CHICAGO HAS BRIGHT BASKETBALL PROSPECTS Recent Appointment of Nels Norgren as Head Coach Boosts Prospects (By United Press) Chicago, Dec. 8.With the recent appointment of Nels Norgren as head basketball coach at the University of Chicago, prospects for a title cany a rosy hue. Norgren, a Maroon grad uate, piloted the University of Utah five in 1916 when it won the National A. A. U. championship. I Director Stagg's retirement ,from basketball coaching was expeeted by those on the inside at the Midway institution. Handling football and track, and directing the athletic de partment, with basketball added, was too much forrthe "Grand Old Man." He suggested Norgren, and was not "razzed out" as a result of the poor showing of the team last year. Though the material does not com pare with that left as a heritage to Stagg last season, Coach Norgren ha& a galxy of clever performers around whom to construct a winning combin ation. Captain Crisler, back guard, is lost, as are Bobby Kirkhoff and Vollmer, the two forwards of 1920-1921. The holdovers are Captain "Death" Hal laday, center* McGuire, running guard, and Stahr, sub forward. With this nucleus Norgren has only to find a back guard and a mate for the speedy Stahr. That should be com paratively easy from the list of pos sibilities who have reported A or eany practice. One of these p^sts is al most settled nowthat of back guard, which should fall to Johnny Bryan, a member of the 1918 team. For the other vacant place there are "Chuck" McGuire of football fame, who, however, may be shifted to guard to allow Bryan, a faster man, at forward, Stroheimer, Lewis, Gox and Frida. If Milt Romney, captain-elect of football and star of the Wisconsin and Princeton battles, shows ex pected possibilities at the floor game, Norgren will have a speedy forward to work with Stahr or Bryan. UNOFFICIAL ACCEPTANCE OF'BIGTHREE" PROPOSAL (By "United Press) Washington, Dec. 8.That the Japanese government has "approved the diplomatic proposal contained in the "big three' plannamely the sub stitution of the quadruple agreement for the Anglo-Japanese alliancewas the word aty British headquarters to day.

PAYNE'S LECTURES WELL RECEIVED, MORE WANTED The lectures delivered at Rosby Community Chapel and the Pleasant Valley Consolidated school by Charles A. Payne, lecturer for the' extension division of the University of Minne sota, were greatly enjoyed. The audi ences in both places were very appre ciative and look forward to more of the same class of entertainment. Both lectures were based upon the life and customs of the Hawaiians. It is understood that efforts are being made to secure Mr. Payne, world traveler, for a series of lectures later in the winter.

Michigan'5 Sundt, Wisconsin Slater, the 'giant negro All experts concede Slater is the greatest tackle who ever trod a west ern gridiron. Knute Rochne, coach of Notre Dame, gave Slater credit for the only defeat the South Bend team has met in three years. Rockne said he put four men playing against Slater alone and yet the giant negro made such holes the stiff Notre Dame line that Locke went through for long gains, often standing up straight. Bob Zuppke, coach of Illinois had the same experience when Iowa con quered his team. Four other men on the Iowa team have established enviable recoids partly through the fact that they played behind, around or next to Slater. Aubrey Devine, tHe West's greatest quarterback since Eckersall, and this year's leading point scorer, need inereiy to step to the left and behind his dusky tackle, pull his triple threat of running around Beldmg's end (playing next to and supported by Slatex) kicking or passing to Beld ing or send his great battering ram, Locke, through the hole Slater in variably opens.

Devine at quar ter, Belding at left end, and Slater at left tackle. Locke is undoubtedly one of the greatest plunging fullback? ever de veloped the West. He^hits the line like a Longman or a Bezdck. I With two halfbacks needed to fill the back field, the West is without an outstanding back for 1921. Williams of Wisconsin would be an ideal shifty, sneedy halfback to circle the Belding Slater end. Other halfs worthy of mention are Steketee of Michigan Walquist of Illinois, who beat Ohio out of a tie with Iowa in the championship race Elliott of Wisconsin Cole of Chicago, and Peden of Illinois.

Romrtey of Chicago, whose speed and well-trained toe, beat Princeton and Wisconsin, is given quaiter on the second team and Workman of Ohio on the third. I The remaining end must go to Capt.

McGuire, the Chicago tackle, who outplayed Keck of Princeton, rates the other iekle opposite the mighty Slater, though Brader of W.sconsin and Huffman of Ohio are nearly equal to the Chicago captain Prixley of Ohio is head and shoul ders above all other western guards, but Dunne of Michigan, Trott of Ohio, Redmon of Chicago, McCaw of Indiana ase all towers of strength to their respective teams. Dunne is picked because of the gameness and fighting spirit shown by the team which he captained. I There is" little to choose between line from breaking through and smashing plays before they could get started. On defense we would have Devine back uu the line in the fullback posi tion. He can size up an opponent's play quickly and is a vicious tackier. Williams would play back as the last secondaiy defense man, with Thomas and Locke on the flanks to break up the open tfame. Belding and Myeis would permit few plays around the ends to pet away from them, driving all attacks toward the solid center. Bunge of Wisconsin and Vick of Michigan at center. A late start on the part of Vick gives the place to the Wisconsin man. Thus we lave the offensive. 4.
