Light Team Now Leads Intercollegiate Basket
ball League and Will Be Tied With Prince
ton if Tigers Defeat Ithacans Next Week
ION JOURDET'S University of Pennsylvania basketball flvo closed a wonderful
i Beason with a brilliant victory over Cornoll Inst night. This victory nsBiires
the Bed and Blue of at least a tie for first place, and If Prlncoton falls to triumph
over Cornell next weok.Ponn will bo crowned champions for tho first time since
Charley Kelnath won the championship with a sensational exhibition against
Columbia. -
The players wero tho ones who won the games and must bo given credit for
their grand showing, but had It not been for tho tireless effort and keen dltect
Ins ability of Jourdet, tho triumph would have beon Impossible. Ponn won out
oVer the greatest odds a Red and Blue five ever encountorod.
Every team In tho league outweighed the light Penn aggregation nbout 20
pounds to the man. Penn's opponents wero of Ideal build for tho Intercollegiate
gamo as It is now played, and nt the start of the Benson Jourdet apparently had a
nopeiess tasic on nis nanus, his memous wero cruiciscu at. mo stun, um mu re
mit proves tho coach was right,
Jourdet Adopted New System
Jourdet realized that ho must perfect his teamwork and use a system which
had never been tried, If he was to get results under such a handicap. It was
another Instanco whoro speed and brains won over brute strength end weight.
By this we do not mean to Infor that Penn's opponents lacked gray matter, but
that thoy did not apply It as well 03 did the Rod and Blue.
Cornell was beaten the only way It could bo conquered by a small team In Its
own hall, and It was predicted in this column last Monday that McNIchol's superior
foul throwing would turn tho tldo If Penn got tho Jump on tho Ithacans. It also
was suggostod that Penn probably would play flvo men on defense If It over sc
oured a lead of two or threo points. This Is exactly what was done
During tho entlro second half tho Penn team lined Itself up across tho floor
every time a Cornell player had tho ball. With such a defenBe Cornell was power
loss In the long, narrow hall. The Ithacans outscorod Penn from the field, but
the margin was not sufficient to offsot McNIchol's grand work, and Cornell did not
tally nearly as much as had been oxpected.
If tho Cornell team does not go to pieces after tho unexpected clofe.it at tho
hands of Ponn, tho Ithacans probably will beat Prlncoton, giving Penn the title. Tho
Tlgera play nn entirely different stylo from Ponn, and will llnd that tho Cornell
floor gives tho Ithacans a tremendous ndvantngo, If the defensive play Is not un
usually close. If tho game Is open, as It probably will be, Cornell should win.
Casslgnol Looks Like Good Opponent for Hoppe
Ftrmln Casslgnol, the French bllllardlst, who Is touring this country with
Welker Cochran, continues to make amazing runs, and It seems as If a man has at
last been found who can glvo tho wizard, Willie Hoppo a close battle. In every
' city whero ho has played Casslgnol has made a great Impression. Ho Is following
the Hoppe-Yamada schedule whenever It Is possible, as ho wants tho billiard
enthusiasts to reallzo that he Is entitled to a match.
There Is no chance for a match until tho mlddlo of next winter, If Hoppo goes
through with his proposed tour. Casslgnol insists that ho will stay In this country
until he moots Hoppo or until tho champion agrees to moot him. Billiard ONperts
believe Casslgnol would havo a great chance with Hoppo If he got tho Jump on tho
champion, but It Is contended that tho Frenchman would go to pieces If Hoppo
got oft to a big lead, as ho generally does.
Tho reported death of Calvin Demarest, the former national amateur cham
pion, and later a sensational professional until his health broke, and the presence
of Casslgnol in this country recall the match between these players In Paris.
In this match of 1000 points In 250-polnt blocks, Demarest never oven had a shot
after going all the way to France for tho match. Casslgnol won the bank each
evening and never missed, running his 250 points out whllo Demarest Just hold
bis cue. It was one of tho most remarkable matchos In tho history of tho gnme.
Wagner Chaperon of Pirate Players
Honus Wagner will lead tho second detachment of Pirates to Hot Springs on
Saturday. It may be tho last training trip for the famous Teuton, as ho Intends
to retire" Unless his work Is nearer to tho old standard than It was last season.
Three other wonderful veterans may bq taking their last Journey. Thoy are
Lajole, Mathowson and Plank.
Roy Mack, Connie's eldest son, probably will accept tho position of secretary
of tho Baltimore International League Club. Roy has decided to pass up college
to break Into baseball. With Eddie Collins, Fritz Malscl and Jack Dunn owning
the majority of the stock In the Baltimore Club, a strong team should bo turned
out, as Dunn will bo kept protty well Informed on tho deslrablo youngsters about
to bo passed up by the major leaguo clubs for further seasoning.
Collins probably haB about eight years of major league ball before him as a
tar, If he cares to contlnuo In tho game that long; but It Is said that Eddie wants
to bo something more than a player, and' If he Is successful In his Baltimore
venture may branch out as a full-fledged ownor within a few years. It Is almost
certain he will be offered a managerial position soon, but he aspires higher than
that.
Brown Holds New indoor Title
It Is asserted that Brown, of Penn State, broke tho world's 70-yard Indoor high
hurdle record In the semifinal heat In Now York Saturday night. In the final heat
Starr, of Cornell, who had been beaten three yards by Brown In tho semifinal,
won when Brown trlppod going over a hurdlo and lost several yards. This "dark
horse" may completely upset tho dope during tho outdoor season.
State College's track teams are Improving wonderfully since Coach Billy
Martin has succeeded In Interesting the boys in this branch of athletics, which
was ignored until the former Penn sprinter took charge of tho training. State
will send a powerful team to this city for tho Meadowbrook games Saturday night
and for the Relay Carnival.
A New Era of Tennis Begun in Philadelphia
Unquestionably the tennis tournaments completed last evening at tho 1st
Regiment Armory under the auspices of the Sportsman's Show organization
marks a new era in Philadelphia tennlsdom. While all of the crack local players
were not entered In the meet, there were enough to make a splendid and rep
resentative showing.
Not the least pleasing aspect of the tennis meeting was the fact that It was
sot confined to men's singles and doubles. The women nlso had singles and
doubles tournaments and there was a Junior tournament as well, which
virtually gave every player In the city a chance to play, regardless of age, sex
or club membership.
The tournaments were not held under the auspices of the U. S. N. L. T. A.,
Consequently all amateur entries were received by Paul Gibbons. Incidentally
It might be remarked that Glbbops made a remarkable record In running off
Ave separate tournaments on one lone court In Just a little over a week, the same
time that it takes to run the average tournament where the number of courts
la almost unlimited.
Willis Davis a Popular Victor
Willis E. Davis, Penn'a crack tennis player and former California champion,
.was a, popular victor at the Indoor tournament. Davis put up a consistently
"Ullant game in every match In which he was entered. Like the other entrants,
jjavis was not in practice, yet It did not take him long to come to himself; slash
ing He ball, fore and back-handed, with that reckless abandon for which the
"natfveeons" are famous,
William T. Tllden, 2d, who was runner-up, meeting Davis In the finals, was
also In fine form. Davis' victory over Tilden was gained by a very narrow
margin. It took Davis four sets to win, and there was never a time during the
third and fourth sets when a little luck would not have turned the tide.
In his match with Wallace F. Johnson, one-time national lawn tennis runner
up, Tllden played not only the best comparative tennis of his career, that is
considering' hla condition, but he played by far the best game of any man in the
tournament, not even excepting Davis, the ultimate winner. Had Tllden been
eblo to play with the same speed and accuracy against Davis that he used against
Johnson, he would have won in three sets.
George T, Adce, president of the National Lawn Tennis Association, an
nounced last night that the Eastern doubles championship tourney has been
awarded to the Longwood Club, of Boston, and would start pn July 24. Ttie West
ern end has been awarded to the Onwentsla Club, of Chicago, and will take place
on August 6.

PITTSBURGH PIRATES HAVE NOT
TO BE IN RUNNING FOR
Jimmy Callahan Will
Have a Team That
May or May Not
Figure for Pennant
By CHANDLER D. RICIITER
AIITICLB XIII
PlTTSnURCJlI scribes declare that tho
Pirates should havo a great year bo
catiso over body Insists on picking them
to light for last placo. They point out
that tho Phils were picked for a second
division berth last year nnd won tho
pennant. They also becomo very much
riled when any ono suggests that tho
Pirates look like cellar-phamplons, but
nevertheless wo feel that wo must Join
tho others and pick Callahan's tenm for
a lowly position In tho second division.
Perhnps Jimmy Callahan will complete
ly upset tho dopo nnd pull a Pnt Moran
trick of turning a poor looking team Into
a pennant winner, but Jimmy had plenty
of tlmo and excellent material In Chi
cago and failed to produco a winner. Tho
Pirates could finish no better than fourth
last season in a leaguo which was woes
fully weak. They havo not strengthened
to any great extent, nnd It Is hard to see
how they can be figured In the race at
nil.
The YouiiRsters
It Is posslblo that ono or two sensational
youngsters may bo uncovered. If thoy are,
tho Pltatcs will look fairly good, as Calla
han has tho foundation for an excellent
pitching stnlf If Mamnux and Adams aro
as good ns last year.
Mamaux Is one of the best young pitch
ers In the country and should Improve,
but ono can never tell about young hurl
ers. Wllllo Doak wns a sensation In
1914, but could not get going In 1915. The
samo was truo of Bubc Dressier, Chal
mers and others who have pitched sensa
tional ball In their first season, only to
have n bad year following.
Adams is a certnlnty. He knows how
to pitch nnd ns long ns ho can keep free
from Injuries Is sure to be a hard man
to bent. Last season Adams did not havo
such a good record, but he pitched grand
ball. He was unfortunate In being forced
to oppose tho star nlabman ot tho oppos
ing team nlmost every time ho went to
the mound.
Of the rcBt of the Btaff Bob Harmon
should bo cffectlvo enough to win a lot
of games If he had a good club behind
him. GlvetPthrco runs, Harmon Is a hard
man to beat. He pitched great ball nfter
mldseason last year, but tho Pirates could
not get him the runs and he was a steady
loser.
Flvo left-handers will go to the training
camp, and It Is likely three of these will
be retained. Vie Moran, purchased from
the Feds, and Kantlehner appear to be
certainties, while Cooper should have little
trouble beating out Kelly, the Southern
Leaguo recruit, and Blattery If ho returns
to his 1914 form. In 1914 Cooper looked

will como back.
Pirntcs Weak
After considering tho pitchers, and pos
sibly tho catchors, If Arthur Wilson, pur
chased from the Cubs, and Walter
Schmidt, the highly touted San Francisco
catcher, live up to expectations, thcro is
little to the rest of the Pirate outfit unless
thoy Improve 100 per cent. Tho catching
will bo well taken care of If Wilson and
Schmidt como through with good woik,
as tho veteran Gibson Is still a valuable
and reliable man.
Individually, tho Infield may not size up
so weak, but collectively It Is ns weak ns
any In cither leaguo. Tho wonderful
Wagnor is btlll at short and probably will
be, but ho Is far from the Wagner ot old.
Wagner lias been slipping fast, but as yet
Clarke and Callahan have been unable to
find any ono as valuable as the famous
veteran. Mechanically, Wagner Is going
back, but he still possesses a wonderful
baseball head, which makes his presence
In the field a necessity.
Johnston, nt first, played excellent ball
last season, and It he gets off to a good
start should have another good year, bet
he 1h. btlll below Daubert, Luderus, Saler,
Merklo nnd Konoy. The latter did not fill

reasons, nnd ho probably will demonstrate
to tho satisfaction of Pittsburgh fans that
ho Is a hotter man than Johnston.
Great things wero expected of Balrd and
Vlox last year, but neither could hit, and
It Is not likely they will lilt, as both nre
marks for a good curvo ball. In 1914
Vlox hit nt n terrific clip for threo months,
but ho gradually slipped back ns the
pitchers learned his weakness. If Balrd
does not overcome the habit of chasing
curve balls. It Is likely Leonard or Schultz
will beat him for tho position.
Leonard played oxcellont ball nt Colum
bus, nnd Is duo to Improve, whllo Schultz
showed enough at Brooklyn to cause tho
fans to protest when Ilohlnson sent him
to Chicago. Tho Windy City fans could
not understand It when Brcsnnhan nlso
turned him loose. Perhaps there Is an ex
cellent reason why ho will not lit Into a
manager's plans, but If there Is It has
never been npparent.
It Is believed that tho outfield will lino
up with Hlnchman In right. Barney in
centro and Carey In left. It Is a fair out
field, but not In tho samo class with four
others In the National League. Hlnchman
Is no "spring chicken," despite tho claims
that ho Is not 30 years old, and he surely
will bo no better than In 1915, which was
a good year for the local boy.
BUI has been playing ball a long tlmo
and was a mighty big man IB years ago.
He probably Is nt least 35 nnd is not likely
to Improve, with a great possibility that
he will go back. Barney wns a fnllure In
New York In a brief trial, but looked good
to Pittsburgh fans last fall. Sovoral ex
cellent judges of young talent believe he
will develop Into a star, but they do not
think ho will be of great valuo to a
major leaguo team for a year or two.
'Marx Carey In left was a bitter disap
pointment In 1915. Caroy Is young, and
should be nblo to como back with a good
year, but even If he Is tho Carey of 1911
the outfield will not bo strong enough to
counterbalance the weak Infield.
Given Fair Chance
Jimmy Callahan Is serving his first year
as manager of tho Corsairs. Callahan told
the writer he believed that there wero
a few positions which needed strength
ening, but that ho did not feel that any
changes should be made until tho men
have all had a fair chance to show their
ability beforo him,
Callahan frankly admits that he has
seen little of the National League teams
In recent years and does not know Just
where he stands. He Is confident he will
make good if he Is given a chanco to
rebuild, In case tho present aggregation
falls to meet with his approval.
While Callahan has never been known
to find fault with his surroundings In
Chicago, he Is said to have been dis
satisfied because Comlskey did not give
him a chance to develop Instead of load
lng up with veteran stars. During his
three-year retirement Callahan ran a City
League team In Chicago and turned out
several men now In the major leagues.
Ho believes he will repeat In Pittsburgh
If given an opportunity.
