cessity that lie was concerned in the
direction of t lie awtul organization
that was thp Phillies.
Klelcher, like I lady Bancroft, oft lie
llraves, has decided that as long as
lie wasn’t getting anywhere with the
old machine, lie might as well try to
assemble a new one. Therefore, lie is
going into (lie National league race
vvitli a team that will lie largely an
experiment, hut he is happy, and
when I lie manager of the Phillies is
happy, it’s a pnge one story.
The Boy Scouts will he limited

he found Nelson (Chicken) Hawkes
who, when last sighted in the major
leagues, was enrolled as an outfield
or with the Yankees. lie is very fast,
i ml very left-handed. Since leaving
the Yanks lie has sojhurned at Nash
* vtllo. Walter Klmmick, once with
the Reds, more recently with Vernon
in the Pacific Coast league, is the
choice for second base. Heinie Sand,
i lie star witness for the prosecution
ai Tlonnell and Dolan, will do tlie
shortstopptng. Third base goes l(
(.’. B. Hube. an alumnus of tlie Beau
mont dull, with Russ Wrightstone, a
'"left-over from hist year, ready to drop
in if given the chance. Walter Holke,
i veteran first baseman, is still stick
ing around, though Hawkes has
crowded him off tlie regular infield.
Very little that is new, but much
Unit is interesting. Is noted In (lie
makeup of the Phillies’ outfield and
pitching staff.
- Cy Williams, of course, is elected
luiaiiiinoiisly. Tlicn there's old (ieorge
Burns, ex-Riant, ex iled, who is mak
ing his final stand on the way vn the
minors or retirement. The Phillies
look for Burns to do them some good,
if for no other reason than it is Ills
last, lingering lm|>e for remaining in
the big tent. Burns is counted on as
a regular.
The other outfield job will g» to
R dirge Harper, Joe Schultz, John
5lokan or Harold Yordy. Perhaps it
will be divided among the four.
Harper is a former Red. Schultz
was with thp Cards for a long time.
Mohan has been a Pliilly for some
time and Yordy is a newcomer who
hit hard for Waterbury last year.
The pitchers arc. as usual: Walter
It 'Its, Harold Carlson, John Couch,
Wilbur lliibhell, at present a holdout;
Clarence Mitchell and Jimmy Ring,
are hack for duty. Joe Oeseliger may
not report, but the team will start
the season Whether lie docs or not.
The season's new ones that look
good are Frank Ulrich, a right-hander
'from Wnterhury; Raymond Pierce, a
left-hander from Topeka, and Oron
if Neal, a right-hander from Beau
llUlllt.
"Butch” Henline and James Wilson
will do the catching, as usual, and
that completes the story, if one doe.*

New llaven, Conn., March 14.—
Walter Camp, who died in New
York toddy, was one of the great
est hack field players in his day. In
the niiinion of those who have fol
lowed football at Yale for a third of
a century. In Camp's days the for
midable contenders against Vale
W ere W esley an, Rutgers, Tufts and
rriiiretou. Harvard was not then
regarded as a great opponent, al
though the early games often were
noted for remarkable feats. Camp
is said to have come into unusual
prominence In one of the Harvard
games when he displayed skill In
running through a broken field. He
also achieved fame in college base
ball as It was then played.
In later years when he became
the master mind of football in Yale
university, he developed scores of
players w ho became "stars" of
magnitude and often captains. 'Hr.
William Hull, one of the greatest
kickers Yale ever had, who died in
the south, was one of Camp's ear
ly pupils, Kay Tompkins, '84, Har
ry lleecher. and Robert N'. Corwin,
now a professor in the university
and long at the helm hi athletic ad
ministration, were among other
brilliant pupils.
Among players who were Tery
closely linked with t amp as a field
general In the training period for
10 years or more were such well
known men at William H. Corbin,
Frank 8. Butterworth, Frank Hink
ey, Thomas Shrevelin. Kdward
(•lass, fieorge (toss, Pery Hale and
Sherman I.. toy.
In the old days (amp gave up
iniirli of Ills time In life (raining
period to he with the team on the
field, developing the strategy, and
giving careful attention to tile ma
teria). Mr. (amp was accompanied
inucli of his time in the training
Mrs. ( amp, who was known among
\ale players as a keen strategist.
In recent years Camp had been
more of an adviser to the coaches
than an active worker in playing
clothes with the s<|imd. He had also
devoted much time ot study of foot
ball as played by other colleges and
the players developed In them. For
this reason, it was said among his
Intimates, the college football world
accepted his conclusions with satis
faction.

TRIMS BADGERS
Chicago, March 15.—The basket ball
squad of Ohio Htate university last
night added another victory to the
string which had already given them
the championship of the western con
ference by defeating Wisconsin. 37 to
23. Ohio's basket men clinched the
title March 7, when the fast Indiana
squad went »down before them, 2S
to 26.
Second place was In doubt, however,
until last Monday, when Wisconsin
spilled the dope again in a session
marked by upsets and trounced the'
University of Illinois, 24 to 9. This
dropped Illinois to ft tie for second
and third with Indiana. Fourth and
fifth places were decided ThuredaS'
when Purdue won the higher rating
by defeating Michigan. 32 to 26. Mich
igan had to be content with fifth
honors, but was consoled by the fact
that It was the only team to defeat
Ohio, having won from the cham
pions, 39 to 29. January 17.
Wisconsin and Chicago ran neck
and neck for basement honors
throughout most of the season, but
Chicago, with 11 defeats and only one
victory was unquestionably the cel
lar s rightful occupant when the cam
palgn ended. Its only success war a
20 to 19 victory over the only team
which beat the champions, Michigan.

INCOLN, March
14.—Five maroon
clad Technical
High eager*, stat
ing a belated
rally in the final
few moments of
play, trickled out
a 12 to 12 win
over Lincoln
High to win the
championship of
the 15th annual
Nebraska state
basket ball tour
nament in the
finals played on
the Coliseum
court Saturday
night.
It was a great game, repleted with
thrills and tense moments.
Technical, top-heavy favorites to
cop the lauiels, opposed five of rht-^^^
flghtln'est of fighting players of the s
cage sport in Cornhuskerland In the
Lincoln High five, and had It not
been for the accurate longdistance
goal tossing of captain Holm and Ii
Ivin Nelson, the tables would have
been turned.
For Lincoln was playing great has
ket ball Saturday night. They
swirled up and down the spacious
court in gusts of teamwork that
fairly sparkled. and with then
diminutive star, Witte, finding the
range from all angles and distances
piled up a lead In the first half of
S to 5 and maintained that lead until
late in the game.
With Lincoln leading, 11 to 10, at
the start of the final quarter. Cap
tain ^-folm sank a* long rhid^-our
ringer to knot the count at 11 apiece.
Witte cut down the lead with a free
toss, but Nelson saved the game for
the Techsters with a long toss from
the side.
While ( liarnquist. all-state for
ward In 1923, when Tech rnpped the
gonfalon, failed te connect with the
hoops, his cool play on the defen
sive was a hig factor in the Oma
hans’ victory.
MHhollin, who went in for Prerost
after the first quarter, played s
bang-up defensive game, and In
snatching the hall from the back
board on the rebound kept Lincoln
from scoring time and again. One
man. ‘•Dutch" Witte, stood out for
the runnersup. He was 1n nearly
every play, and his three field goals
and five free throws out of five at
tempts gave him the high scoring **■«•
honors of the game.
Warde. center, and Kahier. guard,
also played good ball for Lincoln. Nel
son opened the scoring after several
moments of play with a starling one
handed toss from the side that slipped
through the net clean as g whistle.
Lincoln broke through tip* Ma
roon defense and. traveling dow n
the court In a gust of P.ed and
Tlla.-k players, worked the ball into
the foul zone from where Witte
caged the leather from the side. t>
Ing the count.
Neither team was able to break
through its opponent# defense and
forwards of both quintets attempt
ed b.tig unsuccessful shots. Cap
tain Elmer Holm sreaked through
the Red and Black defense to send
Tech in the lead with a long shot
from life side for the final field goal
of the first quarter. •
Toward the end of the quarter
W'ltte sliced a point off ihe Ma
roon leftd with a free toss on
Holm's four. Tech led, 4 to S at
the quarter.
After several moments of play
Mine grabbed the hall out of a
Jumble of Maroon and Red and
Black players to send I.incoln to
the front for the first time with an
under basket bull's eye.
A\ itte added two more markers
' i* the free throw rt ute. Tech took
time out. Milihollln fouled Witte,
who sank his fourth gift shot out
of ns many attempts, giving lAn
coin an S to 4 lead.
Nelson cut down the lead with a
free thfl*v just before the gun end
ed the half. The score stood Lin
coln. k: tech, 5, at the half.
Holm addeo a pair of markers cn
free throws, putting Tech within
sulking distance.
Nelson cage,! a long side shot Just
as the whistle ended the third quar
ter. Lincoln still led. 11 to 4.
IJncyln sttemp.ed to stall as the
final perbsl etar.ed. but the Drum
tnond coached quintet effectually
broke up this defense.
Holm attempted qn almost hopele«s
shot from »he center of the court
that wasn't hopeless at all, but
si thered through the hoop- for the
t>lng q> 'ie of the game The e ve
wss now 11 to 11. lJnooln took time
out.
With hut three minute* to f .
Charoquls' fouled Witte who aai .
his fifth ftee to*# the game, rut
ting Lincoln in front, 12 to It.
With a one point advantage. Cow \
Browne s men again attefnpted to
stall, hut the Maroon forward wall
broke in to crush the attempt- In a
scramble for the hall. Nelson get the
leather all to himself on the sade,
from where he caged the winning
basket.
Tech stallevl throughout the re
raainlng moments of play, with ljn
..lr> attempt# to break up the de
fenae proving ineffectual.
