This team has defeated almost every other fast team in the state.

OSWEGO HEARS LECTURE
ON MEXICAN REVOLUTION
Miss Flossie Haradon is valedictoria.
By Clifford Ingram
Owshego High School, March 14—At chapel yesterday, Wednesday the sixth, Rev. Bailey, minister of the first Methodist Episcopal Church, gave a lecture on the revolution in Mexico.
Having been there as a missionary for four years, he was able to point out the real political and social conditions of the country.
"An intervention by the United States," he said, "would end in victory after many years of bloody struggle, but it would be at the cost of the lives of many of the sons and daughters of America. The Mexican soldiers would able to resist those of United States as they are used to the high altitude and understand perfectly the geographical conditions of the country."

Dr. Naismith, Head of Physical Education, the Inventor, Talks
PEACH-BASKETS FIRST USED
Hence Basket-ball- Game Originate Partly by Accident and Partly by Design.
"The game of basket-ball originated partly by the endeavor to create a form of athletic exercise along the line of football and partly by accident," said Dr. Naismith at the gymnasium today.
"It was while I was at the Springfield Training School in Massachusetts in 1891," he continued, "that we discovered that the men who had
played on the football team were not taking any interest in gymnastics exercise after the season had closed. They had been used to quick action and pitting their wits against their opponents and the routine work with the dumb-bells and Indian clubs was exceedingly irksome to them. The man who was the leader of the class became discouraged and gave it up and I was invited to take his place.
Dr. Jas. Naismith
"I realized that the men wanted some sort of a game that would be not only beneficial but also interesting. In other words the men wanted something they could have some fun in. The only thing that I did was to try to find something of that sort,
Peach Baskets, Ergo Basket-ball
"I went to the门ar and asked for some sort of a box. It just happened that he procured a couple of baskets (such as peaches are shipped in) about eight inches across at the top of the bottom. We nailed these up on the gallery which happened to be just ten feet high. The name 'basket-ball' has clung to the game ever since and the official height of the goals has remained just ten feet.
Fried Denied Football
"At first we tried a form of 'dehorned' football but that was too rough. Next followed success and then lacrosse but none won, the requirements of our gymnasium. One question happened to strike me: What makes football rough? and the answer came—the tackling. What makes the tackling? The only way of stopping the man running with the ball. Why not eliminate the running and that would eliminate the tackling? But you can't play a game and stand still all the while. Then I conceived the idea of letting all the men run except the man with the ball and he would have to pass it before he could run.
"That point settled and experimented with and found satisfactory, the next that came up was the question of goals. An ordinary football goal would be too easy to make, a goal such as used in lacrosse or soccer would likely be easily torn down by sending the ball into it with great force. I thought of the plan of turning the goal up horizontally so that the ball instead of being thrown in forcibly would be described as first of placing it about two feet off of the floor and then I realized that all a goal keeper would have to do was to sit on it and it would be impossible for the opponents to score. I then thought of placing it up above the players' heads."
The game was very successful in giving the men indoor exercise and training and when vacation came in the summer the men went to their various homes all over the United States and carried the game with them."
