L?ti?V This Is the imcech mndc by
BUI Kennedy, of the SkceK .Kennedy
rarely makes any speeches or rash bas
ketball predictions. If the team wills he
smiles and if it loses he retains the same
smile and does net lay defeats te the
reieree.
Kennedy is the eldest manager in
local basketball. ITn l nn nrtirinnl
member of the Eastern League, but for
a number of years represented Jasper,
being the founder of that famous club
end which, according te reports, will
be back in the game next season.
The Skeeters have been teiwH nheut
for several weeks owing te the armory
being used for ether purposes. They
did net play at home last week nnd
will net show en the home fleer next
week as the automobile show is sched
uled at that time.
Twe Gaines This Week
Twe home games are scheduled this
week. Tonight the Reading Bears with
two scholastic stars in "Yummy" Arm-
priester and "Curly" Christian in the

the season te Camden.
A victory for the Jcrseymen will boost
tbem te a tie with Trenten for second
place and If they defeat the Coates en
Friday will be right en the heels of the
Celts. The club is playing better ball
tnan any team in the circuit.
Twe gnmes have been dropped In
extra periods en the home fleer, but
with Grimstead en hand the club Is bet
ter fitted with extra material than nny
of its rivals us the players can be
switched te any position. The Celts
displayed a weakness In this respect
and two of their last reversals went
sustained by the shift in the line-up
owing te the less of Ernie II lech. On
Friday night an extra contest has been
arranged with Paddy Livingstone's
railroad girls' team nnd lie North Bap
tist Church girls, of Camden.

clubs after the teams play.
itiacn ciud can maae use ei seven
players in the scries, but players can
only play for one club. Inasmuch as
several clubs have been making use of
the same players en nights when they
have net been engaged with ether
teams, the delegates present decided te
allow a Basketball Commission, which
will consist of William Myers, William
a. Dallas and Stephen O. Grauley, de

last year. The final score was 2."5 te 10.
Williamsport has one of the best
teams ever te set feet en Billy Pcnn's
soil. The co-ordination was as near
perfect as any schoolboy basketball
combination, and the boys were well
drilled In the game. Each of rfie play
ers had an eagle eye for the basket,
Catholic's long shots and the failure
of "Benes" Legan te make foul goals
count In his usual impressive manner
mny be given as the reasons for the
CahllliteV defeat. The team from
Bread and Vine streets took tee many
shots from the middle of the fleer.
True, a geed many went into the
basket, but most of the shots bounced
off the beard Inte the hands of one of
the visitors.
Trnyer and C. Emlck were the stars
of the game from a Williamsport angle.
Trayer elayed a brilliant game at
guard, and when A.Emlck was erased
from the game en personal fouls he
starred at center. C. Emlck was the
star goal-getter from the Held, regis
tering three times. All of his shots
were made In the second half. He tal
lied two In succession nt the start of
the period and then scored from the sloe
of the court in the middle of the period.

The Princeton swimmers were able

from Relmer nnd Bechtcl, of Penn.
Gig Genthncr, Pcnn's star sprint man.
was a double winner In the 50 and 100
yard sprints. In both of thct-e races
he was closely pressed by Heist, n team

of the meet.
Captain Mifflin Armstrong captured
his favorite event when he outscercd the
field in the fancy dive and took firbt
place. ,
Bursh, the lone entry of Penn In the
plunge, fell short of reaching the end
of the peel by a scant three inches.
Penn wen the relay race in handy
stvle, with some ten yards te spare.
'The Tiger pole team, intercollegiate
champions of last year, showed their
class by completely swamping the Bed

had but one geed chance te score from
near the goal, nnd then a Tiger player
spoiled it by sinking the Penn man nnd
recovering the bnll.

"Kise" Is Glad
PLAYERS ARE TRAVEN-WORN
By EDW1K J. POLLOCK
Leeabnrg. Fla March 1. When
they arrived in town here today Just
before tralnlnr camn activities were
scheduled te atart It wns discovered
thnt two members of the flying Phils
already had quit the club flat. The de
serters started for Leesburg with the
rest of the partv that left Philadelphia
Monday sight, but one night with a
big league club was enough. They said
their nu revelrs at Fayetteville, N. C.
yesterday.
The two birds who quit the heck am
net cause Manager Wllhelm any worry.
On the centrnry, he bade them geed-bye
with a smile en his face, and as they
departed he turned te Bill Bhettslinc
nnd said, "I'm glad they're off. New
we don't have te worry about them,"
Such was his attitude about two of
his fastest, charges, in fact his fastest,
for there is none with the club new
who would match his speed against
cither of the two who deserted.
Right new these two deserters are
still flying back te Philadelphia. Their
antics were queer when they" left
Shettsline and Wilhelm nt Fayetteville.
We've seen ether members of the Phils
go up In the air, but these two went up
In circles. They traveled in a circular
fashion up through the uir until they
had reached several hundred feet. Then
the trail was discovered, the tr'nll that
leads back home. Off they darted.
The fliers are expected back in their
nest up in Kensington beine time to
day. They are the preteges of Jehn
Warren, a worker in the Beach fac
tory, whose hobby is carrier pigeons.
The fastest filers of the flying Phils are
of this species.
The distance from Fayetteville te
Philadelphia h 407 miles as the rails
go. As the pigeons travel it may be
shorter. '
It is the longest flight ever attempted
ry the pigeons. One hns done(300 miles,
tut the ether has only 104) te Its credit.
The Fhlls are travel-worn ana arc
elad te hnve reached Leesburg. They
were disturbed at nn early hour this
morning. The express reached Iices
burg at 4 A. M., and tarries there for
only a few minutes before the final dash
te St. Petersburg.
All the athletes who were slated te
leave with Manager Wilhelm checked
