Why Im Hockey Is Popular Here ANY sport that requires the maximum of endurance, skill and courage makes n populnr appeal. Football. baseball, tennis, basketball nnd other athletic branches combine everything that goes to make it interesting for the competitor and entertaining for the spectator. The sport that succeeds must have two appeals first to the athlete and secondly to the one that supports that spurt the follower. The latest winter indoor sport that has come to this city Is ice hockey. And make no mistake this sport is here to stay. It takes just as much courage, .skill, en durance, speed nnd science to pb? this game as any in the sporting reportoir. Ice hockey is football on ice skates Skating in it self is an art To guide 11 little rubber disc down the ice with nn arm of club wielders waiting for mi. elude these guardians nnd successfully shoot the puck through the goal tender for a point is nn art. Iu footba.11 the lust ten yards always is the hnrdest and in lee hockey that ti tin I Ave yards the real effort is what counts or does not count. Every sport has its celebrity. Baseball has its Itabe Ruth, football its Jim Thorpe, tennis its Tilden, the turf its Man O'War. golf in Chick I'vans. rowing its Jack LOCAL CAGE FIVES Managers Benrtls and Myers Have Succeeded in Bol stering Line-Ups While n merry battle is being waged nmong the first division team c f the Kastern Basketball League for first position in the closing week of the first (if o.nni 1. i,f i-n . .,... i.ni,,,. fcUgcd to kop out of the cellar and the two local Club? ate taking a prominent. rite tnkint? n. nrominent I"TonlKht at Music Fund Hall.

Hockey has been the national sport in anndn for ninny jears. Naturally tbc game is much further ad vanced there than hero. But it remained for Hobey Baker to bo developed nnd to place this couiitrj on the ice hockey map. Baker made his reputation while skating under tho colors of the St. Nicholas team. Baker, how ever, learned to skate on tho ponds around Cynwyd, de veloped his hockey skill nt St. Paul's School, the cradlo of ice hockey in America, nnd made his national rcpututloli while representing 1'rlnceton I'nlverslty nnd the St. Nicholas Club. TpAKKll has gone but tome new ice hockey stars have ti begun to shinr. and one of the most brilliant 111 the Kait riijht now is Eddie Hill, former Cornell hnllbaeli. cr-tcammatc of Hobey linker at St. Xicholas ami the present captain 0 fe Quaker City team. Play Modern Hockey lie XI associated in business with Thornton Baker, brother of the late Hobey. Hcnrinucs, another member of the Quaker City team, is a member of the B.iker firm in Mannvunk. Philadelphia will be well represented in ice hockey this j car. Quaker City has not lost n cum' thi nenon. despite the fact that it has been weakened in every game. First it lost Werner Schnanr. the seventeen-year-old Brvn Athyn star, who wan stopped by the Bryn Athyn otu'clals. Next P. W. Wannmaker. the former Dart mouth captain, was forced out of tho line-up and to tho t'niverslty Hospital with nn injured nrm. Quaker City plays modern hockey. This is due to the fnct that it hns n. real coach in Stephen A. Dion, former captain of the Winncpeg Victorias, one of the greatest amateur teams ever developed in Canada. The combination of Dion and Hill is producing. Hddic Hill is a real star. It was his nggressive work that twice defeated the strong St. Nicholas team nt the Ice Palace this yenr. Last Thursday night he came through with the gonl thnt tied the scorn, mnking a difficult shot from the side of the rink. Uitor he carried the disc down tho Ice through n broken field nnd completed his work by passing the puck to Crawford for the winning Miot. lllT-h is the man around vham the play ii built. It tens a lirickley, then a Slahan. then a Casey icho 'ims the combination man that made Harvard a potcer m football. In ice hockey it i nrrciary fo have the same star for a feint. And Fddie Hill is the man.
