be successful, bu. Sammy Strang, the

Cadets first pitcher, IN the nick OF
time. The final score was IL TO IN
IVES, Points favor.
Both teams scored thrice in the
opening inning, i've of Swarthmore' s
seven hits being garnered off Mcmahon
in that frame. Errors coupled with
some timely hitting by Merrillat and
Hobbs put the home team on even
terms fl the same frame.
Loose fielding gave tho. visitors four
more TALES IN their half of the fifth,
although they got only one hit. The
Army tailed three times also in that
inning. and then tied the game up in
the sixth.
Sarcka. a plebe, won his own game
in the seventh when he scored Bradley
on a double to right. Harry featured
in the fielding by a pretty catch of a
high pop foul off Collins bat in the
seventh. 1t is now nine straight FOR
the Army.

agreed to adjourn the game after thir-

Making Things Clear
On Basketball Action

ing next years schedule, as was stated
in the notice and as was we'll known,
no representative was present from
Columbia. In fact, the meeting was
held for half hour while the officers

Office Of DR.. Meyan. Of the Departments
Of Physical Education, and 10 the homo
of the graduate manager in an effort
10 get q Columbia representative 20 the
meeting. Columbia's absence was par
ticularly annoying inasmuch as two
sDecial meetings were held in 1914 at
the instance Of Columbia before the
1915 schedule was drawn satisfactorily
to Columbia. These extra meetings
made necessary extra trips for the
other managers to New York, which is
particularly serious 10 Cornell and
Dartmouth on account Of long distance

"As far as the eligibility rules were
concerned. they have been brought up
twice before in the last two years and
have had full discussion. They were
brought up in the executive committee
meeting this spring and unanimously
recommended. The recommendation of
the executive committee was in turn
passed unanimously with one amend
ment by the league meeting.
They were not aimed specifically at
Columbia or at any one team. They
affect in part three teams in the league.
The other three teams were unaf-
fected. Both OF the other teams who
will lose players by the rule bore their
share OF constructing the eligibility
rules, agreeing that all six teams
should be on the same basis and. as
has been stated, the rules were passed
unanimously.
the members of the league feel that
the situation has not been fully under
stood at Columbia and by the New
York newspapers and therefore the
league issues this statement"

In another ten-round contest Leach
Cross, the ever popular East Side
dentist, will engage Packey Hommey,
the Italian lightweight, and this con-
test, although not digntied by the
presence Of champions, bids fair to be
none the less interesting. Cross, with
his we'll known hitting ability, and
Hcmmey, gamest of the game and furi-
ously aggressive, ought to make the fur
fly.
After an absence of two years or
more Kilbane will make another bid
for local popularity. For some reason
or other the Cleveland lad has never
been able to establish himself with
New York's boxing enthusiasts. II may
be that his skill was beyond the ken OF
many, for in most cities kilbane is
hailed as a real champion, which, in
deed, he is. A master of defensive
tactics and wizard at blocking
punches as they are started. Kilbane
has fought what looked TO many like \
slow, uninteresting bout. As a matter

Secretary of the League Is
sues a Statement on
New Eligibil-
ity Rule.

With a view to setting the Columbia
University basketball authorities right
on the new eligibility rules adopted at
a meeting last month. the lntercolle-
giate Basketball League issued state
ment Yesterday explaining in detail
how the rules were amended.
The statement, which was mailed TO
The Tribune from the Office of Ralph
Morgan, secretary of the league, reads
as follows:
From comments in New York City
newspapers and comments reaching the
ears of officers of the Intercollegiate
Basketball League from Columbia men,
1t seems that there is considerable mis-
understanding at Columbia University
in regard TO the action taken by the
league at its annual spring meeting,
on March 20, 1915, on the subject of
eligibility.
There seems to be the impression
that the league, or rather rve OF It's
members, met without the knowledge
of the Columbia authorities and passed
rules aimed directly at Columbia.
This is not in accordance with the
facts. The meeting was the regular
spring meeting of the league. Co
lumbia received the same notice as was
sent to the other members. A copy Of
the notice was sent 10 the Columbia
undergraduate manager and reply
was received from him stating that he
would be present. The date, time and
place cf meeting was mentioned in his
acknowledgment, so there could have
Deer no misunderstanding.
Similarly a copy Of the notice was
sent 20 the Columbia member of the
executive committee. notifying him of
the meeting of the executive committee
a half hour before the league meeting,
and of the league meeting itself. No
reply was received from him, although
one was requested, and although every
other member OF the executive com
mittee acknowledged the notice.
Notwithstanding that the meeting
