In Squash Tilt
Steadiness and Phenomenal

Steadiness and phenomenal gets

the young Harvard Club player, TO de-
feat Armin W. Riley, Of the Squash
Club, in the final round match of tho
fall scratch tourney of the National
Squash Tennis Association, played az
the Squash Club yesterday. The match
was a more closely contested affair
than the scores Of l5-1s, 1916, l5-9,
i5-l2 indicate.
Hyde recovered brilliantly after q
slow beginning, and il was his crafty
sll-around game and GOODNESS in tn,
pinches that gave him victory. His
change Of pace and returns 20 the back
corners for kills" bothered Riley.
Riley Rallies in Time
After gaining q big lead in the opens
ing game, Hyde smashed with all his
strength, in gradually closing the gap,
TO set the game at l3-all. However,
Riley soon found himself, and with low
"kills" into the front wall corners gath.
cred the necessary five aces in row.
Hyde showed his best form in tho
Second and third games, when he car
ried the fight to his rival His gets
Of Riley's low returns were spectacu-
lar. while he occasionally resorted 80
front wall smashes. Riley played
back wall game 20 intercept Hyde's
corner shots, but without success.
The fourth game was an open tusslo
until the count was II aces all. Then
the breaks fell in favor of Hyde, who
gathered his three points when Riley
failed 10 scoop the ball out of the back
corners.
kinselIa Wins Match
Following the match the spectators
watched an exhibition between Walter
A. Kinsella. the American professional
champion, and James Mullins, Of tho
Racquet and Tennis Club, for the BEN
eft of the Red Cross. Mullins had an
s-point handicap in each game, but was
defeated by a score OF 3-lb, l5-l2,
l8-15.
Armin ". Riley, president of tho
National Squash Tennis Association,
announced yesterday that the execu-
tive committee of the association hal
finally voted TO conduct the annual

Boxing News and Notes
BY FRED HAWTHORNE.

There's a guy what's choking him
self TO death wants you on the phone.
He says there's somethin' wrong with
his eskutchin an that you put a blot
on it or somethin', and he wants to
know if you will please coms an take
it Off. He talks like he's all shot to
ri eces an was gargling his pipes with
no; water and red pepper. The guy
tells me his names Dunn and that you
and he know each other. You know
the old stuff"
Major Mite, the newest Office boy,
told us all this startling information
out Of the extreme southwest corner Of
his mouth last night as he escorted US
10 the telephone booth and closed the
door. leaving US alone with our "wiry"
visitor. Mastering our emotion with
an audible effort, we plunged into the
thick of the verbal bsrrage that poured
from the deadly Dunn guns.
THAT was the most unkindest cut OF
all that you ran in your column on
Tuesday. about the unfortunate misun-
Outstanding between the officials of the
broadway Sporting Club. Of Brooklyn,
and the Police Department Of the City
OF New York. 1t is true that our opin-
ions on the legal aspects of the case are
not aligned in a harmonious symphony,
that the police and ourselves are not
attuned 20 the same sweet understand
ing OF the complicated situation; but,

Broadway Sporting Club with that Of

Then Duke puts his shoulder to the

And Mr.. Lee, the janitor, says:
"You hadn't oughta block the door

Then Duke sees me, and he says:

Proable Lineup

mated by DR.. Sharpe as the gentleman
who will fortify Cornell's ends. Know
ing neither, IL is hard to say whether
they are equal TO the task of spilllng
PENIS end-winding offensive as the
ends of Michigan, Dartmouth and PITT
did IL they do Penn will win only by
q respectable score, not an outrageous
enc. II they don't Berry and Bell Will
step away to some long runs, which:
sandwiched with the line plunges OF
Joey Straus and HOBBY Light, will
boost the Penn total toward the moon.
Cornell's chance for an honest cheer
to-day is almost directly in proportion
to the strength of her ends.
Cornelfe offensive has been such a
bloomer throughout the season that 1t
would be 2resuming too much TO say
il could break through defensive
that stopped Pitt, Michigan and Dart
mouth. The Ithacans will be on the
defensive three-quarters Of the time.
And we trust forthe sake OF an edl-
flying spectacle that that defensive
will assay a greater quantity OF steel
than it did against Michigan at Ann
Arbor.
Flashes of Good Football
A victory of Penn State over Pitts
burgh would be almost but not quite
so surprising as Cornell triumph:
Penn State has shown some flashes OF
good football, notably against Dart
mouth and Washington and Jefferson.
Though losing to each Of these teams
the margin was slight, and the Penn
Staters played consistently on both Of
fence and defence.
Pitt has been idle for ten days, has
been generally assigned the Eastern
championship laurels, and there is
chance that the long loaf and the re-
action that follows the winning OF q
championship might make them a SOFT
er proposition to-day than they have
been at any time this season.
But team Of Pitts class and ex-
perience will probably have the ability
to pull itself together even should an
early tide set against it. No Pitt fan
is worrying over Mr.. Warmers ability
to take care of himself to-day. Such
an unbroken streak of victories is too
precious a thing TO lose through care

Fordham Team
Faces Eleven
OF Camp Upton

Fordham plays the National Army
eleven from Camp Upton this afternoon
in a game that should prove a fitting
close TO the Maroon's war" sensoa-
The soldiers showed considerable
power last Saturday in holding Camp
Devens to a lone touchdown, and, with
this experience tucked away they should
give the Bronxmen no end of trouble.
Frank Click, the old Princeton player,
has been coaching the Camp Upton
team.
The Maroon team skldded through a
signal drill yesterday on the slippery
eridiron. Frank Frisch, the Maroon
star, who has not played since tho
Georgetown game, was in the lineup,
and will probably play to-day, especial
ly if Bill Erwig is u--Sble 70 enter the
fray. Bill twisted tbs ankle last Sat-
yrday.
As all the soldiers who could be-
spared are enjoying a holiday in New
York to-day, a big crowd of young men
in khaki should witness to-day's game.
The contest will start at $3.50 p. m.

were a success, and to make this clean
I'D Folwell didn't call upon his frs,
team, feeling we'll satisfied that his
scrubs and second varsity were capable
of doing the job.
Snowploughs, scrapers and fifty
shovels cleared away the white cover
ing. The scrubs and second varsity
didn't get their signals crossed once,
though shovels often came together.
Folwell will start the game with the
same men that were in the lineup
against Michigan. The election for cap
tain will take place Immediately after
the game, and there are two candidates.
One is HOBBY Light, one of the greatest
defensive backs Penn has had in many
years, and the other is Bert Bell, the
flashy little quarterback.
ITHACA, n. Y, Nov. 28.-Just be-
fore the Cornell football squad started

gave out his lineup for to-morrow's
game. He said he would start Eisen-
brandt and Colvin as ends, Harris and
