Charron of Baltic shot the first goal after five minutes of exciting playing. For the second goal Ball Santo took the puck from In back of his own goal and rush- ed it through the entire Taftville team for a goal. The third goal was shot in the last half by Spike Remmert of Dayville. Rood and Roy and Woods played a remarkable game in_block- ing and covering the goal. Higham, Desauetl and St. Amour also were stars at passing the puck. The team, under the coaching of Jo- seph Perry, promises to be a cracker- jack before the season is over. Challenges U. S.

The Laurel Hills have won elev en out of the fifteen games played thi season, including in the list victories over the Crystals of New London, Grex club of Willimantic and Manual Train- ing of New London.

Four Boston teams won championships after working out in Thomas Jefferson’s old home, which fact should boost the Senators in the betting from 7 to 1 to 7 to 2. Jimmy Collins, the king of the third basemen, is looking a little more alder- manle than a few years back, but just as debonair as when he was earning for himself the reputation of the great- | est far corner guardian that a catcher ever pegged at, Mike Murphy will be some bu t vear. Besides his dutles us athletic tralner at the University of Pennsyl- vania, he will train the Philadelphla Nationals and also the American team ! which will compete in the Olympic games In Sweden next June. There is a possibllity that the Bos- ton Athietic assocation wiil ‘be repre- sented by a relay team at the games of the Irish-American Athletic club in New York Jan. 26. Should a relay race be impossible, it is likely that an intercity team race, as Jast year, will be one of the events.

Columbla’s gymnastic performers ar getting down to work in preparation for the season that will open shortly. Last year the showing made in this sport was not exactly brilllant, but from the entering class it seems likely that a very good team will he turnad out. Boxing, wrestling and “antagonistic sports” were characterized by Charles H. Hammett, athletic director of Northwestern university, as the hope of the xfimon in a speech before the Y. M. C. A. in Evanston, Ill. Mr. Hammett declared that these sports, together with football, offered the best chances for development among the young men of the clty. Iugh Duffy, who is to leave his Dor- chester home for Milwaukee in a faw days, to take charge of the affairs of the American association club of that city, which he’is to manage next sea- son, will in all probability appolnt Tom Jones, former first sacker of the De- troit club, as captain. Jones led the first basemen of the A. A. last season. Jimmy Barrett captained and managed the team last year. Billiard followers were considerably surprised at the challenge of Georgs Sutton which immediately foliowed his defeat at the hands of William ¥. Hoppe for the 18.2 balkline champlon- ship. Many of them felt that Sutton after his defeat on Nov. 28 in Madison Square Garden concert hall was dis- playing a temerity that was not sup- ported by his showing of skill in that match. To 2dd interest to the B. A. A. games in February, the relay teams of the 18th and 238d regiments of New York will probably compete against each other, There is keen rivairy be- tween these teams, and although they already have met in New Yorx, nelther is setisfied, and they are eager to settle the question of superiority at the B. A. A games. Some of the greatest runners in New York are on tha teams and the race would be an exciting one. Now that Patsy Flaherty has been glven his release by the Boston Na- tional management, he has a fine op- portunity to prove that he has the ability to become an dutfieider.

WAGNER THREATENS ANSON’S BATTING RECORD Big Dutchman Bids Fair to Beat Pop's 300 Average for 15 Years. Adrian C. Anson's remarkabie rec- ord of batting in the 3.00 class for 15 consecutive seasons, still holds good, and just at present there appears to only one person in baseéball wha The individual who threatens e laurels man is none other than r. The Fiying Dutchman bas never failed to lam the leather at bet- the major league ranks, and he has rounded out his 14th season. If Wag- ner swats above the tripie-century zone this year, it wi equal Pop Anson’s string of straight. Then it is up to Hans to repeat in 1913 which would batsmen. Pittsburgn fans will look to their favorite from Carnegie to cepture this title. They know he can do it and they believe he will. Anson batted at .342 in 1876 and remained in thig class year after year, with .811, in 1890. Twice he hit above the 400 mark, These figures were .407 in1 and .421 in 1887. In 1892 resumed his .300 hitting and finis 1897 with another run of five s.§ seasons above the cherished point of honeor. During these 15 vears of ¢on- tinuous hard clouting he gained a grund average of .351. Wagner, in his i4 consecutive campaigns, has made a grand average of .347. Wagner made his debut in speedy gociety the same year that Anson reg- 1stered his farewell figures in the .300 circle, That was in 18 when the Ckicagoan rounded out his iittle series of five straight games as a .300 bats- man. The national sport had pro- gressed and the famous old swatter ind passed the zenith of his sensation- al career. It wasn't so easy for him to solve the mysterles of the modern t'virlers as it had been in by-gone sea- sons, and the best he could do that year was .302. A new star had sprung up in Wagner, who was then wearing a Louisville uniform. Hans finished his season in 1897 with .344. Not once rince entering the big show has he ne below .300. His lowest mark was made in 1898, which was his sec- | ond year in fast company, His next | glin Rgure was .229, which happened in_1902. | While Keeler secured # run of 13 aight seasons as a .300 Star and Il in succession. and Larr Tajole got 10 eplece. Ty Cobb hasn't een in the .300 class quite long enough to be reckoned on the list. but he has a string of five straight thus far. FOOTBALL CHANGES.
