y SPORTS. WINS THIS WINTER ARE ROUSING TIGER Basket Ball, Hockey Teams Chase “Smoothie” Complex at Old Nassau. BY LAWRENCE PERRY. EW YORK, March 16— Princeton’s almost com- plete change in athletic at- mosphere, since the hockey team had its successful season and | the basket ball outfit finished its schedule tied with Columbia for first place in the Eastern Inter- collegiate Basket Ball League, in- dicates that the alleged “smoothie” complex at Old Nassau was in reality a defeatist complex. Consistent defeat may well do more than fill a record with blots. It exerts an influence very wide in its scope, and, indeed, may very well be reflected in the class room. Certainly there is precedent for the statement that student behavior causes the disciplinary authorities much more trouble in periods of athletic ad- versity than in times when teams in the various sports are turning in their due and proper share of victories. It is certainly a fact that the visitor to Princeton these days finds a more wholesome spirit of enthusiasm for ath- letics by participants and a more fervid support of them by the student body than at any time since 1928, Those who live in the university town affirm that it amounts to a new impulse and that Princeton is becoming once more what she used to be in this respect. Support of the basket ball team has given those who philosophize about sport a lot of cause for thought. In many centers the assailing of officials with angry ocutcries and derisive boos has become an increasing problem. It came very importantly before the mind of the public upon the occasion of the recent Dartmouth - Columbia game at Hanover, where the conduct of the home rooters caused President Hopkins to send a letter of apology to the Morn- ingside institution. Princeton, with a lack-luster follow- ing of poor basket ball teams in recent years, has escaped this condition. But with the Tiger five fighting up at the top, Princeton partisans have not been too amiable when adverse decisions have been made. Conduct of this sort, whether at Princeton or elsewhere, is, of course, primarily due to ardent enthusiasm, but more deeply it may be assigned to the frequency of the calling of fouls, the incessant stopping of rallies by the blowing of a whistle for no reason that the spectators, ignorant of the finer points of the rules, can see. An added drawback is the proximity of spectators to the field of play. To put the best possible complexion on it, so far as Princeton is concerned, it may be said that it connotes a rising tide of revived interest in competitive games, and hence there will be few Princeton alumni, at this time at least, who will view the ardor of the stands with any great alarm. BALL TEAM PLANNING T0 ENTER TWO LOOPS Federal Employe Unionists Would Uphold Prestige of Federal ‘Workers’ Organization. Federal Employe Unionists, a base ball team that will uphold the prestige | of the District of Columbia Federation of Federal Employes’ Unions, plans to enter two leagues and also play inde- | pendent ball the coming season.

And quick action they are getting at the hands of President E. S. Brashears and his associates on the board of governors. Ground was broken yesterday for the new $50,000 club house which will go up at Beaver Dam and today and for several days to come steam shovels will be in there at work excavating for the foundations of the new house, which is expected to be ready for occupancy by May 30. The old house was fully covered by insurance and the fire represents only a small net loss to the club, so Beaver Dam has not had to stand a heavy financial outlay as the result of the fire. But the club will not be in a position this year to stage its much-wanted in- vitation golf tournament, aaording to M. Maler, chairman of the Golf Com- mittee. Beaver Dam wants to stage an invitation event and might have asked for a date this year had not il™ de- struction of the club house by fire put an end to plans for such an event. In the future, possible next year, it is pos- sible that Beaver Dam will hold an in- vitation event. Meanwhile Maler and his committee are going forward with plans for chang- ing the course to bring the ninth and eighteenth greens near the new club house; located several hundred yards north and east of the old site, where the old ninth and eighteenth greens now are located. To bring the end of both nines near the new house it will be neocessary to construct three new greens, including & new ninth and eighteenth, and these improvements will get under way immediately. Under the recon- struction plans the present seventeenth hole will be entirely abandoned. ‘The Women's Golf Association of the District of Columbia will hold its an- nual meeting next Monday at the Na- tional Women’s Club, near Bethesda, Md., to consider changes in the consti- tution and to formally ratify the team match and tournament schedules which were announced a few days ago. The opening match of the series will be played on April 4, if the snow ever Jeaves the ground. OST of the traveling pros will gather at Coral Gables tomorrow morning to start play in the open tourney, which offers the biggest slice of money in the United States. The event is the Miami-Biltmore open tourney, & 36-hole affair with a bulky purse total- ing $10,000 to be drawn down by the gents who cut into the prize money. Agua Caliente has a bigger purse, but the Miami tourney is the biggast money event of the year in this country. Next week the pros wiii wind-up their Winter season with the annual North and South Cox will defend the title he won last year. Pinehurst does not shape up so badly as a tournament for heavy dough, for the Pinehurst management spreads $7,200 around among the prize winners in its event. The Pinehurst {ourney is strictly an invitation affair, limited be- | cause so many pros flocked to the Caro- lina resort to partake of the free bed | and board offered for the three days of | the tourney that they could not be | taken care of. Several of the local golf professionals have been invited to go| to Pinehurst. and it is piobable that | Fred McLeod of Columbia.
