left the team early last week.

players and students, and is regarded as
an authbrlly'on inside base ball. This Is
only his second year on a Crelghton team.
He played there three years ago, but left

and hat often made opposing third base

JNBW TOnK. May 3,-The general opln-
Ion that the American tennis team wilt
survlye the preliminary matches and
thereby be entitled to compete In tha
Davis cup match In Kngtand In July, hoa
received credible support from the
enemy, so to speak. Stanley N. Doust,
one of the players on tho Australian
team which Is to play the trial matches
In June, believes that tho American plnr
ors, on paper, at least, figure to win the
trial gamea against tha team of which
ho Is a member. Here- la what he says
regarding the chances- of the teams In
the trial matches:
"As regards the American match, on
paper, It looks as If the home team would
win, but as one of the Australasian team
I have a ict or sneaking feeling that a
surprise may be effocted. I do not say
this In the spirit of boastfulness, but
because I honestly believe we have a
sporting chance. Our team Includes Hor
ace Rice, A. II. Jones and myself, Ye
arc all seasoned match players and there-.
fnrc will not be troubled with nervous
ness or anxiety. Then the American
services and the brilliant volleying will
not present the same amount of terrors
to us as It would to the uninitiated.
A lefthander
"Rice Is a lefthanded. ntayer. who has
represented New South "Wales against
Victoria no fewer than twenty-four times.
He is a better singles player than doubles.
and ia mostly found playing from the
base line. Ills backhand drives are his
specialty,, and he is capable of passing
any vdlleyer with those strokes either
side. 1I played Dixon, the English cap.
tain, three times last season, and won
two out of, the three. A. 13. Jones has
been represented as a player with a very
similar stylo to that of H. U Doherty.
Ha Is today perhaps tha best all round
player In Australia. In singles, of cours,
h,e Is Hot up to the standard of Norman
Ilrookes, - but In a -men's doubles he Is
equal to that famous player, and decid
edly his superior ia a mixed, double. Ha
depends more upon his volleying than his
ground shots, although he Is quite good
off the ground, but his extraordinary
quickness of eye and his subtle wrist
make him a vary hard man to beat when
he gets to- the net. F. O. tawe found
this tho case whon they met lit "Austra
lia. Ills, stamina is rather against him
in a long five set match, hut ha has
lately gone In for physical culture, which
has Improved him greatly in this re-
speot
Cnelc Kxperlence.
'"Now, the American team may be com
posed of R, N. Williams and Mo Lough,
lln. It that la so, then Australasia should
have a fair chance, because although.
they may hava mich be.tte and nuoh
more severe atroKcs, yet they lack our
experience. McLoughlln, on his day, Is
capable pf beating, anyone In the world.
He Is a whirlwind, and while he Is on
his gamo he metaphorically blows one
right off the court lit has a very ac
centuated American style His service la
moat severe, but to make It he has to
contort his body so much that the wonder
la that he does not injurq himself. Any
how, It la a. very difficult service to con-
trol, because, he gets so much 'work' on
to It) that the break takes you right out
of the court unless on is gifted with the
same quick eye aa Brookes, who stands
well Inside the basa line, and, take th
ball as It rises.
"Williams only returned to America

Ill-fated Titanic II waa beaten by Mo
Loughltn after a five set match In tha
American national championship. Of
courte the American team may be com
posed of other players, such aa Beala'
Wright, Larned and Bundy, hut on this
side the names that come quickest to
mind are WUUama and McLoughlln.

NEW HAVEN, Conn.. May 3.-Frank U
&ulmby, coach of the Yale base ball
team' In' discussing tho athletic tourna
ment at tho New Haven University, said
recently! "There is not an undergraduate
now in ccAlcgo who hoa known how it
feels to play on a championship team.
This is most deplorable. I .bellevo that
it has never occurred before that Ynlo
has had no championships In any of- tho
four major sports during the three or
tour years of any one undergraduate.
Distinctly, then. It is up to base ball,
track and crew this spring to prevent by
some meana the creating of, any such, un
happy reoord. I firmly bqlleve that Yolo's
greatest need today Is not money, " nor
buildings, nor even a stadium, but right
now, immediately, Yalo needs a champion
ship and needs It more for Its own wel
fare, than any other one thing. It needs
It for the sake of Its devoted alumni all
over the world, tor the sake of its Self-
respect, for the proud record of many
past victories, but' most of all for' you
undergraduates.
Nerd I'roper .Spirit,
"The second badly needed element. In
my opinion. Is the real 'get together
spirit, a common meeting placewHere all
undergraduates of ail .departments can
meet on the same footing, where you can
sing Yale songs, got to know one another
and boost Yale. What a tremendously
ppwerfUl thing it would be for Yale If
the entire body of men who welcomed
Taft, one of Yale's greatest sons, back
to his old home could be gathered to
gether several times a year with a com
mon purpose to boost Yolo's name and
fame.
"Yale has never had a finer lot of men
than thoso in college, but you do not go
together except In small crowds; there
seems to be no' ploco nor occasion to do
so, You seem to have lacked, the push
Ip athletics largely due, I 'believe, to tho
scarcity of victories, and you do not
know the satisfaction ot winning, it is
self-evident that Yale is not suffering
for lack of material, and although she
has suffered heretofore very consider
ably from lack of playing fields and fa
cilities, this has been rectified, and now
if correctly' handled many men on the
class teams should bo developed Into unt
vcrslty material,"

Tho. Crelghton varsity base ball team
wll havo' Its first real test next Satur
day when It playa Cother on Crelghton
field. This Is tho first time tho two In
stitutions havo met on the diamond and
a hard game Is expected. Cotner admin
istered a hard drubbing to -Omaha uni
versity, while Crelghton did likewise.
rinsed 6n the showing of -the two teams
In these games It should be even money.
Cotner batters took a liking to the Omaha
pitchers, while Crelghton is considered
strong In the hitting department.
Crelghton la weaker than at tho start
of the season, despite the hard practice.
The' loss of Captain Miller would knock
a. big hole In tho chances ot any tefcm,
as he was one ot the best all-round col
lege ball playerB In- the west. 'He was a
hitter ot the Lajolo type and was ex
tremely crafty when working behind tba
bat. He had the faculty of studying
ybunf pitchers and studied his batters.
Miller s loss waa not felt so badly as
it might have been, becausa of the pres
ence of Pass, another husky, who haa
had much experience behind the plate
and could do all the catching It neces
sary. Pass Is also a aluggcr having
carried the title qf fence "buster slnc,
coming to Crelghton this year. Re
caught for Sacred Heart college tn Den-
ver last year. Another setback waa
colved, however.. Thursday,. whn,T'aa
had tho little finger of his tbrawinr.hana
badly masked while indulging In a elasjs
game. While. It Is now certain that no
bones were broken, tha hand is so badly
lacerated and bruised that ho will not be
fit for. duty for some UmB- W is possi
ble that he may start ho gamo agatosi
Cotnor rather than bring Itussum in
from first base and upset the Infield.
The Infield remains intact, with Kelly
at third, McKee and Kane at short.
Coady at second and RUBsum at first.
Kelly -is playing in grand form nt third,
At short MoKeo has a slight edge, but
Kane is strong. MoKee Is at professional
department student, and may leave' town
at any time, and Kane will be ready
to fill his position. Vandiver, the other
candidate tor seqond base, has gone home
and Coady, is performing .In fast time at
second.
Outfield Strong.
In tho outfield nro. Daly, Howard and
Hplbrdok. All threa are hitting the ball
on the nose and are good men to have
up In a pinch. Holbrook lias not had
the experience of the 'other two, but Is a
comer.
The loss of Madden put a enmp in the
pitching department. Bets, McOulre and
daffney ore tho remaining twtrlers. Bet
and McQuire both worked in nlco shape
agnlnst Omaha High school last Saturday.
After Cotner feomea the btir game ot

Filled irltU Good, Event.
To say that the season will be, filled to
overflowing with good rowing is but But-
ting It mildly.
Barring accidents, the month of May
will thresh out the wheat and show up
the chaff of all our big varsity crews,
with the exception of Yale. Wisconsin
and, perhaps, Syraouse. Primarily, on
May 10 we shall know the relative speeds
of Harvard, Pennsylvania and Princeton.
Then the very next week will tell by
comparison just where Columbia stands
with these three, as wU aa with Annapo
lis, when It meta tha Tigers and Mid
dles on Carnegie lake. And still another
short seven doya will, by the same token,
show exaotly where, Cornel I rates with
all of them, for the Crimson eight win
row with these topnotchers of so many
years. Also on th earn day the 25th
the Quakers and the Sailors will meet
on the Severn and throw out a still fur
ther Una for ultimate comparison. And
thus early we can. excepting- untoward
happenings, as aforesaid, place Cornell,
Columbia, Harvard, Annapolis, Prince-
ton and. Pennsylvania tn ihelr proper rel
ative positions.
