Murray Elected to tain of Trinity Baseball Three Years on the Team—Eddie a Former N. F. A. Shortstop. EDDIE MURKAY The letter men of the candidates for the Trinity college baseball team today elected Bdward F. Murray of Norwich, a member of the class of 1918, captain of the team to succeed Edward G. McKay of Norwich, who was elected to the place last spring, who was elected to the place last spring, but who did not return to col- lege, making this unusual mid-winter choice of captain necessary. Murray has played three vears on the team at shertstop and is a member of D. K. E. and of the sophomore dining club. He is a brother of Jimmy Murray who captained the team several years ago and plays short stop, the same ition held down by his brother. With Coach Jimmy Burns at the helm it will be necessary to put to- gether a practically new baseball nine to represent the Hill college on the diamond in the spring. Kenney 19, and Leeke 18, who played in a por- tion of the games last spring, are the only two men besides Murray who have had any varsity experience. The hard-hitting outfield of the team of 1916 will be sadly missed, but there is £00d material in college for a snappy infield. Prescott scems to be the only possible pitcher at present with the possibility of Brickley, who twirled in a couple games on the southern trip last year. Bddie graduated from the Norwich Succeed Eddie McKay as Cap- Team—Murray Has Played Free Academy with the class of 1914. He played baseball four years at N. ‘F. A. and led the interscholastic league in hitting his last Year in high school. Murray was one of the fast- est shortstops ever turned out at the Academy and was also prominent in amateur circles throughout eastern Connecticut. ONE TIME GIANT BOXING PROMOTER “Mike” Donlin Trying to Match Welsh and Kilbane for Forty Rounds “Mike Donlin, one-time leading slugger of the New York Giants is fill- |ing & new role. He is a boxing pro- moter and 'he is trying to match “Freddie” Welsh and “Johnny" Kil- bane for a forty round bout at Ha- vana, to be held some time in Febru- ary. However, there is little chance of the match being made, for Welsh demands $50,000, win, losb or draw. Donlin is associated with Hugh Grant Browne and Charles Henshell ,who, ac- cording to Donlin, are building a big athletic arena in Havana, ten minutes' ride from the heart of the city. He says it is a three million dollar prop- osition, and will be the scene of horse racing, automobile racing, boxing and baseball. Ponlin further declared that the arena is rapidly near completion, and taht the promoters have = been promised that it will be completed in every detail early in January. “We expect to start playing base- ball there about January 10, said Mike” “We will have two Cuban teams and one American team. We discussed this phase of the sporting programme with “Mike” Cantillon and he thinks that his brather “Joe” will favor sending the Minneapolis team to Cuba to train for the American Association season. The Menneapolis club could engage games with the two Cuban teams on Saturdays, Sunday and Mon- day the three days that will be.de- voted to baseball, until about April 1, arriving in time to open the American Association season about April 15. Welsh Wants Too Much Donlin had a long conference with Harry Pollok, Welsh’s manager. Poliok demanded $50,000 for Welsh's end. Donlin declared this was prohibitive. “However, I intend to have another talk with Pollok,”” said Donlin, “and we may be able to agree upon terms for a forty round championship bout with Kilbane. In the meantime I already have opened negotiations for a forty round bout between Frank Moran and “Fred” Fuiton; in fact I have Moran’s verbal agreement to go to Havana to fight Fulton. “I have communicated with Fulton and expect an answer from him to- morrow or Saturday “My associates intend to make a biz thing of this arena.” They have studied conditions in Cuba and are convinced that there is a demand for just such a place.” Hugh Grant Browné is well known In sporting circles as the owner of a big stable of thoroughbreds and the owner of Brownleigh Park stud, at Goshen, N. Y. He is president of the Devonshire Racing Association, in On- tario. Henshell also has been connect- ed with racing for some time. Browne has a colt entered in the English Derby, 1917 “I believe that Mr. Browne intends to have some racing at his track when the present Havana meeting winds up,” continued Donlin. “Mr. Browne left here on Tuesday to go to Havana, and I will hear from him just as soon as he arrives. He told me that he would jkeep me posted on just how things were progressing. FINANCIAL AN ADVANCE IN PRICE OF STOCKS. As Result of British Premier’s Decla- ration of Attitude Toward Peace.

Practice was held every day last week and there has been a steady improvement in team-play and passing. The first game will be played in New York on Friday night of this week, against the St. Nicholas team. The freshmen have an unusual amount of excellent material this year ,and it is expected that they will have an exceptionally good team. A practice game between the Uni- versity team and either the freshmen or the second team will probably be played Wednesday evening at the Arena. The following will now compose the squad: Murray, ' York, Bierwirth, Jacobs, Armour, Buchanan, Gould, Blossom, Van Nostrand, Mcllwaine, Stafford, Landon, Griggs, C. Stanley, G.

New York, Dec. 19.—Carmen and Wiley were 'leading at 10 o'clock in the twenty-fourth annual six-day bi- cycle race, which began at 12.05 a. m. vesterday. Thirteen teams were still in the race at the end of the 46th hour and had covered 915 miles and 4 laps. The record for that time was 70 miles and 5 laps, made in 1914 by Lawson and Drobach. At midnight, the end of the 4Sth hour, the eleven leading teams had covered 952 miles and 8 laps, with De BEaetes and Walthour leading. The other two teams were one lap behind.

Eddie Collins, the White Sox star in 1556 games at second base, accepted 761 chances and is the vir tual leader in his position. Vitt, the Detroit third sacker wa best fielder in his position, Everett Scott, the Red Sox phenom, led the shortstops of the circuit, Ray Schhilk landed the title of being the catcher, Felsch of Chicago perform- ed the’ steadiest in the outfield ,and the best fielding pitcher was Coveles. kie of Detroit. There were other players who sported better averages than these lads mentioned bu they are not entitled to the honors be- cause they did not play In a sufficient uimber of games to be considered. Most Games. Walter Pipp of the New York Yan- kees played in the greatest number of zames around first base, 148. Gandil was the only getaway sack guardian the who made more than 100 asists.
