County Champion
ships; Many Fouls
SAN BENITO, Tex„ Feb. 13.—Wil
ton Tract high school girls’ basket
ball quint romped on the Browns
ville high girle team, 30 to 16, here
yesterday afternoon, and will play
Santa Rota Friday for the champion
ehip of Cameron county.
The game was a nip and tuck bat
tle in the firtt half, with first one
and then another team ahead, but
only by a point or two, and the half
I ended with Brownsville leading, $> to
I
The lead was cut short soon after
the atart of the second half, and the
Wilton Tract Azteci went ahead,
and were never stopped, as they piled
up point after point*
The girl Eagles lost three of their
regulars by the foul route, the Cner
ry twiqa and Johnny Cabler, and
aoon lost Summers by the same
route, who had taken Cabler’s place
at guard.
Bouldin, guard for Wilson Tract,
also foyled the limit and was forced
from the game.
Mrs. Francis’ Aztecs presented a
couple of forwards in Wilkenson and
Tanberg, who worked smoothly and
made some of the most difficult and
beautiful shots ever seen on the lo
cal court. Especially good was the
■^ff' al shooting of Wilkenson, who
the basket for 18 points.
| ^^Misa Valenta's team was put to a
disadvantage after three of her stars
had fouled the limit, and the Aztecs
completely outplayed the Eagles soon
after the start of the second half.
\ Elizabeth Cherry, however, was in
the game long enough to shoot three
field goals and two free throws.
The game itself, was thrilling from
etsirt to finish, and a large crowd
witnessed the contest. Meeting on
| neutral grounds, both quints brought
along a large following.
Craig and Ferguson, carters for
Wilson Tract, played a whale of a
game, as did Elodia Pacheco and
Margaret Hughston, centers for
Brownsville.
Singer replaced Pacheco, who went
I to forward, for Brownsville, and
gave a good account of herself. She
was all over the space allotted to
the center position.
Ruby Bennett, forward, made six
points far Brownsville.
Coach Francis’ Aztecs played with
a smoothness and precision. Their
playing uniforms were black and red.
i with "Aztecs” written across their
red jersey sweaters.

champions, will meet Santa Rosa.

GLASS’ ARM—BUT WHAT A WALLOP!
It's a hard rit to swallow when
the batting championship of a ma
jor league has been taken away from
you. But that’s .practically what
has happened to Heinie Manush,
heavy hitter of the St. Louia Browns.
L'pcn completion of the American
league season Manush was generally
recognized as the American league’s
leading hitter, with Leon “Goose”
Goslin. of the Washington Senators,
second. But when the American
leagues’ official statistics were made
known recently, the figures were re
versed and Goslin was enthroned as
the 11*23 batting champion. He won
the race on his last time at bat in
j the final game of the season with a
double that brought his average to
•379, one point above Mnnush.
It was the closest finish in the
American league since Ty Cobb, of
the Detroit Tigers, with an average
of .385, nosed out Nap Lajoie, of
the Cleveland “Naps" by one point
in their memorable race in 1920.
Goslin’s performance was remark
able for the fact that he was handi
capped during the whole season with
a lame arm. At times he could throw
the ball no farther than 50 feet. He
had to hit at a terrific clip to offset
this weakness in his defense, and he
did.
1920—BOTH FIGHTERS COUNTED
OUT
Lightweight Champion Ad Wol*
gast lay prone on his face in a ring
in Los Angeles. Cal., on July 4. 1912.
Mexican Joe Rivers, his opponent,
was sprawled on his back in another
corner.
Delivering simultaneous blows,
they had knocked each other out in
the 13th round of their 20-round
title brawl.
The crowd gasped. Referee Jack
Welch coolly counted to 10 and the
fight was over. However, he gave
Wolgast the fight, claiming that Ad
had started to rise before the fatal
10.
i Rivers’ friends let out a roar.
They claimed their man had been
fouled.
To add to the confusion the time
keeper insisted the round had ended
when Welch reached the count of
four.
But Welch’s ruling became official
and so ended one of the hardest
fought ring battles in pugilistic his
tory.
From the tap of the first bell the
two men had stood toe to toe. slug
ging each other into insensibility.
Neither tried defense.
It was unfortunate that such a
! great scrap should be spoiled by a
fantastic finish. Rivers’ friends nev
>«r accepted Welch’s decision.

FALLING BACK
Youth Beats Him In 3
Straight Sett In
Tournament
—
NEW YORK. Feb. 13.—(A>)—Back
from six months in exile from the
ranks of the Simon Pure amateurs,
Big Bill Tilden has found that time
and the younger tennis generation
have stolen a march on him. Hia
first competition since his reinstate
ment by the U. S. L. T. A., the
Heights Casino invitation, found k
slower Tilden, with rusty strokes
that failed at times to place the
ball where he wanted It, taking the
counts.
Against the youth, speed and pow
er of John Nan Ryn, former Prince
ton captain, and youth came through
to the surprising tune of 6-1, 6-4,
6-2.
The final proved that the lanky
Philadelphian has a lot of practice
1 ahead of him before he can again
qualify for top flight competition !
I just as the preliminary rounds show
i ed him still invincible against less- ;
! er opponents. Bill had no trou-I
ble sweeping through three rounds j
in one day to reach the final but
there he found his six months of
absence of competition had left him
too far out of practice to cope with
j the Orange, N. J., youth who gave
up a chance for a Davis cup post
j last spring to complete his college
course.

TELLS OF CROWS STEALING
GOLF BALLS FOR NEST EGGS
By O. B. KEELER
Not far out of Pans there is a
pretty golf course known as St.
Germain, and not long ago when the
White House newspaper correspond
ents and some others were camping
on the trail of Mr. Coolidgc, or at
least as near to the trail as The
Cloister at Sea Island Beach is to
Sapelo Island, Wilbur lor rest told a
story of St. Germain at once curi
ous and ornithological. Mr. lorrest
for a good many years was European
correspondent for the New York
Herald-Tribune, and when stationed
in Paris he played golf frequently at
St. Germain.
It seems that the number of golf
balls lost on that course was out of
reasonable proportion, especially on
a section bordered by a little pine
forest. There was no particular un
dergrowth; the rough was not very
rough, end yet the golf balls dis
appeared.
“It was a caddy who solved the
mystery.’* said Mr. Forrest, “thereby
relieving himself and his compatri
ots from a certain burden of suspi
cion. The crows had been stealing
the stray golf halls, and some which
weren't strays.
“The caddy had seen a crow swoop
down on a golf hall, not even waiting
for it to become a lost ball, as it was
rolling, and fly away with . it. He
watched its flight and located the
nest to which the ball was taken.
Investigating, he found fifteen balls
in the nest—and a female crow sit
ting on them, in the obvious but mis
placed hope of becoming a mother!
Some of the balls had been sat on
with such fortitude and persistence
that the enamel was worn off of
them.”
Mr. Forrest shook his head sadly.
“The spirit of the age,” he moral
ized. “Kvcn the crows trying to
escape the obligations of egg-laying
when they could find them rolling
about loose!”
