Omaha Bee Sports] New York, Jan. 18.—'This writer, dabbling In professional sport, never even dimly sensed tlie interest in Imsket ball until lie took up the mat ter of tlie world’s record of 1!5 consecutive victories established by I lie husket ball teams of the I’assaic High school. Headers of this column will recall that the comment was followed by a letter from M. <1. Glreson, a basket ball adherent of St. John Prep school of llrooklyn, in which he Implied that Passaic high made its record by meeting “setups”—this Is, mediocre opponents. He didn't think Passaic high could bent St. John. That started the storm. Friends of I’assaic high rushed to its defense. Other correspondents supported Air. Gleeson, adding that Passaic high insists on carrying ite own ; eferee, after the fashion set by some • our pugilistic champions of memory not too remote when they ere campaigning In the ’’sticks." The noise continues unabated. At intervals during the day the Office boys stagger in with armloads of small, fresii fuel to the controversy which has now settled down to a sort of Passalc-St. John debate. The casual reader may say that i he obvious method of settling this particular phase of the discussion Is to bring Passaic high and St. John roget aer. Apparently this is not as easy a* it sounds—no easier than bringing •ogetherjwo great rivals in any field Of sport. A telegram reaches the writer from George H. Greenfield, obliging sports editor of the £assalc Dally News, who supplied tn.» writer with much information about ^assalc high's rec ord, its basket t>al* coach. “Prof.” Grnest Blood, and th«. personnel of the teams that made the record. This telegram is as follows: "The board of education would not sanction game with prep school until after championship, perhaps not at all. However, Fritz Knothe. captain, and other members of last year s Passaic High school team authorize me to challenge tlie St. John Prep school for a game In Madison Square Garden, under your promotion for benefit of Pas-salc and Brooklyn hos pltalg.” Soon after the receipt of this tele gram another telegram c&ine to the writer from ft. F. Lynch, athletic di rector of SI. Jplin college of Brooklyn, ^ which follows: f "In the Pjseaie Dally News of : Tuesday, Jan,rfiry 15, I find a dial lenge to St. John Prep from Iasi ■ year's Passaic high school team. "The letter of Mr. Cileeson In your olumn was In reference to a game with Passaic high school—not Us i graduates, hut Us present ‘wondei learn.’ "In 1921 Rev. G. O'Grady personal ly asked Mr. Blood. Passaic coach, -- for a gume and was refused. In 1922 the manager wrote to Passaic and received no reply. On October !, 1923, I wrote for game—no reply. "Our challenge still holds. We are ' ready and willing to play Passaic high school. Keating the graduates i f Passaic would not beat Passaic's string. • Palming off last year's team is an attempt to evade our challenge. It is, in Mr. Greenfield's words, a I duff.'' The writer lias Up desire to take , ikies in this discussion. It is too interesting and productive if too much copy for him to become a ^ partisan. He had no Intention of .starting a {controversy when he called attention • to the record of Passaic High as an extraordinary achievement in sport— which it undoubtedly is. But it appears to him that Mr. | Lynch is right in his attitude that if the Passaic High is to become a chal lenger of the present basket ball of J St. John Prep it should l<e with the , present toam of Passaic High—not last year's team. f Ned Aim won over Dick Huye in . the city pocket billiard tournament 1 at the Holmes recreational parlors , last night by the score of 100 to 9k.

The contest was the best basket ball battle fought tn Nichols gymnasium for several years. Both teams displayed beauti ful form and the outcome was doubt ful till the final whistle gave- the game to the Aggies. The Aggie quintet was in rare form and their teamwork was the most perfect shown by a Manhta tan team for many moor.s. Practical ly everyone of their field goals was made from under the basket. Nebras ka excelled at semi-long shots. They were unable to penetrate the Aggie defense consistently. The score at the of the first half was 16 to 15, in fa vor of the Aggies. Taking the ball front the tlpoff at the beginning of the second period, Nebraska started a whirlwind attack that promised for several minutes to swamp the Wildcats. Three field goals and a free throw In quick succes sion made the score 22 to 16. The Aggie defense stiffened here, however, and the Cornhuskers made only one point during the remainder of the half. Koch, center, Slid Captain Webber, guard, were the Individual stars of the Aggies. Goodson, center, played an outstanding game for the Cornhuskers. The box score: Aggies. Nebraska. Bunker, rf .

All are scientific sports, the degree of science exerted In each Iteing largely a matter of the mentality and natural abilities of competitors Involved. After all, your answer can be merely an opinion. So here's mine in the order which they attach to science: Tennis, golf. boxing, base football. • Tennis and golf loom up almost equal to the demands made on sob entific play. Both are games which require almost a lifetime to master the various strokes in accordance with known laws of each game. With boxing, baseball and football this is not the case, relatively scientific as they can be made to be.

If not the most Important they are cer tainly the hardest to perfect. Fully aware of all the intricacies involved in good driving I should say that a menacing service is the harder to attain. In the first place a tenniw service must possess variety of type and method. This is not required of the drive. It needs must be straight and a long one, or one with tv slight pull which swerves around again. These drives are both obtained by one method, to wlt: Correct stance, control of the body, a flawless upward and driftn ward swing and follow through. Hut In the tennis service the well rounded player can call on a half dozen types "f swerves, all difficult to master. They are the American twist, the reverse overhead cut and the reverse American; the straight overhead forehand, the forehand service with a cut, and the forehand chop service. The average aspirant to court fame first masters the American twist, acquiring the others’ with sometimes years of practice. When the server, in turn, becomes the receiver he Is confronted with the task of solving his owtn pet of fensives. Perhaps you have been up against an American twist service yourself. If you have, then you un derstand that this hail with the for ward spin, swerving in its flight from right to left, and breaking directly opposite the course you expect It, Is not an easy thing to successfully deal with. At.least I have never found It eo. Hroadly speaking I would match the back-hand shots In tennis against the approahc.es with the Irons in golf; and the f;ne art of placing against the difficulties attending put ting. McLaughlin, one of the court's immortals, could never fully master the hack hand. Frequently like the novic , this genius ran around the ball to take It forehanded. The golfer will probably argue that placing in tonnls is not merly so knotty a prob lem as successful putting. This may or may not be so. It is surely a delicate operation. But putting, probably requires less science than any other stroke In golf when analyzed. Beginners fre qucntl.v make astonishing putts, de noting that it Is more a matter of confidence than anything else. There are few rules to follow In sinking a putt. It is just made—or It Isn't. However, the placement In tennis requires something more than con fidence and rock-ribbed steadiness. When the racquet wlelder decides a sly switch of the ball to an unguard ed corner he must conceal his trick ery. It must not he revealed by the slightest change of position. Almost at the moment of impact there Is a ... ft twist of the wrist. If it la execut ed properly his cunning placement is scored against a flabbergasted rival Boxing must be accounted a high ly scientific nffair when the Indiv idual with brains appears on the scene. Science is knowledge reduc ed to law and embcidled In system. There are recognized systems of hit ting, blocking, use of the feet, feint ing, and so forth. You know what I mean If you saw Benny Leonard -- whip Lew Tendler recently. But the really scientific boxers are rare these days. The "hit .and grab” style is the most popular with the pugs just now. It's easier than learning to box. The average boxer knows little and cares less about science. A sound body, a knockout wallop, and a smattering of boxing seem to carry a man far in the ring these days In scientific demantis it is far behind tennis and golf, in team play, that is collective *• lence, baseball and football rack ver*. high. But the r* qulrements of individual science, 1 should say, are fewer than those de manded by tennis, golf and l>oring Fielding and hatting might In terfiled an art—which is < omething to be done.” Science is something to be known. A rookie can come from college’or a bush league and be taught the principles <.f <orrect hi' ting and base-running in a couple of months of spring training.

Tex Rickard Is now trying to arrange a match between Doyle ami Nate Goldman, the con queror of Lew Tendler, the winner to meet Mickey Walker either at Madi son Square Garden or at the Polo grounds in the summer. Doyle has a creditable record in the ring and close followers of the art who have watched Goldman and Doyle in action, believe that the crafty Italian will easily defeat the boxer who jumped into fistic fame overnight by defeating Tendler. They point out that Doyle, in addi tion to having a knockout concealed In either hand, is endowed with more than the average ring cleverness and that he could easily avoid Goldman s right-hand swing, his best punch.
