_—- 50350060 55005866 045586358 Speaking of Sports ¢ FIPINIIIIIITIETIIPIIIIITS We have a letter here for the | manager of the Natlonal Guards basketball team which Manager | Clarence Lanpher or his i duly ac- | credited representative may have for | the asking. | We also received the following in- ¢ the other day from George sdericks of Arch street, who took time off while recuperating from the holdup man’s shooting efficiency to argue about sport. The question Is follows: qu “\Which is considered the fastest! zume, ice hockey or roller polo? Can man rush a ball faster in pole n a man in hockey, a distance of 0 feet?" To us the answer i3 obvious: Ice hockey for the first and ice hockey for the second. | In order to ascertain the opin-| ions of men who have played both games and others who have fol- lowed the sport for years, we made | everal inquiries and without ex- ception, each one of those we asked, | agreed with us. | There are many obvious reasons| why, in answering the first query, | ice hockey is faster than polo. A, player can travel faster over smooth ice than he can on rollers on a floor. A puck will siide over the ice faster than a ball will travel on the floor. A player can pivot quicker on the ice than a polo player can on the floor. In the second query, the same rea- sons also apply, namely, a man can skate on ice faster than he can on . floor, using of course the right skates in both instances, He can et a better start for speed on fee | than he could get on a floor. He can-! dig his toe in, in ice, but can't on a floor. |income to tbe student-workers has These are all baged, of course, on the understanding that two men of relatlve ability are being compared. | There are some men who can skate on a floor faster than another could on fce but we think that any fce| skater ean travel faster than a| skater on the floor. | Fvidently, all those who are well | acquainted with hoth games, lost no | time in promptly answerlng and| there was none who would say that | roller polo was faster than fce| hockey. Win the money, George? | A Dattle of battles will be fought | tonight in the Industrial league, | when the P. & T. Corbin and Corbin | Serew teams mect in the first league zame of the night at the Y. M C A. gymnasium. Doth teams are bitter rivals and | . Besides this, | > are several known bets up on | ime with the backers of ecach | i finding eager takers in favor | the other. | On the other hand, it might be a handicap because, being tall, we know that it s difficult for a “long | hoy" to keep after a "shrimp.” However, thi~ contest looms as the hest battle so far this year in the Tndustrial league. The fl the schedule ‘will be finished next Tuesday night with another battle of great proportions when the P. & T. Corbin team mects the reorganized Stanley Rule & Level crexw. A record crowd should Be out to watch the game tonight because a scoring duel is expected between Ya- cobowiez and Vetrano of the Corbin Serew and Jasper and Luke of the P. & E. Corbin team. The guards on both outfits will have their hands full tonight with the man who is to | play Yacobowicz in for some extra work. The flash on the Corbin team has been leading his mates in scoring points and the man who holds him in check, certainly de- | serves a great deal of praise.

BOSTON FIRMS T0 COACH STUDENTS Gourse Approved Boston, Dec. 16 (#) — A system of co-operative education which has been tried successfully in the engineering school of Northwestern university since 1909 will be ex- tended to the school of business administration under a plan an- nounced here today. It was said that Northeastern would be the first four year busi- ness college in the country to be phit on the new ba Under it, students will alternate between class room and business office for five week periods.

EIl, who is dean of the engineering school, in makimg public the change. “College instruction lacks close contact with real problems in en- gineering and business which stu- dents are able to get in their co- operative work. By working with laborers as well as with superin- tendents, they are hetter fitted for responsible positions.” Two hundred and fifty business firms are cooperating with the en- gineering school in taking students instruction with pay, and the part-time 1 C for averaged $16 to $18 weekly with an annual agsregate of 0,000, Arrangements are being made to pand this service to include plac- ing of busin students with eom- mercial houses, MEN T0 BOWL WOMEN Rogers Recreation Team To Mcet Team of Girls in Gruelling Match Tonight.
