BARTELMES BEATEN
AGAIN BY KILLEEN

Eddie KfIeen last night showed that
he was the master of Charlie Bartelmes
at the pocket billiard game. when he
again defeated Charlie in the District
pocket billiard championship tournament
OF 100 to 81
This was the plsy-off of the much dis
puted game that was protested by Bar
telmes a few days ago In that game IL
was claimed by Bartelmes that Referee
Walter Wallace had pulled a bone" and
after many disputes on the part Of both
players IL was finally agreed to play the
game ever.
Killeen displayed the same steady
nerve that brought him through a winner
OF the title three years ago, and over
came large handicap which Bsrtelmes
had on him shortly after the hallway
mark lad been reached. Bartelmes at
one time had a twenty-six point lead on
killeen, the score at this period OF the
contest reading. Bartelmes. -: KilIeen
&. but Eddie played an uphill game and
entered the final frame six balls behind
his opponent
In the last frame Bartelmes needed
I five balls and Killeen eleven. and the last
named made run OF this number for the
game. The highest runs Of the evening"
were thirteen, made by each player.
killeen and Walter Wallace. who are
tied for first honors. will play the final
game on Monday evening. George King
refereed the contest last night, while
Rodrick Thomas and Walter Plat acted
as scorers.

WILL NOT ISSUE BULLETIN.
Tener Has strike Measure to tn hwnrt
PIayer.' FRATERNITY

New York, Feb. 9.-It developed yester-
day afternoon that John X. Tener pres
ident Of the National League had issued
an order TO John Heydler. his secretary.
that in the future no more bulletins be
sent out revealing the names OF the play
ers who have signed new contracts for
the coming season.
This is more or less Of a strike meas
ure, and will undoubtedly thwart Dave
Fultz's attempts to keep his fraternity
members from allying themselves with
the various club owners in the two
major leagues. Five signed contracts
have been received at the National
League headquarters in the last three
days for approval but the names OF the
players are being kept guarded by both
the club owners and President Tener
-Four Of these players are members OF
Western clubs and the other one either
draws his salary from the Boston
Braves or the Phillies.
President Tener declined to discuss the
matter yesterday. He stated that he
would have nothing more to say about
the strike or Baseball Players Fraternity
for some time to come
His action OF ordering the names OF the
players signing withheld is following the
example set by the American League I.
few weeks ago.

CENTRAL FISH" ARE
BEATEN IN DUAL MEET
Baltimore City College Swimmers De,
feat Mount Pleasant Athletes
81 to -.

The Baltimore City College sent a we'll
balanced swimming team to this city last
night that had very little trouble in cap
turing the dual meet with the Central
High School athletes in the tanks of the
Mount Pleasant School by count of
81 to %.
The Blue and White .'humas fish, were
outclassed for the opening race, which
was the relay. until the 50O-yard swim, as
Leech was the only one to capture a
first place for the boys on the hill, this
coming in the Elunge for distance.
-Four of the visiting athletes captured
As points of the 81 gathered by the Balti-
more team. Lamberth Yourex. well
known in South Atlantic ong-distance
swimming, contributing IA of these points.
Cromwell, his teammate. followed with 13,
Kennedy 10 and Slingluff s. The first
three swimmers each captured two first
positions, while Yourex and Cromwell
each scored second place. and the last
named finishing third in the ffty-yard
back stroke.
Yourex scored in the 22O-yard swim and
the 500-yard swim. The 50O-yard swim
was easily the feature of the program, as
1oureN allowed Call of the Central team,
TO set the race over 400 yards OF the dis
tance. when he opened up a sprint which
outdistanced his rival.
The Central relay team was beaten by
ihCHts IN tne relay, ana although Coach
Brunner's athletes were beaten their per-
formance was better than had been ex-
pected, as the City College crew is made
up of veteran aquatic athletes The re-

tech LANDS VICTORY
over CENTRAL QUINT
Manual Trainers Have Good Grip on
High\School Title.

In what will most likely prove the de-
Gliding game in the High School Basket
oall League is that Technical defeated
Central yesterday in the "Y" sym in q
fast and exciting contest, which made
the Manual Trainers extend themselves
TO the utmost to come out on the long
end of the score, % TO H.
This game gives Tech almost a clear
field to the end of the series, as they
have one more contest which should not
prove a very hard task for them to win,
In which case they will have the top
honors in the league This is the first
year that Technical has entered a quint
IN the indoor game, and 1t is some feat
TO come out on top in the first year
central and Tech showed some of the
best guarding and playing the man with
the ball seen in the series thus far,
and a little better shooting for the bas-
ket on the part of the Central forwards
might have made a difference in the re-
suit. Time and again they would work
the ball down to the basket only to loose
IL when they missed a shot for the bas-
ket. Tech excelled in passing the ball,
ana when II was in such a position to
shoot basket the man was there ready
TO put the ball in the cage.
White was the most successful man at
handling the ball for CentraF and he
made several long shots for the basket
nut IN every instance missed by inches.
Catlin, of Tech made one of the longest
shots of the day. when he Gagged the ball
from the side OF the court, near the
middle Of the floor. De lie Verne and
White each caged three baskets from the
floor. while Catlin had two to this credit,
IN shooting baskets from the foul mark
Tabbs had a margin on Solomon. as, the
latter only put in two of his eleven at
tempts, while Tabbs Gagged nine of hi.
sixteen attempts
The first half found the two quints
lled with 10 all and it was a question If
Tech would be able to keep up its WORK
guarding to prevent Central from scor-
ing more points
Tech came back in the second half
with plenty of pep" and PLAYED Central
to- standstill, scoring four baskets tu
Centrals three and free tosses, while
Central scored l. Tech had the ball in its
own end of the floor most of the last
period and was prevented from running
up more points by the superior work OF
the Central guards.
Central missed the services Of DAILY
as he is more used to the style of play
used by Central and his shooting of baskets
has been a big factor in his teams scor-
ing. Technical played better basketball
in the second half and the team was In
all the plays covering up the men
dribbing the ball
Western defeated Eastern in the night
cap game fby IS to Is. Western showed
the better style of play and covered the
man with the ball better than the boys
from Capitol Hill.
At the end of the first half Western
mad the edge of the score, which STOOD
2 to 3. Wetern scored 10 point during
the second half. while the Light Blue
and White Quint scored the same num-
Der of point. but wa not able to over
come the lead that the qutnt from across
