AGAINST IDAHO TEAM
Special to The HeraldRepublican
Logan Dec 12Tlle B Y C basket
ball team had its first game of the
season Saturday when it met the
team representing the Oneida StaKe
academy of Preston Idaho The game
was played in the college gymnasium
and was won by the home team 21 to
18 it was a very poor contest rough
and ragged and while the B Y C
got the game it was more through
luck than anything else as the Pres
ton team showed the better team work
t Nearly fifty fouls were called but
the men throwing from the foul line
were wild hence the small size of the
score In the first half the home team
gained three points on the visitors
the score being 13 to 10 and in the
last half each team scored eight points I
The B Y C team will have to show
a great improvement in form if it gets
anything in the State league this year
for it will be badly outclassed The
teams lined up as follows

IWElCOME TO THE MONEY I

local Riders Who Ran Been There i
Say SixDay Goniettants
Barn Their Pay
They are welcome to ail they got they
certainly earned it is the way Hardy
Downing Ped Palmei and Steve Sen
house all veterans of the New York six
day race talk about their fellow nders
Who are now just beginning to live again
after the big sleep
The three riders named like all others
who have taken part In the big race
say that the purse money is all too small
With the guarantees added which on the
average will give each rider that takes
part in the race around iiOO the puce
Is still too small they say Training
and other expenses of the riders are very
heavy As a moneymaker for the pro
moters the sixday race is one of the
best sporting investments in the coun
try Salt Lake fans are smiling at the wise
old head Lanky MacFarland He en
tered the race in none the best of condi
tion and when an opportunity came for
his partner Clarke to hook up with a
good man like Rutt Mac simply fell off
his wheel Whether or not the broken
finger was figured on is a tittle uncer
tain The big surprise here and a disap
pointment too was the poor position won
by Demara and Lawson Wagers were
many that they would get third or bet
ter Reports have reached the city that De
mara soon in a weak condition failed
to do half the work of the team and
kept Lawson on much more than half
the time rom the showing made by
Hill Demaras partner last spring when
Demara male his reputation as a six
day rider it looks as If Hill is much the
better man of the two
The ride of Al Halstead who last rode
in Salt Lake as an amateur was one
of the surprises of the race He was
always known as a pluggtr and he held
his own in the sprints better than many

NAVY QUARTERBACK IS
STEADILYIMPROVING Y l
Washington D C Dec 12Wes B
Wilson of Covington Ky father of Ca
det Earl Wilson quarterback of the navy
football team who was seriously injured
in a game with Villa Nova some weeks
Mr Wilson
ago was in the city yesterday
son has been at his sons bedside ever
since the accident and he brings the
very encouraging news that the young
athlete is rapidly improving
Young Wilson is now able to sit up
and has the use of his arms and the at
tending surgeons are of the opinion that
he will eventually be as good physically
as ever before
The improvement In my IOns condi
tion has been gradual but most encour
aging said Mr Wilson For a time
his lungs did not work voluntarily but
were kept in action by the muscles of hs
diaphragm Now he is breathing with
his lungs The use of his arms and neck
are gradually coming back In fact the
improvement is on a downward course
and we have hopes that in time he will
be able to use his legs
The operation which was performed
was successful In every way It seems
that the fifth vertebra was fractured
and the crushed portion was removed
Since then my sons improvement has
been marked and we are assured that
he will in due time be as good as ever
But pone of my boys will ever be al
lowed to play football again
Ear Wilson was the star athlete at
Annapolis leading in baseball basket
ball and boxing and but for the accident
In football would have been the star of
his team
GOTCH SAYS ZBYSCO
LACKS CLEVERNESS
New York Dec 12 Champion
wrestler Frank Gotch is confident
that when he meets Zbyszco again he
will defeat the ponderous Pole In
fact he is sure he is the better man
of the two He tackled Zbyszco in Buf
falo and tried to thrown the Pole twice
in an hour He admits that he was
mistaken in his idea that the Pole was
just like a good many other foreign
wrestlers who have come to this coun
try with the reputation of being won
ders and then exploded
He weighs sixty pounds more than
I do says Gotch and Is very strong
At that I was on top of him for fifty I
minutes of the hour and when he did I
try to throw me he did not show that
he knew many of the tricks of the
game I dont think he knows much
about the finer points of wrestling
To tell the truth I do not think he is
as good as Hackenschmidt I
