Brooklyn Tennis Players Make Clean Sweep Over Seventh Regiment in Team Match Major Defeats Fred Anderson In Deuce Sets Casino Racquet Men Oppose Longwood Club for Chal? lenge Cup This Winter By Fred Hawthorne Making a clean sweep of the series of nine mutches in the two days of pla>, the lawn tennis team of the Heights Casino, of Brooklyn, defeated the team of the 7th Regiment Tennis Club yesterdav on the Casino indoor courts in Montague Street, by winning the last four matches, three singles and one doubles. A return match be? tween the two teams will be played ?orne time next month on the Casino courts. The final match of the day, between Cedric Major, of the Casino, and Fred? erick C. Anderson, of the regimental team, was the most keenly fought of the entire series, and Major only won after two deuce sets, at 8?6, 7?5. The competition in this instance was particularly spirited, for Anderson was making a great effort to prevent his team from being whitewashed, while Major was equally desirous of keeping the Casino's string of victories un? broken. Samuel Robert McAllister, captain of the 7th Regiment team, found the steadiness and fine court covering of G. A. L. Dionne, of the Casino forces, entirely too great an obstacle, and was j defeated in straight sets at ?3?0, 6?2, i although the match was quite a bit closer than the games score would in? dicate. Kelleher Downa Cntler In the other singles meeting the tall Hugh Kelleher carried the Casino col? ors to the fore by defeating Mcrritt Cutler, the regimental player, by a gcore of 6?3, 6?2. In the doubles I match William A. Campbell and Will- ] iam J. Gallon, Casino, triumphed over I McAllister and W. D. Cunningham by a score of 6?4, 6?3, the winners' serv? ice and volleying being deciding factors in the struggle. Harry McNeal, the Casino profes? sional, announced yesterday that his ; club is planning t?*"* hold an annual j intercity team match competition, to i start this winter, with a challenge cup to be competed for each year. It is expected that the team of the Longwood Cricket Club, of Boston, will be the first to meet the Casino players, on the j latter's courts. The Boston club has a particularly strong group of players from which to pick a team, and it will behoove the Casino management to put fort), the most formidable aggregation possible in the effort to squeeze out a victory. In the match between Dionne and j McAllister the former went after every- ? ?thing that came over the net, and ; almost throughout the two sets it was j a back-court struggle, with Dionne i always the more reliable in the pinches, ? The Casino man covered up the holes j in his court so well that McAllister i*?und it almost impossible to score on clean placement aces. Some of the ?fames were fought out at great length, -jf-ith the deep court rallies long drawn ?tmt and McAllister generally losing ?the crucial points by overdriving the Kaes. Anderson's Delivery Severe Major and Fred Anderson went into iae?r match with both determined to win, and hence a fine battle for the points followed. Anderson had the ad? vantage on serving, his delivery being very severe and well placed, and quite j frequently he scored aces by this shot, j At times, too, the regimental star won ? his points with beautiful back-hand ; volleys across the court, playing the j ball so close to the side wall that ! Major could not make the return. But the Casino player overcame all these handicaps by his fine driving : from the back of the court. Time after time Anderson went charging wildly for the net. only to be passed by beau? tifully placed shots down the side lines or across the fore court. Major also worked his openings well, only going in to the net position after his forcing shots had placed his opponent on the defensive. At such times the Casino star finished off the points by clever volleying or h*ird smashing. ' The Casino pair, Campbell and Gal? lon, were always superior to Cunning? ham and McAllister, forcing the issue almost every minute as they stormed the net position and smothered a ma? jority of their opponents' returns. Mc? Allister covered the back of the court faithfully, while Cunningham strove to hold the Casino pair off at the net, but the attack on the other side was too severe and the regl.oental team went down In straight sets, Chaney to Meet Beecher In Garden Ring To-night Andy Chaney, who has been clamoring for a crack at Johnny Kilbane, will meet Charley Beecher in the main event of a popular-priced show at Madison Square Garden to-night. Mr. Kilbane may be present himself-to ac? cept the challenge of the winner, or perhaps the loser. The featherweight champion was fcere engaged in literary work concerning the Leonard-Mitchell bout and is expected to linger for this muss. Tillie Herman, of San Francisco, will meet Eddie Fitzsimmons in the semi? final. Eddie has recovered from what Willie Jack on did to him the last time they n?**t, and Dumb Dan Morjran ha? broken his long silence to state that Fitzsimmons will do some real battling.

M'OEEHAN THE attempt of the National Boxing Association to standardize box? ing in the United States seems to have encountered a snag at the start. The State Boxing Commission of New York declined to come into the fold almost simultaneously with its permanent organization. This seems unfortunate, for the idea of the National Boxing Association is a good one. The basic scheme eventually will have to be adopted if boxing is to be standardized in the states. The National Boxing Association probably is far from perfect, but the men who are forcing i*- seem to be sincere and open-minded. Somebody nad to make a start toward the standardization of boxing in the states, and they took the task upon themselves. It is a thankless job at that, and c'iaws more brickbats than bouquets. The boxing situatio. i considerably mixed. Some states permit ! limited bouts without decisions, some states permit decisions and some prohibit professional bouts altogether. New York State seems to have the most liberal and reaconable law. The men who are backing the Na? tional Boxing Association helped to bring it about. They might in time achieve a uniform boxing law throughout the United States, They might bring about changes in rules that would be highly beneficial to the game. But they will not get anywhere without the backing of the boxing bodies already established. Miss Anne Morgan's Party T-vriSS ANNE MORGAN'S mixed party at Madison Square Garden *** proved to be a financial as well as a social success. Artistically it was all-surpassing. In the first outburst of enthusiasm even blas? ringside watchers declared that they never saw a fight like the lightweight cham? pionship bout staged by Miss Morgan. As a matter of fact, the bout was so dramatic that it drew one's attention from the fact that the crowd that attended it was one of th< most representative ever gathered in the city. There may never b< another quite like it unless Miss Morgan decides to continue in the game oj promoting boxing bouts. Ring followers will take it for granted tha1 anything in this line backed by Miss Morgan will be what the professiona promoters call "a good card." To the factors which level all social barriers, hitherto politics am extreme adversity, we must add another, namely, prizefighting. Mi Gashouse Grogan's ballot scores one vote, so does the ballot of Mr. Va* Somebody. That is the equality of the polls. After the San Francise earthquake, when all the cooking was done in the d?bris-strewn streets ; Mrs. Van Somebody broiled her steak at the same fire that Mrs. Gashous Grogan used and the ladies chatted in a friendly fashion. This was th equality of adversity. At Madison Square Garden Friday night, whe Leonard and Mitchell staged their primitive melodrama, the Vans and th Urogans got a common thrill. This is a newly discovered equality. Many will disagree, but it is my opinion that it is a healthy an human sort of equality which was in evidence at Miss Anne Morgan1 party at Madison Square Garden, The profits which will be turned ove by the hostess to France represent all New York. It was a practice money raising idea. Certainly the net profits were greater than Mis Morgan could have made from a bazaar, a tea or a dance. Society alon does not contribute with the spontaneity of the boys from the Gashouse. What They Think About TPHIS is by way of suggestion to Mr. Briggs?What does a champio think about when he is hit on the chin? Mr. George Bernard Sha\ who made an extensive study of the subject, consulting Mr. James , Corbett, who had some experience in being hit on the chin, decides that 1 thinks of nothing at all. He believes that following the punch to the ja comes a comatose condition of the mind that would qualify the recipiei to be Mayor of the City of New York. But as Benny Leonard sat on the canvas after Mitchell's fist crashe against his jaw he seemed to be thinking rapidly. Perhaps he saw flee ing pictures of the passing of other lightweight champions. A picture of old Joe Gans, his energy spent, his stamina sapped 1 disease, weakening before the rushes of Battling Nelson. A picture ? Nelson, the Durable Dane, with both eyes closed and his face a bloo smear, snarling through the crimson film at Ad Wolgast, only to be push? reeling into his corner. A picture of Wolgast knocked reeling and diz: by an unexpected punch, then losing his title on a foul. A picture ? Freddie Welsh being battered down before him. Then the phantoms passed and Leonard began to think clearly ai with a cool head. Judge Landis and Moses TPHE new national agreement is signed and everybody is said to optimistic over the chances of peace in organized baseball. My c? ! league, W. J. Macbeth, announces that Judge K. M. Landis is the Mof ; who is about to lead organized baseball out of the bulrushes or whatev ? it is that the stout magnates have wandered into. From a somewhat ha ! recollection of Biblical history, the original Moses had some difficult; I with the Children of Israel, and this modern Moses of the bench a ; diamond is likely to encounter some difficulties. 't sf-ems that some of the magnates tried to slip Moses Landis gilded brick right at the start. The national agreement provided tl Judge Landis might RECOMMEND action in case of crooked basebi Judge Landis very promptly insisted that it must read "may TAI action" instead. In fact, the judge said in addition that unless 1 magnates made It read as he spelled it they might remain In the bulrusl and that he would not assume the r?le of Moses to organized baseball. Whereupon the ma?gnates made the document read as the Ju< spelled it. Then the magnates solemnly agreed that they would not cr cize one another. After signing the compact they went out and told world^ just what they thought of one another. Next thing in order is the start for the training camps. The m i nates fade into tha background, where they belong and where they sho j remain. There will be no more meetings and Judge Landis will act as sees fit for the health of the professiona] game. Some of the for among the magnates will no*, approve of anything the judge may do, they would be wise to refrain from attempting to thwart him. The ju seems to have the popular confidence, and any hindrances that may be in hi* way will make the fans rather impatient. They have not altoget forgutten the shock of the revelations made by the Chicago grand jurj Would Be an Interesting Game 'pHE University of California football team wants a game with Y Harvard or Princeton. According to early reports, it does not 1 as though the Californians could be accommodated, the football schedi of these three universities having been completed for the coming sea? After beating the University of Ohio, Western Conference champion, Californians seem to think that they have a pretty good team and w'c like to show it at the Yale Bowl, Soldiers' Field or Palmer Stadium. The Harvard team took the trip to the Coast two years ago and 1 the Coast champions at Pasadena, Calif.

When a Feller Needs a Friend By BRIGGS Former Star Plans Revival of Hockey In Brooklyn Rink Some six or seven years ago, when the St. Nicholas Skating; Club, the New York Hockey Club, the Crescent Ath? letic Ciub, Irish-American Hockey Club and the various collep-e teams, and occa? sionally some of the great amateur and professional teams from Canada, used to have their battles on the ice at the old St, Nicholas Rink, hockey was tre? mendously popular in this city and great crowds used to turn out two or three night3 a week to see the boys in action. But with the closing down of the rink in West Sixty-sixth Street the spec? tacular ice sport has gone into the dis? card in New York City, the old hockey league has been disbanded and even the intercollegiate hockey games have be? come hardly more than a memory, al? though occasionally a game is played here on an ice surface that is inade? quate. Everybody who loves hockey and in familiar with some of its past history in this city remembars Tom Howard Howard, one of tho greatest players whe ever caged a puck, was a star on sev? eral New York teams in the days wher the best men in the game were compet? ing, and Tom has never lost his inter?s' in the sport that made him famous. It will como aB no surprise, therefore to learn that Howard is planning a re vival of hockey in this city and has al ready started to form an amateur team which will begin practice immediatel; on the Brooklyn Ice Palace rink. In speaking of his plans the other da; Howard 6aid: "I do not intend to joii any league with my new team at pr?s ent, for the season is already too fa advanced and, besides, I do not bcliev it necessary this year. My team wi! play independently, and I hope that on showing will be good enough to warran the placing of hockey back on the plan it once held here. "If Jimmy Britton and Repgie Younf who used to play on the old Hockey Clu team, accept my invitation to organic a new one and we can put a fairly goo team on the ice, we shall probably pla some of the colleges and teams froi Boston and Philadelphia this winte In 1922, if all goes well, I hope to see new hockey league in New York, an then we shall be prepared to play th leading teams from Canuda, whore the are even now discussing plans for holt ing an international world scries i hockey. Surely New York City cannt afford to be out of such a competition Howard, who is now the manager < A. G. Spalding & Bros.' downtown sfor at 124 Nassau Street, is anxious to hef from all good hockey players desiroi of trying for the new team, and on good players will be considered.

Sidman and Molinet, of Cornell Team, in Van of Individual Scorers Dartmouth, which is the only squat! scheduled to play two games this week ?against Yale on Thursday and against the champion Fenn five on Saturday? nt present shows the way in the In- J ins, with a clean slate of two victories. ! Penn won its only game, while Cornell is in third place, with two victories and j one defeat. Columbia has divided its two games, while Princeton and Yale I have both lost their two matches. In ! the only other clash this week Cornell ! will oppose Princeton on Friday eve- j | ning. Cornell lias scored the most points, | I 92, while Penn is last in the aggregate j t list, with 22 for its only game. The I Ithacans amassed their total ill three contests. Yale has been most scored against, Cornell and Dartmouth piling up 72 points. Of this number 42 were made by the Big Red team. This was tho only one-sided game in the first six played. The Penn tossers again loom up large, owing to the wonderful foul goal shooting of their captain, Danny Mc Nichol. This athlete showed himself to be without a peer at this style of caging the baskets by virtually defeat? ing Columbia single-handed Saturday night by means of bagging sixteen of the twenty chances alforded him. His one floor goal gave the Quakers the margin they needed to beat the Blue and White, as the final score wa3 22 to 16. Cornell, naturally enough, has the two leading point scorers in Right Guard Sidman, who leads the field with a total of 32, and Captain Molinet, left forward, who is only four points behind. Cullen, the Dartmouth left forward, has collected 27 markers, while Johnson, the colored star of Columbia, is in fourth place with 26. Molinet has netted the most floor goals, 14, while Johnson and Sidman are ted for first honors in caging the ball from the pen? alty line, each having 18.

N. Y. U. Quintet Continues Fast Pace on Court Violet Five Has Met and De? feated Several Star Teams, Including Army and Union By Ray McCarthy More evidence that this year's inter? collegiate basketball league race is to be one of the best if not the keenest ever held was furnished by the various results of the games played last week. Dartmouth, a tail-ender practically since its entrance into the league, flashes forth with a nifty quintet and gives promise of becoming a real cham? pionship contender. Columbia, Penn as usual, Cornell and Princeton also appear to be of championship calibre so that we many expect the grandest kind of a whirl to be c.iged. Yale only seems to be outclassed by the other teams. It wouldn't be at all sur? prising to see a triple tie result for first place when the season is ended. The big feature of the week's per? formances of the college fives, how? ever, was the continued winning steak of the New York University quintet. In its wild dash to championship hon? ors the Violet has yet to lose a con? test. Last week the New Yorkers took a fall out of the crack Army five, de? feating the cadets on their own floor in a fast and thrilling struggle, inci? dentally avenging the reverse of last season. The University Heights students took a trip upstate over the week-end and returned with their record un? sullied. On Friday night Rochester was beaten, and on Saturday night the locals subdued the Union quintet in a fast and exciting match, 22 to 18. That is the closest call the Violet has had this year. From their present pace it looks as though Ed Thorp's prot?g?s will go on to another pennant. Dartmouth Springs Surprise The biggest surprise of the week's results was Dartmouth's defeat of Cor? nell at, Hanover on Saturday night. The Green's success to date will be gratifying to those interested in the game if only because of the fact that it shows how well perseverance suc? ceeds. Many of the New Hampshire students were becoming discouraged over their team's showing and advo? cated abolishing the sport at Hanover. The majority, however, were strongly in favor of the retention of the game. Dartmouth at present is leading t?ve league with two victories and no de? feats. Yale and Cornell were the vic? tims, the latter in an overtime con? test. Columbia's win over Princeton at Princeton was also somewhat of a sur? prise, although tho Blue and White has been doing remarkably well this sea? son. Few, however, expected the locals to beat the Tigers on the Nassau court. Last Saturday night tho Morningside students suffered their first defeat of the season at the hands of the Penn? sylvania quintet by 22 to 16. Con? sidering that the Red and Blue has virtually a veteran team and that the game was played at Philadelphia, the result was quite satisfactory to Co? lumbia adherents. They are confident the tables will be reversed when Penn? sylvania plays here. As things now stand there is no team in the league that appears to have a decided edge on the field. Pennsyl? vania, because it has a veteran five, probably will become the favorite to win the championship, but the Phila delphians are going to have a tougher job in landing the laurel wreath than they have encountered in the last three years. Army and Navy Well Matched The Navy quintet continues to win, and as the time approaches for the Army-Navy conflict interest heightens, as these two fives appear to be well matched. At present we favor the Army to win because it has met and defeated stronger aggregations than the Navy has. Harvard in its first season since the re?stablishment if the sport at Cam? bridge is having an in-and-out season. It was moving along rather smoothly until it bumped into the Wesleyan five on Saturdav night and lost out, 33 to 31. In the first of the series between those two rivals, Lehigh and Lafayette, the Easton students were the victors by 18 to 15 in the game played at Easton. Another quintet outside the league that shapes up a3 a championship pos? sibility is Penn State. This team, made up of football players, Haines, Kil linger, Way.and others, is wading right through its opponents. You turn your dollars into suits! We turn our suits into dollars ! Everybody's happy! $35 now for hundreds o? suits that were $60 to $75. $50 now for hundreds more that were $75 to $90, Variety still pretty good.
