could hnte been u-ed, there wbb no necessity te call en his tervlcei.
,' Klaess and Jeffries were th forwards; James the center, nnd I.eeb and
Fester the guard en the team which took the tloer In that memorable fiame
against Pennt-yhanla at the beginning of last spring. Later Sldenstlcker
replaced Klaess. Thla veteran combination enables Zahn te depend en con
fidence nnd experience. He need only develop his players In the finer pelnta
of the game.
Jack Jeffries, a Narberth boy. will captain the Tigers and a better leader
could net have been chosen. lie is an uggresslve, determined fighter en the
court who does net allow the heat of conflict te melt his idea of fairness and
pertsmanship. Although a hard player, Jeffries never resorts te the shady
tricks of the game.
1I7IT7T tuch a squad and such a raptim, an should repeat his
" triumph of last year, but he it sure te meet item stuff in the
tray of oppejifion from the ether members of the league.
Jee Fogarty
.
c
'ALL moved wisely when Jee Kegarty
authorities and Hill Zahn can leek
d,an New Haven. Kegarty has assisted Kddle McMchel and Len Jourdet
for several t.enens at Pennsylvanla and his absence will
be sorely felt around the West Philadelphia campns.
Fogarty knows basketball ns few men knew It. Hf
has been u star player and coach ever
Catholic High Scheel mere years age than Jeseph would
care te admit. He learned the game under the renowned
Billy Markward and later he took tips from Bill Morgen-
weck, one of the greatest strategists basketball ever has
produced. Years age Fogarty managed nnd captained
the Johnstown Central League champions which boasted
uch famous luminaries a9 Willie Keenan, Jlec New
man, Winnie Kingalde and Walter Wehlfarth. This wbb
before he p'ayed with Greysteck.
The new Yale coach is an advocate of the short pass,
sjrlth which Pennsylvania has dominated collegiate basket
ball for several years. Ills signals and
Vhlch are make-evers from these used by Mergcnweck, jee reGAivrr
were used with effect by the Red and Blue and he will Install the same system
with variations at Yale.
rALE gained and Pennsylvania lest u-h Tegart'j attached Ms
name te the A'cir Hat en rentra't. It has been rumored for sem
time that A had been considering an efer from Yole, but it !
thought that he could never leave EJdie McXtchel and Weight
man Hall.
Four Philadelphia Coaches in League
PHILADELPHIA Is really teaching basketbull te the Intercollegiate League.
Ne less than four of the six teams In the circuit have natives of this city
for tutors. Fogarty Is the latest one te join the I'hl'adelphla collegian coaches"
The ethers are Hill Zahn. at Princeton , (Iterge Zahn, who Is a brother of the
Tiger tutor, at Dartmouth, and Kddle McVirhel, at Pennsylvania. Ortner
la a graduate coach at Cernell and Jee lJeermg, a New Yerker, Is the
Columbia Instructor.
The presence of these four Phlladelphlans is bound te stimulate interest
in basketball in this city. Pennsylvania, since I.nn Jourdet took ever the
coaching, has enjoyed financial success In the winter game and crowds stenn
the doers of Wclgbtman Hall every time a big game ij played. The Penn
gymnasium Is entirely tee small te accommodate the throngs that would like
te attend the contests. Seme move should be taken new by the Red and Blue
authorities toward renting a larger hall for the playing of their home basl.et
ball games this winter.
A league meeting was held recently and it was decided te maintain th
aame circuit which operated last s'spen. There was some talk of adding mere
teams and dropping eme of the present members, but nothing was done in th.j
regard.
A TESTSTIVE srhrdule iras draxen up, but ts usual, it tcil net
be announced until later. It ts possible that tome miner changes
trill be made before il it appre ed finally.
Many Great Crews Here for Nationals
MANT of the great oarsmen of the country are here for the Natiem! rcgjttj,
which will he held en the Schuylkill tomorrow, Friday and Saturday.
Philadelphia long has been famous for its hcullers and swep.ears. Lecal
blades new have their chance te retain prestige against the best and en Leme

Hew Dees It
Russell's Career
McDermott's Plight
MANY n ballplayer comes up fast te fame In the mnjer leagues, thrill it
the plaudits of vast throngs, touches his hand en the geld of a bit
contract nnd suddenly nnd swiftly drops back whence he came. '
The trail is fchert nnd, In many cases, shorter than ordinary endurnne
would make if. Sometimes a physical shortcoming or mishap vtttl cauat a
star Ie drop from fame te failure overnight.
Fven while the crowd cheers n great feat en the diamond, the deer mnit
train his mind en the downward slope.
The wise ones prepurc, nnd list among the brainy athletes Hcb Russell,
who is making his comeback ns nn outfielder with the Pirates after he had
been sent te the miners when his pitching arm gave out.
Baseball is Itussell's chosen profession, nnd he must wring from It a
livelihood. His arm gnve out ns a hurlcr, and he hurdled the handicap by
learning te become n real ballplayer.
And new, while he Is enjoying a return te his former place In the mm
who will pay that lleb Kussell is net studying the game that be may equip
himself for n managerial berth when the "batting eye grows dim and his ajtj
legs creak?
A HINT of the impending danger In Bill Tllden's play was seen In
(lie match which Cemltl Patterson, the Australian, wen from Phil
Neer, the Westerner, who wen the Intercollegiate championship last
season. Neer Is playing smart tennis, and for Patterson te beat him
se seen after his arrival In this country speaks well for the chances of
the Antipodean in the national singles.
Ixt We Ferget
I' T IS AN old, old cry that the here of today is forgotten just as seen as b
steps out of the f-petlight.
Wc are told that in no case is this mere true than in that of the professional
athlete. When he loses the "touch" of the top-aetcher, he must fade est
of the picture that he hns monopolized se long.
True, just as when the crnftsmnn loses his running with advancing aft
' he must give way te younger bleed. That is the law of the surrlyal of tat
I fittest.
rtnf Wanna he is out of the public sight it in net necessarily true that
his memory hns been consigned te the limbo of forgotten things.
Americans ere quicker te forget, perhaps, than the mere ateHd" folk of
ether nations, but their idols are often idols still when they hare fallen Inte
i the ruck of commonplace things.
Jack McDcrmett, the greatest golfer Philadelphia ever developed, is a cast
1 In point. Jack accomplished the almost Impossible fent of winning the national
j open championship twice in succession. Fight years age he became mentally
unbalanced, nnd, since then, has been confined te n sanatorium,
i Yet. wherever golfers congregate, the topic turns, sooner or later, ta
Jack McDcrmett and his feats of skill. And new, though nearly a decade has
passed since he was in active harness, benefit tournaments are being held
for him.
WHEN a man has been great In ills line, and at the same time
a man among men, he Is net forgotten se quickly, no matter what
his trouble.
