thing.
Matching score cards by flowers or
color of them, but two being identical,
secures partners for the next dance.
May Flower Menu.
An attractive May flower and May
basket supper menu is as follows:

Raoish Blossoms.

BALL

DR.. James Naismith invented
basket ball at the Springfield Col
lege in 1891, but those who first
played it would never recognize
the original article in the game of
today. The first thing they would
note would be the lack of floor
filled with mob of players, for
the first game called for 80 to a
side. Today five are on a side.
What a whirlpool of humanity
the first game must have been with
60 players milling around the floor.
To start the game, the two teams
were lined up at opposite ends Of
the court and the referee tossed
the ball into the center from the
SidelineS, the two sides rushing for
1t. Cane rushes and class fights,
now long since legislated against in
most educational institutions. must
have taken a back seat when bas-

HOPPE AND SCHAEFER
IN SIDE-BET MATCH

NEW YORK, February IA R.-
Willie Hoppe, who successfully de-
Tended his 1872 balkline billiard
championship against Welker Cochran
in Boston last week, rested today for
his special 5000 point 1871 match with
Jake Schaefer. which opens here to-
morrow.
Although Schaefer defeated Hoppe
for the 1871 title last year, both play
ers have agreed that the 1871 crown
shall not be at stake
The sponsors of the match con-
tended that Hoppe had forfeited his
title by failure to defend it for ten
years prior to meeting Schaefer The
men had signed for a championship
match, but changed the articles and
substituted a $1,000 side bet The
match will be played in 10 blocks of
300 points each. -f ---
Hoppe brought his title defense
against Cochran to a close Saturday
night with a decisive margin Of 1,50O
to 1875.

Is little nervousness felt as each
day passes, and rightly SO, because
it is something that local fishermen
have been advocating and working
for for years.
Representative Zihlman, chairman
of the House District committee, and
Representative Manlove both are out
Of town over the week end. and both
are expected back tomorrow
AS Representative Manlove ex-
planned in presenting the bill in the
House, 1t is a step in a general move
ment that Is progressing throughout
the entire land. In New York State
it is understood that there is a law
preventing the sale of any game fish,
and other States are slowly taking
up the question Of preserving their
game fish. The anglers of Washing
ton want the Nations Capital to be
among the first cities in the country
to have a bass law prohibiting their
sale.
The fight Of the District anglers to
have this bill now before Congress
passed is but another step toward sur
rounding the bass family with the
proper protection needed If they are
game fish. Edward C. Kemper. who
has been fighting for years for just
such legislation as is now about to
materialiZe, and who is also chairman
OF the bass protection committee OF
the local chapter of the Izaak Walton
League of America, has personally
written letters to many Maryland and
Virginia sportsmen. including the con-
servation departments, the league
chapters and various other organiza.

can get out their fishing tackle and
