n. ball, Los Angeles, 1892!
With 100000 persons
in 80 nations playing
basket ball there appears to be no
reason why the game should not
have a place on the Olympic pro-
gram.
And l, as chairman Of the Olympic
committee of the National Basket Bail
coaches Association, am now negotiat-
ing with international athletic leaders
about including basket ball in the
schedule at the 1882 Olympic at Los
Angeles. So far I have received much
encouragement. 4.s
THEY now are playing basket ball

Philippine Islands, China, Persia,
Czechoslovakia, Turkey, Greece, Mexico,
Canada. Poland, Russia, Germany,
England and practically all of the
south American countries.
With such growing interest in
basket ball its place on the Olympic
calendar will be sure to come
Some OF the foreign countries had
their introduction to the game almost
simultaneous with the inventors first
draft The first printed copy of the
basket ball rules appeared in the Tri-
angle, the International Y. M. @. A.
1892.
At this time DR.. James Naismith. the
inventor Of basket ball, and DR.. Luther
Gul1ck were co-editors of the Triangle.
and on account Of lack of funds for
printing they deemed it both wise and
expedient to get the rules in printed
form in this way.
Because of this and because Of its
origin at Springfield, Mass, a distribute
ing point for world Y. M. C. A. secre-
taries, basket ball has spread uniformly
to all nations of the globe.
THESE national pioneers of basket
L ball planted the game in foreign
lands in the following years:
India. Duncan Patton, 1894; France.
Emil Thies, 1895; Japan, Ishakawa,
1900; Persia, c. Merck 1901; China.
Robert Galley. 1904; Mexico, Richard
Williamson, 1904; Turkey, Chester
Tobin, 1910; Greece, Louise Riess, 1912:
Italy. Frances neighbor. copied the
game from her in the eos; our United
States soldiers gave the game To the
Philippine Islands in, 1900.
Canada, England. Russia and Poland
have emphasized the game since the
World War. The American Army of
Occupation gave this indoor game to
the German populace. It fits in adj
mirably with their new national play
program.

oficial's name was in his place and he
appeared no more in white Knockers

umpires do who know their business.
Dave Fultz turned his back on foot
ball just as he left base ball nat rs
years ago when he was near the top
of his game. The answer then and Is
years later was the same-the law. No
injunction was issued against the crack
player and oficial, but he Is q lawyer

their feet on many occasions. He
has plenty of power in reserve, no
matter how his head hobs UP and
down or rolls about. Don't be fooled
into thinking that he is "all in" be-
cause he looks that way-the big
heart and great stride of this likable
lad often carry him ahead at a ter
rife pace when he really feels ready
to drop. Especially in the final two
laps of a race does this latent power
show itself. Leo's last-minute ''kick"
is a sight to behold.

Instead of spending time and money hunting for an inexpensive but nice little something to send a home maker this Christmas why not make her set of gay, useful little kitchen holders?
 If you happen to have small board you can do the gift up brown by using it for a rack, painted in her kitchens colors, with a. flower or modernistic motif in contrasting color in the center. To this attach three brass hooks and sew a brass ring in one corner of three holders.
 To make the holders. cut squares of flannel or old woolen and en- close them in neat square envelopes of cretonne, gingham, chambray, chintz or oil cloth. If you use the last, you can paint on a flower de- sign, like the one on the rack. If you use plain material, either en- broider a cheery little design of ap- plique on little flower.
