Coming from behind In tho second
period of the Yale-Princeton hockey
rame In the St. Nicholas Hlnk last
Ei rlht, the Tlscrs overcame Yale's two

no extra llvu minute periods the two

In .i ronstnnt frenzy of excitement. Hill

a content between the undent enemies
from the Jersey Jungle and the Con
necticut foothills.
Humphries In Limelight.
Princeton had a BUI Humphries and
Tate didn't, and that Is what decided the
bue. Humphries was the hero of the
fame. Ills shock of hair, like the white
plume of Henry of Navarre, ever was In
4 tin forefront of battle. Besides scoring
,thu winning goal Humphries drove home
U-n'shot that tied the ecore In the scc-
0! d period,
Hoth teams threw out a stonewall de-
. Mce. Hoth Ford and York at goal did
'acme phenomenal fending. Scully and
I Humphries at point and coverpolnt
fur Princeton broke up many of the
, 1 ale charges beforo the drive for tho net
could bo made, and whenever the Yale
attack did sweep paBt point and cover
point Ford's great fending saved the
day.
4 Landnn and Murray splintered many
Bf the Tiger advances before tho marks
man c uld fihoot for the net. and York,
like Ford, always was there with stick,
hand, limb or body to shove In front of
the shots that wero driven at the net.
Play opened fast, with Yale bombard
ing the 'Princeton cage, The Tigers ral
lied and cairied the war Into the ene
m1 V teriltory. where York faced n
fujllado of shots. Both teams held
, H snivtly, however, and for nine minutes

Or uld In a short dash from mld-rlnlc

" v.i' .i.ilnn continued to carrv the
attack, and though the Tigers In repeated

the khh kept the play principally around

( Armour scored ti goal In 1n:2ri. There

Hills Helps Tigers.
Almost half of the second period had
, been played, with the score unchanged,
' whtn Hllli, who had relieved Comey on
Princeton's left wing, scored from scrim

forwards kept smashing through the Blue

Tigers would not bo denied, and Bill
I Humphries out of scrimmage and on a
rebound shot from Hills drove the disc
Into tho Kll cage and tied the score.
i That was In H Ml. The half ended with
tho tennis still deadlocked at 2 to 2.
Through the first extra five minute pe

throughout the country govern the sport
In their own soctlojis, make their own

Hy giving the International Skating

MAXWELL ESCAPES
PINEHURST DEFEAT
Recovery From Trap at Seven
teenth Enables Young Play
er to Win Match.
PlNKHUnsT, N. C.. Feb. 28. Norman
It. Maxwell, medalist In the spring
tournament at rlnehurst. came within
less than an Inch of being beaten by
Justice M. Thompson of Philadelphia In
to-day's first match round. Thompson
JhBt U?ed.lnt0.1thel.fl.r,i division on
the playoff of a tic, but he put up a
first class match against young Max
well on the number 2 course.
Although down all the way to the
fifteenth he managed to square the
match on that hole and to make It one
up at the sixteenth. Driving for the
short but treacherous seventeenth
Thompson reached the green about ten
feet from the cup and Maxwell landed
In one of the many traps which guard
the green.
Maxwell's problem was to play out of
the depths of that trap truly enough
to halve the hole In the event of Thomp
son's missing his putt. As the Aronl
mink youngster had not been playing
up to his usual form throughout the
round, the gallery was Inclined to con
cede the match to Thompson without
further discussion.
Maxwell's ball rose from the trap,
skidded across the green with a strong
back spin, struck the pin, bounced back
nnd lay dead a few Inches from tho
I h,.l. Tli,m Tl,nminn mini Teller
tako of trying to sink his ten foot putt.
His ball missed the hole by a fraction
of an Inch and foiled Into a stymie.
The match was thus all even and was
won by Maxwell with a S on the
eighteenth.
Kdbert Hunter of the Wee Burn Club,
who was runncrup to Maxwell In the
qualifying round and who Is expected to
come through with Maxwell to the semi

feated Kugene L. Milburn of Momphls
by 400 to 219.
I while Hall did not quite come up to
j the expectations of his admirers he
showed sufficient class to warrant the
belief that he has an excellent chance
for the title. He registered hi -h runs
of fil, ES nnd 35 and averaged 4 31-41,
while Milburn averaged 5 19-40 and
made runs of 22, 21 and 10.
In the afternoon contest T. Henry
Clarkson of Boston scored over Edward
Iteln of Chicago by 400 to 31G.
Hall's average stands Inferior In the
tournament only to that of Ledyard
Hlake, who on the opening night ran
out In thirty-nine Innings. In general
excellent, too, Hall's exhibition fell short
of Blako's. As far as balkllne ability
Is concerned Hall showed more 'promise
than actual formldablllty, but as a shot
maker he assumed top rank. Particu
larly was Hall fond of and effective
with the masse. Time and again he
completed shots of that character that
were better than those of even Charles
Heddon, who was generally recognized
aa the maater ot magse amonK amateurs.
Kxhlblta Splendid deration.
Hall showed a fairly easy stroke,
splendid execution and fine Judgment of
his plays. His one weakness lay in the
dra'w shot, especially the scattered draw.
Many of his good runs were terminated
by unsuccessful attempts In that depart
ment. Hall's best exhibition In balk line
came during his run of 55 In the twenty
sixth Inning. However, even then he was
unable to keep the Ivories In position for
a line nurse for more than 3 points.
Hall's mastery of the masse wan em
phasized by a shot In the thirteenth in
ning, tn which he ran 35. The point In
question was made hy means of one of
the most remarkable masses seen even
by veterans of the national amateur
competition. The object ball was frozen
to the white, and the obstacle seemed
Insurmountable. But overcome It Hall
did, and with the completion of the shot
came Boston's first outburst of real en
thusiasm during the tournament. It was
one big spontaneous cheer.
Hall was Invariably confronted with
bad leaves, but In nowise was this due
to intentional safety play by Milburn.
The Memphis man has been playing In
streaks, and while showing somo ex
cellent all around ability now and then
had not attained his usual form. Time
and again he got off on what promised
to he a sizable run, but always he fell
down on a comparatively easy shot and
left tho Ivories scattered.
The Boston man got off to a bad
start and for ten innings had to trail the
cueist from Dixie. Hall was plainly
ncryous. Tho eleventh Inning saw the
rivals tied at 55. Then Hall began to
draw away. Ills 35 in the thirteenth
gave him an appreciable lead, and from
then on it was easy sailing. Hall's top
run of 81 In the thirty-sixth was a com
bination of everything In his repertoire
even to a line nurse for three In a row.
The score by Innings:
Nathan Hall 0 0, 0. 0. 12. 3, 0, 5. 4, 19.

Rein' Second Defeat.
Edward Rein established Chicago an
the Belgium of the tournament. The
Westerner was forced to accejit his sec
ond defeat of tho competition in the af
ternoon, Ills conqueror being T. Henry
Clarkson of Boston. Clarkson had
high runs of 57. 57 and 40 and aver
aged 6 40-60. Iteln ran 46. 19. 19
In his best efforts and avenwed D lii-60.
In the matter of length the match tied
that In which Kdward XV. Gardner
scored over Milburn last night. Gardner
also went sixty Innings. Clurkson, who
in local circles is regarded ns a first class
billiard player, showed that he Is of suf
ficiently high calibre to belong In the
competition. He Licks tournament ex
perience nnd Is plainly handicapped by
nervousness.
Neither Clarkson nor Rein displayed
any advanced conception of balkllne play.
Whatever excellence In that department
cropped up was credited largely to the
winner. However, Iteln has one dis
tinction. Though he may crace the bot
tom rung of the standing, he Is by far
the best shot maker In the tournament.
No shot seems to be too difficult of ac
complishment for the Chlcagoan. Were
that ability to count, backed by com
mensurate ability In balkllne and some
little strategy. Holn would be a mntch
for the best amateurs In the cnuntrv.

Most all of tho pitchers began to let

Cullop In particular started to sting tho
balls Into the catchers' mitts. Mogrldge,
who was the first Yankeo pitcher to go

has recovered Its full strength. It will
be recalled Mogrldgo threw out his arm
last June and It impaired his usefulness
for tho remainder of the season. Matsel

sition to tho club that ho be not com

the training trip. He wrote he felt he
could convince Donovan by the end of
the trip that ho Is worth more than the
figures written Into his contract. Spar
row has advised Tipple the club could
make no such arrangements, Inasmuch as
Ban Johnson has Instructed all club
owners that the rule against taking un
signed players on training trips must be
strictly enforced this spring. Sparrow
suggested to Tipple, however, thnt If ho
can bo of any real service to the club
and pitch the kind of ball Tipple says
he will pitch, he may receive a little
gift next fall.. Tipple has been given
until next Monday to report.
There) Is considerable difference of
opinion between the club and Paddy

win the argument.

Little Dolly Stark, the Bronx boy who

pleased with his treatment here. Tlie

Donovan ha taken an Interest In Staik.
To-day he pointed out several of his de
fects and showed Dolly how to correct
them.
"That Is why I came down here." said
the llttlo Hronxonlan. "I think I can
play ball, but I want to study tho game,
and It seems to me there Is no belter
way to pick up tho lino points than by
working out with leal big leaguers."
The youngster's chcerfulm, ambition

It will have to rain very hard here

for rainy day purposes. Five home plates

IS UPHELD IN COURT
I Deputy Attorney - General
Obermeier Files Opinion Sus
taining Contrnct.
Despite the agitation looking to the
prevention of the Dillon-Da rcy contest In
Madison Square Gnrden noxt Monday
night, based on the ground that Darcy
left Australia to escape military duty,
Chairman Wenck of tho Boxing Commis
sion yesterday declared that he had re
ceived no orders from Albany regarding
the bout and In the absence of Instruc
tions from the Governor would not In
terfere. No authentic message on the subject
has been sent by Gov. Whitman and well
Informed lioxlng patrons scouted the
idea that tho Governor would uttempt
lo have the liout called off on so flimsy
a pretext as tho military status of Darcy.
Devotees of bcxlng are strongly of
the belief that the leport emanated from
a quarter from whclli have come count
less rumors designed to discredit Ism
Ing and bring about the repeal ot tho
Frawley law.
Chairman Wenck, In order to
strilghten the McCoy-DII'ou tangle,
caused by the protest of !i lludolph,
father and manager of the middleweight
champion, yestenlay submitted to tho
Attorney-General's oflire the contracts
enteted Into by both McCoy and Dillon
for a bout with Darcy in the Garden on
March 3, nnd asked for nn opinion
If the Halting Commission accepts the
opinion of Deputy Attorney-General Leon
ard J. Obermeier, no doubt will remain as
to Dillon and Darcy being The contestants
in Madison Square Garden next Monday
night. Mr. Obermeier, In a long opin
ion, declares that the commission can
not legally substitute McCoy for Dillon,
ns was nMed by tbe.Iliooklyn tioxer, and
that Dillon must be the opponent of the
Australian.
Grant Hugh Browne softened the blow
to McCoy by announcing that ho would
give the Brooklynlto the second match
with Darcy st the Garden and m the
same terms ns set down In the original
contract.

scheduled, and Bengali was dragged luti
tho ring tt be a chopping block for the
Harlem Idol.
Iteagan was hopelessly outclassed
from the start. He outweighed Leonard
by six pounds and he needed all his
weight. Leonard sized his mini up
quickly, realized he had nothing to fear
and then proceeded to administer a
scientllle and unmerciful lacing to the
i.aiiioriiian. Iteagan was a flat footed
defensive tighter of tlie rugged tvpe and
managed to stay the limit, but tie had to
assimilate terrific punishment tn dn so.
The California! developed a ctntich
and tried to hide behind his anus, but
lonard broke through this defence bv a
right band iiip..ivin which Invarl.iblv
lauded on Bengali's face Tho result nf
this attack was that Bengali's lips eyes

taking the count, but his lecupeiative

ing, Just In time for MeGrnvv to telleve
Lew McCnrty of his added dutlin as the
players took the Held for morning prac
tice. Though he had a long ami tire

.through thn woikout at a Tast clip, bus
I tllng here and there with his accustomed
1 vim. He whipped everybody Into line.
Tho morning's wml: largely was con
'fined to batting practice, McGraw also
set the pitchers to work tleldlng bunts on
the side line, this (sort of stuff being well
1 .iiuui. m-ii to neip iiiciii gel 1 id or super
lluous flesh and at tlie same time In
crease their suiiplrness. A lengthy bat
ting practice also was held In tlie after
noon, during which McGraw took his
regular turn with the stick and showed
the youngsters how to drlvo tho ball to
tho different fields.
Following tho hatting practice Mc
Graw put llnlke on first, Hodrlgucz on
second, Kllduff nt short and Kchepner at
third and held a fast Inlleld practice for

mini in jiiiich in ncnepner, and this com
bination nlso worked well. At this Junc
ture a steady drizzling rnln bfgan to
fall, driving tlie players from tho dia
mond, nnd no mom work was possible.
The rain lasted only a short time.
Within a half hour tho sun wns shining
brightly again. Tho Indications ar
that good weather will continue.
Cnteliera Kept Rnsr.
To-day for the first time since the ar
rival of the team a catcher was put be
hind the plate during batting practice.
There are five catchers, McCarty,
Kncher, Sanberg, Krcugcr and Corcoran,
now on band and each, with the excep
tion of McCarty, who spent most of the
day drilling the pitchers, took hla turn
behind the bat.
Cm ecu an, who has played Independent
ball in the northern vart of New York
State for the past few years, hits bean
under McOraw's observation for some
time, lie has the making of a good
catcher. At present he Is somewhat
overweight and will have to do some
hard work to get down to playing condi
tion before tho end of the training sea
son. "Red Jnck" Murray la mnktnr a de
termined clTort to come back. McGraw
expects to use htm as a utility outfielder.
Jack Is In fine shape. Ho has hit tha
ball hard since coming here, and In addi
tion is fielding splendidly. Jack has not
forgotten how to make circus catches of
tho variety that saved many a gamo for
the Giants In the past and served to
Increase ins poiiularlty. Jim Thorpe yes
terday lifted a pup fly to short left on
one occasion, and Jack, running back
under it, caught the ball In his gloved
hand, fell over backward, turned a com
