tne tourUnent which ha, been in P~-«-^
week Shaw was handicap to some extent
;r» la:- thigh and a sore eye. but his service
was effective as usual, and his placement s.^3
were executed with great brilliancy. Haughton
was able to handle Shaw's puzzling service
rather cleverly, because he played well up in the
court for the ball, instead of allowing it to break
in the corner. , A , A
Haughton took the first game on a splendid
run for seven aces -when the score stood 9 to 8
against him. The second game was a long on".
Shaw finally taking it with a run of five aces.
Shaw easily captured the third game, running
nine aces the first time In hand, and following
this with six more for the game on his second
service.
Haughton "braced wonderfully in the fourth
tame and won at 15 to 11. as Shaw fell off after
«stablishln£ a good lead. In the fifth and de
ciding game the pace told gTeatly on Haughton,
and Shaw -won easily.
A big crowd was in attendance, and the many
brilliant shots and clever rallies were vigor
ously applauded.
The national racquet championship was Insti
tuted in ISO 2, and Shaw has won the title four
times. J. F. Tooker, of Boston, was the first
champion. For the next five years Spaldlng de
Garmt-Rdia, of New York, was Invincible.
Quincy A. Shaw. jr.. then came to the fore for
the first time, and succeeded In keeping the title
in Boston in the years ISyS-*99. The following
year that great English racquet and tennis
player Eustice H. Miles was a visitor to this
country and carried away the championship. He
did not return to defend his honors the next
year, and Shaw, for the third time, won the
ch-mpionship.
For the next two year? New York men were
the winners. Clarence H Mackav. in 1902. and
Pa>-ne Whitney, in 1903. G. H. Brooke, the only

SUTPHEN SHOWS SPEED
WINS SKATING HONORS.
Lami/ Fails to Start in National
Championship Races.
Woodward Sutphen. of the Saratoga Skating Club,
■won the one and three mile national skating cham
pionship races at Verona Lake yesterday after
noon. These were the most Important contests on
the programme, which was conducted under the
auspices of the Kastern Amateur Skating Associa
tion.
In addition to the championship there was a
two-mile handicap, a one-mile novice and a two
mile relay race, and it was nearly dark when the
last contest was decided. J. C, Hcmmft, of Brook
lyn, acted as referee, while F. Cooper. William H.
Gross and R. A. Falllser were th« judges. Sam
See. who Is an prominent on the ice as In the
athletic world, started the races. There were
about three thousand persona present.
Although considerable disappointment was px
pressed at the failure of Edmund I^amy. who has
been making a clean sweep this year, to appear
the fields in the two championships were not lack-
Ing in class. In fact. It may be said that nearly all
the best skaters in the East were present. There
were a dozen startt-rs in the mile championship,
and the contestants 6kated around a eix-lap track.
The ice was in fine condition.
At the crack of the gun Leach swung out in front
and eet the pace for two laps, when Phil Kearney
assumed the lead. Oliver Wood, a brother of the
famous Morris Wood, end regarded by good judges
a* a coming champion, kept well up. Joe Miller,
the New York Athletic Club boy, who made such a
Kood showing against La my recently, allowed him
self to get into a pocket. In the mean time Sut
phen, with a long, easy stride, worked up to third
position, and when the last lap began he pprint^d
and, passing Wood In the backstretch, won as he
pleased hy twenty yards.
When Miller made his effort In the last lap and
attempted to pass Kearney both men were thrown
off their stride, and as a result were unplaced.
Miller made a protect after the race, but it was
not entertained by the judges. The time, 3 mins.
112-5 Eecs., was considered good. In fact, it was
faster than Lamy's time for the same distance last
week, when he defeated both Miller and Sutphen.
In the three-mile championship Kearney set the
pace for two laps, with Earle and Sutphen well
up. The veteran James Ray then took command,
but Hugh Palliser led at the half, the time being
1:49. which was fast. At that point Sutphen was
third and going easily, while Mille.-. as if fearful
of getting into further difficulty, kept in fourth
place on the outside.
At the end of the mile Leach led, the time being
3£5. William Taylor, of the Irish-American Ath
letic Club, led at two miles, and later. Wood, Sut
phen and Crabb took turns in forcing the pace.
Palliser got a bad fall and retired.
Two laps from home Sutphen swung out in front,
only to be passed again by Miller, with Kearney,
going well, close behind. The others by this time
were well strung out and the glistening steel run
ners ground out a merry tune as the contestants,
with bodies bent forward, fairly flew down the
lane lined as either side by a solid mass of cheer
ing humanity. Coming down to the finish Sutphen,
with a rare burst of speed, went right by Miller
and won handily by several yards. Just when
Kearney looked dangerous he fell, and that put
him out of the race. The time was 10:37 4.5.
Wood and Sutphen were on scratch In the two
mile handicap, but neither finished. Sutphen got
a fall at the start. A. K. Leach, of Newark won
from the 120-yard mark. In the two-mile 'relay
the Verona team won easily, thanks to a big lead
gained by 11 Sanderbeck in the first naif mile. The
Saratoga team got second.
The mile novice caused considerable -musement
as nearly all the starters fell down. G. V. Conneff'
of this city, who won the rare, was attired in long
trousers. "
Before the skaters would start in the relay race
they insisted on seeing the medals. The "Junk 11
was finally produced to their satisfaction but the
spectators nearly froze in the mean time. The
summary follows:

TWO COLLEGE TITLES ALREADY WON.
With only two months of the present year gone,
Yale has won one intercollegiate athletic ham
pionship, having captured the hockey title from
Harvard a w«.*k ago. Penns>lvuniu cannot loHe
the basketball championship, as she is now so far
ahead that her competitors cannot catch her. Other
championships to be decided within the next two
months are rymnsstica, fencing, wrestling and
swimming.
SEWm)RK DAILY TRIBUNE. SUNDAY, FEBRUAKY lJyo^
CHANCE FOR STEVENS
MAY SECURE BIG MEET.
Good Reason for Holding Intercol
legiatcs at Hoboken.
When the annual meeting of the lntercoliegiats
Association of Amateur Athletes of America is
held at the Fifth Avenue Hotel on next Saturday,
it is probable that there will be considerable argu
ment over the selection of the place for the an
nual track and field meeting. Franklin Field.
Philadelphia, and Soldiers' Field, Cambridge, have
been mentioned for the championships, but a new
bidder will come to the front on Saturday In
Stevens Institute, which has a good field at Hobo
ken. Many of the eoliege representatives will favor
the smaller college, and it is just possible that the
organization will decide to hold the meeting at
Hoboken for the first time.
A member of the Intercollegiate Association said
yesterday that there was little likelihood of tho
championships boing decided at Harvard this year.
In UM and 1907 the annual meetings were held at
Soldiers' Field, but it is the policy of the associa
tion to make these championship meetings repre
sentative and hold them in various parts of the
country. Some of the colleges feel a little better
toward Harvard and Yale because tha Intercol
legiate Association challenge was declined by Ox
ford and Cambridge on the ground that they would
probably meet Yale and Harvard this year. They
feel that the English colleges consider there Is a
higher decree of amateurism at Harvard and Yale.
So they intend to flsht against anything which
favors Harvard or Yule.
Franklin Field has the first call for the inter
collegiate championship this year, but there is
considerable opposition to Philadelphia from Har
vard, Yale, Columbia, Syracuse and som» New Enu
land colleges. Harvard, Of course, wants the meet,
and Yale would rather compete In the Stadium this
year than on Franklin Field. Then there are cer
tain representatives who think that it is about
time that the championships were decided at or
near N»*w York. The last time this city saw the
intercollcgiates was at Berkeley Oval in 1903. When
old Berkeley Oval was torn up It was impossible
to pet another track in this vicinity which had a
220-yard straightaway. There is nothing In the in
tercollegiate rules which forbids this race being run
around v curve, but from time Immemorial it has
been the custom to run it over a straightaway.
Some consider it a ridiculous custom, for under
these conditions a large part of the race cannot be
peen by the spectators and especially Is this true
at Franklin Field, where the start is from a chute
and the finish under the grandstand. New York
I.'nlverslty has one of the best tracks in the city,
but the meet has never been held there because it
lacks this 220-yard straightaway. If the Intercol
leglatr- Association decides to hold the meeting at
Hoboken the Stevens Institute management will
agree to build an addition so that the track will
meet all requirements.
There are several things in favor of Stevens In
stitute. It is near New York, where the visiting
athletes can obtain first class accommodations. It
Is centrally situated, and can be reached euslly by
all the teams figuring in the meet. The track will
not favor one team more than another, a«? Stevens
Institute is almost a negligible quantity as a point
winner. And then it is near enough to the great
city to insure a good crowd and a surplus in the
treasury of the association.
RACING AT NEW ORLEANS.
Miss Highland and Jack At kin Win

New Orleans, Feb. 22.— Miss Highland.* an added
starter, owned by Barney Schreiber, and quoted at
