Lincoln, Jan. 23.—(Spe cial Telegram.)—Jack Best is dead. The hands that have massaged many a bruised muscle for Cornhusker ath letes; the voice that has sent them into battles full of fight, for 30 years, are stilled for ever. But the spirit of Jack Best lives on. Jack died at 1:35 p, m. Tuesday. He was 77 vears old. Jack Best gave liis life to the Uni versity of Nebraska, lie came here in 1888. From then until his health gradually began to fail a year ago. he has been an Integral part of every football team Nebraska had. “My boys,” was the way he referred to all men who ever wore the Scarlet and Cream. During the last months of his serious Illness Jack expressed but one wish. He wanted to live to see Ne braska's great memorial stadium dedicated. Then, he said, he would feel like giving up his old place, just inside the dressing room door. But death cheated h!m. Ci I veil Banquet. Bast season, Jack celebrated his 77th b rthday at the reception. It was far unlike other gatherings of its kind. Jack was in the Lincoln sanitarium and he was very ill. The pudding was there: all of the *'N” men were gathered around his bed hut the familiar odor of sweaty clothes and the hiss of needle showers was missing. Always before these recep tions were held 1n the gymnasium dress tig room. But Jack Best did not lose his smile. Jack Best was a tradition held in greater respect, than any other by the student body. During the last few years when rheumatism badly crippled him, he never failed to get to his feet, bare his white head and acknowledge the thunderous cheer which was a rite never forgotten at all football games. Real Nebraska Man. The students would thunder out ‘'He's the man. who’s the man? lie's a Nebraska man—Jack Beal " And that's exactly what he was— a Nebraska man. Jack Best was born in Sommerset shire, England, on December 14. 1545 In 1888, Jack Best came to Lincoln on a job of cement laying in the ar- . tnory. While working on this job, he was offered a night watchman's posi tion at the University. Ho accepted this position and through .General Pershing, who was at that time a lieutenant at the University, made a reputation as a booster of athletic en deavor. With the influence of Persh ing. .look Best wns appointed as box ing instructor and athletic trainer. During the past 35 years, with the grow v of the 'nst tution. his resnonsi bllity and attention has been given to training and taking care of all of Ne braska's athletic teams. A W'Mow, two daughters and a son, survive him. The son. Frank Best, is connected with the university in a mechanical capacity. The university of Nebraska men’s ”N” club, representing those who have won letters in some branch of university athletics, will have charge of the funeral arrangements.

Jack Best was the trainer of the Cornhusker ahtletes.' Hhe massaged their bruises; instilled the old "pep’' into their systems before a game and did everything he could to help them win games. And he generally succeeded. Followers of the gridiron sports who have conte and gone at Nebraska, have been ardent admirers of certain coaches and players, and knockers of others, but Jack Best knew no wrong in any athlete or coach of the school he loved. Witnessed Hashers Last Game. It was a happy sight that brought tears to the eyes of the followers of athletics at Nebraska last Thanks giving day just before the annual Nebraska Notro Dante football game when a bunch of the football men gathered round and tendered old "Jack" an informal reception. Last Turkey day Jack Best was placed upon a cot and carried to the athletic field so that he might see "his boys” play against Notre Dame. Tears trickled down the cheeks of General Pershing when the former commander of the A. E. F. stopped and grasped Jack Best's withered band. It was Pershing who gave Best his first job at Nebraska. Hundreds of students of Nebraska stood bareheaded when Jack Best was carried in on a cot. Tried to Smile. When Nebraska scored its second touchdown against Notre Dame, the "grand old man of Nebraska ath letics" tried to smile, but one could easily see that the face that once radi ated with smiles whenever Dusker I athlptes scored, was not the same as In years gone by. Rheumatism began bothering Jack several years ago and it gradually strengthened Its grip on the veteran trainer until it developed into a serious illness, which resulted in his death yesterday afternoon. Thirty-five years ago Jack Best came to Lincoln. He had always been a sport follower in old England, the land of his birth. “HI used to like to* skate in the old country,” Jack would say. “Hi was a boxer too. Old Bill Bailey was my first instructor.” Coached Cornhusker Team. lie was first given a position as janitor and night watchman in one of the buildings. Later when football made its debut out here in the sand hills, "Jack” showed a great interest in the sport and was chosen to coach the first football team. "H'it was®a great game in those old days," he always said. "There was a lot more fight in h'it. Lots rougher you know. H i always liked the game." When Jack's rheumatism began to bother him, ho was forced to retire to the locker room and act as trainer for the team. There are hundreds of j Cornhuskers who have had their Ills ! cured by the veteran. Benedict, ! "Mother" Abbott, Guy Chamberlain, "Dusty" Rhodes and a hundred other Cornhusker stars have passed from the limelight, but old "Jack” remembered them as though It were yesterday that, he bandaged their wounds and rubbed out their "charley-horses." During the summer he always got j restless waiting for the athletes to j come back. Two years ago he took ! a two weeks’ Vacation and during that timo he visited in Omaha. It was the first time that he had been In a “big city" for a long time. “Tt's just like old London," "Jack" replied after he returned from his visit.

I,IKU. PI,AVER whose name is only a memory to the present generation of fans, hut who left a ileep im pression on the game was Jim i iny Ryan, slash ing outfielder of the Chicago Na tionals in the late eighties and nineties, and a player who stood the gaff of big league strife for a period of IS years. In his younger days, Ryan was a player who loved to play his prank# on "ole Cap Anson,” but after the Brotherhood war, Jimmy was An ; son's hitting ace. He was one of the j few members of tho great Chicago ! team of the late eighties, who stuck ) to Anson and his White Stockings during the Brotherhood insurrection. Ryan's record as a big leaguer is one of the most notorious of any of the old-time stars. He played in over 2.000 big league encounters, scored over 1,600 runs, cracked out over 2.000 hits, totalling nearly 3,700 bases, and stole 440 bases. That's accomplish ing something during a baseball life time. There are very few players who stole 440 bases. They can be counted on your two hands. Ryan's big league activities were limited to Chicago and .Washington. Way back in 1886, Ry in spent his first National league season with the Washington and Chicago clubs. He remained a Cub until the National League war. lie was idle in 1901, but completed his career with two seasons with the Washington Americans. During Jimmy's long career as a big leaguer, he played on only one championship team, his first season j with Chicago in 1886. Ryan hit over .300 in his first five years in the National league, dropped out two years, and then slapped out j seven more .300 averages in succes- 1 slon.

Dempsey's manager, Jack Kearns, is due to arrive tomorrow and in the afternoon a conference is scheduled with Promoter Tex Rickard at which negotiations for the tltleholder's ex pected program of action during the outdoor season may reach a definite basis.

The latter contest may occur in September. Dempsey declared he was ready to meet any of these heavyweights as well as Harry Will*, with whom he signed tentatively for a bout six months ago. but ring circles were convinced that no proposition for a match with the negro would be dis cussed.

The Indans will report for practice in their own ball lot March 17. TfottShouldtinou) C49horp Q. What Is meant by 12-inch baskets?” A. Professional rules state that the in side rim of baskets most he 13 Inches , from the backboards. This Is commonly ! referred to as the 4412-Inch basket.4' It simply* meansthe straight rod from hoop to back board must be 12 Inches long. Q. I a there such a thing as lour quar ter periods in basket ball? A. Yes. The rules committee recom mends four quarters instead of two halves when the players are young and Inex- j perlenced. It is felt that 20 minute halves would overtax hoys. Q. Is the size of the court specified in amateur rules? A. Y’es. The rule states that court cannot exceed 00 by 50 feet or be less than 60 by 35 feet. Q. Is time taken out when a double foul is called? A. Yes. by the referee and it does not start again until the referee tosses the hall up In center following free throws by both trams. Q What is the penalty for “three men . in A. None, unless one of the players charges In and niukes body contact. ^ llow to Play Uiaket Ball. Offense. Nothing is more discouraging * for team play than for a player to cut for the basket two or more steps in the ' lead of his opponent and then not receive a pass from his teammates. The man with the ball should always be on the alert to pass to a player cutting for the basket. Thus, a player so cutting should tall loudly. Then he will not be over looked. It is most difficult to teach a player the proper time to cut. In roach* ing 1-ollege and school players, most of whom are inexperienced, I find that if set plays are given early in the season, call ing for a number of short passes for working the ball up the court and terminating with two men cutting for the basket. It helps them greatly in getting the habit of cutting in. This is done with the hope that with experience they will learn when and when not to cut In After all your offense depends greatly upon the way your players break and cut. - - !

Ii Happened in Baseball Perhaps the greatest pitching registered against a major league team was turned in the Matty Kllroy, famous southpaw hurler who was with Baltimore club of the old American association from 1886 until 1890. KUroy, \n 1886, hurled nine games against the Athletics, winning sevan. In the nine game* only 63 hits were made, an average of less than four a game. Kllroy struck out 112 batsmen, an average of 12 per game Tn 1887, K'Urny won nine out of the 11 games h« pitched againat the same team. A team batting average for the two seasons stood .178. In 1894. which was n grand reason for hitsmen, somewhat similar to 'he seasons of 1921 and 1922, there w rc only five 1 to o game* played in the 12- lub major league. Tn the same season •> !v 28 shut out gameg wore pitched in 1918. no less than 128 no-run gamer wore reg Istered In the National leagu*- of eight clubs. Tn 1921, there were 65 shoutout games pitched In the National lcagu«». In the full of 1918. Pittsburgh and Cleveland clubs played f- r l«»i- for the championship of Ohio end Penns* Ivaota i and It waa for blood. Vent Gregg pitch. ing for Cleveland performed In a wonder ful manner. In the first game played j October 7, which was a 10-innlng affair, ' Gregg fanned JO batsmen and allowed only ! two hits In the last game of the series which was played October 13 the tall left-hander was at his best and pitched ball that recalled the days of Tom Ramsey or “Rube" Waddell. pn that game, which went 13 innings. Gregg held the Pirates to five hits and fanned 19 batsmen winning the contest. 1 to 0. “Reddy'* Muck was a famous second packer for Louisville in the da>s when the American association was a major league. Mark used the whistle stunt long before lfughy Jennings thought of It. "Reddy" carried a boiler factory whistle using it at. different stages throughout the game and especially when the umpire slipped up on a decision. Jennings may have copied the idea from Mack for Hughes began his eftreer on the same club only six years later Hughes used the whistle wlp'n he first came to th<* American league and it made a h't The whistle was outlawed but Hugh cultivated a good one with hi.- lips that did yeoman's serv ice during the halcyon days when he was the great***! manager on earth and had ! the Tigers winning pennant* regularly. j ' There is talent to be found in almost any walk of life—much of it !/> going to waste.
