WORST DEFEAT EVER
 FOR COLUMBIA FIVE
New Workers Overwhelmed By Yale, In Their Last Game of
 League Season.

New Haven, March 9.-Columbia's basketball team last night suffered the worst defeat in the seventeen years history of that sport at the New York institution. The Columbia five was overwhelmed by the Yale team by a score of 50 to 10, in the final Inter- collegiate League contest for both com binations.
 Columbia was beaten by a compara- lively worse score by Yale in the first year of the league, during the 1901- 1902 season, when the Eli machine, under Al Sharpe, triumphed by 4S to 3. During that same season Columbia was beaten by Princeton by 45 to 15. Since then those scores have not been approached, at Columbia's expense. Columbia scored only one point in the second half last night, Captain Dwyer, playing his last game for the Blue and White caged a goal from the foul line.
 Kinney, the Yale left forward, scored 24 points for his team and took first place in number of points scored in league games this season from Captain McNichol of Pennsylvania. The lineup.
