BY SIDNEY B. WHIPPLE (Pinch.Hltting for Henry
 McIIeinOrel

New York, Dec. 30--(UP).-The Dizzy Daffodils of Brooklyn will be less Dizzy and Daffy next year, whether or not they play better baseball.
 That, dearly beloved listeners, is adduced from to-days announce ment that there will be no Havana junket for the Brooklyn baseball boys next spring, and that the ex- Daffodils will actually participate in contests against major league clubs instead of sand-lot teams; be- fore the official season opens.
 They were a cheerfully lacka- daisical lot of young fellows, those Robins of last year. Easy-going old Uncle Wilbert Robinson let them do as they chose, come when they pleased and go where they liked. They could sit on the warm sands of Cuba or bathe in the limpid wa ters of the bay. They could enjoy midday siestas and moonlight flestas. Life was just one untroubled song.
 Come spring, and Uncle Wilbert's s boys meandered northward, stop ping now and then to jest Q little with the scrub teams of the fair south's meadow lots. They came into Brooklyn fat and brown and handsome, but Q little wearied with the thought of going to work.
 But now Uncle Wilbert. after 50 years of playing baseball as though 1t were fun instead of baseball, Is hunting on his vast estate at Dover Hall, Georgia. He has servants who call him "Cunnel" instead of "Uncle" and probably he is wish ing he were back in the harness light, trotting harness ti would of Uncle Wilbert there Is a younger man named Max Carey, and he's nobody's uncle.
 So there's going to be no trip to Cuba, no visit to Hawaii, no Medl- terranean or Caribbean cruise in 1882. Just q lot of hard work. And when the hard work of the spring training trip is over, there'll be a harder preseason schedule to meet, without much gentle humor in 1t for the boys that play 1t.
 One feels sorry for Uncle Will bert, the last of his tribe. From now on, business is business. They say that when Uncle Wilbert gave up his post, he grumbled lot.
 Here I been at 1t on'y 50 years" !" he said. "and they told me it would be a permanent job."
 At any rate, they're looking for a new name for the Dizziness boys something that will please the Brooklyn fan, than which there is none whicher. and something that will be characteristic of the new Pep, Vim, vigor Vitality, Gomez Seven Hit -A-Nat chal spirit that MT. Carey seeks to inculcate in his students.
 No prizes are offered, so far as I know, for such a name. In the ab- sence of Col. McLemore. who habitually offers such novelties as patented mechanical combination piccolos and bean-shooters to cus- toners in similar contests, all mo- tice of rewards must be post poned.
 But 1t looks to me like the Busy B's.

This is the lead verse from last nights rythmical oration by Dr J. L. Marks, headmaster of Mt Kls- kiminetas Prep school, and the poet laureate of the American Football Coaches Association. He read the verse and many more be- fore his brother coaches at their annual brown derby banquet last night. He continued: "The wonderful systems of Warner
 and Rock Are open to them like the face of
 0 clock,
 "But systems are useles, they
 haven't chance with Princeton's new battle cry.
 on with the dance!' "The dudes who got Wittmer have
 surely forgotten That Dobie's first year at Cornell
 was so rotten"
 Interpretation
 This, of course, deals mainly with the facts that Princeton's football varsity, 1881, was scarcely sensational, and that Gilmour Do- bic was no large and outstanding bargain when he began his coach- ing duties at Cornell. But stay: Now, this was the year of the
 football disparager, "A year of lament for the gradu-
 ate manager. Performers were chanting their % anthems of hate.- "The manager walled at the size
 of the gate, "The angels were busted, the
 market was down. And so were the backs of the
 Illinois clown. (. "Ah Robert, you've treated your
 friends with disdain "Since Grange made a coach of the
 Duke of Champaign. You've slighted the coaches and
 gone to the coast, "When even Q Dutchman can
 learn how to boast"
 Who They Be
 Dramatic personnae: Robert" played by Robert Bob" Zuppke, head coach of football at the Uni. versity of Illinois; Grange" to be a football star, himself. "A radio broadcaster says what he

 But Bill doesn't like to be told
 that he stinks. with Harvard behind and the

 tered and sore, "He losses Q beauty so straight
 down the alley "That Dartmouth is sunk In last
 minute rally. He's cold as an iceberg, converts

 what man!"
 Dr Marks refers to William J. Bingham, graduate manager of athletics at Harvard University, Cambridge, Mass, and to Ted Hus- ing, leading radio announcer who said Woods play was putrid. Har- yard said mo more Husing broad casts at Cambridge" And Ted net. ted $3,000.000 worth of newspaper advertising.
 Of Chick Meehan's resignation at New York University and the attacks on him there, Marks wrote: "They cried for 0 line and some
 backs that could run, ""They wanted bright lights, and
 Chick harnessed the sun; And now they remind us of some
 little boy "Who thought @ skyrocket an in- nocuous toy"
 Strike Three
 Then Marks continued his com ment with All-American and meth- ods of selecting them as his sub ject:
 Big games have been played since
 these heroes were chosen. ''The mule has been active and So
 has the Trojan. "And many star who the pickers
 would hall Has finished the season with mud

Trails Blazed by Buffalo
Are Highways of Today

Great Falls where several of the
animals were killed for food.
Later when the colonistS first
landed in this country the buff
falo trails in Pennsylvania were
adapted to the use Of the pioneers
and gradually roads came into
being.
Find Trails Blazed
One of the principal highways
from what is now Pittsburgh and
which runs far to the South,
ending in the Carolinas, was orig
inally a trail used by the thou
sands of buffalo that once in
habited the East, scientists say.
When the first railroads we're
laid from East to West the engi-
neers found that in mountainous
country the buffalo trails could
well be utilized and conseqently
the trails were made into road
beds and where q few hundred
years ago the herds moved
slowly to the West crack flyers
now speed from cotst to coast.

F. v. Tompkins of Ludington
Joins Police in Rushing
Serum to Save ChiId's Life

TRENTON, N. j., March 13.
After New York and New Jersey
motorcycle policemen had risked
their lives in speeding a tube Of
serum through the height of traf-
fic to Newark Airport, F. v.
Tompkins, pilot of the Ludington
Line, won an air race against
death when he delivered the serum
40 minutes after it had left the
Willard Parker Hospital, in New
York, and thereby saved the life
Of an infantile paralysis victim
here.
Child Is Saved
Elizabeth Barlow, 5-year-old
daughter of Sumner H. Barlow,
president of E. A. Barlow's Sons
Company here, was sinking. Only
anti-poliomyelitis serum could
save her, DR.. James A. Murphy
found.
He sought unsuccessfully to OBJ
tain it. Then he called the New
York Department of Health. A
motorcycle policeman was sent to
the Willard Parker Hospital. He
picked up the package and roared
through traffic toward the Hol.
land Tunnel.
Race Is PerilOus
With his siren screeching for
the right of way, the policeman
reached the tunnel after narrowly
avoiding several crashes. On the
New Jersey side he was met by a
State trooper, also mounted on a
motorcycle.
Tompkins' plane, bound for
Philadelphia, Washington and
Baltimore, had been held up nine
minutes when the package ar
rived. Straining his motors for
their last squirt of speed. he
reached Trenton, where he made
q special stop.
Filler Known Here
The police carried the serum
without delay to the child's bed
side. 1t was injected, and two
hours later DR.. Murphy announced
that she was out of danger.
Tompkins is we'll known in
Washington, where he has been
flying with the Ludington Lines.

AS the motorist skins over

at the engineering skill which
made such travel possible, but
little does he realize that in

lowly animal.

History Is Studied
In the section of mammals of

of this animal. The earliest
knowledge of the bison came to
historians from the explorations
of an English party, which, in
about 1859, explored the Potomac
River to beyond what is now
Georgetown and then entered
the woods on a hunting trip.
Guided by Indians who, eX
