ENTERS MICHIGAN AN'N ARBOR. Sept. 9. Bennle Oosterbaan will enter Michigan this fall. 1 To the casual reader that statement may not mean a great deal, but to fnl lowers of athletics at the Maize and Blue 1 institution Jt carries quite a bit of, 1 For be it known that Oosterbaan ranks 1 as one of the greatest all round athletes ever developed in Michigan prep school circles.

Ooosterbaan's a star, and then some! He hails from Muskegon (Mich.) high, where, for the past three years, he has been making sport history. Ooostcrbaan (he epelis it that way himself) is a four sfiort man. Ho performs In baseball, football, basketball and track. He's a pitcher, end. centre and weight man.

In 1923, Muskegon reached the semifinals In the national tournament at Chicago. Ooosterbaan carried It up that far. As a reward, he was named All America prep school centre. Michigan looks hopefully to Oosterbaan to fill the shoes of Harry Kipke. LOWER HEIDELBERG Mm.

NOT, HOW MUCH, NOT HOW LONG, BUT, HOW YOU PLAY Perhaps you don't go In for poetry neither do we, but there's one verse that everyone should memorize. To the best of our memory it goes something like this: when the one Great Scorer comes To write against your name. He writes not that you won Or lost how you played the game." 'How it Tells a story doesn't it? Hundreds of sportsmen':" creeds have been written but, to our mind none of them surpass that verse in anything except length. Now game is becoming scarce and the pollution of our streams is fast making a fishing trip near home impossible. Any man who has carried a gun or whipped a stream knows it.

It's a hard old fight against established power and precedent but get in and fight. Anyway remember the last two lines ot that verse: "He writes not that you won or lost but how you played the game."

The Izaak Walton League at McAlester was noticed Friday that full grown grasshoppers, guaranteed to lure even the laziest fish to the. hook, are to be had at 25 cents a dozen. It has been proposed that the McAlester game preserve be stocked with these and that winter quarters be immediately provided. The hoppers are of the genuine Kansas Yellow Strlpo variety and are very docile in their habits. Hop Along However, Dr.

Carlock is threatened with trouble on account of them, as, It Is alleged, some of them have strayed over onto neighbors' farms. Also It has been said thatjjpme of these grasshoppers sported on the banks of Lake Savage ahmit a week ago and fish were seen to come right out on the laud and follow the hoppers about until exhausted by the hot rays Of the sun, Hartshorne business men declare that on at least ''one occasion Dr. Carlock's grasshoppers have followed him to town. One. nearly 5 1 2 inches long, rode the steering wheel of his automobile Thursday and could hardly be Induced to hop along home.

Some of the older of the tribe spit tobacco quite freely, and if McAlester nlmrods would prefer this sort a plentiful supply can be at the same price quoted for the others. would save digging fish worms.

LEAOUC BASEBALL DOUBLE HEADER TODAY FIRST QAMK AT 1.W P. M. READING vs. NEWARK LAUKSCS PARK SECOND AND fLM ST9. TILDEfi RICHARDS DAVIS CUP DEFENSE III TEJINIS SINGLES Johnson to a I Up With National Champ for Doubles With Australians NEW YORK.

Sept. 9. William T. Tllden, 2d, Philadelphia, national cham pion, and Vincent Richards, of New York, Olympic champion, have been nominated to defend the Davis cup in the four elngjes matches against the challenging Australian team at Philadelphia, Sept. 11, by the selection committee, It was snnounced today.

Tllden and William M. Johnston will compose the doubles team. Gerald L. Patterson, captain of the Australian team, has notified the United States Lawn Tennis association that he and Pat O'Hara Wood would play both singles and doubles matches. The nomination of Richards to play in the singles matches reversed a prevalent assumptloh that Johnston would be Tilden's chief aid In defense of the cup.

Richards' selection followed a brilliant Indoor and outdoor season which culminated last Saturday at Forest Hills when he defeated Johnston 6 0, 6 4 in the East West matches. Johnston has played with Tilden ac tively on the Davis cup team for the last four years during which time he won eight of nine matches In the challenge round, losing to J. O. Anderson in a five set match last year. Richards has been a substitute mem ber of the team during the last three seasons.

He lost the only match in which he engaged, playing with Tllden in 1922 against Patterson and Wood In the doubles.
