PRINCET0N'S
 ERRORS GIVE
 HARVARD GAME

Princeton, N. J., May 26.-Princeton presented Harvard with a baseball game yesterday the Crimson winning the first of the Yale Harvard Prince ton championship series by 4 ito 2, thanks to the Tigers generosity. All of Harvards s runs were unearmed4 Kel- leher's wild throw in the tenth was the source of Harvard's last two tal- lies. The Harvard infield was re- ising Princeton rallies by fast double plays. Abbott was the star of the Crimson defense, his play around sec ond base getting Mahan out of trouble several times
 Deyo's three bases on heIls. together with a hit, gave Harvard it's run in the first. His wild throw of Frye's bounder in the sixth let Hardwick score from third. Douglass two sim gles meanwhile. had scored as many runs for Princeton.
 Princeton threatened to break the tie in the ninth. when Captain Greene reached second base. Douglas. how ever, was unable to deliver a third hit, and the game went into extra Innings. Nash, leading off for Harvard in the tenth, hit safely, and was sacrificed to second. Harte flied out but Hardwick got a scratch single along the third base line. Hardwiclx started for sec ond and KeI1eher threw wild in the ef- fort to catch him, Nash scoring. When HardWich headed for third, Gill let Laws throw get past him, and the Harvard captain scored With two out in the Princeton half of the tenth. Deyo and Hanks. singled, but Abbott stopped the rally by making a bril- liant play on SeulIys hard-hit ground CT between first and second.

MIKE GIBBONS TO
 TACKLE HOUCK IN
 NEW YORK TONIGHT

New York, May 26.Mfke Gibbons and Leo Houck will be the headliner at the St. Nicholas A. c. tonight, the two 1niddleweights meeting for the first time: They have agreed to weigh in at 158 pounds at the ringside.
 Gibbons says he will take no chances with the clever and heavy hitting lad from Lancaster, who holds popular decisions over George Chip, Jack Dillon. Eddie MaGoorty and Young Ahearn.
 Houck has been fighting regularly Of late. which will be to his advan- tage, while Gibbons has been praetf- cally out of the game since meeting Jimmy Clabby two months ago. Houck has two good hands, is clever and az gressive and possesses a. perfect de- fense.
 His plan of battle will be to go in for a Knockout from the first bell. fig uring his chances of winning much better than if he tried to outpoint the St. Paul wonder. Gibbons must make good in this bout to cineh his match with Gunboat Smith next month.

PRINCETON MAKES
 PROT EST ON HANES,
 OF YALE BALL TEAM

New Haven, May 26--Announcement was made last night that the Prince ton baseball management has entered an informal protest against the play ing of Johnny Hanes, YaIe's star right fielder, in the series which is near at hand Hanes is an academic senior and the present season marks his sec ond as member of the Yale's nine.
 While the Yale officials have de- clined to make the details of the pro- test public at this time, 1t is under stood, unof1cia1ly, that Princeton claims Hanes played on the University of North Carolina team before coming to Yale.
 It is expected that the matter will be amicably settled before the game with the Tigers here on Saturday,.
 It is said that Yale admits Hanes played with the southern university. He played his first year there as a substitute and the sec nd season as a, regular. If his playing as a substi- tute is construed to constitute a years work on a varsity nine it is said that he would probably be debarred from playing against both Princeton and Harvard under the terms Of the three. year rule agreement.
 Hanes was largely responsible for Ya1e's victory over Harvard in the de- ciding rarne last year when he knock ed a home run with the bases full IT, the deciding Princeton game he got a II three of fYa1es hits against Pitcher Deyo.
 Should Hanes be declared ineligible, the probabilities are that Rhett. one of the first string substitutes, will play right field in the important series soon to be staged. The possible loss of Hanes will be a sad blow to~Ya1e,a chances of winning the cham which at this stage of the game an- pear none too bright

TESREAU AND MARQUARD ARE
 CLOUTED HARD

New York, May 26-Jef Tesreaus after pitching great ball for six inn ings against St. Louis at the Polo Grounds, yesterday. wiIted in the sew enth stanza and Miller Huggina' tri5e of invaders celebrated their first ap- pearance of the 1915 campaign in this city by soundIy trbuncing the Giants by II to 5.
 The seventh session was 8 very profitable one for the boys from Missouri and also a terrible night mare for the crippled and much abused Giants who are trying their mightiest to lift themselves out of the cellar apartment of the National league.
 Seven Cardinals paraded over the home plate in the disastrous inning at the expense of Tesreau and Rube Marquard, who supplanted Tesreau after three singles, a double and a. free gift to the initial sack had been corralled off him. The Cards were indiscrin1inate in their heavy on@ s1aught and they treated the offerings of the Rube in a most shameful manner.
 Marquard was, an unhappy young gent when he managed to retire .ths visitors. He walked to the bench with his head hung low, while the petty gamblers who sit behind third base and bet against the Giants re- peatedly cheered loudly and jeshed the Giants, for their poor playing.

ANDY COAKLEY IN BAD AT COLUMBIA.
 FRICTION IN TEAM

New York, May. 2e-Much specuz lation and comment has been caused recently among Columbia men by che continued absence of Captain IO'Neale from the B1ue~and White baseball team. Since the Harvard game of some weeks ago he has not repre- sented Columbia, on the diamond in any capacity and it has been openly stated that the reason N rg this was because there has been friction bee tween O'Neale and Andy Coakleys the coach Starting with good prospects the team has been going badly of late, and this is attributed to the difncultg- which has Kept o'Nea1e from play ing.
 Smith has been the best pitcher that the Blue and White lad ito rely. on this season. but the death of his father took him out Of the game at a critical stage of the season. OsNeale did well a year ago under the t1telage Of Billy Lush. and # he had played in the remaining games 1t is believed Columbia would have faped better.
