Strebeigh, who was looked upon as one of the most dependable members of the squad. In matching strength and playing power with Cyril T.

Strebeigh at- tempted every trick play in his cate- gory to baffle his 275-pound rival, but Cooney jumped around the court with the agility of a seasoned athlete, mak- ing the most sensational of “gets” and smashing terrifically. Strebeigh was still at his best in the second game, but in the third he weakened badly, Cooney gathering his aces quickly. Two other three-game matches featured the series, with Yale en- trants beginning with victory in the opening game, but being unable to hold their advantage. Donald Mack- ay, old Eli pitcher, bowed to Frank idde, Columbia, by 8—15, 15—12, 15—4. Mackay played an improved game, but was unable to cope with ! his T experienced play. F. M.

With this magnificent profit it was possible for Penn to wipe out completely the deficit which has been accumulating from year to year and to start the academic year of 1917-18 with a neat balance. The report is all the more remarkable when it is considered that of the entire list of 13 sports, only two returned gains, while the other 11 showed a deficit.

New York, Jan. 4.—For the fourth straight time the Dartmouth college basketball team was defeated by a loeal organization when the St. John’s college five won, 32 to 25, the Green at St. John's gymnasium last night. From the time Kelly of the victors shot the initial basket of the game until the finish Dartmouth was playing an uphill battle. During the second half the visitors from Han- over put forward a stronger attack and at one time they managed to come within three points of an even score, but toward the end the local passers asserted themselves again and the decision certain. from e was per- | TATE, ONCE A PITGHER Boxer Who Sprang Into Limelight I Recently Formerly a Member of Connic Mack's Athietics.

Fle was recommended to me by some one in Texas and I sent for him. “He came into camp and made us all look. = He was a strapping big voungster, weighed nearly 260 pcunds then and stood over 6 feet in height. | Hle was very heavily built around the houlders, too big for a prtcher. It made him sort of muscle bound. “We brought him North with us, and T think tried him out at the end {of a couple of regular games here, { but he did not seem to have the goods for a big league pitcher, so I turned | him loose.
