LA COSTE WINS
FRENCH NET TITLE
Paris. Feb. 8.—In the final* of £he
French covered rourt lawn tennis
championship today, Rene i.a < oste
defeated Andre Robert In the men s
singles and Mine. Rillout won from
Mile. Conquet in the singles event
for women. The score in the Da
i 'oste-Robert match was 3 6, 6 1, 6-1,
3-6 and G-4. That in the women's
match was 4-6, 6-3, 6-1.
The veteran Robert swamped his
youthful opponent in the first set,
but he tired in the second and third,
which Da Coste took in easy fashion.
In these two sets Robert hit most
of his halls out of bounds.
After the regulation 10-minute rest
Robert took the fourth set In splendid
fashion, winning every point on his
own services. In the fifth set Da
Coste served first and won. Robert
followed ills example and each of the
players wmn on service until the score
was 5-4 in favor of I,a Coste. RU
liert then lost his service on a double
fault, in the opening game. This
robbed him of that control of nerve
which lie had been saying had come
to him by his last year of golfing
and which he had previously shown
in the championship matches.

JI ST about 2(1 years ago we were
applying rougli diplomacy to Un
seat of King Alfonso's Spanisii
trousers. *
This little chunk of international
housekeeping took us to the
Philippine Islands where General
Funstnn ran himself bowlegged try
ing to plaster a quarantine tag on
General Agulnaldo.
j Not much, if any, did we think that
some day one of Bill Talfts little
brown bothers would double our bid

mat hetes and Mausers were the toys
of childhood's happy hours.
I p until that time, when a red.
rearing Filipino wanted to amuse the
neighbors he wrapped himself in
twine like a bundle and ran amok.
Cunning amok meant that anybody
you met on your howling picnic was
a flower in the garden of the gods
to be added to your bouquet of homi
cidal bloom-. A Filipino voting the
ann-k ticket was a tough lady to
shave.
Tllh twine around his body would
n»t slop a bullet, hut it would
stop hint from bleeding. It was
fin unusual tiling for a wliistlinc
Asiatic to knock off six or seyen
American soldiers before they got
close enough to shampoo hint with
baseball hats.
It took some years before the
fighting simmered down sufficiently
to Ire controlled with boxing gloves
Then. Taft's little coffee-colored rela
tives took a new interest in the queer
weapons anti watched the crazy white
men knocking each other's noses six
ways from breakfast.
Soon the Igurrole* and (he Taga
logs tried out the leather bombs for
themselves.
A\ Ignrrote is a bird who thinks |

to 18 victory over
the North Dakota
Aggies on the
Hilltop court Sat
urday night.
The Creighton
quintet, playing
a great brand of
the cage sport,
completely outclassed the P,Isons all
the rugged way, and a rugged route
it proved to be.
The North Dakota aggregation,
composed of big. burly men, who de
pended on weight and stamina rather
than on speed and skill to score,
dashed, bull like, against the staunch
defensive machine of the Hilltop
time and again, but the S< habinger-^^*^a
coached team presented a stubborn
five-man resistance that kept the lad#
from the north out of danger.
While the northmen were finding it
extremely difficult to penetrate the
barricade of the Omahans, Captain
Trautman and bis cohorts dashed
through the great gaps in the Bison
wail to score from short range almost
at will.
And to sort of add dash and excite
inent to the game, Mahoney and
Trautman furnished some sensational
goals from the far regions.
Creighton's five man offensive
team, which consists of five forwards,
as every man is a dead shot, and the
entire team goes down the floor with
the I tall, divided the scoring last
night.
Trautman lead with 12 points, with
• Bullet" Joe Speicher, guard, and
Mahoney, center, next with 8 points
apiece. Sid Corenman. guard, had
seven markers and diminutive A1
Brow n, forward, followed close ori his
heels with 6
••ned" Blakely, giant flaming heath
ed center, played a good floor game
for the losers, while Miller lead th«
scorers with seven markers.
