Princeton Golfers Win
intercollegiate Title

Princeton won the team cham
pionship of the intercollegiate golf
association yesterday by the COM
Portable margin of thirty-one strokes.
The Tiger quartet had a team total
of 1855 strokes for their four rounds
of the Merton Cricket Clubs famous
East course.
The Orange and Black linksmen
were so far in the lead at the end of
the third round that it was obvious
they could not be headed barring
complete collapse by the entire
team. So interest shifted to the
keen battle for second place between
Yale and Harvard. And this turned
out to be bitter struggle, the Grim
son combination landing the runner
up position by single stroke. Sid
ney Scott, the youthful Eli, who
made such a fine showing at the
Wilmington tournament last week,
chucked the Blues chance for vic
tory away on the sixteenth hole. A
five, the usual figure for the six
teenth, would have given second
place to the New Haven aggregation
by one stroke.
Harvard had a total of 1886 while
Yale's was 1887. Penn was fourth
with 1410, Columbia was fifth with
1889 while Williams was bad sixth
with 1913.
Individual honors went to A. L.
Walker, Jr., the Columbia captain
who averaged eighty for a grand
total of 800 for his four rounds. I.
B. Davis, the Yale skipper, was
close second with 323 for his sew
enty-two hole grind. r. w. Wool
worth, of Princeton, was third with
total of 328. None of the others
broke $50. ]. S. Dean, the Princeton
captain, who won the qualifying
round medals at the recent Lynne
wood Hall and Wilmington links
jocusts, fell by the wayside and took
337, being beaten by five strokes by
Sidney Scott, who had a card of 332.

JUNIOR LEAGUES
CHECKERED LIFE
Only Two Teams of Last Year
Stuck to Guns; Swatara
Has New Lineup

Last evenings City Junior League
contest between st. Marys and East
End was postponed on account of
rain and will be played off later in
the season.
This evening St Mary's Juniors
of Steelton will take part in their
first game with Swatara. Some fast
work is expected from these ooys
and Swatara will have to play hard
to show these boys up.
The City Junior League has had
a rather tempestuouS career this
season. Five clubs have been tried
so far to fill the vacancy left by the
dropping out of other teams. Leaves,
West End Jrs., Algonquins, Nau-
dains and Peerless mines have all
been in the circuit and quit on ac-
count of unsatisfactory reasons. All
of these teams failed to make good
and the only two teams which were
with the organization last year, then
called the Allison Hill Junior League
and still with the league this year,
are Swatara and East End. Swatara
team was on the verge of breaking
up within the last few weeks when
eight players resigned and went
with Naudain, but new players were
signed up and now Swatara has one
of the fastest teams in the city.
The City Junior League lost Peer
less Monday evening when they
were defeated by the East End nine
and gave no reasons for quitting.
The Peerless boys were putting up a
hard fight and gained third po-
sition during the time they were in
the league and would have probably
done better.
The Liberty A. c., which had
been going the season at a good clip,
will probably enter the league in the
place of Peerless unless other ar
rangements are made and will prob
ably appear in their first game to-
morrow against East End.
LEAGUE NOTES
Swatara now has one of the fast
est teams in the city since the new
lineup has been made. Young, whom
Swatara has signed up as a back
stop, made his initial appearance
Monday evening with three singles
out of five times up.
Mickey. who is holding down left
field. has also made four safeties out
of ten times up and has not had an
error with six putouts.
Kline twirled his first game for
Swatara Monday evening against
East End, only four hits being
made off his delivery, but costly err
rors by his teammates helped great
~ for East End to pile up nine
runs.
Motter and Sharon are both put
ting up a good game in center field
for Swatara and are making timely
hits.
Matter, the star infielder of Swa-
tara, is certainly doing his share in
the stick work line. Matter is
among the first ten leading bats
men of the league.
Hildebrand, of Steelton, has sign
ed to twirl for Swatara the re-
mainder of the season.
Swatara is after some fast teams
for out-of-town games. Many Sat
urday dates are open. All COM
munications should be addressed to
Manager Mitchell, 1543 Swatara
street, Bell phone 4645-R; or to
Captain Shearer, 615 South Front
street, Bell phone 4457-R.
