New York, March 1,—~Willie Ritola, the flying Iinn, ran higher in the hall of fame last night by beating the mighty Jole Ray, of the Illinols Ath- letic club, Chicago, in a sensational race, . Coming back from his record break- ing pace of last Baturday night when in Charge, New York, March 1,—~The personnel of the amateur golf team that will represent the United States in the in- ternational match for the Walker cup to be played for over the course at St. Andrews, England, May 17 and 18, rapidly is being completed, it was learned today. Manager Willlam Killifer of the Chicago Cubs has been called to the all over the land, because he was a gan their third season by downing the senior team in a decisive manner, 12 to 2, The freshmen give the im- pression that they are going to make things hum for the next four years, rarity, But in recent years the num- her has multiplied so that a conserva tive estimate would place one-fourih of the major league players in e A committee headed by President J, V.

Bancroft who has been visiting his parents in Sloux City the last ten days, charae- terizes the bulk of the New York when they defeated the senior mid- year team 14 to 6. The third game between the junior mid-year team and the team of the mid-freshmen class was fosfeited to the latter because the Junior mid-year was not able to put a full team on the floor owing to the| absence of several of its stars because of iliness. In the junior-senior game, the for- ner showed the effects of the good ceaching it had been getting in the past week, Glerkowski, center, out- Jumped his man throughout the game, He and “Wally" Fitzsimmons were the individual stars of the champlions. Covert, Lipman, Herman apd Eiliot all played good basketball. In the other game, Gorman starred for the treshmen while Damico worked well for the senior mid-year team. The lineups; Juniors Lipman 7 by Passaic, came back yesterday in wonderful reversal form and pushed Passalc every Inch of thé way. Capt, Fritz Knothe and Dewitt Keasler were out of the Passalc lineup. Kaesler, who is convalescing from an attack of bronchitis, collapsed in school yes- terday and had to be taken home, In the first period Passaic outscored Clifton, 9 to 3, and with three min- utes to go before half time was lead- ing, 21 to 4. Then Clifton started a wonderful rally, which resulted in five fleld goals and brought the score up to within seven points of a tie. Passaic was outpointed, 12 to 7, in the third period and with four min- utes to go took the lead, 31 to 30. Clifton with visions of victory, cut loose at a terrific pace, but Passaic managed to pull together enough to win out by a scant two point margin, due largely to the wonderful goal shooting of Krakovitch and Hamas and the ability of Herman, Knothe's understudy to break up Clifton’s team work. ~ Hamas, closely guarded stories as “bunk” as far as his in- dividual case and that of the baseball players' fraternity is concerned. “Since recelving my contract croft said, “I have writted three or four letters to New York in regard to provisions which were unsatisfactory, All the answer I have had was a tele- gram directing me if T had signed the. contract to join the squad at St. Louis March 1. I suggested a conference with McGraw regarding salary differ- ences, but the telegram said McGraw was in the south and that all busi- ness must be transacted with the New York office. “Reports saying that I am asking a $12,500 salary instead of a $10,000 one are bunk. I never say what I am getting, but it is more than that. The contract sent me did not increase my last year's contract, but neither did it cut it. “The talk that the players’ frater- nity has any part or any intention of holding up ctub owners or in any way figuring in salary transactions be- Lee, has been appointed to arrange all details of the trip abroad. .

The Finn, national 10-mile and| cross-country champion, was literally pulled into his performance by Ray, to whom the result was a disappoint. ment. The Chicagoan said that he was not in his best form and some experts agreed with him. 'hough the record books will not show it, Ray alsd broke the record, finishing 8 to 6 yards behind Ritola. Both Ray and Ritola started from scratch against a handicapped field at which was left far in the rear. Up until the eighth lap Ray forced the pace, keeping a few yards ahead of Ritola. When the last stretch was reached Ritola rushed into a sprint that was too fast for the Chicago speed boy. Ritola’'s new mark is 14:15 4-5, which shattered the previous time of Hannes Kolehmianen of 14:18 1-5 and was under the outdoor time of 14:17 3-5 made by Al Shrubb in Eng- land. sheepskin bearing class.
