Harvard Has ~ Chances ut Goal,
but McGiIi Wins, I to q.

BosToN, Feb. 5.-Harvard lost to the
McG.ll University hockey team tonight,
the Canadians winning by to o. Har-
ward, playing by far the best game on
offence Il has put UP this year. was
unable to score because Of the wonder

of which were sensational. The visitors
attack was weak in comparison with
Harvards, but OF tho eight chances

producer of the winning point lie

goal Bill Clafiin. the Harvard captain,
almost stopped him, but Rainboth
jumped TO the side boards and drove
home his goal.
The match was fast all the way
through and Harvards speed was
shown by Mann's stops in spite OF the
fact that the Canadians played four
men on defence continually and some
times five. Phillips, who won Haryard's
last three matches, got in several ac-
curatc shots but every one was inter-
cepted by Mann. whose work at the

APPELLATE DIVISION
VOTES FOR HAGEMAN
Ball Player May Collect His
800 Monthly Salary for
1912 From Boston.
VICTORY FOR FRATERNITY

Three OF the Ave Justices OF the APP
voted yesterday TO sustain the claim OF
Kurt II. Hageman. the pitcher for
merly with the Boston American League
team and now with the Chicago Ma
tlonal League club, against the Boston
Red Sox for six months salary at $500
a month during the season of 1912.
Hageman complained that he was
ordered TO report to the Denver club Of
the Western League at 5000 a month
when he could have signed with an In
ternational League club at $500 a month
Hageman refused to go to Denver and
reported at the Boston grounds through
out the season. He assigned his claim
10 the Baseball Players Fraternity,
which brought suit for his salary
through It's president, David l.. Fultz.
The suit was thrown out by the trial
Justice on the ground that before Hage-
man was ordered 10 Denver he had been
released by Boston to Jersey city, and
II he had a claim against any club IL
was against jersey City. The majority
of the court decides that Hugeman's
claim against Boston is just because the
olu loTIn Oh UdSetdll contract WnICn ne
signed was "coerCive," and so drafted
that II could be enforced and applied
arbitrarily and for this reason II should
be construed literally in favor Of the
player"
Unless the ruling iS reversed by the
Court OF Appeals. to which the case will
he taken, Hageman viii get judgment
for his pay The court also rules that
Hageman's assignment of his claim to
the fraternity for enforcement was valid
because the fraternity was organized to
protect the interest of the players, and
the assignment is in legal form.
The minority opinion, written by Jus
tlce Mclaughlin. says that while the
contract in question Is one sided and
drawn without much regard to the in
teIest of the player. It is still contract,
and persons competent to make con-
tracts can make such agreements as they
see 1T so long as the same are not OPP
posed To good morals. against public
policy or contrary to law"
The minority states that no matter
what the circumstances under which
liageman was surrendered by the Jersey
City club he has failed to establish a
contract enforcible under the rules Of
the National Commission.

Brewer Meqvberger Rushes In Where
Promoter Michigan Fails TO Land

Dave Newberger, the brewer who is
backing the new 135th Street A. c..
handed certified check yesterday to
his manager. This is to be used in an
effort to bring the Johnny Kilbane-Kid
Williams bout TO New York. Newberger
declared that he can seat 5 900 people in
his Madison avenue club and that he
intends to start off with williams and
Kilbane.
In passing II might interest Col. New
berger to know that Jack Michigan OF
Philadelphia already has bid $1,000 for
the fight for his National club 1t is
certain that Kilbane would favor a six
round bout. Also tho question of weight
has not been settled,
Jimmy Dunn. Kilbanes manager. has
delivered his ultmatum to Kid Williams
with regard to the weight zone hun
dred and twenty-five pounds at s o'clock
on the night OF the bout Is the best that
kilbane will make 1t is Kilbanes cham
pionship that is in danger not Williamss
and We don't intend TO give ourselves
any the worst of the bargain in this
proposed bout between champions. II
were TO challenge Freddie Welsh and
demand 1873 rlngside l probably would
get the horse laugh. Let 1t be 1879 at
S. or nothing doing"
Harry Pollok certainly is nursing
Freddie Wesh's title along with rare
caution. Harry confessed yesterday
that he had compelled the Akron pro-
moters to write into their agreement for
the Grlfnths-Welsh fight that under no
circumstances would Referee Hinkel be
allowed to award the bout to Grfiths
on a foul.
"Rtchie, the lucklest man that ever
lived, won his title on foul from VOL
CAST" said Pollok. II don't propose that
any one Is gon5 TO get Fred's laurels
that easy. Why, II would be a simple
matter for any one to drop to the floor
claiming foul and a crooked referee
could wish the title on him, Charley
Whites anxiety about getting the cham
pionship on n -four brought the thing
home to me I'll never lot Fred fight
unless that sort OF decision is barred
We wouldn't have minded winning the
title that way but you can bet your
boots we won't lose that way"

SAME FOOTBALL OFFICERS.
RuIes Committee Keeps Hail as
Chnirman-Few Code Changes.

The Football Rules Committee began
its annual meeting at the Bitmore last
night and at once embarked upon a dis
cussion OF a number of suggested
changes The discussion was conducted
behind closed doors and the meeting
adjourned about midnight. It will be
resumed this morning and is expected
TO last until afternoon. AS soon as II
Is over, complete statement OF the
work accomplished will be given out
The general impression last night
seemed to be that there would be no
change of radical nature, but that a
number OF minor points which came to
light during the 1914 season would be
taken up. Walter Camp of Yale is said
to be In favor Of leaving the rules Just
about as they are, but Percy Haughton
of Harvard and some Of the Western
members OF the committee have some
minor alterations which they would like
to see made.
Before beginning its discussion the
committee reelected its old officers; r..
X. Hall OF Dartmouth being chosen
chairman and Walter Camp, Yale, secre-
tary and editor The following mem
bers of the committee were present

that the most fun he ever had up there
was taking the boat back to New York
He claimed that he never had been
upset by the moving background, but
that. as the tournament always was fol-
lowed by the horse show, he felt like
a prize horse being led into the ring.
incidentally Hackett surprised every
one by stating that I'm his experience he
never had seen a championship singles
match because he always got away from
Newport as soon as possible. He told
about the Crescent Athletic Club-of
which both he and Charles NJ. Bull, Jr.,
leading spirit I'm the Newport faction,
are Misunderstanding him and Bull to
appear before the Crescent officers and
state their cases. Bull was on hand
with an eloquent speech, according to
Hackett. while he could not attend on
short notice and sent a letter OF apol-
ogy. He closed by saying that he got
the Crescent Club vote, much to the
amusement Of the crowd.
About 10 80 o'clock many OF the dele
gates had to catch trains. and as there
was no hope of the meeting coming TO
a close a motion was made to close
all arguments and let Behr sum up.
once Behr started to sum up the fight
became a free for all and every one
wanted to speak, but all were squelched
and the vote was taken. The excite
ment WAS so great that when the roll
was being called many of the voters
got all mixed up. George Peabody
Gardner was an instance. In voting his
proxy for the Providence club he voted
for Providence, and little later Behr
who had the proxy for the Princeton
University Association, when he heard
Princeton University called out. stood
up and shouted "Behr. Yale" instead
Of New York.
The crowd that attended the meeting
was the biggest that ever sat at one OF
its kind. In the afternoon the officers
and executive committee were reelected
Watson NJ. Washburn became a dele
gate at large He and Holcombe Ward
tied for the place with $50 votes each
and Ward withdrew in favor OF Wash
burn. u also was decided not to chal-
lenge for the Davis cup on account Of
the war and IL was announced just be-
fore the close Of the session that Ger
many's share of the Davis cup receipts
was s5S5.54. which is being held by
the United States Government at the
request of the German Lawn Tennis
Union. The net receipts for the inter-
national matches were stated officially
TO be Sl4,474. The evening session was
closed with the awarding of fixtures for
1915.
