The LawTence high school basketball team went down to defeat last night before the Topeka high school five to the tune of 51 to 34. Four of the Topeka players made their initial appearance last night. The game was a fast exhibition of basketball and the final result was in doubt until in the last part of the last half the local lads took a spurt and completely outclassed the visitors. The only time that the Lawrence boys had a chance to win was in the first half when they were leading by 10 points, but they were unable to hold their lead. The game was rough from the start and consequently the play was interrupted many times by the calling of fouls.

The score at the end of the first half was 25 to 2) with the local quintet at the big end. Drum and Lane, the Topeka forwards, were easily the stars for their team.

W. Aulick.) Xo. Ramsey, Who Set Mark for Strike-Outs. Whatever the respective merits of the right-hand pitcher and the left-handed, there must be no question that ln at least one instance a southpaw came out of battle with a record not approached by the rival linger. This estimable person's name was Ramsey, of the Louis-villes, but if you wished to assure him of your good will and support, you called him lovingly Toad, and he understood.

Mister Toad Ramsey was an early partisan of the strike-out method of retiring sides, and as ttiis plan, when put in practice, left little of arduous per- tormance ror nis mates. Toad was a 7. ii.T this Toad used to argue, UP a groover and the fellow a.1 bat a arid it goes to why that is an oGt Vor the basemWand OIlUt 11V UCiUS 1L an accic fnr chnrnn on all lrV, fnr mf. in manner rf tviro Tint von if that shnrtstrm hri nigvinc a sntrntiv nirrerent nositjon ann th tia i rf had Bot by him, it would have counted aa hit rff ma A nil tViot'o oa aner tne Dan leu my nanas i naa no, further control over it Mr. Toad pondered on these matters for quite a while and finally reached the conclusion that the only safe way for a pitcher to pitch, in order to pre- vent the possibility of hits (which, says Mr.

Toad, may result from loose field or ine dox score aevoiea to put-ouis, ana there was a notable diminution of as sists for the gallant infielders. Mr. Ramsey was justly proud of his fame, and paid little heed to the annoy- ance his feats caused ln rival circles. At one period of his activities, the left- hander pitched three-shut-out games, one after another, and in no one of the three did he get fewer than 10 strike-outs to a i nine-inning session. At the next town where the Colonels were to give their refined entertainment, Toad, so the story runs, was advised by a hotel lounger, to take plenty of sleep, as, on the morrow he was due to have some of the conceit taken out of him.

Whereupon Master Toad said harsh personal things to the man and added that if he (Toad) thought there was a drop of conceit ln him, he'd cut off his great left arm. lust like that. Anvwiiv. he didn't cut it nff. and th nsit day he was prominently in the game and all the men he struck out were nineteen men.

That's what Toad Ramsey did, and now you've something to back youup If you get into the southpaw end of an argument over pitching supremacy.

Lawrence, Feb. 16. The Kansas university basketball five overwhelmed the Washington university team here tonight by a score or 43 to 16. For five minutes at the start of the game neither team scored. Then Berry Hill scored a point for Washington on a free throw.

The Jayhawkers awoke and in three minutes had a lead of 11 points in the scoring. The first half ended with the Kansas goal tossers on the long end of an 13 to 11 score. In the second half the Kansas team could not be touched. Brown and Stuckey, the shifty forwards, slipped away from the Washington Guards at will. Greenlees and Hlte, the Jayhawker guards, were clever in defensive play and also scored several points for Kansas.

In this half Kansas made Za points to Wash- ington's 5. Smith, who was put in the game in the last few minutes of play scored 6 points for Kansas. Tomorrow night the teams play the last basketball game of the season on the Jayhawker court. The score: Kansas G. Ft.

Kansas City, Feb. 16. The newsboys in Kansas City who object to selling the Star for one cent, receiving for themselves one-fourth of a cent for dailies, and one-half cent for Sunday editions, and who have gone on a strike are having an exciting time and a number of them have been arrested. These boys were required to put up bonds ranging from Jll to $101. For a while Sam Miller, known as the king of newsboys, was held in jail even after a bond of $5,000 had been offered for his release.

The first disturbance took place at Eleventh street and Grand avenue, and resulted in the arrest of ten boys, carriers of the Post, who were loaded in the patrol wagon and hauled to police headquarters. This raid was under the direction of Captain Edwards assisted by a squad of mounted policemen and several patrolmen. Chief Griffin directed the raids and ordered a cash bond of $51 for each boy. It was with difficulty that the friends of the boys were able to get to the desk to deposit the bail money and secure a receipt. In one case, that of Charles Glazer, it is said that he had to give a second bond for $101 for his appearance.

Judge Lucas of the circuit court has issued a temporary Injunction against the police force from making any more arrests of newsboys while In the peaceful discharge of their business. After Judge Lucas's order had been served on the police, the police board met and directed the chief of police to make arrests for any unlawful disturbance on the streets. The trouble is the result of a recent reduction in the price of the Star for street sales. It formerly sold for two cents and the boys got one cent. Under the new price the boys' profits are cut so much they claim they can't make enough to pay them for selling the papers.

OOES MOTHER LOVE INSPIRE ACTIONS St. Louis. Feb. 16. Mother love or money love? This harsh question was put by counsel for the defense to Mrs.

Es-telle Kimfnel shortly before court adjourned today when he reviewed in cross-examination her statement that she would rather have her son tack than all the millions of the insurance company of New York which is being sued to recover $5,000 on the of A. Kimmel. Kimmel disappeared from City, In UiS. "You say you would like to have your son back." said the lawyer. "Do you mean you would Uke to have back your son ln his former manly vigor, hut not this convict with stained witn crime and his body and mir.d marred by disease?" "I want my son 1-ack as he may be.

responded the mother, eAmstly, "with all the Infirmity or deformity that may accrue with years, but I don't want a convict who does not resemble my son In a single feature." "Was it mother love or money love?" said the lawyer, sternly, "that kept you from going to this man for three "I didn't believe hira my son," she replied. Connsel then began a series of ques a "Tessie" Alderman will be leader of the Kaw recruits when they start for the spring training quarters at Shreveport, La. Manager Gear, in common with many other nlavers who are not as young as they once were, will go to Hot opriiigs, ror a short course or baths and mild practice a week or more before the Kaws will be required to report. Alderman, whose home is in Nebraska, will meet a number of the players at Kansas City, where they will assemble about March 20. and will take them to Oklahoma City, where "Cy" Young and Singleton are wintering.

At Oklahoma City, also, Howell, Smith and Sorrenson from the Facific coast will join the squad, which will play one game at Oklahoma City, stopping off there one day for that purpose. Then the players will hit the train again for Shreveport where Manager Gear and a number of the players who live in the southern states will be awaiting their arrival to start the spring training in earnest. One of the. steps contemplated by the local management is moving the first base bleachers to the west side of the park, placing some of them where the water tank and windmill now are. The vacant space along the first base line thus gained will be used for carriage and auto space and carriages and autos will not be permitted to use the road back of center field and to go to the northwest corner of the grounds as has been cus tomary.

This change will prevent auto parties Interrupting the game whenever they want to leave before the end of the game. The baseball records do an unintentional injustice to Joe Walsh, the infielder secured by the Kaws from the Madison club of the Wisconsin-Illinois league. In the records Walsh's batting record is given as .194, ln spite of the fact that he made 104 base hits. In the records Walsh Is charged with 535 times at bat, when no other player in the league was at bat more than 400 times. This would indicate that Walsh was really at bat 435 times, which would make his batting record .240.

Walsh was leadoff man for his club and drew many bases on balls, being a small man and hard to pitch to, so it is unlikely that he would have been at bat nearly a hundred times more than any other player in his league. Walsh Is a fast man and only one player in the Wisconsin-Illinois league last sea son stole more bases than the new lvaw infielder. Walsh was also fifth in his league in the number of runs scored. Walsh stole 40 bases and scored 83 runs. Mrs.

A. F. Colson was the first woman applicant for membership in the local Booster club. Isbell says he is overstocked and has a few players for sale. Although John Higgins has been pried loose from the control of the Des Moines club it can not be said that he has been put out of the league.

He is still O'Neill's official printer, but John is a much better printer than a baseball magnate. He made a fortune in the printing business and lost quite a chunk of it in baseball. Clarence "Brick" Owens, the Association umpire, who recently signed a three years' contract with the National league, climbed a thorny path to the big leagues. Owens has been mobbed more tunes than any other umpire in the business, which only goes to prove that the umpires, good or bad, are unpopular with the fans. Owens was compelled to climb the cen- terfield fence of the vs ichita ball park at th nd of tne flrst professional game plaved that city.

He decided a play aga'inst the home team when a Wichita base runner cut a base, after making a three-base hit and driving in two runs. out retired the side and gave the rrnoL-a same to xopena.

For the first time in the history of Michigan athletics, the State university may be represented on the track team this sea son by a negro sprinter. L. tsrown japs-ley, 'IS, from Portland, is the name of the youth and his ability as a runner is undisputed. Whether Michigan would be represented on the team bv Lapsley was a much agitated question last spring. The question never came to a crisis, as Lapsley was defeated ln the preliminary elimination meet.
