DEFEAT FOR HARVARD.
Columbia Wins Basketball Game,
5cith Plenty to Spare.

Columbia defeated Harvard in a fast game Of
basketball the local floor last night by a
score of 1S to g. 1t a. game in which the
Morningside team came up to a mark that they
have not shown before this year passing swift
ly and surely and shooting with precision that
made their opponents look at times like mere
sChoobOys
From the spectators point OF view the game
was full of interest 1t abounded In long passes
fast dribhltng and attempts to score from every
corner OF the court. In the first half the Har-
ward men kept Columbia working 10 hold the
lead that the Blue and White gained when
Cuthel scored two points fouls that were
made soon after the whistle blew. The Crimson
men We're aggressive. and twice getting the
hall worked il down the floor and scored the
only two field goals that they got during the
game. Browns shot from a foul gave them one
more. When the half ended Harvard had five
points, while two field goals and three foul shots
had given the Blue and White seven points.
No little credit for Columbia's victory should
go to Captain Cuthel. who again displayed
the form that made him such a reliable man
last year. His shooting OF fouls was almost
perfect as he missed only one out Of seven tries
Although he greatly outweighed by Brooks
against whom he was ptted he clearly out

Columbia on account of bad knee White,

several mufs that may have kept down the
score somewhat Brooks and Allen scored the
field goals for Harvard. Brooks getting his on

TIMELY AUTO TOPICS.
More Trouble for Garages Confer
ence on Grating Cars.

Deputy Fire Commissioner Hugh Bonner ana
the members Of the Municipal Explosive Com
mission gave a hearing yesterday to representa-
tives Of the New York Automobile Trade Assoc
citation and the Automobile Club of America, in
order to get the views of the automobile inter
ests in the matter Of gasolene fumes escaping
from garage drains into sewers, and how 10
remedy the nuisance
c. r. Mabley appeared for the New York Au-
tomobe Trade Association, and s. NJ. Butler,
secretary OF the Automobile club Of America,
with T. f. Winters superintendent Of the clubs
garage appeared for the club.
Mr. Mabley said the dealers were perfectly
willing to comply with all the laws framed with
a view TO making safe all sewer connections in
the vicinity of garages. and stated if the Fire
Department would devise, or cause To be de-
Nised a suitable trap arranged &C. free the gar
age drains of gasolene yapor the dealers and
garage owners would gladly install the device
Immediately.
Mr. Bonner said it was up to the dealers and
garage owners to Install proper appliance
without department aid, and that unless proper
changes had been made in q given time-noticc
Of length of time To- be served later upon the
deaIers-permits to maintain garages would be
revoked.
The trouble is said to be due to a great extent
10 the practice of washing the machinery of the
cars with gaSOlene and also by chduffeurS wash
ing OIL and grease from their hands with it. A
large amount OF sasoiene is thus allowed to run
into the city sewers. In many garages there
are rules which prohibit this but il is practically
impossible to enforce them There is little or
no leakage resulting from filling fuel tanks. and
garage owners are of the opinion that scarcely
any gasolone Is allowed to escape at such times.
Grating automobiles for transatlantic ship
ment thoroughly discussed Yesterday after
noon at meeting between representatives of
the various motoring organizations and steam
ship lines held at No. 10 Broadway. The auto
mobIlists present were Albert r. Shattuck Wal
dron Williams and A. L. Wcstgard of the Auto
mobile Club OF America; Frederick II. Elliott.
secretary OF the American Automobile Associa-
ton, Alfred Reeves. general manager Of the
American Motor Car Manufacturers Associa-
ton. and J. : Marvin. traffic manager for the
Association OF Licensed Automobile Manu-
faCturers.
The steamship men said that Il would be
impossible To- accede 10 the demands owing TO
the way the present boats are constructed. They
also said ii would not be advisable To leave cars
on deck. can be done In the case of coastwise
boats or those which travel over short routes.
The ocean liner men regretted that they could
not see any Other way at present 10 ship auto
mobiles. II may he that better provision will
be made for carrying cars on some OF the newer
boats and those now under construction. II Is
possible that the charges for hosting and light
erage may be reduced.
