High winds that brought touch Of

thing but ideal yesterday. AS re-
suit, the scores were not particularly
high, the high scratch prize going to
former national champion R. L. SPOTS,
with a card of 81 out of possible

nlmrod who had straight string in
any Of the shoots. This occurred in
the shoot for the Presidents Cup.
The high handicap prize went to R.
B. Sloan. A scratch special was an

Sydney Duffy Wins
Chief Short Event
AtLarchmOnt Y.C.

Sydney Duffy won the high handi-
cap prize in the weekend shoot of the
Larchmont Yacht Club yesterday. He
took the trophy from field of six
teen gunners only after an interesting
shoot off against Holm Andersen.
Each had a grand total of 90 out of
a possible 100 targets in the original
shoot and to make matters more inter
esting each shot with q handicap of 40
and therefore each had net total of So
"birds." On the shoot off, which was
held in the cleaning, Dufy's eye
was the better and he "killed" 13
against 10 "birds" knocked down by
his opponent.
r. j. McCahill, who shoots from
scratch, was in good form and man
aged to win the high scratch prize
with q string of 86 out Of q possible
100 targets. The score was excep-
tionally good considering the high
wind and the poor light.

Although five matches we're carded

The score was 15--8, 15-5.
Keeler, in obtaining the victory,
played clean-cut, fast game of squash.
which kept him in front from start to
finish. Martin put up a stubborn re-
sistance, but was unable to cope with
the splendid all-around game of his
opponent: Keeler not only did we'll in

ceptionally good on the defense.

Princeton's defeat of the c. c. N. Y.

of having an exceptionally capable

pear to have an excellent chance Of

cap. 1t was believed if the big fellows
were forced to buy much better prices
would be realized. The majors either
bought at their own price or did no
trafficking. The result was there was
practically no drafting for the first
time in history, and hundreds of
thousands of dollars that came annu-
leagues were lost. The player market
for the little fellows was stagnant.
The larger minor leagues which had
held the alluring bait of high draft
prices, did no drafting. either.
The minor leagues now wish to re-
store some such working agreement
as existed up to the end of 1918. They
prefer the old drafting rules and prices
and the optional agreement contracts
to the conditions that obtained last
season. Of course, they are anxious to
ask for a higher scale of draft prices,
