TEA! WORK
FOR BASKETBALL
"Stereotyped Style" Is Needed
In This Indoor Sport Now.
CLOSE GAMES ARE FAVORED
Fans Also Prefer Seeing Contests
Worked Fast and Mechanically
Whenever Possible Should Break
Up Close Guarding Game.
"Stereotyped basketball" is the lat
est. The close guarding game taught
by college and school coaches makes a
new mode of attack imperatiTe for the
team so guarded an attack that will
increase opportunities for scoring.
The average basketball fan delights
in seeing a game full of accurate and
regular shooting, just as the average
baseball fan prefers a 7 to 6 score to a
1 to 0 score. He also delights In seeing
the game worked fast and mechan
ieally wherever possible.
The advancement of baseball and
football along this line of unselfish
team work has moved the progressive
basketball coaches to think up a pre
meditated attack that will break up a
close guarding game of the opposition
and to increase the scoring possibilities
also.
The problem is to break up the close
guarding game and still encourage
team work. A solution has been found
in the introduction of the blocking
game. The ones to do the blocking
should be the guards, since they gen
erally are better adapted for this work
because of their heavier weight
The forwards, generally speaking, are
- lighter, but the better shots, and ac
cordingly can be utilized to better ad-
Tantage if freed from their gluelike ad
versaries by their own guards, who can
do the prying, thereby giving the for
wards free Tein to shoot.
The time to attack in baseball,
known as the psychological moment, is
the second the opposition relaxes. This
moment occurs not once in a basketball
game, but often. Every time the ball
goes out of bounds or when the teams
line up after the caging of a basket is
a moment of relaxation. In order to
get the best results "strike while the
iron is hot" Is a recognized law that
fits this case exactly.
The plan of attack is to sacrifice the
guards in the passing department of
the game when the ball goes out of
bounds or, better, to make them per
form both the duties of a passer to his
teammates and a blocker to the man
of the opposition who tries to play the
close guarding game on these occa
sions.
As the ball goes out of bounds the
team which has caused it to do so im
mediately is put on the defensive.
The old method of the offensive team,
which is still used, was to try to evade
the defensive five by dodging tactics.
The sew game is to have the guards
outguess the opposition by playing a
guarding game when he (the opposi
tion) reels they will run away.
However, it is not to be surmised
that yon play the man who tries to
play you; but, on the contrary, you
diock one of his teammates while he
is attempting to follow you that is, if
A is a guard he picks out a man who
tries to cover his forward and blocks
this man for a second so that his (A's)
forward will getree for the time re
quired to shoot a basket.
Cleverly executed, this act if per
formed by both guards of the offensive
team leaves the offensive forward free,
with the possible chance of a foul be
ing called on the defensive team be
cause the guards while blocking also
are being guarded, putting two of the
defensive team about one of the offen
sive. The plays devised to put this style
of attack into practical execution are
the kind that require a hard, heady
bunch of players. No players of a rov
ing or slipshod type can hope to attain
success with them, and,, like everything
else, steady, persistent practice is the
only means of gaining the desired end.
STRICKLETT OUT OF GAME.
Inventor of Spitball Says He Has Quit
Baseball For Good.
Elmer Strieklett, the inventor of the
spitball, who played some years ago
with the Brooklyn club and was later
with Joe Cantillon's Milwaukee Brew
ers, has deserted baseball after nearly
twenty years of service to embark in
the furniture business in Sunnyvale, a
mall town near San Jose, Cal.
Strieklett had played ball in every
Important league in the country and is
best known to baseball perhaps for his
jumping qualities. He is one of the
few players who have never suffered
materially from Jumping from organ
ized into outlaw ball, and he has jump
ed more leagues than any pitcher who
. ever faced a batter.
Cookery
points
Apple Snow.
Core and quarter "but do not pare
thiw hi rue tart apples. Stew tender
ami rub through a sieve. Beat the
whites nf three eggs stiff with a cupful
of powdered sugar and beat iuto the
apples and-continue to beat until like
snow. Pile lightly into a glass ,dish
and net in a very cold place. Make an
orange or vanilla custard with a pint
of milk, three eggs, a level tablespoon
ful of cornstarch and two tablespoon
fuls of sugar. Beat the sugar, corn
starch and eggs together until ' light
and tlieu pour over them, stirring rap
idly, the s.calded milk.- Return to the
double boiler and stir and cook until
sinohth and thick. Remove from the
fire and add a pinch of salt and flavor
ing of vanilla. When the sauce is cold
freeze it about as stiff as water ice and
serve with the ice cold apple snow.
Vegetable Soup.
A good soup is made in the fol
lowing way: One tablespoonful bar
ley, half a cupful diced onions, half
a cupful diced potatoes, half a cupful
cut cabbage, half a cupful diced carrot,
half a cupful tomatoes, half a cupful
celery cut fine, a tablespoonful salt, a
quarter teaspoonful white pepper and
a tablespoonful of finely chopped pars
ley. From three and three-quarters
pounds (cut roast) of beef take the
bottom part, which has the rib bone
in. Wipe the meat with a piece of wet
cbeeseclotb, put in saucepan, cover
with three quarts boiling water, boil
slowly one hour, then remove the meat
and add the following vegetables: Bar
ley,' onion, potatoes, cabbage, carrot,
tomatoes and celery. Cook until ten
der and serve steaming hot.
Creamed Potatoes.
Creamed potatoes may be made from
freshly boiled or cold potatoes diced.
For one pint of potatoes make a white
sauce, using a tablespoonful of flour,
two tablespoonfuls of butter, a cupful
of milk, a tablespoonful of chopped
parsley, a little cream and salt and
pepper to season. Meit the butter in a
saucepan, add the flour and cook and
stir until smooth and well cooked. A
frequent cause of failure with creamed
potatoes comes from the raw taste of
the flour. Add the milk and seasoning
and, if you have It, half a cupful of
cream. As soon as the sauce begins to
thicken add the potatoes, whole, diced
or cut In small balls with a potato
scoop. Do not stir. When heated
through serve at once.
Prune Pudding.
Take to one large cup of prunes five
apricots or prunellas. Cook tender; re
move the pits; return to the pot; add
half jl cupful of sugar and cook to a
pulp. Remove as much of the skin as
possible and when quite cool add the
beaten, whites of two eggs and beat
rapidly for ten minutes. Heap in glass
es and serve with a vanilla custard
made of the yolks of the eggs, one pint
of milk and two tablespoonfuls of sug
ar. If you wish to use the whites for
another purpose whipped cream may
be served or the custard alone Is quite
sufficient for a plain dessert.

LOSS OF RELATIVES
LEADS TO SUICIDE
Coroner Wilson returned Wednes
day from Mount Hood where -he was
called to view the body of W. E. Tyr-
1 rell, who -killed himself. Brooding
over the death of his friend, and em
ployer, the late British Consul James
Laidlaw, which renewed the ' melan
cholia caused by the death of his
wife" "and son by shipwreck, Tyrrell,-
a clerk in the Consulate, kill
ed himself. . The suicide took place
at Aschoff, near Mount Hood, where
Tyrrell went, a week ago to recuper
ate from a general nervous break
down. "
Mr. Tyrrell had been clerking in
the Consulate under James Laidlaw
for- the last 10 years. Prior to that
for more than 24 years he had been
employed by the O. W. R..& N. Co.
Mr. Tyrrell was born in Chesshire,
England, 63 years ago, coming to the
States when 27 years old.
In the wreck of the Steamer South
Portland, off the Oregon Coast sever
al years ago, Tyrrell lost his wife and
son. The report at the time was that
the captain and part of the crew. took
to the boats leaving the women and
children to perish. The .captain's li
cense was revoked and he was the
first person lost in the San Francisco
earthquake. Loss of his family - de-"
pressed Mr. Tyrrell the rest "of his
life. This depression reached its cli
max with the death of James Laidlaw
the British Consul, under whom Tyr
rell had served for many years.- With
the exception of Mrs. Williams, a
distant cousin with whom he resided,
the elderly man did not have a close
friend aside from Mr;" Laidlaw.
' Following the death of Mr. Laidlaw
Mr.. Tyrrell worried .greatly over what
would happen in'' the Consulate and he
feared that Mr.: Laidlaw's successor
would ber unable to . cope-with the
work."; Mr. Laidlaw performed prac
tically alt the duties .of the office him
self and Mr. Tyrrell was never made
familiar with its opeations. Scarcely
had the British Consul been -buried
when the : nervous breakdown came.
British Consulate Bernays, succeed
ing to the vacancy, saw the condition
of the old clerk and ordered him. to
take a vacation-and have a -complete
rest.. This was also urged upon Mr.
Tyrrell by Mt. Williams and his
physician, Dr. Glenn-Wheeler. A week
ago Mr. Tyrrell went to. a camp near
Mount Hood, .and Mrs. ' Williams. . re
ceived a 4etter'from him Saturday in
which hefsald he thought he ifelt,bet-'
ter. , '"" " " ' :
Some- time Tuesday night Mr. Tyr
rell secured a firearm and shot himself
in the headj. The report was not
heard and the tragedy was not dis
covered until morning, when Mr. Tyr
rell's physician, relative and the Con
sulate were advised. .
