NEWARK WILL HAVE
QUINTET IN LEAGUE
Tri-State Basketball Circuit Of
ficially Organized With
Eight Clubs.
WILL START DECEMBER 10

The Tri-State Basketball League
was officially instituted at the Grand
Union Hotel, New York city, satur-
day afternoon. when seven managers
of the eight teams that are to make
up the new league gathered and
agreed to go into an eight-club or
ganization. The temporary organiza-
ton of the league was effected and a
committee is now at work getting to-
gether the first draft of the season's
schedule.
The managers represented at the
meeting were Manager Shanahan, Of
the st. Gabriel team; Manager Shea,
of the Troys; Manager Harris, of the
Brooklyn team; Manager Bo9and, of
the Newark team; Manager Cava-
naugh, Of the Harrison team; Man
ager Manning, of the Point A. c..
team, and Manager Godfrey, of the
Norwalk team.
The temporary officers were en-
powered to draft a preliminary
schedule. to include the eight cities,
as follows: North Hudson, Harrison,
Stamford, Norwalk, Sheepshead Bay,
Brooklyn, Newark and Bayonne. The
teams will play in the various cities
on the following nights: Brooklyn and
Stamford, Monday night; North Hud-
son, possibly Tuesday night; Newark,
Wednesdays Harrison, Thursday; Nor

mrday; Bayonne, Sunday afternoon.

CRACK ". &. ]. TEAM LEADS ALL
IN PILING UP POINTS ON GRIDIRON

Now that the final chapter has been
written to the 1918 football history, 1t
is interesting at this time to scan the
complete records of the various col
lege gridiron teams. 1t fell to Bob
Folwelrs Washington and Jefferson
College eleven to carry off the high
scoring honors. Folwells men proved
most efficient in the art of point-mak-
ing, their enormous total of BAT plac-
ing them first on the list by a neat
margin. Only thirteen points were
registered against the formidable
western Pennsylvania team.
w. and j. did not lose a game this
year, and the only contest that failed
to result in victory for them was
the tilt with Yale, in which neither
side was able to score. 1t was the
most successful season that W. and j.
has ever had.
In the matter of scoring, the Navy's
record was spectacular. Twenty-Five
of the twenty-nine points registered
against the Midshipmen were com
piled by the Army in that all
important game Saturday. Until they
faced the soldiers the midshipmen
had been scored on only by Bucknell
in contest won by the Navy, 70 to z.
Annapolis output of points totals 3O4.
The Middies and w. and j. are the
only two teams to pass the 300 mark.
Glenn Warmers Carlisle Indians are
close to the 800 mark, with 2s5 against
6S.
AS rule, the scoring this year does
not come up to the 1912 records. The
Indians led the country last season
with a total of 504 points to their OPP
ponents' ia. Vanderbilt, Princeton
and Georgetown, in particular, were

to the fact that teams are now meet

Joe Kelley, the veteran Toronto
manager, Is slowly but surely weed
ing out all of the left-handed hitters
in the once famous Maple Leaf line
up. Kelley is credited with the state
ment that never again so long as he
leads the Canucks or any other team
Will he allow himself to become over
burdened with southpaw stickers.
The Maple Leafs were easy prey
all OF last season for southpaw pitch
ers, particularly Wyatt Lee, of the
Tigers When Lee trimmed the Maple
Leafs time and again at Hanlon's
Point the Toronto fans began to turn
on Kelley for the first time In his
career and while they used to call
the Newark southpaw Lucky Lee"
in other seasons they chided Kelley
this year for allowing the swarthy
left-hander to esacpe.
Kelley has remarked at different
moments after Lee has beaten his
team, that he'd rather have his team
wallop Wyatt than win the pennant.
With Bob Fisher, Enos Kirkpatrick,
Benny Meyer, Ray Borton and Will
lam Kelly, the eX-Pirate catcher.
Toronto has fine array of right
handed hitters in line so far for next
season. O'Hara Is about the only
left-hander left in Torontos makeup
Harry Smith, manager of the
Tigers, received a telegram today
confirming the report that Manager
Bill Donovan, of the Providence club
has clinched Savannah for a training
camp. Smith had hopes that the re-
port might not be true, but he will
now have to look elsewhere. AS told
recently the Tigers will be In demand
because they won the pennant last
season, but Smith is anxious to get a
camp where the conditions will be as
ideal as they were at Savannah last
year.

British Tennis Officials
Oppose International Body

LONDON, Dec. 1.-International
legislation in lawn tennis which will
have an important bearing upon the
future of the Davis Cup will be
enacted tomorrow at the annual
meeting of the English national gov
erning body here. The Britons will
likely repudiate the efforts of the
newly instituted International Fed
Grafton, which seeks to become the
world governing body for the game,
to establish worlds championships.
The English official bulletin says
that federation of governing bodies
should concern itself exclusively with
the revision and maintenance OF uni
form laws. 1t objects to the worlds
championship meetings." saying such
title is only adopted in profession
allied sport, and Its association with
championship meetings organized for
amateurs is derogatory.

YINGLING NOMINAL LEADER

Though Brooklyn finished In the
depths of the second division in the

Superbas had the honor OF having
both the nominal and the actual
leader in the individual batting aver
ages published today. Earl Wing

with grand average of $50.
Cravath, of the Philadelphia team,
came next to Daubert, with BAL.
Heinie Zimmerman, who stood high
last season, slumped down to a .Sf3
average this year, gathering in that
percentage during the brief spells
when he was not ostracised because
of his constant chickering's with the
umpires.
Brooklyn also showed to good adj
vantage In the team batting aver
ages. Though New York led, the
Superbas ranked second on the list
first sacker, whom went from RocheB-
ter to Boston, had a mark of 1908 for
twenty-five games. Hans Wagner
Just got within the select circle with
300, as his percentage.
Jake Daubert's record with the stick
this season. coupled with his high
class fielding earned him the auto
mobile awarded to the most vaiu-
able player in the league every sea-
son. Jake is just beginning to get
the real prominence he deserves. As
a first sacker Daubert has few
equals, and for consistency he far
sexcels Hal Chase.
Hartley Myers and Fletcher were
the best stickers for the Giants. This
former pair finished In the 800 class,
while Fletcher hit for .297.
