ranged in due and proper proportion.
Stanford, under Warner, turned in

BASKET BALL BOOM

New Rules Help.

n IEw YORK. March 4,-Basket
M ball is rip roaring in the
Y Middle West. They are having
better season out there in
the midlands than they had last year.
Consider this. you pessimists and
prophets OF jeremiah who have been
writing of intercollegiate athletics as

The above pleasing information comes
from Maj. John L. Griffith, commits
sioner Of athletics of the Western Con-
ference. who assigns to this condition
a theory that the new rules have
speeded up the game. This writer has
cited that fact as a reason for the
satisfactory season they are having in
the East
Maj. Gritith believes. too, that
contributing fact is an even distribu-
ton Of strength among most of the
quintets.
"A at various games as given by the
commissioner point to gratifying
financial returns. The Iowa Michigan
game at Iowa City drew $500; 5000
spectators attended the Northwestern
Illinois game at Urbana; some 5000
enthusiasts paid to see the Purdue and
Wisconsin contests at Northwestern.
Notre Dame has had four sell-out
games at South Bend with 5000 spec
tators, and the illinois, Michigan setto
attracted $500 partisans. Crowds in
the Ohio State field house at basket
ball games have exceeded those of last
year at every contest held thus far.

but Kiki Cuyler singled. Babe Herman
walked, filling the bases, and then "Or

ing English and Cuyler. H. Taylor's
sharp single brought in Babe Herman.
Pat Malone blanked the Giants for

traditions the old game can show. For
one thing. they have never lost a world

a fine base runner. he stands as one Of

Fleeting Fame.
In looking over selections for the
1888 Ryder Cup golf team. . team
picked from the 10 best home-bre6s,
one sees again the wil-o'-the-wisp as
pect that belongs to sporting fame.
Less than five years ago I saw
Johnny Farrell finish with four brides
IN the morning round and two birdies
in the final stretch to beat Bobby Jones
by a stroke in the most famous Of all
play-offs for the United States open.
They had tied at 70 holes before
starting the extra grind of 36 more.
Standing on the 35th tee. Farrell was
leading Jones by stroke. Johnny
planted his tee shot in the rough and
Bob pulled OF q great tee shot.
Then, from the rough, Farrell almost
holed his second shot and Jones had
to sink q 25-footer for . half in 3.
Johnny had to drop curling s-foot
putt to get his half on the last green,
as Jones was stone dead in on a par
hole.
the Ryder Cup team OF 1888.
Then there is Bill Burke.
Two years ago I saw Burke win one
Of the most dramatic opens ever played.
At the end of 70 holes he had the
title packed away-until George Won
Elm dropped a 12-foot putt to tie
up the program.
After another all day scrap they were
still in a hard knot. On the second
extra day Burke won by the slim mar
gin Of one stroke in the most extended
contest golf has ever known.
That was the Inverness carnival
where Won Elm tied up the show twice
in succession by remarkable brides on
the final green.
Bill Burke made q great competitive
showing in that championship-and 1t
all happened only two years ago. Yet
the open champion Of 1881 is of the
Ryder Cup list, which is further proof
of the dizzy rapidity involved in an
ascent and a descent.
Here today-forgotten tomorrow.
And yet the Ryder Cup team named
is one of the best selections we have
seen N some time. 1t has given full
credit to the accomplishments of 1882
and 1888. which happen to be the
years that count just at this spot.
