TENNIS STARS PLAY
COURT GAME ON ICE

Miss Marie Wagner, New York State
lawn tennis champion among the wom-
en-, was one of those who watched the
first practice match of "ice tennis" in
this city yesterday afternoon at the
1Slst Street Ice Palace. After II was
over she declared she was going 10 try
it out on the ice courts Of the Hamil-
ton Grange Lawn Tennis Club, Of which
she is member.
Frederick B. Alexander, Dean Mathey,
Francis T. Hunter and 7. R. Pell, all
ranking players, were those who took
part. playing doubles. At first regu-
lar squash bail was used, but this
proved too fast on the ice, so an ordi-
nary tennis ball was substituted. The
new game was remarkably fast, the
players following in like a shot on SER
vice, volleying from all over the court
and running back" after lobs as
though they we're playing on turf.
VI. Il. Greenebaum, the manager, has
been asked to arrange An "ice tennis"
tournament in the near future. with a
cup placed in competition. He prob
ably will arrange to hold such an affair
this winter. Tomorrow night Alexan-
der, Pell. Hunter and Mathey will play
an exhibition doubles match at the
rink, beginning at o'clock.

RUSH REMAINS
IN CHARGE OF
TIGER ELEVENS
PrincetOn'S Head Football Coach
Granted One More Year
Of Grace
By BRIGGS

Princeton, y. j., Dec. l9.-John H..
Rush, head coach OF the Princeton
football teams, will guide the destinies
of the Tigers on the gridiron during
the season of 1917. This was an
nounced by the athletic council here
to-day 1t will be Rush's third year as
head coach AZ Princeton.
There had been much talk since the
close of the football season that an
other man would be in charge Of foot
ball at Princeton in 1917. Rush's fail
ure to win either the Harvard or Yale
games, although Princeton had what
was conceded 10 De the strongest team,
was disappointing to Princeton men.
II was said by some that his system
was az fault.
1t was the sense of those in author
ity, however, that Rush had built upon
sound lines, and that he deserved a..
least another year with pen who had
started football under him.

DE ORC LEADS MOORE
IN MATCH FOR TITLE

Alfredo de Orc, the Cuban wizard,
defeated champion George Moore in
the first block OF three consecutive
nights play for the worlds champion
ship at three-cushion carrom billiards.
In ninety-fvc innings the challenger
completed his 50th point. which ended
the opening nights play. In ninety
four innings the champion was able 70
gather only SO points. This match is
being contested at John Doyle's Forty
second Street parlor.
De ORC outplayed the champion last
night. He had a high run OF 6, made
IN the iifty-frst inning. as opposed 10
3 for Moore, shown in his twenty
fourth inning.
SO far as the spectacular goes, last
nights Introductory play was nothing
unusual. De Orc played safety first
all the way. Moore took many chances
at the start; he played wide open
game. Perhaps for that reason the
Cuban was able TO take a commanding
lead quickly. Moore frightened his game
toward the end and used copious oil,
but he resorted 10 safety measures too
late.

Billy Miskc. the st. Paul light heavy

mastery over Jack Dillon, of Indiana
polls, in ten thrilling rounds at the
Broadway Sporting Club, Brooklyn,
last night The ST. Paul boxer forced
the issue during the greater part of
the bout, paying particular attention
TO Dillons stomach. At times Dillon
would lash out with rights and lefts
TO the head. but at infghting Miske
proved the more clever. The bout was
marked by a great number Of siugging
bees, Dillon usually being the one in
clincd 10 stop
In the first round Dillon played 10
the stomach and sent his right 10
Miskc's jaw several times. Miske rail-
lied toward the end but lost the round
by slight margin. Miske earned the
cond by hard rights toward the close,
but the blows were TOO high. In the
third Mske landed a volley Of rights
and lefts on Dillon's jaw and never let
up as the Hoosier backed away. Miske
drove home terrific rights under the
heart Dillon went to his corner with
a bad eye.
Through tho fourth round Miske in
creased his lead. Miske's right carried
much power as il found billions face
and stomach and forced him 10 cover.
Dillon took the fifth. lie caught
Miske with several good rights TO the
jaw.
The sixth was even. Dillon won the
seventh by his aggressiveness. Jack

nents jaw. The eighth was featured
by toe-to-toe smuggling. Dillon was
strong; Miske's punches seemed 70 lack

Dillon's blows were going around
Miske's neck in the ninth, but he got
several hard blows into the face. Miske
was paying particular attention TO his
opponents ribs. In the tenth Dillon

There were several sensational
sprints for prizes offered by specta

with the field well strung out, put.
just when it looked as If the trailers
would lose a lap, the leaders let down
IN their mad pace.
Old Bobby Walthour jumped the
field about 8 o'clock. and swept into
thirty-yard lead before the field led
by George Cameron, set sail and drew
him back after three-lsp chase.
When the sprinting for points be
gan Mcnamara and Goullet were again
the outstanding figures. as was the
case on Monday night. Reggie won
the first easily enough, with Goullet
back in fifth place. In the third test
of speed the two great Australians
worked their way to the front three
laps from home.
At the bell lap Goullet set ter
rife pace, with Mcnamara at his rear
wheel. Thus they tore around the
last lap, but, as they rounded the
turn to the homestretch, Mac fairly
lifted his wheel over the line. and
won by inches. Goullet got his re-
venge later. when he and Mcnamara
engaged in another thrilling duel in
the fifth sprint All had the jump
this time and Just flashed over the
line in time 10 win. The Garden rose
in tribute when Walthour measured
speed with the Australians in this
sprint, and finished just behind Nc
Nanara. in third place
The second day is said to be the
hardest on the riders, and so il seemed
yesterday, for from early in the morn
ing until the session of point spirits
began at $3.50 o'clock in the evening,
the field plodded around tho big saucer
AZ an average Of about twenty miles
an hour, falling steadily behind the
record set in 1914

and look 10 be the freshest men in tho
race. Hard Boiled Eggs" work has
been disappointment so far, and he

that the Swiss is conserving all his

the line ahead OF the field four times.
In each sprint Mac was opposed by Al

rider in the race. Four times he de-
feated his great rival, and once Goullet
proved the master.
Between them the teams OF Ne
Namara and Spears and Goullet and

times out OF ten. BY their work OF the
last two nights Mac and Spears have
demonstrated that. barring accidents,
they will give Goullet and Grenda a
terrific battle for the honors on Satur-
day night. They are literally riding
themselves into form.
