disnute. But right there he stops.
His services to the Yankees have been
worthless. He executed orlilianl
plays, and ne avoided the more I'M
portant ones. He performed ike a
house afire when the Yankees hadn I
chance to win, and he played like
lollypop when the game was IN
the wood" Chase was pettish ana
hard to handle, and rarely took Things
very serious. He suffered considera-
BILE through illness, especially in re-
cent years, and he was much Out OF
the game. He goes to Chicago with
all the facts of his failings we'll
known to the men at the other END OF
the deal. If they can do anything
with Chase, success to them. He was
worthless in New York. He may be a
Jewel in Chicago. 1t has been
known to have happened before, we
might remark.
G
The trade of Chase for Rollie Zeider,
an infielder, and Borton, first base
man and outfielder, is not a particu-
larly even exchange, as the value of
PLAYERS go. Chase is worth these two
men and a fat financial consideration
in the bargain, in one way, but in
another way, he doesn't measure up
to the scale of the Chicago men. The
Yankees, however, will be better off
all around, and they may be able to
win a few ball games. Chase should
have been retired from the Yankees
when he ceased to be the manager
That was the biggest mistake Frank
Farrell ever made and maybe Harry
Wolverton would have been over
there now if Chase had not been
around.
@
| Prince Hal, as Chase is called. has
He was offered to the Boston Red Sox
for Larry Gardner, the third base
man, and he was offered to the st.
! Louis Americans for Rhody Wal
lace. In both instances, Boston and
| st. Louis refused to make the deal,
but instead offered a lot of junk in
exchange for Hal. The Chicago trade
has been on the market for some
time, but just what players would
! figure in the Chicago end was not
quite certain. Zelder and Borton are
! good enough-for Chase

Pennsylvania victory in the inter-
collegiate championships was not I'M
expected at all. That she would win
was looked upon in numerous quar-
tiers as quite the proper thing. Cor
nell, of course, was the favorite and
the general choice, with Dartmouth
! and California given outside chances.
! Harvard. Yale and Princeton were
little thought of, yet Harvard was
right there knocking at the door when
the points were being added. Cor
nell's showing was rather disappoint-
ing, but improved form came from
so many sources in the events in
which the Ithacans figured to win
that the upset in the general result
was quite natural when the entire
summary Is sifted out. With the
order of the finish Pennsylvania
Harvard, Michigan and Cornell, the
Intercollegiate were well contested
and the results consistently attained
Pennsy was best, although / was
4 among the others who fell with Cor.

If Cornell was disappointed in tn,
general result, she had much to b,
proud of in the performance of Johr
Paul Jones, her sensational runner
in the one-mile event. Jones, special
ly prepared, ran the greatest race a
the distance ever witnessed. He no
only showed the way all the way. bu
he covered the mile in minutes IA q
seconds. a new American record, an
just one full second better than hi
own best previous efforts Jones,
is said. Is going to retire from attn
lstics whom he graduates this month
