LOUIS Y. W. C. A.
A NEBRASKA GRADUATE OF 1909
Don't
Like Name of "Phillies" Dis
proves Theories Regarding Fem
inine Ability to Throw Girls'
Team at Columbia.
St, Louis, Mo., April G. "Soak It to
contor for four sacks, and hit tho dirt
if It's close at tho pan!!!"
Such expressions as this may be
added to tho vernacular at tho Young"
Women's Christian association this
summer,, for tho national gamo is now
part of tho curriculum.
Basketball and porchesl aro all very
well for tho dull wlntor months, but
.tho dusty diamond and' tho bounding
horsohlde havo boon voted tho modish
thing by the girls of tho Y. W. C. A.,
when the grass is on the meadow.
VIslonsjot a oozy country clubhouse,
surrounded by shado trees and wind
ing walks, with a diamond onclosod by
an artistic and tall fence close at
hand, havo haunted the girls since
Miss Ann Wyatt, physical instructor,
announced that basoball would bo de
rigour It Js: planned, to. raise, tho
funds for tho clubhouse by subscrip
tions, and meanwhile the "team" will
get Into sUapo' at never mind whore.
Wrong Theory.
Old fans and scientists of other
kinds havo always hold that but one
Hilng stood between woman and tho
gamo of baseball. That thing Is tho
inadaptability of flexors and extensors
of the fomalo arm to throw an out
shoot. Miss Wyatt.is a very llvo dem
onstration of tho Inaccuracy of this
theory, and tho only reason sho Is not
twirling in tho big leagues is tho ban
put on hor sex.
Miss Wyatt can pitch some. Sho is
too modest to say just how much, but
doubting Thomases may try their skill
at batting 'em out while sho Is Jn tho.
box aftor tho big fonco Is orocted
about tho diamond. Sho is now im
parting tho art of tossing knuckle
balls and horsoshoo curvos to tne
MIsbob Florence Sabm and Matilda
Zeltman, In order that they may go to
the firing line when tho season Is un
der way.
Tho qnly-Ualng that Is now bpthor-Wrtbff-y,
W. C. A. girls la to nnd a
sultablo namo for tho team. Tho toam
must not bo too mascullno nor yet too
i feminine, too staid nor In the leaat un
dignified. So far tho right namo has
not como along, and it la fearod tht
public may take to tho suggestion of.
one volunteer, "Phillies," which Is
considered unpatriotic for a St. Louis
aggregation.
A Lincoln Girl.
Miss Wyatt Is a daughter of Mrs.
Ella W. Wyatt, who lives at'l453 U
street. She was a graduato pf the
Univorslty of Nebraska In tho normal
.training gymnastic courso in 1909. Sho
formerly attended, tho Lincoln high
school.
Miss Wyatt was ono of tho most
popular girls In school in her under
graduate days. Sho was a momber of
tho Black Masque and Silver Serpent
honorary societies and was on tho
Cornhusker- board. Sho was always
very prominent In Y. WV C. A. work.
Athletically, thpso who knew her at
the university did not suspect tho tal
ent ,n the national gamo described by
th'o St. Louis dispatch. Miss Wyatt
was a star In basketball, making tho
varsity girls' team In hor freshman
year and playing four years. Sho was
considered ono of tho most athletic
women in scnooi, out nor race as a
pitcher waB. not equal In any sense
to that of Matthewson or Mordecal
Brown.
Columbia Girls.
Basoball has, been officially added
to the list, of approved sports for
women's colleges by Athletic In
structor Edgar Faubot of Barnard,
the women's department of Columbia
university. With the approval of tho
faculty, class teams have been organ
ized and preliminary spring -practice

Interclass games for tho college chum-
plonshlp and a trophy promises to bo

Tho Barnard girls will play on n

bases, mitts, bats and othor accou
trements from a regulation sporting
goods house. They will play genu
lno baseball, with all Its con plications
and regulations. Thero will oo two
changes In tho game, however a
heavier ball will be usod, necessitat
ing undorhand pitching, and there will
bo no stealing of bases.
