There Is no doubt that Folwcll W a R.eat conch. The wilier has followed his work for years and the new coach's iccurl bears this out. At WashinRto n and Jefterson last year, he took a squad of very grcon material and turned out one of the strotiRCst teams In the Kast. Itefore the season started, he mad his famous "rash" statement of "I'll take all of the blame If this team .1 e . . boat Yale." At that time he was laughed at. as even the most oul it ers did not believe that the eleven had a chance to bent Hethnny College. It u mil cut as Folwell predicted, however, and the team went through the season win ning all of the Rames but one. Folwcll Is a modem coach. It was he who tlrst saw the P"""""'1; "f ""J Bhort forward pass and worked It successfully In the Yale game This baseb. 11 pass" revolutionized the game last year and was adopted by all of the k. d m, cache before the season was over.

Is worthy of notice In view of the fact that the eugue Is .l it o finish Ite first year of existence. It Is doubtful if a bus ietlM.il rogue f hto nature has ever before had such a meteoric career and Kilned the Intere.t "many devotees of the sport. Last Tuesday night 1C37 fans paid admission to tho playing hall at 26th and Dauphin streets, and this crowd Is looked upon .. one of the largest ever present at a basketball game in Philadelphia, barring. of course, the Ka.stern League. The Ipagoo is the outgrowth of the Industrial Haseball League, recently organised, and was brought Into being by tho efforts of Cadwallader li lranklln . . 'n, -,,r,.- vrf!n, itnili men have clean sports nt heart and are good organizers, as mil as enthusiastic workers for anything athletic.

Uvery day you lead So 1 eobl for fiViUO; demands $1o,oo In which their high athletics, and applications for next year are already at hand. To accept them the biggest basketball league In the country nil would mean tho formation of Kahanamoku to Return to Philadelphia Philadelphia lovers of swimming will have n chance to see the greatest swimmer In short distances tho world has ever known when Duke Kahanamoku. the marvelous Hawaiian, holder of virtually all of the short records In his .jeclaltles. competes In this city In April. Plans are already under way to brlns him to this country at that time, and this city has been placed on tho list of cities In which ho will compete. Tho visit of this wonderful Hawaiian swimmer to this city is ebpeclally appropriate In view of the fact that ho was made into the champion by a Phtladelphlan in the tank at the I'nlvcrslty of Pennsylvania four years ago this April. In 191'J when the Duko came to this country to try for tho American swimming team that was to compete In tho Olympic games In Stockholm, Sweden, ho was a marvelous nutural swimmer, but not so skilled nnd fast as some of the American and Australian waterdogs. Ho was given tho courtesy of tho University of Pennsylvania pool in j Welghtman Hall by tho Ited and Blue authorities and Georgo Klstler, tho vfteran coach of Penn's swimmers, tho man who developed such marvelous wlramers as Carroll Sehaeffer. Shryock and uldcd In making many of Amer lea's greatest performers in the water, noted the defects In his kick ami In his turning In the tank, and volunteered to help him overcomo tho troubles.. Kistlcr Important Factor in Hawaiian's Progress Klstler applied himsclf.wlth a will and for several weeks gave Kahanamoku attention, with the result that tho Duke clipped seconds off his fastest tlm . Wlien he went abroad to tho Olympics he won the short-distance championships from the best swimmers In the world und broke all world's records. He was a prime favorite abroad and was entertained by the various titled sportsmen abroad. Since the Olympics tho Duko has been continuing his assault upon records und has made three trips to this country, hut has always competed In San IVanclsoi and Los Angeles alone. At those place he continued to win hands down and tumble the records. This year he repeated In tho A. A. I', chain ylonshlps at the Exposition in San F,i-i"i, California. i-.Ii;r5iB3TJirL2ii A. A. U. Will Pay His Expenses The Amateur Athletic Union decided that If he would visit this country and tour this year It would provide a great ImpetUH to tho sport of swimming, und accordingly, the Illinois Athletic Club has subscribed a fund to pay his expenses. This money has been placed In the hands of the A. A. II, for proper disbursement. When the list of cities was considered the Duke requested Hint Phlla delphla he placed on the list, owing to the sentimental feeling he has for Penu und Coach Klstler. Incidentally It might be mentioned that tho man who flrqt brought the Duke out and brought him to this country Is a former Phlla iklphlap, now living in the Hawaiian Islands, Lew Henderson. Jt Is expected that Penn will arrange a special meet for tho Duke while he la In this city. In which ho will concede big handicaps to the local short -distance stars and give the Philadelphia swimming lovers a chance to see I he greatest swimmer In the world in action. pr tor middleweight lnuicls. and Clarke, who is making Alleuluwn his home at the pii-sent time.
