 The Blackbirds' long string of victories was no help when it came to lining up an interesting sched- ule for this season. In many cases teams in their own backyard plead ed no open dates when approach ed, so that Long Island had to seek engagements with teams from out lying districts. Perhaps it was for the best, for the schedule, which includes Stanford, Tennessee and Duquesne, will give the quintet several opportunities to match it's skill against the style of play em- ployed in other sections Of the country.

U. WASHINGTON HOOP SEASON
 OPENS DEC. 21
Varsity Five Meets Michi- gan, Then Goes South
 to Los Angeles

SEATTLE, Dec 15.-Attempting to equal the brilliant record set by last years basketball team, the University of Washington varsity hoopmen will open their intercol- legiate competition in three-game series against the University of Michigan, December 2l, g and 23, in Seattle.
 Only three men are missing this year from the 1886 team that won the Northwest championship, and finished highest among the college lives in the Olympic Games try outs at New York.
 The Michigan series is just a starter, however. for Coach Hec Edmundson has lined up the tough est preseason schedule in history.
 Following the Michigan games, the team will journey to Los An geles, where they play one game with the Hollywood Universals, win ne:s of last years Olympic Games tryouts in New York The pre-sea- son games will be concluded with an elimination tournament against Ohio State, Southern California and University of California at Los An geles, which will also be held in Los Angeles.
 The first team lineup, at pres ent, is composed of Dick Voelker, center Chuck Wagner and Ed Lov- erich, forwards, and Jack Cannon and Bob Egge, guards. Of this team, all are veterans except Voelk- CT, a sophomore up from last years frosh squad.
 Wagner was moved to center in an early experiment., but Coac h Edmundson has decided that the all-C Coast forward will be of more value at forward.
 Voelker and Cannon are being 1 pressed hard for their jobs by an ambitious group including Jack Lowe, George Ziegenfuss, Bob Reese, Walt Kastner, Pat Dorsey, Hunt Paterson, and Ross Werner.

DEM0LAYS AND DOUGLAS MEET
 IN TITLE MIX
First Round Championship Hangs on Outcome of
 I'onight's Tilt

With the first round title at stake, the Douglas Eagles and Ju- neau DeMolay City League quin- tets meet this evening in the first of two basketball games at the High School Gym.
 Douglas has the inside track for the first round honors and all the folk from across the Channel will be on deck to see their lads tangle with the rival lodgemen for a clear right to the top spot. If Douglas wins tonight, they will be first round champs with no more argu- ment, but a DeMolay victory will tie the first half race into a tight knot with both teams having one loss and the rest wins.
 The Purple and Gold cagers would appear to have an edge on the Eagles, if they are in top form, but, the DeN1olsys have performed in a rather spotty manner this sea- son, and are quite likely to be having one of their bad nights. On the ether hand, Douglas, though not. flashy, has been consistent. and can always be figured on for it's full quota of points tone rather be- fuddled mix with the Juneau High team excepted.
 Claude Erskine is a scoring threat that fully matches the Purple and Gold ace, Kinky Bayers. The other DeMolays forwards, while outranged by the Douglas front men, have a large measure more of speed, but, though usually sharpshooters with the casaba, are thrown off stride by close checking. And, close check ing can be depended upon from the Eagle guards.
 The DeMolays depend rather on their offense than their defense, most of their goal guarding being done by one man, Ed Garnick, but a one-man defense needs plenty of points on his side to win out-so, the outcome and the title appears to rest on just how well the De- Molay forwards do their work.
 Closing the pre- Christmas basket oall season-unless the DeMoiays win to force a playoff contest-is the exhibition fracas between the
 
 Juneau High Crimson Bears and the Graves Clothiers, that follows the league game.
 The Prepsters have been wading right through the league ranks in the last couple of games, and would appear to have an even chance to carry off mess of Graves scalps tonight On top of the loss of their speedball forward combina- tion, Lawson and OMalley, the Gravesmen have been further hit by the southward sailing Of their center and play promoter Bill Robinson, and may be lost for a game or two.

But Merv Sides, lead- ing the opposing Boston team garnered the second high total, 555, and had sufficient able support from Mrs. Harry Sperling, who was high for the women with 511 to send Princeton down to a three game defeat, despite Cleveland's s grand effort.
 In the intermediate match, Duke captured a ma ajority of the games from Washington, and in the final, Fry Hagerup's second high single game, 213, was enough to turn the tide of victory to Oregon in the deciding engagement against Rich mond

Drop of Franc Blow to Tahiti;
 Prices on Rise

PAPEETE, Tahiti, Dec. 15.-Tahi- tis depression prosperity" has come to an end with the deyalua- ion of the franc.
 For years past favorable ex- change has made commodity prices low. while the islands principal export. copra, enjoyed premium voted by the French government. Added to this was an influx of tourists that brought about a mod est building boom.
 Devaluation of the franc has in- creased the cost of living 40 per cent, and with it came discontinu- ance of passenger service by the one direct line to America and Australia So stringent are condi- tions that authorities have had to step in to prevent profiteering.
 Adding to the problem is the large number of natives who are now landless. having forsaken their tribal homes when there were plen- ty of jobs to be had in town.

 Long Island started out with a small victory string last year, but no one expected them to go through the season without defeat because the team did not seem to rate With the more powerful aggregations along the Atlantic seaboard.
 It was not big team physically, but it was composed of band of players who had played together for years. They had speed and the long association gave them team play that proved. hard for bigger opponents to match. Their mentor, Coach Clair Bee, is one of the clev- crest tutors in the game. He gets the most out of the material which reports to him each season, usual ly more than most coaches could get. The school is in no position to do any wholesale recruiting, so the material is hardly better than the average.
 Most of the lads who go out for the court game at Long Island are from metropolitan schools. Occa- sionally a candidate from New Jersey reports, but that is excep- tional Only Art Hillhouse and Myron Sewitch of the present squad come from outside Greater New York.

-BH PAP'

A year ago New York University boasted a big, fast-breaking bas- ketball team of veterans who were breezing along to the heights. There didn't seem to be anything in the college ranks capable of stopping them. N. Y. us host of followers envisioned a path to the Olympic Games in Berlin. But as the season wore on and the string of victories heightened the strain grew too great and along came the inevit- able upset. After that, most every one took pot-shots at Coach How ard Cams aggregation.
 This year the situation is re- versed. To hear Coach Cam tell it, one wonders if he has five men to send out on the court at one time. It's not quite as bad as all that. But bad enough.
 Only two regulars from the 1885, 36 team are back. Graduation re- moved Willie Rubenstein, Leonard Maidman and Trying (King Kong)

Klein from the ranks. The veterans around, whom Cam must build are Capt Milton Schulman, guard, and Irving Terjesen, center. Each has had two years of varsity experi- ence.
 There is a generous sprinkling of more-or less experienced reserves in the squad from which Cam must fashion his team. Among these is Irwin Witty, a speedy youth who, at times, has given promise of greatness. Two members of last years undefeated freshman team, Dan Dowd and Dave Little field, are seeking places on the varsity. The team, as it shapes up, is not as big as last years five, but boasts it's share of speed.
 The Violets will operate along the same lines as in the past, em- ploying a fast-breaking attack with emphasis on spot passing and set shooting. Coach Cam intends to stick to the man-to-man style of defense. The zone defense never has caught his fancy.
