assert it will be one of the great
est varsity combinations in the
schools history next season.
Two former Eastern High School
luminaries play the forward posi-
tionS.
Nolan, BaSSin
They are Tommy Nolan and
Harry Basin, both of whom were
unanimous all-high selections here
last year. Buddy Nau and Car
roll Shore, former Central High
stars, hold down the back court
while Tom Keating, formerly Of
Georgetown Prep, and Mario Gre
gorio, teammate of Nau and Shore
at Central alSt season, are
firSt-String reserves. Petrosky
Barabas, centers, and Kurtyhc
and Franks, guards, comprise the
rest Of the lineup.
There's an interesting angle
about this team. So many tai
ented players are around that it's
difficult to choose the best com
bination to start. For this rea
son Tom Keating and Mario Gre
gorio seldom are sent into actor
at the opening whistle though
both are stellar performers
Both must wait until the first op
portunity arises for their appear
ances. It can be said these ap
pearances are quite often.
Tech VS.. Eastern
A very important game in the
interhigh school race takes the
spotlight today in the Roosevelt
High gymnasium at $3.50 p. m
when the Tech and Eastern fiveE
meet.
Tech will enter the fray ont
game behind Eastern for the lead
ership of the league. Its hopes
will be to overhaul the Lincoln
Parkers for that leadership.
The team defeated Central
30-16, Tuesday to make an i'm
pressive comeback in the series
The week before it lost unexpect
edly to Western, 22-19. Its
chances Of defeating Eastern are
good in that the latter has failed
to look as strong as it's series
record indicates. In all, it will
be a battle between Reds Daily
and Josh Billings, Tech aces, and
Levelle Dean and Gay Edelin,
Eastern sharpshooterS.
Almost as important will be

DATES LISTED
BY BODY

NEW YORK, Jan. 25.-Wash-
ington's own Presidents Cup Re
gatta, major speed boat attraction
of the Capitol's season, has been
assigned the dates of September
% and 20 by the American Power
Boat Association.
The assignment of dates was
made at yesterdays meeting of
the A. P. B. A.
The Presidents Cup Regatta
now rates of national Importance.
The feature event on the two
day program is the 45-mile con-
test between Gold Cup boats.
Last year this event was won by
the perennial favorite, George
Reis' Ell Logarto.
Since the restriction on Gold
Cup craft has been lifted and rules
now permit inclusion in the race
of 12-liter power boats, it is ex-
pected that the field for next
years Gold Cup event in Washing
ton will be much larger than it
ever has been before.
The speed boat campaign will
open this year at Jacksonville,
Fla, on February 9 and 10 and
will close at Baltimore, September
10 to 81. The first seven meets
of the season will take place in
Florida.
The better known events include
the Albany-New York marathon,
May 12; the Trenton-P Philadelphia
outboard shuttle races, May Is;
the National Intercollegiate cham
pionships, Worcester, Mass, June
20 and 80; Gold Cup champion
ships, Bolton Landing, N. Y, July

The bout is scheduled for 10
rounds. Teddy Yarosz, current
titleholder, will have to box the
winner, if he expects to make
some money. Dundee, a former
champion, staged a remarkable
comeback, so to speak, by stop
ping short Paul Pirrone's winning
streak. The latter had beaten and
knocked out Mickey Walker, and
was going somewhere until he met
up with Dundee. Vince trounced
him to queens taste.

Rule 3 of the major league
rules governing contracts says:
"NO club shall make a con-
tract different from the uni
form contract or a contract con-
tanning nOn.reServe clause ex-
cept with the written approval
of the Advisory Council. -"
BINDS BOTH PARTIES
There follows some text in the
rules showing what shall be in
cluded in the contract. But the
agreement must bind both par
ties, with duties and remunera-
ton set forth.
In the case of the Boston Red
SoX, then, either the club or the
player must gamble. Grove must
take a chance on producing
more for less money, or per-
haps more for more money than
he received in 1884. Or Yawkey
must take the stand that Grove
will come back, or that he won't
come back. If the rules of base
ball hlean anything, there can
be no compromise.
Lands, of course will know
all about the final agreement as
between YaWkey and his left
handed pitcher. Copies of all
contracts are sent to the office
of the President of the Ameri-
can League, and also to the COM
missioner for filing. If the boys
really want to check up, they
will have little trouble.
Grove thinks he will come
back and be a consistent winner
for the Red Sox next year. May.
be he will, and maybe he won't.
If his arm returns to it's former
power, the Red Sox will win a
lot of ball games that went the
other way last year. With Grove
effective last year they would
have finished third handily
enough.
Best Laugh of Week
Far be it from this reporter
to sneer at the efforts OF any Of
the groan and grunt tribe to
get their names in the news
columns, but honestly, the best
laugh I've had in a week came
via Philly. It seems that Ernie
Dusek, of the Nebraska DusekS,
is about to engage Dan O'Ma-
honey, the Irish heavyweight.
The latter is master of hold
they call "the Irish whip. 1t
cracks the bones, they say.
Dusek, and here's the laugh,
says the hold is a foul. won

wrestlers would last with any
referee who did not shut his

every rule in the wrestling code
that we see in every so called
bout. There is no wrestling any
more as old masters of the mat
game knew the sport. Troupes
of organized showmen tour the
country waxing wealthy on the

The slapping and hitting and
all that hokum that goes with
wrestling now is a joke. It Is

So, what must be the feeling

Griff Is Bitten
The other Miami item which
interests me is Clark Griffith's
wish for a winter baseball loop
in Florida to keep budding
young ball players brushing up
on the game during the off.
season in the North, and thereby
ripen them for major league
utility a year or two earlier than
they would normally have
reached major league form.
For such a purpose as Griff
defines, a winter league in
Florida would be a boon to the
business he represents, develop
ing young players with a
rapidity almost essential to the
life of the game in view Of the
comparative lack of college and
amateur baseball lure to young
American males.
But if Griff thinks visitors to
or natives of Florida are going
to desert the race tracks and
bathing beaches to see baseball
in the afternoon, or dog tracks
and night clubs to see it of
nights, then he doesn't know his
Florida as well as he should.
His idea is good, but what is
he going to substitute for spec.

Central Figures to Give

who wear the light blue and white.

stays listed to return, are likely to

as easy next Winter as 1t was this
season.
Central, with all except one Of It's
first -stringers listed to be available
again, now looms likely to give Eastern
the most argument year hence.
Both Western and Tech, which offered
the Lincoln Park team most Of the
rather unimpressive opposition it re-
ceived this year, are to lose every 1885
regular by graduation. Roosevelt may
better considerably its record in the
series just past. when it finished in
the cellar without scoring a win. but
the outlook for the Ruff Riders is none
too easy.

them in handy style, will have missing
