Danlelson, Feb. 26.—An unfortunate crossing of arrangement skgnals brought the Fort Wright basketball team here Saturday evening for & game they expected to play with the Danielson team, but the latter organ- ization was not on hand to play them. The soldlers went to the town hall and were very much surprised squad when they learned that the Danielson management had not expected them and that the local team was not on hand to play. There had been corres pondence between representatives of the team, followed by a telegram from the Fort Wright boys saying that they would come Saturday ang unless they received a return message instructing Zhem not to do so. They did not re- celve any such message, they claim, so_came along. The bad feature about the whole proposition as viewed by some of the soldiers was that they hit this town broke or at least with too little mon- eny to get them back to Fishers Is- land.

Led by Captain J. Morsan, the Har- vard_hockey team proved too fast for the Yale seven in the Arena at New Haven Saturday nisht, defeating the Ell pucksters by the score of 4 to 2, and thereby winning the Intercolle- glate hockey ehamplonship. The Yale team, with the exception of Holcomb York, seemed bewlldered during the entire contest, except at two or three intervals, and did not by any means demonstrate the form which was ma- terial in securing a win over the Princeton hockey players a few nights ago. The Harvard forwards fafled to get their stride until the second half of the game, when they completely out- skated the Blue players, and bombard- ed Holcomb York in amazing fashion. The Ell goal tender, howover, kicked away drive after drive, but this did not discourage the Crimscn men, who kept up their terrific assault until the bell rang for the close of the game. ‘Captain J. Morgan, Thacher _and Rice were the brilllants for the Har- vard pucksters. Their passing, espec- fally in the second half of the game, was too much for the Blue. players, and but for the spectacular work of Holcomb York, the Eli cage defender, would have rolled up an unusually large score.

Harry Clark Cornell “Defeats Army. Cornell outplayed the Army all the way through Saturday at basketball, winning by a score of 36 to 26. The upstaters started with a substitute team which looked better than any other agsregation that has visited here this year. So fast was its work and so accurate its shooting from scrim- mage that the big Red team had 12 points to its credit in the first half be- fore the cadets woke up. It was then too late, and although the Army made a gallant attempt the visitors were too far out in front, and the half closed with the score 19 to 11 in_Cornell's favor. In the second period the Army showed flashes of offensive strength now and then, but Cornell never was in danger. Fuller and Ortner were stars for Cornell. At the conclusion of the game the cadets elected John T. Cole, of Char- lotesville, Va, a member of the class of '17, as their captain for next year. Cadet Cole has played guard all sea- son_and was_substitute end on the football team last fall Kalamazoo Will Offer $21,800 to Trot- ters.

Yale Wrestlers Won. Yale wrestlers won from the Mid. shipmen at Annapolis Saturday af- ternoon by 19 points to 14, infilcting the first defeat that the Navy grap- plers have met with in two seasons. The midshipmen presented a crippled team, the latest loss being that of Captain Broadfoot, who has an un- broken record of victorles this year in the middleweight class. Wyatt, of the Navy, threw Wallace in the special weight class, but lost on decision to Kreider in the welter- welght.
