BY JOHN B. FOSTER. EW YORK, January 27.—The trip of the ball players who went to Japan during the winter was successful. The venture did not lose any money, according to advices received by cable today, and the players gave a full measure of entertainment in all the cities in which they played. They are expected to arrive at San Francisco about February 5. Whether they will play any ball in California before they scatter to their homes is a question. Games can be arranged. It is probable, how- ever, that most of the eastern players will hurry home to visit the folks for a few days before they receive their contracts. The team lost only one game on the trip and the pitchers were han- dled in such a manner none of them is likely to complain of a strained arm or overwork. Lavan, the St. Louis shortstop, who was not in the best of health when he started, reported to be in fine condition now. Everywhere the players were en- tertained generously, if not on_the scale which occasionally obtalned on other world trips. The fielding was not so much a novelty to the Jap- anese, as many of the Japanese play- ers have progressed well In this de- partment, but the batting attracted vociferous admiration 6f the spec- tators, who received the long-dis- tance swats with wild cheers. Some Food for Thought. Shocker finished the 1922 season with 348 innings, five less than Faber of Chicago, who pitched 353. ~Both Faber and Shocker are spit ball pitchers and it Is safe to estimate each threw a minimum of 8,000 balls 10 batters in 1922.

Golt can be infested with all sorts of happy instances if some of the rules, which should always, for the most delightful golf, be observed strictly, are violated. Scores of players fracture all kinds of rules while they are fussing cept each of the as well a hay does Purdue Uni- of lowa and the with their putts.

Just as he is about to strike the ball a dead caterpil lar falls from a tree directiy on the line of the putt and abomt six inches in front of the ball.

The Westerners possessed speed and passing ability and worked concertedly, yet they were trounced, 23 to 19. In _some respects, the Eastern five was inferior to its opponent, but in one it was far ahead. Never before in the history. of the sport in the high schools was there a quint with more spirit than Eastern’s, and it was that quality more than anything else that enabled the Capitol Hill boys to regut:r their third consecutive victory in the series and strengthen their The Eastern-Western battle was such a thriller that it completely eclipsed the preceding game between Central and Tech. at was a tame affair, made so partly by the slippery condition of the Arcade floor that reduced the speed of the contenders, but more by sheer inabil- ity on the part of the two teams to roduce anything like good basket all. Central wholly outclassed Tech and won, 31 to 10, but there never was & time when the Centralites played like the champions they were last winter. After Central and Tech had con- cluded their listless match in which the ‘former ran away from the Manual Trainers after the first quar- ter, .the throng of student rooters were treated to an exhibition as stir- ring as any event held between high school teams here. Eastern's ag- gressive quint went at Western ham- mer and tongs in the first period and ran up a four-point lead, but West- ern rallied nobly in the second period and reduced Easte: advantage to 9 to 8 during the session. From then on it was a red-hot battle, although Western never man- aged to catch Eastern. The West- erners changed their offensive tac- tics in the second half, sending Frisby to the basket, while his mates were deploying in midcourtand “feed- ing” him. Frequently the ball was sent to the Red and White player under the goal, but his throws were #0 hurried by the active Eastern guards that most of them missed the mark. While Western was struggling perately to count, every member of Tips on Playing Basket Ball; Correct Rule BY ED B . When you are on your way in to receive a pass or about to intercept one, " you should be figuring to whom you are going to pass or what you are going to do with the bhall. Otherwise you will be left flat-footed many times. Do not take long shots under ordi- nary conditions, for in most cases it means loss of the ball. If a player is inside the foul line and set, he should shoot and follow up his shot, and all other players close to 1he basket should iofiow up the shot with him. 1f an angular shot is tried at least one player should fol- low in from the opposite side, leaving it up to the one makinf the shot to ccver the side he shot from. 1f on a follow up you get posses- sion of the ball and are blocked from shooting again at the bas- ket, turn fast and pass out to another of your players so he can start the play over again. On fol- low ups off the backboard or bas- ket, you must go up in the air after the ball. Don't stand and wait for the ball to come to you. Q. Must players jumping in center or elsewhero keep one hand behind their backs until one or the other has touched the ball? A. Yes, otherwise player not doing %o commits a violation. Q. I a closely guarded player is helding the bail on the floor and making no attempt to play it, should it be called a foul? A. No. If opponent is so closely xuarding him that he cannot make & play, it should be called a held ball. Q. May a player hit the ball with his fist while jumping at center? . No. It is a foul in both amateur professional games, O Interpretations ‘THORP-. Q. When a player shoots for the basket and misses, can he again catch the ball before another player has touched it and try a second time for the basket? A. Yes, this is legal in both games. Q. Does the ball have to be kept in motion? 1Is there any definite time as to how long an unguarded player may hold the ball? A. No, the ball does mot have to be kept in motion.
