Never was there glimmer of a show for the visitors and they were lucky to escape without . greater defeat In both team work and In skoting the Yale seven showed great improve ment and although the ice was pretty Time and time again when Yale pos sessed the puck the whole skirmish line could carry the rubber the length of the rink without losing 1t, and inci- nent in shooting and passing. On the other hand the visitors lacked u fundamental necessity of knowing how to skate and the crowd was much amused by the hard Hops the men took.
 The M L T. players shooting was aI- so bad and the forwards could never retain the elusive rubber because of their inability to pass to one another without having a Blue man jump n and race down the rink with it. The 1ighZess of the Bay State aggrega- tion also had part in the downfall
 
 collide the Red and Grey would alwaA sink to the ice.
 Armour was indisputably the star of the game. He made four of Yale's points and time and again he would bring the rubber to a position from which someone else could drive it past the visiting goal tender. His sfots and dashes were perfect and there Was no fear of an NJ. l. T. offensive entering the Yale sector when it's big center was in the fray. Laughlin, last years freshman star, also played well and with his peculiar way of squatting as he skates he invariably beat the en- tire field in race for the puck. Hoi- comb York. who has performed so we'll all during the season had com parativeiy easy night. having only sev- en drives made at him, six of WI ich he turned aside.
 On the other hand for the Red and Gray, Lowenfard at goal stopped g shots and let just eicht by him. Tutein and Clark also did well for the visitors.
 The game started with a zest ani it was only after 1.45 minutes that Gould drove home the first score for Yale. In a short time Armour repeated the act and Clark then made the only score of the game for the Tech. The Yale then bombarded the visitors and Laughl;n. Gould and Armour each made a ta,'y. leaving Yale ahead. to 1. at the erd of the half
 In the second half Yale could not score so easily but nevertheless Ar mour scored twice and Gould once be- fore the final bell.

ST. LOUIS IS TO
 SAIL AT NOON TODAY Whether She Will be Conveyed Has Not Been Decided

New York, Feb. 4.-No decision had thorities. late today as to whether a convoy should be provided for the American line steamship St. Louis, scheduled to sail from this port at noon tomorrow for Liverpool. The question is still being considered in Washington, it was learned.
 Officials of the company announced that they were waiting for advice from the state department and that the liner would be held at her pier until the government notified them what it's course in the matter would be.
 International Mercantile Marine, the owners of the American line, an nounced at 10 o'clock that the steam ship Philadelphia, which passed Fast net at Il o'clock last night, was ex- pected to arrive at Liverpool tomor- row morning. The vessel is proceed ing slowly, he said, because of a broken propeller. The last wireless message received from, the PhiIadel- phia's commander was the one last night which told of her passing Fast net. MT. Franklin said he expected no further word from the Philadel- phia until she docked at Liverpool as it was not customary to send out wireless messages while passing through the war zone around the Brit ish Isles. He declared emphatically that he would be informed at once if disaster befell the vessel
 The Finland is due at Liverpool at 5 o'clock tomorrow morning and the St. Paul is due at this port at any time now.

CREWS DETAINED ABOARD
 ALL GERMAN SHIPS
Guard of Customs Officials About the
 Piers Doubled.

New York, Feb. 4-Oficers and crews of the 25 German ships which have been self detained here since the outbreak of the European war were ordered late today to remain on board their vessels. At the same time the guard of customs officials about the piers virtually was doubled, while po- lice were on hand to keep visitors at a distance from the approaches to the docks.
 Reports that the government author Ities contemplated seizing the German ships, the total tonnage of which is 261, ,000, were denied tonight by Dudley Field Malone, collector of the port, as absolutely false" MT. Malone issued the following statement from Hoboken, where most of the North German Lloyd and Hamburg-American steam ships afe docked:
 'I have come here in accordance with orders from the treasury depart ment at Washington to lend assistance to and cooperate with the department of immigration in passing upon status of the officers and crews of all self detained ships in the port of New York I am here for no other purpose. In order that there may be cooperation, have been in consultation with the Lloyd and Hamburg-American Steam ship companies"
 The collector asserted that the off, cers and crews of the German vessels ed,'' but that they were simply re- quested' to remain on their ships. He refused to discuss the instructions he had received from the treasury de- pertinent, or the plan of procedure to be pursued by the department of i'm migration. It was learned, however. that MT. Malone was cordially re- ceived" by the representatives of the two German steamship lines with wrom he conferred concerning his or ders from Washington.

YALE PICKED A WINNER
ship Although Princeton Leads Eli Meets Princeton Tuesday.

The makeup of the Yale team will be as usual with Kinney and Olsen, forwards; Garfield, center, and Cap tain Taft and Mallon, guards. As result of a five days rest, the team is playing faster basketball than at any previous time this season aid Coach Tommers is very optimistic in his opinion of the teams chances for a championship.
 Kinney, highest scorer in the league last year. is again making a bid for the honorS and stands second to Ort- ner of Cornell who has figured in ono more game than Kinney. He is Yale's best man on the offense and the bulk of the scoring depends on him.
 sMallon, all-colegiate guard, is tied with Kinney in number of field goals scored. His play. both on the offense and defense, has been little shore of sensational, and he is without doubt the best a1l-round guard in the league.
 Captain Taft's ability as a leader has been a big factor in the teams success, and his brilliant floor game has to a great extent been responsible for the large scores which the team has run up in almost every game. Garfield, at center invariably gets the jump on his opponent and fits in well with the teamwork of the five. Olsen, KinneE's running mate, has improved

ENGINES OF KRoNPRINZESsIN
 HAVE BEEN TEMPERED WITH
Since They Were Formally Inspected
 Last Friday.

Boston. Feb. 4.-Federal inspectors at work in the engine room of the North German Lloyd liner Kronprin- zessin Cecilie, which was taken pos session of in civil proceedings by United States Marshal John J. Mitchall yesterday, reported today that the ships machinery had been tampered with since it had been formally in- spected last Friday. Nine valves and all the brass plates on the manifold box indicating the character and posi- tion of steam and water pipes had been removed. While the damage, in itself, appeared superficial, the inspec- tors said, it would have been serious in the event of a sudden thrush of water With the plates missing it would have been impossible to deter mine in time to save the ship what valves to open and what to shut. In place of the plates removed were chaIked figures which were unintelligf-
 Soon after the first discovery that all was not right with the engines, member of the crew was found asleep on board although it had been sup posed that all had been taken off last night This man was sent to join his shipmates, who are lodged at the inn migration station
 The Cecilie's officers and crew were removed yesterday by the marshal upon notice being given by the Ma tiorial City bank and the Guarantee Trust company of New York that they would hold him liable for any damage to the ship to the extent Of their claims, which aggregate $2,500, ,00o-

With one more game to play in the first lap of the Intercollegiate Bas- ketbaIl championship race. Yale is still the favorite over the other teams in the league.
 Although Princeton now leads the league by half a game over Yale and Pennsylvania, who are tied for second place, she has played one more game than either of those teams and has the hardest part of her schedule yet to play. Her defeat of Yale by one point on Tuesday of last week was due to a last minute rally after Yale had been in the lead throughout the game Pennsylvania. Yale's other ri val for the championship honors. was beaten last week by Cornell the tail- enders of the league. This defeat was decisive and was Cornel's first league game.
 From the other teams in the league Yale has little to fear. With the rest which Coach sTommers gave the team last week, theih condition should be much improved when they line up against Princeton here next Tuesday. It is the annual Prom game, but it does not count at a league contest. As the winner of this game will be considered generally as the favorite for the league championship, it will be an especially important and inter esting affair.
