PENN DEFEATED BY YALE SQUAD
 AT BASKETBALL

In 2 game featured by cratic, all though at times brilliant playing Yale defeated Pennsylvania in basketball at New Haven last night by a score of 31 to 14. The game was an excep- tiona1ly good one to watch and the large crowd which attended showed it's Appreciation of the playing of both teams.
 Yale gained 9, lead in the early part of the game and maintained it until the end, despite the; brilliant attempts of PennsyIvania's men to even up the score. Captain Jourdet of Pennsyl- vania, who did not start the game, was substituted for Bloom in the sec ond half and for a time it looked as though he would lead his men a fast enough pace to take the game, but the lead gained in the first period was too much of a handicap

preventing possible understandings between club owners and arbiters. If the Commissioners will go a bit fur ther and instruct the referees to com pei strict observance of the rules of boxing, they will earn the thanks of all lovers of clean sport. Also a revoca- ton of the rule prohibiting decisions would strike the popular chord.
 Young Joe shugrue, the Jersey lightweight, will have to be reckoned with the leaders of that division in cent graduate from the feathers and one of the first jobs asked of him in the lightweight division was to go ten rounds with Leach Cross Shu- grue surprised everybody including his friends by outpointing Leach by a wide margin.
 Of the many local or nearby light weights sprung on the fans during the year and a half that boxing has been under State control, Young Shugrue looks the best. He is cleverer than the ordinary boxer and one of the I've ever seen. He looks a stayer, too. At the finish of the Cross bout he was lively and chipper while Leach on the other hand showed signs of distress.
 Shugrue hiked over to Youngstown, Ohio, a few days later and beat Phil bTOCE2,l the Cl6V6ldAO SCIapPSI. AA 4AA not mistaken the boy has the making of a high class boxer and while pos sib1y not yet equal to the task of beat ing champions he has plenty of time ahead to learn and improve A match between Shugrue and Jimmy Duffy, the Lockport lightweight who has been coming along very fast, should make an interesting set-to and give the fans line on the champion ship possibilities of the boys.
 surprise party is one Teddy Hubbs, of Pittsburgh, who boxed George Kirk wood at the Sharxey A. c. last week. Kirkwood has been locally regarded as little short of the top notch, and the easy manner in which Hubbs outpoiut- ed him stamped the Pittsburgher as one of the very best feathers in the country.
 Hubbs may be offered a match with Johnny Kilbane, although the latter came in for the usual banning by To- cal critics because he failed to stop Young Drfscoll, local boxer, the other evening" But as Johnny proved that he can still draw the sheke1s to the box office in large gobs, and as that 8 what promoters are after, I imagine the club owners will not allow the ad- verse criticisms of Johnny's skill to in- terfere with their plans for the charn~ pion's occasional appearance in local

MARSANS DOING GREAT WORK IN
 CUBA THIS YEAR
fspringdeId union1


 According to the latest baseball av- erages from Havana Marsans, the for mer New Britain player, has a, bat ting average of .538 in 10 games iD the Cuban league this winter In 39 times at bat he has made 21 hits and scored 12 runs. A Havana paper says: Manager MaEsans is playing better than ever before in his life. His hitting is better every game; he hits all pitchers to all corners, and his base running and aggressive work on the bases is a feature of every game he plays
 He had three hits Thursday out of five times up. He also stole three ba- ses and did everything to win. He is sure to make great hit this summer up North. The National league fans will have something to look at when they see the speedy Cuban at work Marsans is the greatest player Cuba ever had, and the fans turn out just to watch him make monkeys of every pitcher and make every catcher throw his best, only to fail to get him.

 Manager Connie Mack of the Phila- delpKia Athletics is very anxious to get Green, the former Holyoke pitch CT now with the New York Americans. He will confer with Manager Chance at the American league meeting in New York next week. Mack is said to be willing. to give Catcher .Schang and bunch of money for Green.

In regard to Ray Keating. the local boy with the New York Americans, the New York Sun says: James Callahan, manager of the White Sox, has just made it clear that he too will try to get a pitcher from Chance. Callahan ad- rnits that he has no hope of securing Ray Caldwell. but he thinks that he can make a successful offer for Keat- ing, the big Lawrence twirler.

practical knowledge You may tell a
child something a dozen times or read

be done, and yet it may not understand.
But let the child do the thing just once.
then he surely will know how. This is

A child should be so trained that there
will grow up in him a longing and eager
