colleges were quick TO seize the chance
for real limbering up on the open

The game went seven innings, and
some good batting and fielding was
shown by both teams. Columbia scored
run in both the first and second inn
ings and was never headed. Big George
Smith, twirling game for the frst
time in two years, pitched four innings
for Columbia and was in fine fettle,
striking out eight batsmen and allow
ing only two hits.
Smith splintered his kneecap in prac-
tic last spring and was out for the en-
tire year. after being the college SEN
sation Of the year before. Captain
O'Neale followed Smith in the box and
struck out five more in the last three
innings. Farrell and O'Connor, for
Manhattan, both pitched good ball in
spots, but allowed nine hits between
them.
Coakley tried out fourteen men. in
order TO give subs and regulars alike a
workout. The season opens for the
Blue and White on next Monday, when
City College lines up on South Field:

"Not my way" said Miss Kay. Get
out"
Freeman looked at his followers,

W.R. HEARST FIGHTS
BEING DISCIPLINED
Counsel for Associated Press
Accuses Him of Trying 10
Fool the Public"

Justice Benton in the Supreme Court
began yesterday the hearing OF SUIT
brought by William r. Hearst to re-
strain the Associated Press from TAX
ing any steps 10 discipline him. Mr..
Hearst obtained a temporary injunc-
ton several months ago, when he was
asked TO appear before the board of
directors TO answer charges.
The offence with which Mr.. Hearst is
charged by the Associated Press is that
he published "The San Francisco EX-
aminer" with the further title of Oak
land Edition, "and caused it to be circu-
lated in Oakland, to the injury Of The
Oakland Tribune" Mr.. Jennings, OF
Stetson, Jennings & Russell, counsel
for the defendant, said it was not con-
tended that Mr.. Hearst's intent was
fraudulent, but that he tried TO fool
the public.
Samuel Untermyer, counsel for Mr..
Hearst, said the question was whether
the bylaws of the Associated Press
transcribed its charter. lie admitted
that suspension would be disastrous to
Mr. Hearst, as it would be impossible
to organize rival organization Of
equal power, but claimed that the As
sociated Press was trying TO stife com
petition by determining the typOgraph-
ical form of Mr.. Hearst's newspaper.
THE next thing we know" said Mr..
Untermyer, "it may try to run our edl-
torial columns"
Mr.. Jennings argued that Mr.. Hearst
had mistaken his remedy. He said the
matter was not at this time a subject
for the court. Before it becomes so, he
said, the publisher must present HIM
self to the board of directors of the
Associated Press to settle any differ
ence in the Interpretation of the by
laws. by which Mr.. Hearst was bound
