Six interclass and interfraternity athletic leagues will be organized by the Athletic associaton this winter, on the pattern of the football series just closed. Basketball, bowling, and hockey are the sports tobe used, the officials intending to have two leagues in each, one for fraternity teams and one for classes. Arrangements are being made with the Union to use the bowling alleys for the competition 'in. that sport. It may be pssible to ;fix practice hours for basketball with Dr.Maytat Wat- erman gymnasium,. In order to avoid the last minute rush that the football season ended with, all entries must be in to E. D. Mitchell, at the Athletic office, before the Christmas vacation. Up until that time any organization is welcome to put in its application, but none wll be received after. The present plan is to open both class and fraternity basketball as soon as possible, after school starts in January. It is more important that the fraternities put in their names soon, as the number of classes is approximately known. As was the case In football, the league will be on a straight elimination basis, one defeat dropping the team from the race. This will. hold for both class and fraternity competition. Prizes will be awarded at the close of the season to the winning team. If more than enough men are willing to enter basketball in one class or house, a second team can be put in, but th'e players on one team cannot play on the other team, even if that team has has been dropped by. de- feat. Advent 0f Snou Revives Old Sport With the coJiing of the snow, a sport as old as man himself was re- vived on the campus. At least it is almost as old as man himself. On see- ond thought it does not seem very likelythat Adam and Eve snowballed :each other in the Garden of Eden, for as we understand it, the valley of the Tigris and the Euphrates is not the most conduciver place in the world'to blizzards. However this may be, it still re- mains that the gentle art of hurling snow pellets came back into promin- ence' as University sport Saturday. One group that was much in evidence as the shades of night drew on were having a battle royal on State street with the usual results to the' inno- cent bystanders. It is to be said that1 there were no hard feelings exhibit- ed by any of the latter outraged per- sonages, chiefly because none of the missiles happened to hit, that spot which bears the same relation to the temper of an ordinary mortal as did1 the heel to AchillE's,-that is, the back of the neck. '., We hope that this good old-time sport will not be allowed to languish on the campus. Why not interclass and interfraternity slowball fights?E They would be much more spectacu-I lar than bowling matches and should< prove interesting to all onlookers, if they didn't try to look too closely. Altogether we think it an excellent suggestion and well wtrth the deep consideration of the intramural staff and other campus authorities. As a stimulus to campus athletics, and thence to Varsity sport, E. D. Mitchell of the intramural staff, has announced a plan to bring out the argest possible number from fra- ternities and classes. At the end of the year, the athletic office will present a large loving cup to the fraternity that has made the best showing in all sports for the current year. It will be an award/for all-around efficiency, and not for a win in any one line of athletic en- deavor. Points to All Entrants All organizations that enter teams in the leagues will be graded by points according to the place that they get in the race. Points will be given to a house that merely enters a team, as that shovs some interest in ath- letics. In the mass athletic meet that will be held in the spring every man that enters will be given points, so it is to the interest of the (rater- nities that they get quantity as well as quality for the track and field sports at least. Football, basketball, baseball, track, bowling, and hockey are the branches of athletics that will be used for com- petition this year. The only eligibil- ity rule that will be imposed is that no man who has won a letter or an 'AMA" can be entered in the sport in which he has won his insignia or in a sport tlit he is trying for at the time the fraternity competition is being carried on. This applies to men on the freshman squad as well as those out for the Varsity. Aim to Help Varsity This method is hoped to have good effects in regard to the men that come out for the Varsity teams, and to create a more general interest in in- tercollegiate athletics. Seventeen teams were in the football league, and several players of ability were uncov- ered by the series. It is certain that many of these men will be given con- sideration on next year's Varsity foot- ball squad. What is true for foot- ball will be true for other branches of athletics. JACKSON PICKED AS LEADER OF CHICAGO ELEVEN FOR 1920 Chicago, Dec. 6. - Colville "Red" Jackson was elected captain of the University of Chicago football team for 1920 at a meeting of the letter winners of the squad Friday. His brother, Philbrick, was captain of the Chicago team in 1916. Jackson is a tackle and has just finished his second year as a regular on the team. He first won a letter in 1917, when he was a sophomore. In this year he also won a letter in bas- ketball, and would have made one in track had he not left for service.' The letter winners of the year were: Captain Higgins, Stegeman, MacDonald, Elton, Hinkle, Hutchin- son, Graham, Jackson, Reber, Cole, CrisleF;' Hanisch, McGuire, Pheney, and Hallday.

HARVARD TO AY FAR WEST ELEVEN ON "EW YEAR'S DAY Cambridge, Mass., Dec. 6. - Hiar- vard's football squad has accepted an invitation from one of the Pacific coast universities to play at Pasadena on New Year's day. Which team Crim- son men are to play has not been, definitely decided. Bezdek Must Quit Grid to Lead Pirates Pittsburgh, Pa., Dec. 6.-Hugo Bez- dek; who piloted the Pittsburgh Na- tionals for the last two seasons, can have the job again in 1920 if he de- sires, but will have to sever his con- nections with Penn State college. While he was in the city last week Bezdek and President Barney Drey-i fuss conferred on the managership for next season. 'LOVING CUP' MAKING GOES TO SOCIETY BEST SHOW. ING FRESHMAN GIRLS HAVE STRONG FIVE Present indications predict a good 'basketball team for the freshman girls. If early practices are a stand- ard from which to judge, the fresh- man women ought to turn out several strong teams. They have 'the ad- vantage over other classes in num- bers; but the disadvantage of lack of ppevious training. Basketball practice for all classes has started in preparation for the class series to be held the latter part of February. Instead of playing only four gamnes as in previous years, the series will be lengthened to eight this year. The winning class will be 'awarded a silver loving cup, donated by. Wright, Kay and company of De- troit. The cup is on exhibition in the physical director's office in Bar- bour gymnasium. . Freshmen and sophomores will be rivals in the indoor meet to be staged the latter part of March. Two pre- -iminary meets will be held, one for each class, in which the girls will qualify for the final -meet. Upper-class (girls may enter fo Individual honor points in apparatus work. The annual demonstration will take place at the time of the Schoolmast-' ers' convention, the last of March. Floor work, folk dancing, and march- ing are the three phases of the dem- onstration. The apparatus work will be the same as that practiced all year. Three judges will decide upon the 'winning ?tlass. One hundred honor points are awarded for the meet and demonstra- tion; 40 for the class winning the meet,.and 60 for the class winning the demonstration. STEEL STRIKE QUIETEST IN HISTORY, SAS FITCH LABORERS ONLY DESIRE REMEDY OF DEFECTS'ON PRESENT SITUATION "The present steel strike has been the most orderly strike in the history of organized labor. Nowhere can be found traces of revolutionary motives so commonly found in strikes where radical men are involved," said John A. Fitch, of the New York school of social work, in a lecture on "The Steel Industry" Friday in room 101 of the Economics building. Leaders Not Bolsheviks "Those men who are leading in the steel strike are not Bolesheviks,. as many people imagine," said Mr. Fitch. "They are on the contrary men with the best interests of their fellow men at heart and are striking only with the intention of remedying certain de- fects of the present situation. "The steel industry has been less susceptible to the labor unions than have the other great industries on ac- count of its peculiar features. It is necessarily a continuous process. The mills must be kept going at all times, for if the blast furnaces were allowed to cool they would possibly burst and endanger the lives of the men work- ing near them. Previous to the pres- ent time most of 'the larger steel mills have practiced the two-shift system and the laborers have suffered needlessly from this practice. From the smaller mills come reports that with an eight hour day more effi- ciency has resulted as well as bet- ter profits. Kept Unionism Out "The corporations have been striv- ing to keep unionism out of the steel industry, and prior to the late war their efforts were fairly successful. The coming' of war gave them their long sought opportunity to remedy conditions and the strike was the re- sult of their actions. Today the strike seems almost broken, abut it is my opinion," continued Mr. Fitch, "that it is only settled temporarily and will soon break out again." "Foreigners seem to be quicker to strike than the American laborer. Per- haps this is due to the fact that they, receive lower wages, together with the -fact that they are less familiar with the history of the industry. No un-American practices on the part of the steel striker have been seen and It is the hope that they will soon come to some understanding. No de- cision will be lasting which has not the real interests of man at heart," concluded Mr. Fiske. The lecturer spoke Friday morning to the class on Labor Problems on the subject, "Some Aspects of the Labor Question."

This announcement assures the Ur- bana school good teams for five more' seasons at least, as most critics-firmly believe that Zuppke can mold a fast aggregation out of any sort of mate- rial. His ability as a coach was nev- er better demonstrated than in the season just passed, when his pro- teges walked off with the Conference honors. Starting the season with good, but not extraordinarily fine, material, Zuppke Whipped his men in- to such shape that they were able to go through the schedule with but one defeat, and that an early-season one. It is said that the Illinois coach works his men harder than any other mentor in the Conference. Long scrim- mages almost every day are the rule ,with Zuppke, with-the result that his men are hard as nails all the time. HOW OLD ARE YOU? NO MATTER?
