A call for ten nis supplies for the use of American soldiers in France has come to the United States National Lawn Tennis Association through Dr. R. J. McCurdy. head of the T. M. C. A. work there. To meet the need thus outlined and to provide also for men in camps in this country, plans will be considered at the annual meeting of the National association February 15. An effort wfll be made to utilize the resources of the association for the soldiers' benefit, so that all such ap peals can be quickly answered. With the second week of the inter scholastlc basketball season over, the close followers of the game are picking their favorites and predicting already who will win the championship of League A and League B. All of the quintets in both leagues have made their debuts, and it is now possible to get a fairly good line on what the various high schools have this year. The race in League B promises to be the closest if some of the notices that have come drifting out from James John are true. Jefferson High is lead ing the league with two wins and no defeats, with Lincoln in second place with one win and no defeats. Jeffer son has trimmed James John and Hill. James John was considered to have a good team this year, but showed a lack of practice in their first game of the season with Jefferson, James John los ing by the close score of 9 to 7. Jefferson did not have much trouble beating Hill last week. Lincoln de feated the High School of Commerce 30 to 28, and Coach Don Orput has "a good, fast five in his Rallsplitter bas kettossers. Orput figures that his team can trim Jefferson, but he has some thing to worry him before he will meet Coach Jamison's aggregation. Lincoln is billed to meet James John this Tues day, and the game promises to be a battle royal. Their 9-to-7 defeat at the hands of Jefferson woke the J. J. play ers up. and they have been practicing faithfully ever since under the direc tion of Coach Strong. New Man In Lineup. Strong has lined a new player up for the forward position by the name of' De Cumen. who is said to be a wizard at shooting baskets from all angles. James John can spill the beans very nicely by taking Lincoln down the lin Tuesday. If Lincoln defeats James John they should have no trouble wal loping Hill, and in the meanwhile if Jefferson can heap up her winning streak and win a victory over Com merce, the student fans will get a chance to see a championship game between Lincoln and Jefferson on Feb ruary 19. The standings in League A are the same as in League B. but the situation is not quite so acute as in the latter league, as the teams are more sharply divided as to class. To be more ex plicit, the leading team seems to be so much better than any other quintet in the division, excepting perhaps one. that it does not look as though there will be much competition for first place, although there will be a grand rush for Becond and third positions. Coach Tick Malarkey s Columbia Prep School hoopers are in first place, with two victories and no losses, hav ing defeated Washington and Frank lin. The Franklin scoring machine caved in without "Pudge" Brown and Harry Thomas in the lineup and lost to Columbia Friday by tho one-sided score of 35 to 14. The Christian Brothers squad, the new members in inter scholastic circles, have been doped to give Columbia a run for the title on their performances in pre-season games against the- best Independent teams in the city. In its first game against Benson last week the Christian Brothers team won, but did not make any too wonderful a showing. C. B. B. C. in Line. It can probably be explained by the absence of one of the best players on the team Brost being out of the game because of s bad leg and an at tack of stage fright or a reversal of form, or whatever you want to call it The C. B. B. C. has a good team- there is no getting awey from that fact and if they play up to form against Franklin and Washington and martage to win both games they will have the chance to fight it out with Columbia for the championship of League A when they clash on Feb ruary 20. Franklin has to be consid ered, and Washington will also give them plenty of action. One will be able to get a better idea as to what the final results will be in League A after this week's games. Washington will meet the Christian Brothers quintet on Wednesday, while Columbia will tackle Bensort on Friday.
