McCoy, who made his first appearance of the year yester- day, is a dash man with a ,world of speed and in several fast matches showed very well against Johnson, Froemke, and Sparks. With the addition of Parks and McCoy in the past week prospects for a strong dash squad are much brighter. The distance stars, Sedgwick and Donnelly went a mile in the fastest time they have made this season, while Forbes and Lombard finished the Cross and Roberts were pole-vault- ing in fine form also. Germany Lacks Enough Shoes For All Zurich, Dec. 11.-Significant in part because a German newspaper, the Con- stance Gazette, published the informa- tion, comes word that Germany today possesses less than one-seventh enough leather and completed shoes to supply its population for the com- ing winter.-, The figures, says the newspaper, are the more alarming because they are based on a population of 50,000,000 which averages but one pair of shoes, and three sets of soles, per year. Since certain classes of workers, adds the Gazette, must have more shoes than this, the gravity of the situation is increased, and is not apt to be al- layed by the production, as planned at present,.of cloth shoes with wooden soles.

Coach Mitchell first pitted his men against a team of ineligibles which they handily defeated 26 to 1. How- ever, this is no criterion of the ability of the ineligibles, for these boys had, never played together before. The varsity quintet was then sent against the freshmen. A lively scrimmage followed in which both teams played a fast brand of basketball. McClin- tock at left forward was the big scor- er for the varsity, having seven bas- kets to his credit. Emery and Later counted three apiece and Hanish tos- sed one. Boyd played a strong stand- ing guard, keeping the fresh forwards well away from the basket. The pass- ing of the boys was especially good and if their.shooting can be brought to the same high level they will form a hard combination to beat. Lots of credit must be given the freshmen for the manner in Which they performed. They all played well, Karpus being perhaps the individual star. He and Isbell handled the for- wards, Williams played center, while Wickham and' Wilson were the guards. All of these boys showed a high brand of basketball, and with such a foun- dation this year's fresh team ought to be a wonder.
