placing Chick Fewster, the most

is an infielder. He is at his best at

base he ought to be played. But
with Baker and his bat back Hiiggins
no doubt will incline toward the policy
of safety first and will give the veteran
the hot corner.
I Fewster will play either the out

I been getting any stronger either as a

Because of the ravages that the
world war made in the ranks of Eng
land's youth, Oxford and Cambridge
will send a combined team to rep
resent . their country to compete
I against the best college teams of the
j United States. They have chosen
Ihe two-mile relay as the event in
! jv.hi.ch they will compete, and they
f will undoubtedly be a very hard nut

, bridge-Oxford cross country race,
t making a new record, "in spite of the
fact that frequently during the race
j he dropped back 60 or 70 yards to
j urge on his mates. He won with
j ridiculous ease and to the astonish-
ment of the ,crowd established a
new record for the course. The rc
j lay management will query' the va-
iious American colleges at once for
j entries for the thrcc-mile race., and
'it is expected that some very Tine
; distance men will be found to give
' ba.ttle to the redoubtable Knglish

Of the team was made possible, and
Alfred Shrubb, the famous distance
runner and for several years the
coach of the Harvard cross country
team and distance men, as coach.
Shrubb will guar
antee that the English collegians will
be in the pink of condition when
they meet America's best on May 1.
The query at once arises as to
whether America will have the ma
terial to meet this formidable for
eign invasion. Coach Robertson of
Pennsylvania stated at once that,
though he had intended to put his
big efforts on the one-mile event, he
will make every effort to have a
team that will give battle to the Eng
lishmen. . But America's hopes will not be
wholly dependent, on Pennsylvania.
Yale and Harvard have very good
.two-mile teams. In 'fact, Yale was
considered as the fastest ; two-mile
relay of the recent indoor season. In
Reed, Oriscoll, O'Brien, Siemens and
Heffelfinger the Klis have five men
capable of beating two minutes. Reed
and Driscoll have won many impor
tant middle distance races this win
ter, and they will make 'the Yale
team very hard to beat. It will also
be remembered that Harvard was
beaten only one foot by Yale in a
rtwo-mile relay race, so the Crimson
will also have to be reckoned with.
Chicago is also said to have Very
good material for this event, so that
Cambridge-Oxford will have the
hardest of competition to meet here.
It should be one. of the. greatest
sporting events of the year, and
.Franklin held will.no doubt be too
small to hold the crowd that will
clamor for admission.
