Princeton Beat Brown at Hockey Only
After Extra Period,
High Scores Made Bowling on Several
Alleys Very Interesting.

Princeton's hockey team defeated that
OF Brown at ST. Nicholas Rink last night
by a score OF 10 at New York. Al the
end of the second half the score was TO
and four extra periods were necessary
20 play OFF the tie. When the fourteen
men were ready TO drop from exhaustion
Lewis. of Princeton. made the winning
goal.
Before tho game began IL was thought
that Brown had no chance 20 win. as she
had never had a strong seven.
During tho first half the game looked
all Princeton. First Sammis, Browns
point. accidentally smashed the disc into
his own goal Then Coke made the second
Princeton tally on long angle shot.
The longer the boys from New England
played the better their game became. In
the second period Chew scored third
goal for the Tigers within the first min
ute
Then the Brown players drove the Tiger
back into his den once in a while the
goaded animal dashed out and back again.
During one OF these sallies the Brown
goal-tender. Hill, stopped lifted puck
with his nose After having the injury at
tended 10 he resumed play.
Then Brown had her inning. Budlong,
Paine and Lane scored at three-minute in
tervals and tied the score Four Brown
forwards piled up FIVE Princetonians In
front OF the Tigers lair, and then dropped
on top OF them in an effort to cage the
puck. but while the heap was untanglng
itself out came the black sphere. Ten sec
onds afterward the bell rang.
In the first extra period OF FIVE minutes
Budlong first put Brown in the lead and
then Lewis tied the score.
In the second extras period the New
Jersey players kept Hill busy stopping
pucks, but he was equal to the occasion.
Both teams played rough and hard in the
third extra session. but again both de-
lenses proved too much. Finally in the
fourth, Lewis won the game.

SYNDICATE To BUY TEAM

According TO dispatch from Buffalo
the truth has leaked out about the re-
cent visit OF President Ban Johnson. of
the American league. and Connie Mack.
manager Of the Philadelphia Athletics,
to Jimmy Collins. manager OF the Boston
Americans. II is said the strained rela 10
tions between John I. Taylor. owner Of
the Boston club. and Collips were the sub
ject Of the conference instead OF the
transfer of Rube Waddell 10 the Collins
team, as reported at the time
Apparently the rumors regarding the
coolness between Taylor and Collins
have not been exaggerated and the trou-
bile has reached an acute stage where
either Collins or Taylor must disappear
from activity in the affairs OF the Boston
club.
II Ia understood that the American
league as a body Is supporting Collins
and that a syndicate has been formed
to offer Taylor sl25.O0o for his holdings In
the club II the sale Is made three men

OF the club, and Collins will be one OF the
three
While I'm this city last month Taylor
announced that under no circumstances
Will he sell out. and also that he Is on
good terms with Collins and his other
players. I'm spite OF the many rumors TO
tho contrary.
The threat has been made that IN case
Taylor refuses TO sell there may be n
wholooale reorganization OF the American
league by which Taylor will lose the
Boston franchise.

Gunther had weighed I'm at l52.
There was much parleying until Cum

a substantial balm. and he went into the

In the third round Gunther fioored Tenn

a short count. This did not seem TO worry
the Australian fighter much. IA he came
back fresh as ever in the next round
The 10th round also was a trihe hot.

go out as there were vicious blows land

other that they seemed 10 take matters
easy in the 1lth.
The 18th and last round found both
men ready for the mill, and they went

twice in this round. but neither took time
for any count when down. But neither
could land the knockout punch.
They were fighting so hard at the end
that they did not hear the sbell. and had
to be pried apart by the referee.
