KANSAS CITY, Kas, March 31. (P)-Margaret Botteron, 19-year-old Kansas City, Kas., girl believes there is something facinating about para chute jumping. She doesn't know what it is although she has made seven jumps from airplanes just for the thrill.
 T really don't know how I came to make my first jump. I just did that's all," she says.
 T went over to Pierce field and saw a man there with a parachute on his back and decided I wanted to jump too. I had never been up in the air so I took stunt ride. When I came down I asked to go up again and jump. There really isn't any sensation to it, but it does fasinate me-"

On the roads own motion, the COM

certain the cause of the receivership
at the time the road was placed in the
hands of a receiver. Briefs are to be
submitted by interested parties before

Principal points in the brief filed
today include:
1.-THE condition under which the
bankruptcy took place was a continued
Aaek of net earnings, sufficient Sto
meet interest charges Or to create the
credit necessary to impending funding
operations.
/ ''Examination of the earnings and
expenses of the roads in the north
western region and comparison with
other roads in the western district
shows that if the rate structure in
that region were equalized with the
rest of the western district no bank
ruptcy would have come to the st.

THE labor pay increases and the

TEAM STARTS
SLOWLY But.
GAINS SPEED

Starting slowly and gradually gain
ing IN speed and class, the Douglas
Bulldogs completely upset the dope
by trimming the strong Tucson team
Friday night by the score of IA to
Il. The entire Doulgas team played
strong, consistent game. See1ey,
Causey and Denno scored all the
points for Douglas.
Tucson got away to a 6-to-1 lead
in the first quarter, before the Doug
las players struck their stride. Dur
ing the second quarter the Bulldogs
were coming with rush, the half
ending g. to 6 in favor .of Tucson.
The third quarter ended with the
two teams tied, 10-1O and in the
middle of the last quarter seeley
scored basket that paved the way
to victory.
The Douglas team did not use a
single substitute, the same five men
going through the entire game. See
ley's tossing was one of the out
standing features, although Pratt
and Cary did some fine work in the
guard positions. Potter and the Caid
brothers did the best work for Tue
son.
The Douglas players. under the
leadership of Coach "Fuzzy" Warren,
were playing a team coached by their
former leader, c. o. Van Antwerp,
who recently left Douglas to accept
the position of physical director OF
the Tucson high school. Van Ant
werp, who was surprised at the out
come of the game and the unexpected
strength of the Douglas team, con-
graduated Coach Warren and his
players on their victory
The Tucson team, rated considers
ably stronger than Douglas, had the
added advantage of playing on their
home floor, but faster, ADLER work
on the part of the Douglas players
turned the tide. The team left Tue
son Saturday morning for Nogales,
where they will meet the Nogales
high school tonight. The team is
accompanied by Principal ]. E. Carl

Athletes Are Fickle

''The huddle in football has proved
conclusively that men are just as
tickle as women remarked a famous
football coach at the recent New
( York gathering.
The tardy manner in which many
of the teams using the .huddle put
the ball into play" said the coach
with a smile, was due to the fact
thai some of the boys couldn't make
up their minds whether to forward
pass, run the ends or buck the line.
THE huddle gives too many cooks
chance to express an opinion and
some of them haven't any"
No doubt the coach is trifle
unkind and probably doesn't mean
all he said, but it looks as if he
had given one good reason for the
wasted time that is part of the
huddle with most teams.

CHICAGO, Jan. Z Decentralization
Of. the 1917 baseball scandal ended
with surprising suddenness tonight
after two days of hearings.
Kenesaw Mountain Lands, $65,OOo
a year commissioner of baseball,
who aeter as judge, jury and in
quisitor in the dramatic trial. an
nounced he would give his decision
involving the fate of some of the
greatest stars in the game at 10
o'clock next Wednesday morning.
If found guilty these players will
be banished from organized baseball
as were their accusers, Swede Ris-
berg and Chick Gandil, cast out soL
the game for their connection with
the crooked worlds series of 1919
Risberg charged, and Gandil today
substantiated his story, that, the
White Sox pooled .$45 apiece to pay
the Tigers for ''sloughing" the four
game series to the White Sox, Sep
tember and 8, 1917, so the White
Sox could edge out Boston in the.
race for the American league pen
nant.
Branding these charges as ''abso-
lutte lies" 81 players of the past and
present members. of those teams, de-
clared the pool was a present for the
Tiger victories, over. Boston. In sup?
port of this 3Bs5l James, the Detroit
pitcher who received the money from
the Sox-Risperg, and Gandil-testl-
fled they told him it was for the
Tigers good work in beating Bos-e
ton ga
James denied vigorously. Gand1 $
story that they two had framed the
1917 Labor day series. ~.
According, to James, Gandil made
him an offer OF, $500, for each De-
troit pitcher who would beat Ros
ton, and nothing was said about the
Tigers tossing games to the White
Sox.
Bob Hasbrook, a former Sox I'M
fielder, startled the audience with
his testimony that the Sox pool was
discussed at the Boston ball park,
point that had never been mentioned
by any previous witness Lands
called on each CT the former SoN
and each denied it.. Hasbrook was
excluded from the meeting, he said :
but Gandil told him a pool was be-
&ng spoken of as a present for the
Detroit pitchers.
Lands left this apparent contra
diction unsolved, when he brought
his inquiry to a sudden close.
James, taking the witness chair,
told a story that tailed generally
with that of RI sberg and Gandil
about the passing of the money. He
said Gandil and Risberg came to him
III the Aldne hotel, in Philadelphia,
and handed him $3.50.
I The exact amount of the SoX pool
and it's distribution, however. never
was satisfactorily explained to the
commissioner.
Risberg testified it was around
$1,1OO. Gandil said it was between
$500 and $1,000 and James SAID he
received $3.50
In his accounting of its distribu,
tion James fell about $50 short be
cause he could not remember all the
players to whom he gave money.
Lands read an exchange of tele-
grams with Hughey Jennings, man
ager of the Tigers in 1917.
Jennings said he was too sick to
come and knew nothing of the 1917
series that was questionable, nor o!
the SoX gift.
Gandil was the first of the 81
players to present his expense ac-
count to Lands and he filed one OF
S278.12, including $50 for his ten-day
absence from his plumbing job: in
New Mexico. 4a4

Milk Fed Teams 4. +. .

Fame of any kind gained through
unusual methods, invariably leaves
a certain amount of worry in its
wake.
While it probably played only a
very minor part in the great season
enjoyed by the unbeaten Brown foot
ball team, the fact was much adj
vertised that drinking a pint Of
milk after each practice was mat
ter of routine insisted upon by Coach
'Tuss" McLaughry.
The milk diet was regarded merely
as a good story until Brown had
beaten Yale, Dartmouth and Harvard.
Against the first two teams not a
single substitution was made. M
At the stage of the season the
pint of-1nill1 theory of the Brown
coach began to be a source Of
much worry to him.
