CORNELL SHOULD WIN

Ithaca Athletes Seem Like Sure Win
 ners in Finals Today-stanford
 Shows Up We'll.
 the trials in the annual intercollegiate track and field championships which, were held here under the protacting walls of the Harvard Stadium ycs- terday, it is hard to sec how Cornell can fail to score less than 32 points in the finals tomorrow, provided Monkeys middle and long distance men run to form in the half-mile, one mile and two-mile events.
 Thirty-two points should win tls meet, but if CornelPs total Is held down to that number the Ithacans probably will not have much of margin on Leland Stanford, which looks to have 22 points cinched, and may add more if Wilson makes . good showing in the one-nnile event. Overton of Yale appeared a trifle stale yesterday. If the Eli middis~ lancer runs to form today, however. Yale may grab second place away from Stanford.
 The number of athletes qualified by the several colleges was as folows; Cornell, IS; Yale 15; Harvard, 8; Le- and Standford. 7; California, 2; aDrt- mouth, '; University of Pennsylvania 7; Princeton, T; Michigan, 6; Penn State, 4; Syracuse, 2; Bowdoin, 2: Rutgers, 1; Swarthmore, 1; and Mass. Institute of Technology, 1.
 It was the grand work of the aths 1n4n op nf ct stitution. Leland Stanford and the University of Southern California, that featured the competition this afternoon. It was left to Fred Mur- ray, the stalwart track captain of Stanford to uncork the classiest per- formance of the day. The wonderful athlete from the sunkissed slopes of the Rockies went over the fences In the first heat of the 12O-yard high hurdles in the great time of 15 sec onds flat.

Captain Eddie Anderson was tower of strength to his club, the for mer factory leaguer coming through with flying colors with an average of
 103.S. In bowling circles throughout the state Capt. Anderson is looked up
 on as one of the most graceful per formers with the ducks" seen in the cities where the league operated. During the winter, considerable dis cussion was heard of the respective ability of Anderson and Barbour of Southington, but match game on the local alleys settled any doubts that may have existed in the South ington boys minds. Joe Foote and Lantone played stellar games through out the season, not flashy cratic bowling, just steady pounding away at the pins securing marks around the century mark for averages. Not so bad either. Harold Bertini the boy with the cerise hirsute was also in evidence with some corking scores, winning games for the local lads by his brilliant work. Speaking about hirsute, we will not overlook the nice manner in which Willie Brennecke arranges his on the front part of his cranlum. The particular twist was the envy of all the boys on the alleys, but Will doesn't mind. Of you don't believe it is artistically arranged just glance at his photo)
 Two other young men who are de- serving of mention for their fine work are Tommy Blanchard and Jurgen. It Is in coming stars like these, that Manager Rogers pins his hopes of annexing the championship. Jurgen competing in nine games in the league, hit an average of 1928 while Blanchard in seven games rolled 96.2.

Lynn 7, Lowell 6.

Lynn, May 27.-After getting a four run lead in the first inning Lynn was given a hard battle by Lowell yesterday and did not win until the ninth. The score was 7 to t. Zieser was relieved by Lohman in the ninth after the Lowell pitcher had passed the first man up. Two singles followed and then Lohman forced in a run by passing the next man. In the fifth inning Catcher Carroll of Lynn was injured when Stimson slid into the plate. The score:

Although the local representatives in the Inter-City Bowling league did not win the championship, they &C., quilted themselves in manner that is highly satisfactory to the manage ment, and also to the followers of the but recent splendid spurt has placed them in position that is not to be despised. The outlook for next season presents a very satisfactory aspect, and by the time the season of 1917 is ended, the boys are hopeful that the ''old rag" will be safely tucked away on the walls of the Church street al- 1eys.
 The difficulties that confront a team manager were many with G. c. Rog- CTS, many of the stars finding it inn possible to be on hand on evenings when important matches were sched- uled, but dispite this handicap, he kept plugging away, and instead of hav- ing a handful of men, it is expected that next season the Aetna alleys will be represented by at least twelve men that will be capable of putting up game that will warrant their remain ing at the head of the circuit from the beginning to the end. Manager Rog- CTS is certainly entitled to much cred it for the fine showing the boys have made, for when things looked bad for them, he was usually found on hand with the cheery word that started spurts that many times resulted in a victory for the home lane boys. MT. Rogers fine work was also a prime factor in keeping the boys in the race up to the final two weeks his av- craze of 1O3.7 evincing the brand of bowling he exhibited.

 Eddie Plank pitched in a world series in 1905 and 1914-9 years apart. This will stand as a record unless Christy Mathewson gets a shot at the world series of 1916. Eleven years between world series pitching will be a mark to blaze away at for a numbe of f1eeting decades.
