SETON HALL READY
FOR FORDHAM FIVE
Rival Teams viii Meet in Bas-
ketball Game at South Or
ange Tonight.
VISITING PLAYERS STRONG

Seton Halls varsity basketball team
has been putting in some hard work
in preparation for the game tonight
at the Seton Hall auditorium with the
Fordhsm University five. This game
is looked upon by Seton Halls stu
dents as one Of the biggest on the
schedule. The keenest of rivalry ex-
lists between the two institutions. The
Fordham aggregation is reported to
be an exceedingly fast and aggressive
one and the locals will most likely be
forced to extend themselves to the
limit in order to pull out on the long
end Of the score. Fordham is repre-
scented by one Of the most powerful
combinations that has worn the colors
of the big city team in a number Of
years. Included in its lineup is Dave
Dunn, the former Yale football and
basketball star
Captain Frank Flarity and Peter
Jones, of the Seton Hall team, have
been finding the basket with frequent
regularity Of late. The work Of these
two players stood out prominently in
last Saturdays game in which Seton
Hall defeated Brooklyn College. Last
year Seton Hall defeated Fordham
and the South Orange college boys
are out to repeat tonight.

Central High Schools basketball
team, with the exception of Louis
Lefkowitz, will look about the same
as that which represented the insti-
tuition last year. Lefkowitz has mi
grated to Barrlnger High School, and
will be seen playing with the team
representing that school. The loss of
Lefkowitz will not be felt so much
as Abramson, Shartof. Lehrhoff, Sa-
fer and Hopkins. of last years team.
are still at school. 1t was believed
earlier in the season that Abramson,
Shartoff and Lehrhoff would play on
outside basketball teams, but appar-
entity the fast trio intends TO devote
their attention to the school courts.
Coach Sargent does not intend to is
sue a call for candidates until after
the holidays. 1t is believed there are
some good youngsters at hand from
the grammar school grades. Central S
first game will be with players who
represented the school on the court
in former years.

INTEREST APLENTY
IN TWO-M|LE RUN
Handicap Event Should Prove
Fine Race at Tabs Games
Tonight.

While the work of Mel Sheppard
and Tommy Lennon will be watched
with interest tonight at the 7. A. B.
s. indoor athletic games in the First
Regiment Armory. Sussex avenue
and Jay street, there is another event
on the program which will probably
develop into an interesting affair
The two-mile handicap, in which local
boys will compete against some of
Manhattan's best" will most likely
provide big part of the excitement.
Local interest will be centred on
the work of Frank zuna, a Newark
boy, who Is sporting the silks of the
Irish-American Athletic Club, who
will start from the 135-yard mark
Zuna in cross-country runs held in
Manhattan has attracted considera-
BILE attention of late. Arthur E.
Stokes, of the Prudential; Robert
Staggering, of the T. A. B. S.; Fred
Seyfarth, of st. Columbia Catholic
Club, and James H. Fultz are the
Newarkers who will have distance on
Harry ]. Smith, the national two-mile
champion, who will be on the honor
mark.
Athletes who have competed in
this city before, and who have at
tracted attention are also numbered
among the starters in the two-mile
handicap. Louis Scott, who at one
time represented the South Paterson
Athletic Club, and who Is now a
member of the Long Island Athletic
Club, will start from the 60-yard
line. SID Leslie. another Long
Island Athletic Club runner, has
Just begun to hit his stride, accord
ing to reports, and 1t is probable
that he will make things interesting
for the back markers. Leslie will
start with a 40-yard allowance.
Captain Richard Hudson will lead
the Prudential athletes at the games
tonight. Hudson will compete as
member of the relay team in the 1000
yard race.
Another Newark athlete who is ex-
pected to make good tonight Is Joe
Higgins, a member of the First regi-
ment. Higgins is entered in the 70
yard DASH his favorite distance. He
has a 9-foot handicap.

LASER might have registered fresh
man record in this event, but Coach

over for 10 feet inches. In high

make up the varsity squad. In the

NEW COLLEGE BODY
To GOVERN ROWING

eventually to abolish both the Yale

gattas and institute in their places
week of racing modelled along the
lines of the English Henley, became
known publicly when the establish
ment of the Collegiate Rowing Asso-
citation was announced. This body,
it was reported, was formed at a
meeting called recently by the Uni
versity of Pennsylvania rowing au-
thorities and attended by the man.
ayers of the Cornell, Harvard, Prince
ton, Yale, Navy and Columbia crews
Manager Lackey, of the Yale
crews, has been appointed by the
association to draw up plans and
regulations which will be submitted
to the rowing authorities of the va
rious colleges for their approval and
for ratification at the next meeting
of the association to be held in New
Haven.
The reduction of the length of the
championship races from four miles
to three, or even one and q half
miles, was advocated by several of
the managers at the meeting here,
and it is proposed to encourage the
smaller colleges and preparatory
schools to take up rowing as a ma
jor sport.
Manager Fred Davis, Of the Penn
sylvania crews, who has been chosen
chairman of the new association. has
announced that the Yale varsity and
Junior crews will race the Univer-
sity of Pennsylvania over the mile
and half course on the Schuylkin

ward, Princeton, Annapolis and Cor

best total of the season, q 1862, in the
last game. and thus escaped triple
defeat. The Nationals scored 1898 in

in this game was largely due to the

Combination.
MAYSER LAUDED AT F. & M.

Bob Folwell. the Washington and
Jefferson coach, will have to fit in
several new cogs before his great
football machine gets working
again as smoothly as it did this year.
Graduations of star players will prac-
tically ruin the team. Three of the
backfield veterans will be graduated
and some of the other stars may not
return next year.
Paterson, giant left tackle; Bill
Younkins, right guard; Goodwin,
quarterback; Spiegel, halfback, and
Young, fullback, will be lost, of the
regular players Cruikshank, centre,
and Bovill. left end, may not return.
Witherspoon, q substitute guard and
tackle. who played a fine game this
year in many contests and who won
his letters for the first time, will also
leave by the graduation route.
Several of these men have not
played out their full quota at WASH
ington and Jefferson. Spiegel played
two years at Lafayette before enter
Ing here; Young had one year at Chi
cago University, and Paterson
played one year at Penn and season
at Michigan Agricultural College.
Eruikshank and Bovill have complet-
ed three years of football at Wash
1ngton and Jefferson, but are uncer-
tain about their return. both desiring
Ito take up work in technical schools.
SErhe veteran ranks of the Red and
Black will be depleted appreciably
and Folwell will have his hands full
in keeping the eleven up in the posi-
dion it has occupied the past two sea-
IONS.
Folwell has had several flattering
offers from other institutions, but pre-
fers to remain at Washington and
D Jefferson. He has been developing a
fine second string squad and predicts
p hat in 1915, in spite of the loss Of his
Veteran stars, he will have young
