HI BASKETBALL

SHOWING POOR; LOSEH T0 29 Mullin's Men Show Need of Much Practice in Game Against Y. M. C. A. Team.

Tnat the High school basketball team need3 considerable boosting and a lot of hard work betweea now and November 2, when the first scheduled came of the season Is played was

shown by the miserable work per- j formed by the High school men against a Y. M. C. A. team la the "Y" gymnasium Friday night.' The High schoolers were defeated 71 to The "Y" team, with one exception, was made up of men that played on one of the High school teams last year and their playing made the High school squad look weak in comparison. W. Porter, Long and Parker played circles around the High school squad and were able to score almost at will.

Lack of co-operation, and inability to carry out floor passes were the HI squad's biggest shortcomings, and time after time, the "Y" men broke up plays before they had- much more than started. The basket shooting of the High team was up to snuff and few " of the shots that were given either of the offensive men failed to find the netting. Next week Coach Mullins is planning to get down to hard work with the squad and round it into condition

for the opener. The score of Fridayi

night's game follows: Y. M. C. A.

News note from "Chi" The enemy has advanced to our first line trenches

and are now placing their Kauff How. itzers and Zimmerman machine guns for action on the west front. Our re cent successes along this front were overshadowed by the overwhelming defeat of our forces on the east front but General Rowland, with Field Marshal Comlskey are strengthening

the outer defenses of our line and it is believed the enemy guns will be powerless. Recent scouting tours Into the third

tile as did all later attempts to make headway except by smashing blows. Our boys are scheduled to "go over" about 2 o'clock Saturday afternoon in an effort to re-take trenches that were lost in recent counter-attacks. All of which means that the Sox and the Giants are at it for a brief Bpell. If the series ends in six games, and both teams are of the opinion that it will, each team will have traveled 3,840 milee from Chicago to New York and return and this does not count Kauff s trips around the circuit No game Sunday afternoon The
