RAILROAD BOWLERS
To ROLL TONIGHT
Central Pin-Knights Will Be
Out Strong for Star
FObS.
"KLAXON NIGHT" NEXT

At least fifteen teams will, 1t is ex-
pected, perform tonight in the Star
headpin tournament on the Iroquois
alleys, where the Central Railroad of
New Jersey pin knights are to hold
forth, special night having been
assigned to them. The Central rail-
road bowlers have never had a special
night in the Star headpin tournament
but many of them have performed as
members of various teams in former
tournaments conducted by the Star.
They feel, therefore, that they have
had lots of experience and should be
able to annex a goodly share of the
watch-fobs offered by the Star to
those who have high tallies. A mark
of 10 earns a gold watch-fob, while
a score between 100 and ITO is good
enough for a silver fob.
Michael j. Mullin is the manager of
the Central Railroad of New Jersey
bowlers, and he says that he will have
his men on hand so that the sport
may start by 1880 o'clock. He expects
that a number of well-known rail-
road men will be on hand. He hopes
to induce G. X. Armstrong, the dis
trict passenger agent of. the Central
Railroad of New Jersey in this Sec
general freight agent from the New
York office of the Central Railroad of
New Jersey, has not only promised to
attend but has also declared his in
tention of taking part in the competi-
ton. Others who Manager Mullin
expects to be present are S. B. Tart
man, general agent; e. W., Cutler.
freight agent, and ]. Van Doren,
agent.
The Star headpin. tournament is
now starting on the third week of the
season. SO far 126 teams, or $50 bowl
ers, have taken part in the sport.
This means that the average number
of teams per night is 1875, as the tour
nament has been conducted ten
nights Considering that but eight
teams appeared Friday night, when
the rain descended with such persist
ency, the average Is remarkably high.
"Klaxon Night is on the program
for tomorrow. this special night be-
ing set aside for the bowlers from the
firm of Lowell g. Mcconnell. The
manager is Joe Shuster and he says
that there will be at least ten teams
on the job.

On Saturday the Barringer High
School and Central High School
crosse country teams will hike Them
selves off Princeton way to run in
the Eastern scholastic cross country
championships, which are to be raced
over the hills and dales OF the coun-
try surrounding Princeton. Cross
country is truly applicable to the
Princeton course, as the route lies
across fields. up hills. through streams
and over the country road. Central,
by virtue of its superior showing over
De Witt Clinton High School, is con-
coded to have a much better chance
for the huge cup that is offered to
the school winning the team honors.

Two Newarkers Pull Oars
for Victorious Tiger Crew

PRINCETON. Oct. 27-The sting of
the football defeat by Dartmouth
was somewhat softened by Prince
tons crushing defeat of Yale on
Lake Carnegie Saturday afternoon.
Never was the race in doubt and the
Tigers. rowing with excellent rhythm
and finish, swept over the line with a
length of open water showing be-
tween the two shells.
The rowing conditions were almost
ideal with exception that the sky was
heavily clouded, but the water was
stirred by light breeze blowing up
the course that made just a slight
ripple. Princeton's time for the mile
and FIVE eighths was 8 minutes 80 1-3
seconds.
To Newark goes the honor of having
two representatives in the Princeton
boat. They are Ripley Quinbey and
Raymond Purdy.

Lagay Says Myer Is Wonder.
Central High Schools former track
star, Frank Lagay, was down from
Hanover Saturday to watch his college
eleven defeat Princeton. Between
gasps of some victory" he managed
to get off line on the Newarkers at
Dartmouth. or himself, he did not
have much to say, but he was enthu-
siastic about the running of Joe Myer,
his teammate at Central last year.
"Myer is running like a house afire
and will be right among the first men
in the Dartmouth-Pen
freshmen dual cross-country meet
next Saturday at Philadelphia" said
Lagay. Both of the Changers are
going strong" he continued, and are
expected to figure well in the intercol-
legiates. And we've got a fellow that
can put the shot farther with his
street clothes on than Pete Maxfield
in a track suit can heave it." Lagay
referred to Speers, a big Western
chap. who is matriculating at Dart
mouth.

The Dartmouth-P Princeton football
game on Saturday didn't prove any
thing. 1t was out of the question to
judge as between the teams during
play on such a field of slime and mud
The players were a sight, and as one
Princeton grad put it, "They look
more like bronzemen than they do
like football warriors" That Dart
mouth should have won wasn't any
thing particularly startling. The
score was to 0 and it might have
BEEN doubled without creating any
alarm. AS the game was played,
Dartmouth is entitled to all the credit
in the world. The Hanover boys did
outplay the Tigers and there isn't any
use making any bones about it, either.
But it wasn't football. No men could
do their best or show their best un-
der such conditions. Dartmouth
seemed to mind the slippery field
mighty less than did Princeton and
she played the game with more de-
termination than her rivals. She was
aggressive and ambitious and she was
not averse to taking all kinds of
chances. IF beaten, what of IL? II II
victor, look at the credit she would
get. The Tigers, on the other hand.
seemed rather fearful to take
chance until the very last thing. They
played as if they were afraid to move
IJ.,ff
ings. They beat themselves because
they did not go into the game with
vim to beat their opponents.
@
The defeat of Princeton by Dart
mouth, although elean-cut and de-
cisive under the conditions. will not
be accepted as a true test of the
Tigers form. We will have to wait
and see them fight again on a dry
gridiron. In the meantime, we are
not taking away any of the credit or
the honor won by Dartmouth. Truly,
the boys from Hanover put up a
grand struggle, and their success was
not despised in the least. The way
the game was played Princeton was
outshone at every turn. She couldn't
punt with Dartmouth at all and she
surely couldn't hold her feet as well
The Tigers seemed to yield under
pressure. although twice when in the.
danger zone and once on the one
yard line she held fast and prevented
what looked like an almost certain
touchdown. She had the same chance
again, but she couldn't do it, which
showed that she must have weak
ened as the game progressed. Just the
opposite was Dartmouth. You could
see that there was feeling" in the
game and you could see the Dart
mouth players grit their teeth and
plunge into the fray with a reckless
ness that was astounding. When the
Tigers yelled to hold them the
Dartmouth men came back with the
very saucy "You can't hold u.s." 1t
was bitter game, even out of the
mouths of the players.
C
What impressed me most with
Princeton was the patience that
Princeton displayed. She seemed to
be free and content in the first two
periods to prevent any damage and
to be even satisfied with no score
herself. So when the teams left the
field at the end of the first half the
Tigers were in rare favor. The Dart
