The Franco-American sweep be-
tween the Aisne, and the Marne
has already greatly improved
the general war situation. The
Germans are pouring in their
reserves. which had been held
back for the supreme effort.
Half the campaigning season
or the year, has passed. The
threat toward Epernay has been
warded off. Villers- Cotterets
forest has been cleared of the
enemy. The German divisions
south of the Marine are In a
perilous position. The most i'm
portant phase. however, Is that
the allies have taken the initia-
tive.
During the last 80 hours the
Germans m reported to haze
brought up $4,000 OF their pre-
cious reserves. In the same
period, the French and Ameri-
cans have captured more than
1000 machine guns.

De Orc Retains
Three-Cushion
Billiard Title
Champion Defeats Otis in
Match at Havana by
One-Point Margin

HAVANA. Jan. 13.-Alfredo de Orc,
three-cushion billiard champion OF The
world, idol of the Cuban people and en-
joying life pension from the Cuban
government because of his skill with
the cue, retained the championship last
night by capturing the last Of a series
Of three games against Chesbrougn S.
Otis, of Brooklyn, challenger for the
title. The match was won by the mar
row margin of l point.
With the total score standing 149 20
140, de Orc proposed an extension of
the game, but this was not acceptable
to the spectators, and Otis, with the
worries in position for an easy shot Of
five cushions, attempted instead a
three-cushion play. that, according to
the experts, was virtually impossible.
Otis missed the shot, and it was the
general belief that be elected to take
the harder chance in a generous spirit
toward the Cuban people, with whom
de ORC was the favorite throughout the
match.
Spanish Minister Referee
The series of games between de Orc
and Otis took place in the Payret The
atre, and drew a great number of spec
tators. including President Menocal and
his staff. The Spanish Minister to
Cuba refereed the match.
When the third contest opened De
Orc had lead of 10 points over his
opponent, the score at the end Of the
second block being 1C0 to 80 in his
favor. In the final game the champion
missed often. while the challenger
showed cool, consistent play. gradually
overhauling the leader, and, in the end,
scoring SO points, which brought him
within l point Of the required $50.
Then he missed, and De Orc came up
and with 3 to make made run of ,.
which tied the score.
1t was at this stage that, in the opin-
ion of a great majority of the spec
tators, Otis had the opportunity of
winning, as what might have been his
final shot was not considered difficult,
except under the conditions Of his at
tempted shot. AS a consequence, he
missed, and De Orc ran out.

mile run of the Yorkville Athletic
League, held yesterday. After fight
ing out a duel for first honors during
tho last two miles, Levine succeeded
in outsprinting his rival in the final
fifty yards.
the bitter struggle staged by the
two Ninety y-second Street club ath
letcs carried them far away from the
remainder OF tho field. A period Of
actually 50 seconds had elapsed be-
fore George Gataky, representing the
Grcok-Amcrican Athletic Club, sped ovc"
the finish line to capture third hon
ors. Thereafter the young athletes
finished in quick order.
Only Two Quit Race
Besides the club athletes competing,
The army and navy were also repre-
scnted. However, precautions against
the wind and cold were taken by most
of the contestants, and only two failed
to cover tho full distance. In all,
twenty prizes were distributed.
Ice and snow covered a part Of the
trail and several Of the runners took
tumbles. Tim O'Connor, st. Ansclms
Athletic Club, and D. O'Connell, st.
Johns Club, set tho pace for the field
for the first mile, when they were
Joined by Levine and Stein. No at
tempt was made by any of the four
to jump away into sprint until the
second mile, when Levine challenged.
His rivals quickly followed suit, but
half-milc further on both O'Connor
and O'Connell had to drop rearward
Stein kept on the heels OF Levine and
