points, they being Kinney of Yale. Nc
Nlchol of Penn and Haas of Prince
ton. 1t is interesting to note. too, in
this connection that Kinney played a
guard position. Kinney did the greater
part of his scoring late in the season,
indicating that opposing forwards did
cover as they should. All three of the
leaders in scoring won places on the
collegiate team. The other two
men picked were Martin of Penn, for
forward, and Sutterby of Cornell, for
center.

WINS DUEL WITH SUBMARINE
British Skipper Relates Fight With Undersea Vessel in Which U-BOat
 Was Hit and Sunk.

Baltimore. Aug. 4.-Captain David Thomson, master of the British steamship Strathness, which arrived here today from Mediterranean ports, told of an engagement which he de- dared his vessel had with a German submarine on July 15, in which the subm ersible was sunk.
 Two gunners from the British navy, who were in charge of a six pound gun mounted on the after deck of the Strathness for defense purposes, sank the submarine, according to Captain Thompson, when a ball struck it amid ships, causing an explosion. He said the underwater boat dived suddenly and was not seen again.
 While the Strathness was struck several times, once, according to Captain Thomson, by a torpedo, no great damage was done, and the freighter escaped with several dented Hates and portions of her super structure demolished.
