The appearance of the two former Ath letic stars will" serve to bolster the tailenders considerably. It was gen erally known in Boston that there was considerable discontent among tne players over tne installation ot Ed Barrow as manager during the absence of Barry, who was serving in the navy. Factions formed be tween the players with the result that the champions are now in sixth place, having won less than half their games.

THE YEAR OF HILE the prohibs are stepping couia nang earrings on, tne brewers are packing expressions, that .look like the claws of a hunerv owl. The Dec of Independence chirps that all men are born free and equally thirsty, but fromwhere we lean on the brass rail it looks as if some nimble-fingered prophiboozenist has marked the Dec. Markham's brother to the ox is also brother to the camel. Around July the Fifth the boys will be flat-wheeling around with their tongues hanging out so far that their tonsils will get sunburned. ' , - NO EXEMPTIONS. Everybody is snared in the prohibeerinist draft and there are no outs for silly feet or loose eyes. No exemptions for scrambled arches or wild whiskers in the toupee. Before the armistice the lads in uniform couldn't snitch a drink. Impossible to grab a glee powder in uniform. Which wasn't the tough part. The corrugated part was to keep the drink in your uniform after you got it there. The headache foundries were crocheting liquor out of everything from 17-year locusts to stuffed hair parlor sofas. After July we will all be in the army. There will be noth ing to drink and millions to drink it. . ' STAGGERING HOME FROM A STAG. There are some cits who could die of thirst in water up to their neck pieces. They'll be outta luck like a flea on an iron deer. There are a bunch of the birds we will miss though. F'r instance: THE WEEPING SOUSE. This bird would park his toes on the brass bar rail 'and inhale the snifters like a cow grabbing buttercups. About tne 11th stanza he sud denly remembers that there wasn't any Santa Claus and would bust loose with a set of tears that looked like the Canadian side of Niagara Falls. His shoulders would shimmy with sorrow and his frame would rattle like a rheumatic darky in two gulf breezes. He'd cry until he had to swim and then he'd cry because he couldn't swim. Prohibition is the plumber that will fix this leak. , ( ' THE LEANING JAG. . This cuckoo could make the Tower of Pisa look straighter than a left field foul line. After he had oiled up on a few dozen yards of nose rouge his cargo would shift and his left shoulder would swing up like a railroad semaphore signaling big wreck on west-bound siding. He'd start going around'in circles like a glass-eyed zebra on a Coney Island carousel. ThTs is a precarious souse, as all the responsibility is on one suspender strap. THE SINGINQ RUMMY. After absorbing his quota of near beer and far beer this baby would decide that Caruso was all wet. He'd warm up on a few notes from the "Banks of the Wabash" and then clatter into "The Moss Covered Bucket." The more moss on the bucket the better. That showed it hadn't been used in a long while. After gargling a couple of verses from "Sweet Annaline" he would sing all he knew of "Home, Sweet Home." He knew all of that song except the address. ' ' THE KISSING SOUSERINO. Before slamming the door from the outside, this baby had to kiss the barkeep by-by. His evening wasn't complete unless he blew his gin spangled breath on everybody in the works. Just as popular as camphor with a moth, but not quite so fragrant. He'd drink himself cross-eyed and then buzz, "Here's looking at you." When he wite, he wasn't, and when he wasn't he was.

' A y MASS ATHLETICS NOT GIVEN FAIR TRIAL 1N WEST Secret of Army's Success Passed Up by Big Ten Con .' ference Mentors In Fall of 1919, By KARL LEE. On the heels of stupendous Amer ican victories at the Inter-Allied "soldier-athletic" meet in Paris comes word direct from the lips of Coach "Bob" Zuppke, veteran ath letic director at the University of Illinois, the whirlwind "stub" of the western conference that "Big Ten mass athletics had failed." Really, it's hard to swallow. "Results," Bob reports, "were re ceived from only three universities, Chicago, Wisconsin and Illinois. Rain interfered with plans of other universities." So that's it. The plan wasn't given a trial. It would be a gross injustice to the realm of collegiate sports to say that "mass athletics had failed." Mass Brings Success. For perhaps prejudice reasons the writer can't see anything but "massed" athletics. That which made Carlysle famousin the days of Glen Warner, thatwhlch made berths at Annapolis and West Point coveted, that which, if you please, made the marines indomitable at Chateau Thierry is nothing more nor less than "mass athletics." Nebraska woefully lacks' this sort of athletic "craze' Yet it is the "mass" of high school and secondary colleges, running lull blast through out the state,- small in attendance but keen in competition, that has furnished the superb development, the Intensity of interest necessary to the success of Cornhusker football teams. Why not other (earns? , Publicity Develops Field! Three years ago The Bee carried on a constructive campaign boost ing high school basket ball and foot ball teams of the state. Sport writ ers in t,his office carefully followed the trend of high school athletics, insignificant as they seemed at. the time, giving space to what seemed small competitions and following ud with "dope"1, stories. Jn two years the state hieh school basket-ball tournament held annu ally at Lincolln had, growri from an attendance of 60 and less teams to more than 12S teams. State univer sity authorities, including Dr. Stew art and "Jumbo" Stiehm. were over joyed.

"Setting Up Exercises." While with the marines at Boston a year ago, the writer organized and coached a provisional bSsket ball squad at the Boston Navy yard that met and held its own with all col legiate comers of the east, including crack New England amateur fives.
