New Haven, March 15.~—At the an- nual banquet of the Yale hockey team last night, Charles Michael O'Hearn of Brookline, Yale's all around athlete, was elected captain and defense two years at Yale and three years at Exeter Academy. As Yale loses only Captain Joe Bulkley and Iergus Reid of its present team, the 1924 outlook is promising, Wil- liam H. Cowles Jr, 1924, of Spokane, Wash., was clected manager. Louls E. Stoddard, 1899, a member of the graduate committee; George T. Adee, Jr., 1805, of New York, and J. E. Bierworth, 1917, captain of the St Nicholas team, were among the speak- NEW BRITAIN DAILY HERALD, THURSDAY, MARCH 15, 1923, TIGER QUINTET DEFEATS CHAMPS Princeton Gaing Victory Through a Superb Rally in Second Hall New Haven, March 15-—Princeton last night defeated Yale 29 to 26, in their second basketball league game. The Tigers won the game by a su- perb rally in the second half. Loeb and Klaess were in brilllant shoot- ing form for the winners while Pitu and Suisman divided honors for Yale, The lead passed twice during the match, In the first half Princeton jumped into a 5-point lead when Loeb scored two fleld and one foul goals, Suis- man immediately shot two foul and two floor goals, bringing Yale into a 6 to 5 lead. The Eli crgwd roared as its team shot ahead, Three more KAPLAN GETS HIS Al Shubert of New Bedford Clearly Proves Better Man in Fast Bout At Hartford. Al Shubert, of New Bedford, Mass., proved his right to the sobriquet, “the Bearcat” last night at Hartford, when he clearly won the award over “Kid" Kaplan of Meriden in a 12-round go. The result of the bout was a big up- set for the “sure thing boys” who offered sizable odds on the Silver City lad. The decision was a just one, Shubert whning in practically every round. At the end of the milling. Shubert was tendered a wonderful ovation. Referee Moran who was ‘‘ragged” pretty hard for his decisions in the opening bouts of the night, showed that he can pick 'em right sometimes. goals, two of which were scored by Suisman and Pite, with a foul goal by Loeb, gave Yale a 12 to 6 lead, which was soon increased to 14 by another Pite goal. Here Princeton uncarked a delayed rally and at half time the count was 14-all. In the second half Yale spurted two points ahead on fouls by Sulsman, but field goals by Seidensticker and Loeb shot the invaders into & 21 to 17 lead. Goals by Seidensticker and Loeb ran the final Princeton cout up to 29. Last night's outcome makes no dif- ference with Yale's intercollegiate title, which was clipched by victories over Pennsylvania and Cornell last week. The summaries: PRINCETON YALE Seidensticker .

Chicago, March 15.—Joie Ray, star middle distance runner, was home to- day, richer by several thousands dol- lars worth of cups, medals, cuff links and other emblems of his prowess, and firm in the conviction that he can outrun Ritola, the Finnish-American Athletic club flier, “any time, at any distance, up to and including five miles.”” Ray's trophies represented 15 victories in the 18 races of his castern tour. He won seven of the races in world's record time. Can Break More Records “I can break every record I ever made any time I want to,” Joie said. Joie considered Chicago a bit dis- dainfully. “I told New York that they appre- ciated me more there than Chicago has done in all the years that I have run here,” he said. “When I run in New York there is a mob in the place —everyone they can jam in. In Chi- cago they don’'t know I'm alive. May Go To New York. “1 have four or five offers in New York for jobs that I am thinking about, and I may go back this spring. | 1 haven't made up my mind for cer-| tain, but I'm likely to go back for| good.” | Joie, who wears the colors of the Tllinois A. C., will make his first ap- pearance here after his eastern in- vasion in the Bankers’ meet Marchj 23, and the next night he runs against Ray Watson in a special 1500 meter race at Kansas City.

Speaking of Sports BY CLERKIN For a so-called veteran, Al Shubert is still “the goods.” The New Bed- ford trimmer handed out a neat lac- ing to “Kid" Kaplan at Hartford last night. By right it is two wins for Shubert now, In the first meeting Al won by a city block, only to find a poor excuse of a referee giving the decision on the wrong way. 1f, as some of the “‘experts” are now saying, the Firpo-Brennan bout was “fixed”, the former K. O. artist from Chicago paid a big price in punish. ment for his part in the affair. Bill is now in a New York hospital with concussion of the brain, Jimmy Cooney, whose work at Mer. den a week ago, was ‘not so good," will meet Andy Chaney of Baltimore, at Holyoke, Mass,, tomorrow night. Johnny Baylock of this city played with the Connecticut Aggies All-Stars against the Travelers at Hartford last night. The Capital city team, with Tyndell and Restella in the lineup, won, 44 to 20, “Red” scored six fleld and 11 foul goals, while “Hope' registered four field goals. The Connecticut Boxing commission has suspended Pancho Villa and Elino Flores for failure to agree to meet two men selected by George Mulligan at Waterbury on March 24. John Sheehan of this city will play with the Hartford Kaceys against the West Sides at the Hopkins street gymnasium tonight. The Travelers Girls' basketball team lefeated the Meriden Girls' club 42 to 8 at Hartford last night. Willie Hoppe proved that he is the king of the 18.2 balkline performers by the manner in which he played against Jake Schaefer in the tourney which closed last night at the Hotel f*ennsylvania, New York. Johnny Ogden, pitching ace of the Baltimore Orioles, is in the holdout class, having declined to sign a con- tract. Andre D. Scott, a New York busi~ ness man, has secured a writ of at- tachment for $3,467 against Luis Angel Firpo, the Argentinian boxer. Emil Fuchs, one of the new own ers of the Boston Braves, has ordered increases in pay for practically every member of the club. Joey Fox of England has been matched to meet Joe Lynch, world's featherweight champion, at Wilkes- barre, Pa., on March 26. Tickets for the opening game of the season at Cleveland went on sale yesterday. Young Leonard and Tracey Fergu- son, both of Wallingford, have signed articles to box at the Meriden audi- torium under the auspices of the V. . W, on March 29. Two big upsets in sporting circles 1ast night in Connecticut, viz, the vie- tory of Shubert over Kaplan, and the defeat of the Yale basketball team by the Princeton five. M. L. T. Has a Championship Chinese Basketball Team! Cambridge, Mass, March 15.—For-: mer members of the Tsing-Hau bas- ketball team, intercollegiate cham- pions of China, compose an all-Chi- nese team at the Massachusetts In- stitute of Technology. The team has been successful in almost every game this winter. Most of its members are pbarred from varsity competition by the one-year cligibility rule. BIG WINTER SPORTS Switzorland' Is the Mecca for Lovers of the Outdoors in Snow Villars, Switzerland, March 15—~ Many Americans attracted to Switzer- land by the Lausannc Near Kastern Conference are having their initiation into “wintor sports” as featured and capitalized by the clever promoters who have dotted the peaks of the Swiss Alps with high-class hotels which they keep open winter and summer alike. With the single exception of skiing, the Swiss winter sports are not unlike the cold weather pastimes of all the small boys in the northern American states from Burlington, Vermont, to Burlington, Towa. Skating is done on a “patinoir,” instead of on a creek or millpond. A ‘“patinoir” is merely a glorified rink constructed on a per- fectly flat bit of ground which can be flooded. The “sleds” of the United States are called ‘“lugge,’ and a “lugge” course is any decently steep hill covered with snow, which can also be used as a course for ski-runners. ‘Winter Vacation Grown folks travel thousands of miles to Switzerland for a winter va- cation and spend large sums for rain- bow-colored sports costumes to he displayed in expensive hotels. A large proportion of the Swiss winter vaca- tionists are English people who flee the cloudy, damp climate of the British Isles and seek sunshine on the snowy peaks of the Bernese Ober- land. Gray-haired lords and ladies, done up in gaudy woolens Which might become a comic opera chorus, skate and slide down hill and scram- ble about on skiis with all the en- thusiasm of children.

J,, March 15,—8cho- Jastic requirements have triumphed over athletics here when it was Jearned that Rudolphe E, Rudy Knep- per, captain of the Princeton golf team and one of the leading ama- teurs in the United States, would be unable to go abroad this spring to play. Knepper had been invited by the United States Golf association to accompany the American team abroad for the Walker Cup matches in Eng- land fn May. The university offi- cials feel that such a trip would take too much time away from Knepper's studies and have refused him the leave of absence. Knepper expects to be graduated in June. WILLIE KAMM HURT $100,000 Infielder With White Sox Club Hit on Knee With Batted Ball in Practice. Chicago, March 15.—One hundred thousand dollars worth of baseball material was put out of practice when a batted ball took a bad bounce and whanged Willlam Kamm, Chicago American third baseman, on the knee at Seguin, Texas, yesterday. Manager Gleason immediately sent the expensive talent to bed although close surgical examination was said to have disclosed an injury so slight that the recruit from the coast league might be able to don the spangles today. Unsettled weather interrupted prac- tice of both Chicago clubs yesterday. RECORD ENTRY LIST Eighty-seven Colleges and 329 Schools | i es and hockey games on the icerinks, Professional skaters teach novices all ‘the latest gyrations, and bands play at night on the lighted “patinoirs” or along the ‘“lugge” courses, where dignified old gentlemen coast “belly- buster,” just as small boys do in thou- sands of American communities, Sleighing excursions are organized. There are many ski-jumping contests, fancy-dress parties on the ice, horse races and luggeraces. Indoors there are the shimmy teas, and boisterous jazz bands, mostly called American bands, play during meals. Dances are frequently and all sorts of musicians and performers travel from hotel to hotel. Russian singers and dancers, many of whom are refugees in Switz- erland, are especially numerous this season. Began to Advertise It is less than 30 years since the Swiss adopted the Norwegian ski and began to advertise winter sports in competition with Norwegian and Mediterranean winter resorts. Gstaad Caux, Villars, St. Moritz, Murren and a score of lesser known winter sport centers, now entertain thousands of visitors annually from December 15 to March 5. Cog-railways have spread throughout the Swiss moun- tains and speedily carry visitors up to the snowline resorts. At points less than 3,600 feet above sca level the snow fall is not regular and fre- quent thaws interfere with the win- ter pastimes, but the pine-covered mountains above that elevation nrel well-covered with snow which falls early in December and does not dis- appear till late in March or early in April. The influx of British and American | visitors this year has been heavier than any time since 1913, It is es- timated that the Americans number about 2,500, Hotel rates are not considered high.

The battle will be warm and furious, as both teams are travel- ing along at a fast clip this season. With the Bell city club will be & number of stars who have shone on New Britain playing courts in past years. Deowey Carpenter, last year's backfleld star for the All-New Britain football eleven, will be at right for- ward for the invading crew. Dewey is a clever basketball man, and he usually proves a bulwark on the of- fensive for the West Enders. His running mate will be Doug MeDermid, who plays with several teams throughout the state. Ex-Champs in Lineup. Taylor, of Waterbury, will jump center, The man responsible for the success of the Crosby High school on the court this season, will be remem- bered as a member of Longe Saviski's team here a year ago. Taylor stands in a class by himself as a foul goal tosser, and his floor work is on par with that of Bill Dwyer, the New Haven Kaceys star. Bill Sheehey, formerly the mainstay of the Water- bury Kaceys, at the time that club was rated as the state champions, will be at right guard, with Carlson hold- ing down the other defense position. Home Five in Shape Manager Clarence Lanpher, will send his strongest lineup against the Bristolites in the opening game.

Chick Hayes will referee the game. The customary preliminary game will be staged, and at the close, dancing will be enjoyed.
