EGAN STRONG CANDIDATE.

Mike" Egan, Of Jersey City. is considered by
competent judges of handball to be the strongest

ago Egan has many Of the latters qualities, but
he has one grievous defect. That IS lack Of judg-
rnent at critical stages Of the game. This IN a
measure counterbalanced, however, by a remark
able pair of hands, strength Of service. unusual
agility and wonderful endurance. The patrons Of
the Jersey City court which Egan presides
believe that he is invincibe. They are willing to
back him against anybody. When Jim Fftz-
gerald the Irish champion, issued a challenge to
Casey TO write Fitzgerald, accepting all of his
conditions.
A rare exhibition OF double handed playing was
presented at the Brooklyn clubs court day or
two ago. the principals being Casey and Alderman

Dunno and Mike Egan. The play was rapid and

does not include the original outlay for cubholses

What has been accomplished with all this money?
great deal Careful study OF the results of the
moro important tournaments would indicate AT
least one pleasant outcome and that is the position
attained by strictly home bred amateurs men who
have been taught and trained on American links
The national championship this year proved be-
yond question that the highest place In the sport
can be held successfully by players who have
learned what they know this side OF the water.

the title OF American champion. as happened in the
case of Macdonald. Whgham and Douglas, VIII

firm basis for that.
There have been other interesting features. too
some of which seemed to have escaped the notice
they deserve. In watching the development OF the
game this season no has had better oppor-

In keeping in touch with clubs in all parts OF the

with more than ordinary keenness.
ITO the most interesting feature said MI
Kerr the other day, has been the development OF
the game geographical lines. By this mean the
organization of district associations with distinct
championships. This I believe to be the ultimate
solution Of the national championship problem

Princeton, y. J., Nov. "a (SpeciaD.-Discusslon OF
the Yale-Princeton game is still on among the un-
dersraduates, and they reason that the team
could have made much better showing H. regard
less of the fact that fumbling was conspicuous
among the backs the offensive had been assumed
against the New-Haven men.
This belief has been strengthened many points
by the result of the Yale-Harvard game. Through
out me season Yale, il is argued, played no more
consistent ball than did Princeton, and up to the
time of the championship game the latter seemed
to be slightly in the lead OF the Sons of ELL
The tactics employed by the Princeton coaches
are thought to have been wrong and. while the un-

on them for the defeat there is much comment
going on here which savors strongly Of their dis
