Pug managed to get near the Irish

you. Did you have a hard time?"
"Yess," replied the Irishman, "a
divil of a time. All the rest wanted

LVER|NES MAKE
COURT COMEBACK
Surprise Defeat of Purdue
Makes Michigan Big Ten
Title Prospect.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
~HICAGO, January 7.-Suspicions
of Big Ten basket ball fans
have been verified-Michigan
has title contender again.
Led by a Hoosier sophomore, Ray
mond Altenhof OF Gary, the Wolverines
opened their 1881 championship drive
at Ann Arbor last night by turning
back Purdue, defending title holder,
90 to %, in brilliant battle.
While the champions attempted to
bottle up Norman Daniels, Michigan's
widely advertised scoring ace, Altenhof
shattered their defense by scoring four
field goals and three free throws for
IL points. Fast, alert and rangy, the
blond Hoosier was all over the floor
and of it for points when Purdue
guards shot after Daniels. Then when
the defense frightened around him, AL
tenhof and his mates fed the leather
to Daniels, who came through with
three field goals and as many more
charity losses for nine big points.
Johnny Wooden, Purdues running
guard and ace, broke through the Mich
igan defense for three field goals and
helped the BoilermakeTs draw up to
within two points of a tie with but
three minutes to play, only to fail dur
ing an all-Michigan finish.
Purdue's defeat encouraged the other
Big Ten teams who failed to stop the
Boilermakers during their romp last
season.

HARVARD'S REPORT
HITS BUTLER PLAN
Foot Ball Income Needed to
Save Crimson From
Big Sports Def:
BY LAWRENCE PERRY.

Y VARVARD's annual report of ath-
- letic finances for the fiscal
year ending June, 1880, comes
as rather an interesting COM
mentary upon DR.. Nicholas Murray
Buffers suggestion that gate receipts
be eliminated and the support of var
sity and intramural teams devolve upon
the alumni.
The point has been raised as to how
the alumni would meet such a condition
were it actually promulgated and put
into effect. A glance at Harvard's
statistics suggests that they would howl
long and loudly-unleSS, certainly, the
economic situation in this country took
some such upward bound as the channels
takes when he hears the report of an
alpine hunters rifle.
Requires Big Outlay.
1t requires exactly $845, 1915 to run
Harvard's sport system for IL months.
Crew cost $37,914.82; the sport earned
$3,6s1.07. Base ball caused an outlay
of $29,08935 and earned $20,10r11.
Track cost $48,96613, and earned 500
610.47 Hockey cost $1S,485.16; its
earnings were $14,091.19.
Minor sports and the department OF
physical education cost $126, 624.11, and
there was no income. Maintenance and
operation of athletic grounds and equip
ment cost $50 ,684.43. An expenditure
Of $226,57982 was made in behalf of
permanent improvements to grounds
and buildings. Administration and
other expenses amounted to $141 1873. Sc.
Foot ball, the only productive sport,
earned $693, 713.10 and cost $126, 624.11.
This Might Cause Howl.
So, with foot ball receipts ditched,
Harvard alumni would have had to raise
1851, 051.33 for the support of that game
in addition to sums necessary for the
conduct of other sports named above,
as well as sums relating to grounds,
new buildings, maintenance and the
like.
Ohio Wesleyan, Loyola of Chicago
and one or two other educational in
situations have dropped foot ball, but
in the case of colleges such as Harvard,
Yale, Princeton, Western Conference,
Pacific Coast Conference and other
seats of learning, where athletics are
carried on on huge scale, one hears
not even whisper about dropping foot
ball nor any talk about letting the
alumni pay the freight.
