High School and Y. M. C. A. Arrange Games With Vis
iting Collegians For January 19 and 20; High School
Hopes to Win, Since Arizona Beat Silver City;
the Normalites Are Also Coming Soon.
BY J. C.
IK pursuance of their plan to give
El Pasoans the very best in bas
ketball during the present season.
1: K Reukauf, coach of the High school
I am s, and A L. Holm, physical direc
tor of the Y M. C. A.,Jiave arranged
to bring the University of Arisona team
to El Paso on Tuesday and Wednesday.
.Ian 19 and 20. Wednesday night the El
J'.ifo senior and junior girls' teams will
meet in the first game, while the sec
ond game will be played by the boys'
trams of the El Paso High school and
tlit University of Arizona. '
The El Paso boys recently lost to the
:her City Normal team, and the nor
malites, in turn, were subsequently
brttcii by Arizona unfversity. The El
l'asoans lost their game at Silver City
1 a small margin, and hope to defeat
. i. zona in the coming contest thereby
s, lowing they are better than Silver
it At the time of the game in 811-
er City, the El Paso team was shy on
Pi 'ictiee.
Since then, however, every member
of the team has been playing in the
Commercial league and all have shown
1 1 markable improvement. At the pres
ent time they have a very strong ag
gregation. In captain Bob Bryant, little
). Rlieinhelmer and Cooper McKemy
t he have three forwards of far more
than oi dinars' ability. At center they
haie Al Tatum. who has begun to show
jjiomise of outplaying any center in the
i ity within another two or three weeks.
In Jimmie Kilburn they have a young
ster who.'if he, can continue to show
the great game he has been playing
ri'oentb. will undoubtedly be unanim
hi1 voted as "the best anchor guard
i'i the southwest at the close of the
ason And in Palmer Schumacher
Hii'l Scott Walker they have two fast
i unning guards who are as accurate as
most forwards in basket shooting and
v ho are fighting every moment of play.
With this bunch to select from, the
):i Paso bovs should be able to defeat
the University of Arisona despite their
aunted strength
Girls Have Won Every Game.
The Ei Paso Senior girls' team is
most remarkable. This five is now en
tering on its third consecutive year
v ith a record of having won every
i-iitif it has played during that time.
The team which has made this great
) ecord is composed of Reba Elliott,
i in.nlng center. Ruby Ponsford, jump
inpr center; Mary Wadlington, left for
ward and captain of the team: Bessie
Koutledge, right forward: Nancy Ed
naros, left guard, Vivian Pomeroy,
right guard, and Phyllis Routledge,
substitute. This team accompanied the
hoys to Silver City and met the girls
from the Normal The former were
i loser to defeat than ever before The
Silver City team played them to a
standstill dating the regular periods ot
play and if was necessary to play an
e-ttra period to decide the winner. Then
the El Paso girls barely nosed out a
victory through a remarkable basket
Ihrown by captain Wadlington.
Biuarx.
Many of the "Hi" boys have turned
out and played against the girls to
give them practice and as a result the
girls have developed a game as hard
and as fast as the boys.
Arizona vs. T. 31. C. A.
The night of Tuesday, Jan. 19, the
University of Arlzqna team will meet
the fast V. M. C. A. team. This latter
team, which 1b probably the best In the
city at the present time, will endeavor
to show the Arizona players what they
should know but don't about basket
ball. The "Y" team has already shown
on numerous occasions that it wilt take
a mighty strong combination to beat
them. With "Sae" Shea and "Fats"
Rose as forwards, ,Bob Done at center
and Phil Holzman and Lamar Thomae
at the guards they have a team which
works together as smoothly as a Well
oiled machine. It is a Teal treat to
watch this five pass. Its throwing
is fast and accurate and almost invari
ably goes to the right man. Of course
this team can be blocked as any other
can, but once give its players half a
chance to get clear and they are a
mighty hard aggregation to stop, short
of a basket. These games are sure to
be watched with. Interest, particularly
as Arizona will bring its great little
forward, the El Paso boy who has been
elected captain of next year's football
team at Arizona, Asa Porter. Asa has
been touted from Arizona as the great
est forward in the southwest this year,
and one of the best ever turned out in
this section. All El Pasoans present
will watch his game with great inter
est to make comparison between his
playing and that of the other El Paso
forwards.
A strong preliminary will be played
prior to this game. It is possible that
the Lamar and Bailey teams, played
such a fast, close game recently will he
brought together for the curtain raiser.
Silver City Coming Ilere.
The Saturday following these games.
El Pasoans will be given another treat
in the way of basketball. The boys and
girls from the Silver City Normal will
play the boys and girls of the vHlgn
school. The first game will be between
the girls' teams. The Normal girls
promise to reverse the result of the last
game, while the High girls state they
will win by such a large margin as to
leave no room for doubt as to the better
team. In the second game the two boys'
teams will meet and the High boys de
clare they will get revenge for their
recent defeat at the hands of Normal.
This game also will be watched with
interest because of the fact that Silver
City will bring Lin Dunlap, their giant
center with them. Dunlap, who is six
feet, four inches tall, is declared to be
the best center in the southwest this
year. Reports from Sliver City and
those which the members of High
school brought back with them, are to
the effect that Lin is not only la great
Jumper but that he can throw baskets
from almost any position or angle, and
frequently throws them the length- of
the field.

FansWll Likely Consider Tactics Unfitir
BY H. I.
WITH the cry of "Lay on Mac
Duff and damned he he who
first cries hold, enough," the
I'i ileral league has launched a 41
. ntimeter shell at the vitals of organ
i .ed baseball in the Bhape of suit under
tin Sherman anti trust law.
This action brings to mind the re
plj of Charles Comiskey when asked
what he thought of the Federal league,
vhortlv after his return from his trip
.i -ou nd the world.
1 If they'll fight on the square, J
wish them good luck," said the Old
Roman, and in his fairness he voiced
.it the time pretty nearly the general
feeling of fandom in reference to "the
new league
Whether there was and is 'room for
mother major league, is not the prop
osition e intend to discuss here. The
iirobabillty is that had the Federal
! ague waged Its war for recognition
.ilonjj other lines it might have eventu
nllj gained the foothold which It
bought. After all is said and done the
answer to this question rested with
the fans and neither with socalled or
ganized baseball or the Federal league,
for Ban Johnson struck the vital chord
w hen he declared that the battle would
bs decided at the turnstiles.
Thre was a fair chance that the
EVERAItD.
Federal league might have come some
what closer to its goal with the com
ing season had it not lashed out ruth
lessly as it has since the close of the
1114 season.
'Sot Fighting on the Square.
After all, the "game's the thing"
with the fan, and the Federal league
players were putting up a brand of
ball that was falily entertaining, but
falpdomj whileinclined to be with the
UMer dog wants, nay demands, that
the under dog "fight on the square,"
and it seems- to be the general feeling
now that by invoking the aid of the
United States court fii order that or
ganised baseball may be dissolved as a
trust, the Federal league is not fight
ing on the square.
Nothing that the socalled ' outlaws"
have attempted has hurt them so much
with those who In the end must or
might become their patrons as this
move. The rank and file of fans wlK
not disassociate those connected with
organized baseball from the institu
tion itself and fandom will not stand
for any mud slinging at the national
pastime.
Tenet's View Is Correct.
"I can hardly believe that the insti
tution of such litigation by the Federal
league will redound to its credit or

As a matter of fact it is our strange
belief that Willard has a mighty good i
cnance oi Dealing Jonnson not De
cause Willard is Willard. however, hnt
because Johnson is Johnson. We don't
believe that any 37 year old man, and
especially a man who has lived 30
years according to the Johnson lights,
can beat an opponent just as big. Just
as strong, and nearly 10 years younger.
The natural law of the prize ring is
against the sable slammer. It is par
ticularly against him with the fight
scheduled for what amounts to a fin
ish distance. For 20 rounds the su
perior ring craft and experience of the
champion might enable him to stall off
any youthful opponent, as he stalled off
Frank Moran in Paris, but this coming
battle is for twice 20 rounds, and we
don't believe any man can lug 37
years over that route with a couple of
'hundred pounds of comparative youth
added to his burden.
Distance Helps Jex.n
Willard may not be a good fighter,
but he is probably better than Moran,
and Johnson could not knock out Mo
ran in it rounds. Maybe he didn't re
ally try, but a lot of people who saw
the fight think he did. In any event
the longer the Juarez fight goes, the
better AVillard's chances. If that pal
pitating heart of the long Kansan's will
only sustain him for JO rounds, and
give old Natural Law an opportunity to
work on Johnson, the result Is a cinch.
There will be a white champion.

Written Especially For This Paper by the Famous American League Umpire.
THE over enthusiastic actions of a
coacher at first base was the
cause of a belated protest in one
of the larger minor leagues last sum
mer. Strangely enough, no one noticed
the mistake at the time. About two
innings later the manager of the team
affected by the ruling got wise, en
tered a protest with the uVnpire, but,
since his club won the game, did not
press the protest
The first batter up in the inning sin
gled, bat a moment later was caught
off first base on a snap throw from the
catcher. In the run up between first
and second, he finally managed to slide
safely back into first base. He struck
the ground in such a way that he
knocked the first baseman over Just as
the ball struck .fels hands. Delighted
to get back to first In safety after hav
ing been caught off the base.'and his
vision momentarily obscured by the
cloud of dust that arose as a result of
the slide and collision, the runner made
no effort to rise. Satisfied with lifo
and very much tired because of the
dodging tactics he had to resort to in
order to get back to, first he failed to
notice that the ball had rolled some
distance away.
The coacher, anxious that advantage
be taken of the slip, rushed over to
first base, grabbed hold of the runner,
advised him of the error, and told him
to try for second. The runner regained
his feet and made a dash for second.
The. first baseman recovered the ball,
and -a good throw would have easily
retired the runner at second, but in
stead, he threw the ball into left field,
the runner reaching third base on the
blunder. The play came up shortly
after the opening of the season, the
-umpires had the rule fresh in mind
about therights of the coacher with the
runner at third, and for a time every
body must have got the play slightlv
confused. When the umpire declared
the runner out because the coacher had
laid hands on him, there was not the
slightest protest.

He would be a great acquisition for

It Is doubtful If McGraw would let him
go. "Sinister pick" is - one of the
greatest judges of baseball talent in
the business, and his value as a scout
lies not only in the players he secures,
but In the ones he refuses to take.
It may be that Dick read about John

writer. "He is tall, rangy and a good

ago that if he had Pipp another year
he would turn the best first baseman
in the business over to Detroit."

Right away, like most grooms. ne
proceeded to spend his wad on the hon

"It wasn't a very comfortable feel

there I decided to save my coinjfnd get

Herxog did and now he is indepen

enough crops each year to support
Herzog and his family without the aid
of his baseball savings. His home is
one of the finest farm houses in Mary
land. He has a benzine chariot, money,

.. Following the Ball.
Percy Haugkton, a coaching fellow,
tells us that the success of the Hai -vard
elevens In the past has been due
very largely to the fact that he has
ordered his men to follow the ball.
Percy made those remarks recently
when asked to explain the great work
accomplished by Harvard. But Perc,
as you will notice, didn't reveal the se
cret of how he gets his men to carry
out his orders.
The fundamental principle of football
coaching is "follows the balL" Everv
coach in the country tries to drill it
into his men. But few succeed. Haugh
ton succeeded where others have failed.
How Does He Succeed
If Haughton would unbosom himself
to the point where he will tell how he
handles his men so that they will fol
low the ball eTery minute during the
game, be will be conferring a lares
fav&r upon Francis Hinkley, of Yale,
and other coaches. They instructed
their men to follow the balL But it
didn't do much good. About the only
thine the Yale fellows did against
Harvard was to follow the Harvard
ball toters two jumps in the rear.
How did you do it Mr. Haughton?
Did you club the boys on the knob and
threaten to club 'em some more if they
didn't follow the ball? Or did you de
prive them of breakfast? Or did you
promise them all an air rifle and tl
for spending money?

game, when the other team secured a

big enough to win the game, the man

frankly admitted that he was thinking
of the rule relative to the coacher at

applied it to first base as well.
The play brings up the question as
to just how far the coacher has a right
to go. On the play In question the
coacher simply grabbed the runner,
shook him a trifle to stir htm up, and
advised that he try for second. It was
a rather foolish chance, for a good
throw would have retired the player.

umpires who discussed the play be
lieved that it would have been best for
the umpire to have overlooked the
actions of the coacher. What do you
