TITLE FOR HARVARD
Conceded Champion in 1915 College
Base Ball.

NEW YORK, July 5-Harvard with
out doubt won the college base ball
championship for 1915 with a seasons
record of twenty-three games won and
five lost. but the Crimson team was
one of the lightest hitting mines that
Cambridge has had in years. 1t re-
manned for the Army to take the team
batting honors with an average of .31s
for twenty-one games.
Tufts and Brown each produced
teams worthy of ranking close to Har-
ward. but neither played through as
long a schedule nor faced the opposi-
ton which Harvard had to wrestle
with. Tufts, with seventeen games
won out of nineteen played, has the
best winning average, while Brown,
with eighteen victories and four de-
feats, is rated just below Harvard in a
tie for fourth place with Syracuse
Gerhardt of the Army nine, led the
Individual batters with an average of
.407, but Adams of the Navy, with 400
darlington of Brown. with .391, and
Watt of Columbia with 1856, were not
far behind. darlington was the lead
ing slugger with thirty-one hits and
fifty-one total bases, which included
two home runs. six triples and two dou-
bles. Watt of Columbia and Stafford of
Tufts were the leading run getters with
an average of IL per game, while Ger
hardt led the base stea1ers with an
average of 1908 a game.

mel by the dredges. The section ex-
tends for approximately $500 feet
parallel to the canal and for about
1900 feet back from the canal axis.
The section is known as Old Culebra
slide. because here occurred the first
great slide in the canal. which caused
many persons to fear that the water
way could never be finished. The pres
ent movement. however. has been very
slow. although a short time ago it was
discovered that more rapid motion
had set in. The engineers declare the
entire movement is wholly a surface
one, which will not precipitate a large
quantity of debris into the canal. Nor
do they believe its removal will be
other than a matter Of time.
The condition of Cucaracha and New
Cuiebra slides is all that could be
wished, the engineers declare. At the
toe of Cucaracha the channel has
reached practically its planned width
and depth. and now the dredges are
largely occupied with removing such
small quantities of debris as are loosed
by drilling operations. In front of New
Culebra the channel has practically
been cleared. All movement in both
slides has ceased.
