WAITE AMERICAN ATHLETES | TIE WITH BRITONS aptain Rudd Insists on Result Being Called Even New York, July 29.—The com- ‘peting Oxford-Cambridge and Prince- | ‘ton:Cornell track and field teams, meeting at Travers Island yvesterday | afternoon in international atletics for the first time, tied each other in first places won. The Englishmen five contests, the Americans five. fine meet and one which could bave been closer, a fine *meet with courageout running, with perform- ances generally better than the times or distances of them and some good time considering the strong wind sWhich jarred the runners when they ‘Were moving to the southward. ¢ Even the second places were close, "and in the matter of second places an Amportant and decidedly interesting ‘point arose. The Englishmen scored Afive and a half points in second places ‘to four and a half for the Americans. The question arose whether or not mecond places decided the victor, asmuch as first place points were aven. Captain Rudd of the Oxford team explained that the meet was a tie, that second places did not count and that that was the understanding as well as the way of it in the Oxford- Princeton meet in England a year ago. John T. McGovern of Cornell, executive secretary of the joint com- mittee, however, presumably with authority to do so, ruled that the English team won the meet, this by ‘virtue of winning the most seconds. Captain Rudd protested, “No, no,” he exclaimed, then Mr. McGovern, *Let it go as a tie.” Donald Herring, Princeton and Ox- ford, reckoned the result a tie, as did _others connected with the meet. But Mr. McGovern closed the dis- won A not €ulsion by declaring to Mr. Rudd and other who were debating the “Oxtord and Cambridge win }_meet.” Which, so far as could fearned to the contrary, was offi- , at the time at least, and if the nglishmen hadn't got the victory t way they deserved to; and, more- er, they had the no inconsiderable Im of outpointing their opponents ‘after their one-sided defeat by Har-- vard-Yale the week before. Conference of Officials. - _At a conference of officials —and team captains following the meet it ‘was decided that England was the winner in accordance with the rules that applied last week at the Britons meet with the Yédle combination. Later. however, another confer- ‘ence wa held and it was brought out that when arrangements for the meet ‘were being made by cable, it was agread that the rules governing the Oxtord-€Cambridge and Harvard-Yale meet at the Queens club, England, last vear, should govern yesterday's events. Under those rules second places did not count in final score. The Summaries. 100 Yard Dash—Won by H. M. Abrahams, Cambridge; F. K. Lovejoy, Cornell, second; C. McKim, Prince- ton, third; B. G. D.

The next batter suffered the same fate. Then the ball was dropped into a safe place between 'shortstop and second and the team had a run- ner on base. But that was where said runner died. A pop fly to cen- ter field retired the side and a quick throw to first clinched the argument and dispelled all doubts by making what literally was a double play. No, it was not a professional game, neither ‘was it the Boys' club or the post office team, it was a game be- tween two teams of girls at the old Elihu Burritt playgrounds. Fancy twirling, heavy hitting, fast running and clever base stealing are being demonstrated here every day by girls’ teams which are attracting consider- able attention. Men and boys, many who consider themselves more or less conversant with the | intricate mysteries of the national game, crowd about the fence whenever ‘the girls play and applaud and cheer as plays are made which would be a credit to brothers and sweethearts of the feminine ball players. “It is the best training in the world to build them up mentally as well as physically,” said “Jack” O'Rourke, playgroun. superintendent. Mr. Rourke pointed out to a Herald rep-| resentative a number of girls, whose playing is really marvelous for girls, who he says cannot be kept away from the game. ‘“And they are not all of the working classes, either,” said Mr. Rourke. Girls who belong to the moderately well fixed or so- called aristocracy put on calico dresses, go down to the playground and pitch, catch, hit, run and slide with all the pep shown by any aver- age school boy.

Seemingly dejected by their inability to hit Charley Glazner, they trailed. To all outward appearances the vauni- ed power of the New Yorks was ‘o stay checked for the day. But the Giants-were onl ybiding their time. Casting a frenzied.gathering of 17,000 f.om their heights of triumphant Joilification to the slough of despair, the Giants poanced on Glazner and a disorganized support in the ninth for four runs and victory. 3 The tally was 6 to 4.
