Wainwright Scores
Victory Over Adams
On Squash Courts

A month of squash tennis activity
at the Yale Club was ushered in yes.
terday with the playing of the open.
ing round of the annual Class A
scratch tournament. All the prom
inent players are entered, and the va
rlous matches arranged for the com
ing three weeks are intended to put
the men in shape for the club cham
pionship later this month.
Three of the four matches played
were keenly fought, especially that in
which Stuyvesant Wainwright defeat
ed William Adams by a score of 15-5
l2-15, 1915.
Adams was far from his best form
IN the first game, which his rival
won easily, but thereafter put up a
stubborn attack, compelling Vain
wright to call into play every trick
to defeat him.
Another hard match was won by
Alan Corey, whose terrific smashing
shots proved too hot for c. J. Mcguire
to handle.

The University of Pittsburgh sur
prised every one last year by taking
second place in the Intercollegiate,
while earlier in the season at the Penn
Sylvania relay carnival they provided
the sensation by winning three races,
Two of which, the sprint medley and
the one mile, were American cham
pionships. This years team is stronger
than last years and will be watched
with the keenest interest on Franklin
Field April 25 and 26.
Last year Pittsburgh started on Fri
day in the sprint medley relay cham
pionship, which the Panthers won after
hard race from Pennsylvania. This
year they have stronger team in
Brickley and Peters for the two-fur-
long relays; Shea for the quarter and
Albright for the half Albright was
third in the half-mile championship
last year and can run his half in
minute 81 seconds.
1t is rumored that Pittsburgh will
probably use Eckhardt for the quarter
and put Shea in for the half There is
no doubt that Shea can run a fast
half. Eckhardt can do close to so sec
ords for the quarter, so Coach Kerr
feels that the team will keep near the
front for the first three relays and that
Shea can come through in the half mile
distance and win out
Pennsylvania will have corking
team in Raymond and Davis, who were
first and third in the 220-yard intercol-
legiate championship, running the first
two relays at their favorite distance;
Smith for the quarter and Gustavson
FOR the half. Columbia, Dartmouth
Missouri, Princeton, Michigan and Chi
cago also have teams that should 20
near the record. This means that this
race should be one of the greatest that
has ever been seen on Franklin Field
This event Is run on Friday.
Pittsburgh is entered in both the

In Squash Tennis Match

Frederick S. Keller was eliminated
from the tourney when he was beaten
by Harold D. Buckley in a semi-fnal
round match of the Glass A series for
the Columbia Club squash tennis cham
pionship yesterday. The match was
featured by long rallies, despite the
score of 3-15, 15-8, 15-7. Keller was
baffled by his opponents southpaw
drives, and also had trouble contend
ing with Bulkley's low shots.
Robert L. Strebeigh was among tho
winners in the Glass B tourney, down
ing N. F. Cushman rather easily by
score of 15--3, 156. f. D. Shaw also
triumphed over r. M. McCollom by a
tally of 15-2, 15-3, while A. B.

In the Training Camp
-CRANTLAND RICE

JACKSONVILLE, Fla, April g.
The Yanks concluded their second
training week here to-day under a sun
hot enough to bake pretzels. There
were times when the bubbles began
popping in the necks of the athletes,
which is the final test Ct training
weather.
Al Mamaux has apparently come
back to the form which made him
famous. The ex-Pirate had the Yanhs
blinking modify at his repertery this
afternoon, and not a man broke
through his guard in five rounds. Wally
Pipp was credited with a blow in the
fourth, but the drive was merely an
outfeld fly, which Griffith lost in the
sun. Ordinarily it would have been
an easy out. This was the only punch
that even resembled his while
MamauX was at work.
Mamaux carried kink in his arm
for year or two, but the ship rivet-
ing business must have ironed it out.
He had as much stuff this afternoon
as he ever had with Pittsburgh when
he looked like a million dollars.
George Mogridge worked With his
usual steadiness. The Dodgers tapped
his supply for a run, but he pitched
himself out Of blnkin she'll hole in
the third. with runners on second and
third and nobody out.
Mr.. Ward spent two innings dream

tenn he was operating no one seems

final round match of the annual han

tennis tournament yesterday. The
score was 15-11, 1913, 1913.
Bishop only accomplished his victory
by setting terrific pace through out
and continually resorting to change
of pace that baffled Casey. In the
third game Bishop tired somewhat,
but braced admirably after setting the
game at 10 all.
