BIG RETURN MATCH Y. M. R. c. and Independents to Finish Fight for Bowl
 ing Supremacy. TOMORROW AT TUXEDO Riley Rolls GA in Three Strings, Still His Team Loses to the Clin-
 ics' Quintet.

Tomorrow night at the Tuxedo al- leys the return match between the Y. M. R. c. and Tuxedo five men, three men, two men and individual teams. for the championship of the state will be played. The Republican club has the advantage over their contempor- aries in that they defeated the Inde- pendents at the Y. M. R. c. alleys in the first series.
 The five men match will be the most important event and the need to win three straight to capture the two ser ies and two out of the three games to tie their worthy opponents. The only event in which the Independents carried off the honors at the Y. NJ. R. C. alleys was the individual match. In this event a split by Mix in the tenth frame lost the second game of the ser- les and the series itself.
 Both teams are confident of winning the championship and the clash will be hot one. The Y. NJ. R. c. Ave won their series on merits and the team which wins to-morrow's series will have to do the same.

Columbia Soccer Team Looking to Yale for Post Season
 Series.
HAvERFORD GAME SURPRISE
Gordon Brown and His Frccbootcrs Coming Up Here on Sat-
 urday.

Last Saturdays soccer game, which the Yale team won from Haverford by aascore of to 1, was the first soccer game that Yale has ever won and the first that Haverford has ever lost since the introduction of the sport to Hav- erford five years ago
 A few minutes before the game be- gan one of the Haverford men in the track house said: Well, we had a hard game to win from Cornell yes- terday, but the game to-day will be like taking candy from the children" Captain Hack Moves of the basketball team, who recently joined the soccer squad, heard the remark and decided to lay for the man. Whether or not there was any serious clash Is not known. Moves made one or two fouls. Yale won tho game and the only score made by Haverford was made after fouls by Yale.
 For team work and fast playing the Yale men was far better than the Haverford champions, with four years of solid victories behind them. Im- medately after the news of the vic- tory had been flashed over the wires. the management of the Columbia team wrote to Yale to arrange for a post season series of games to decide whether Yale or Columbia should head the intercollegiate league. This may seem little premature, but Co., 1 lumbia took the action remembering that Haverford had defeated the Nor ningside players. and that Yale in be- | ing able to defeat Haverford would unless something unforeseen occurred, be able to defeat all the other teams of the league.
 Yale has three more league games to play. These are April 4: Pennsyl- vania at New Haven; April II, liar ward at Cambridge; April IS, Cornell at Ithaca. The present standing of the league follows:

 ALLAMERICAN CREW Probability That One Will ba Sent to England Next
 Summer. YALE TO BE REPRESENTED Seymour Helping to Raise the Money -lde and Auchincloss Sure
 of Seats.
YALE TO BE REPRESENTED

A movement has been started to send crew chosen from the boats of the American colleges to England next July to take part in the regatta at the Olympic games. In the makeup of such a crew Yale will naturally be represented and the president of the Yale navy. Charles Seymour of this city, is assisting in the raising of mon- ey to send the crew to England.
 Seymour has seen the manager of the Harvard crew and the latter is also very much in favor of the pro- ject. The crew would be chosen from Yale and Harvard, and also from the eights which race at Poughkeepsie, the curtain raiser to the New London race. Representatives might also be chosen from those who row in the American Henley at Philadelphia.
 The cost of sending crew to Eng land would be close to s10,000. It would be necessary to take about six teen oarsmen along, trainer, man ager and several rubbers. Shells would also have to be taken and 1t is prob able that several of them would be broken.
 The race in England would come about the middle of July and the members of the crew would leave Am erica soon after the races at New Lon- don in order to become accustomed to the English course. Captain Ide of the Yale crew would be sure of seat in the boat if he would go along. Auchincloss is another Yale man who would be found in the makeup of the crew.
 Manager Seymour said last night: We are trying to raise the money to send the crew to England, and I, per- sonally am very much in favor of hav- ing the American colleges represented by crew at the Olympic games. The cost will be large, but I think if the colleges cooperate 1t will be possible to raise the money"
 It is said that Julian w. Curtiss of New York;, who is the advisory coach of the Yale navy. is very much inter- ested in the idea of sending an Arneri- can crew to the Olympic games.

COLLEGE GOLFERS.
No Foreign Invasion by Intercolle-
 giate Association.

New York. March 25.-There will be no foreign invasion by an intercollegl- ate golf association team during the coming season, This has been reluct- antly admitted by the collegians, but only after weeks of persistent effort, The real hazard in the way is the fail- ure of four of the golfers to secure the necessary paternal consent. They are P. H. Wilder of Harvard, president of the Intercollegiate Golf association Robert Abbott of Yale: Ralph Peters, jr., of Princeton. and W. Nllowes Nor gan, jr., of Harvard &
 Without these four, who are among the foremost playerssin the association, 1t is considered that any attempt to gather together a representative team would be next to useless.
 Ellis Knowles of Yale, the intercol- legiate champion and W. T. West of Princeton. may go abroad, but they will play as individuals.

 As Kinsey referees nearly all their games he will probably referee this game also. If he does all rough play~ ing will be done away with.
