Jamaica Retains
Lead in Fight for
Big Hockey Tile

The Jamaica High School retained its
lead IN the fight for the championship
by defeating the badly shattered Man
ual Training High School team in a
contest of the Brooklyn-Long Island
lntcrscholastic Hockey League series
at the Brooklyn Ice Palace last night
by a score of to 0. An even more de-
clslve victory was that of Poly Prep
School in downing Boys High School
by count of goals TO /.
Jamaica retains a slight lead for the
honors, that of one point, over the
Poly boys. Jamaica has won four of
ITS tive games, while Poly has won
three, lost one and tied one. Erasmus
Hall is third in the standing.
The Farah brothers, frank and Hcc-
tor, ran rampant in leading Poly to
another victory. Frank was the brill
liant star with six goals, while Hector
had one. Pepper surprised the Poly
skaters by shooting goal home for
Boys High in the second half.
The reconstructed Manual team failed
to show the invincible work of its for
mer team, prior to the February gradu-
ations, against the Jamaica team. The
latter players always had the game in
hand, and for three quarters of the
contest forced the issue.
The lineup follows:

An idea of Halas's clouting ability
may be gained when it is stated that
he was the top-notch batter Of last
seasons Great Lakes Naval Station
nine, which won the Middle Western
service titlc. To do this he had to
outbat Joe Leonard, of Washington;
Benny Dyer. of the Tigers; Paddy Dris-
coll, Of the Cubs; Bill Johnson, of the
Athletics, and Chet Thomas, of the
Boston Red SoX.
IN addition to his powerful hitting
ability, he is also an outiiclder of the
"go-get- en- variety. The Chcagoan is
surprisingly active for 175- FOUNDER

on last seasons Great Lakes gridiron
outfit, which earned the United States
service title. At present he is per

Yankees Have Grabbed Star
La Halas, Says George Huff

"One of the most capable, versatile
athletes | have ever seem" is the way
George Huff, sport mentor at the Uni
vcrsity of Illinois, has summed up the
college career OF Outfelder George
Halas, who will ramble South this
spring with the Yanks in search Of an
outfield berth.
Young Ilalas appears to have dis
played oodlcs of real baseball knowl-
edge during his prep school days. Bob
Connery, the Yankee scout, plucked
him from under the noses of Charles
Comiskey and Lee Fohl, of the Indians.
1t ell happened at the American League
meeting in Chicago last December
It has been a wide-open secret
around the Sox Offices in Chicago that
Comiskey had a fancy for Halas even
during his college days, where he al
ways was one Of the teams most dam
aging stickers. 1t is known also that
the youthful Yank has been in secret
sessions with Commy at least twice
aad with the Cleveland owners. But,
on the advice of the crafty Huff, Halas
remained free man until Connery
tackled him for big gain.

Clarke Wins Title
From A. Carnegie
On Florida Links

PALM BEACH, Fla, Feb 14-H.
Clarke, Myopia, is the new South
Florida golf champion. He defeated
Andrew Carnegie, I'd, of the same club
to-day in contest that went twenty
holes, but which from the standpoint
of good golf was otherwise something
of a disappointment.
Carnegie, after having played a fine
game throughout the week, became ex-
tremely erratic and what ne lost on his
long game Clarke matched with poor
putting. Errors on the greens were
common with both players, surpris-
ingly large number of short puts be-
ing missed.
The champion was one down at the
turn and also lost the tenth, but won
the eleventh, CT, after series of
errors on both sides. Clarke getting
into the railroad track and Carnegie
foozling both puts that should have
made the hole his.
The champion saved the match for
himself on the eighteenth when he tied
the score by running one down from
near the edge Of the green.

First Named Seeks Job
Held by Heinie Zim;

By w. !. Macbeth

Two more Giants yesterday forward
ed their signed contracts for 1919 to
Secretary John B. Foster. These were
cubs, energetic and anxious to climb
aboard the McGraw special to Penuant-
Vile, and to take advantage of any
possible opportunity of hardness on the
part of the regular crew. Z. Sticking,

ers who expect to dust off some of the
old birds a. Gainesville, Fla. some six
weeks hence.
1t Is possible that both young men
may renlize their ambitions this sea-

several training trips with McGraw, at

MIN ripe for major league trial one
year ago.
