W|LFREO REID SHINES
ON PIAEHURST LINKS
Wilmington Country Club Pro-
fessional Had Best Record
Saturday.

Wilfred Reid, professional golfer of the
Wilmington Country Club, was the
shining light on the Pinehurst, N c.,
Golf links on Saturday. Though he and his
partner, L. A. Hamilton Of Garden CITY.
were defeated in an amateur-pro match
by l.. c. Spindler OF Fox Hills and Charles
Hoffncr of the Philmont Club, his work
was the best Of all
Reid INDUCED IN mediocre start and a
poor ending but nevertheless contrived
20 cover the course in 35-36-7i, which
was by far the best individual round of
the DAY. Reds chief stunt was an eagle
3 on the par fifth hole The rest of IL
was just steady going. He went out in a
stroke under par and took one more than
par TO come home. His partner was, how
ever, more ornamental than useful in the
pinches and Hoffner and Spindler took
the match by and by virtue OF re mark
able teamwork and some extraordinary
golf on the part of the Philmont profess
sional.
HofIner hoIed no less than five long
puts or mashie pitches from off the
green's and every one of them resulted
in sheer robbery and a birdie score for
the hole. He drove into a trap going
To the third hole and finished with a
birdie g. At the sixth he holed out for
q from a good 10 feet off the green.
He was 20 yards shy of the green on his
second shot Tor the tenth, and holed his
third for another birdie The fourteenth
be took under par with another long one,
and he broke Reid : heart at the fifteenth,
where, after Reid had driven dead TO the
pm, matter of PIP wards, Hoffner sank
45-iooter for a and halved the hole.

FRIENDS WIN ROUGH
GAME FROM FRESH|ES
Delaware College Boys Defeated
in Hard-Foueht Contest, Sat-
urday Afternoon.

In q very roughly contested basketball
game, Friends School defeated the Della
ware Freshmen quintet at the Friends
gym last Saturday afternoon. From the
start II was evident that the locals out
classed the v,sitors, even with II. Smith,
the big center, ont Of the game. Smith,
who has PLAYED an exceptional game for
the Blue and White, was unsvoidably out
of town and Mode took his place at cen
ter, while Bradford played the other for
ward position.
While Mode did not sucoeed In scoring,
his guard game WAS wonderful and he was
able to successfully start all the combina-
tions for Friends and hold his man, al
though outweighed considerably by his
husky opponent. In spite of the fact that
he was injured In the e3rly part OF the
first half, he gamely fought it out to the
finish
Delaware evidently considered LAckey
a dangerous man AZ he was completely
frozen" the entire game. Part of the
game one man was watching him and
often two men were delegated to keep
him from shooting But Friends demon
strated that IT was not one-map team,
and while they were watching Lackey,
Bradford and i. Smith rolled up the
score.
Lackey, as usual, was accurate at the
foul line, netting IL out of 10 tries. He
also secured two field goals. Bradford,
changed from guard to forward, played
an excellent game. Chambers, who took
his place at guard, was aggressive and
proved himself varsity material.
f. Smith surprised his opponents by
dropping in six two-pointers from the
middle of the floor.
Delaware used the five men down the
floor defense" but Friends seemed to
have no difficulty in scoring at will The
visitors seemed to lack accuracy and team
play, while accurate passing and shooting
won the game for the Blue and White.
Robinson was high scorer for the Fresh
men, scoring two field goals and out of
l3 trials from the foul line. The score
follows:

Board Of Review Straddles Unshackling
Amendment.


Canton, O, Feb. 2.--Mombcrs OF the
Board Of Review Of the National Trotting
association, which with the American
Irotting Association, governs light har-
ness racing in more than 1900 city Assoc
Citations, amended the "unshnckling rule
IN session hero Saturday afternoon.
by unanimous vote the board decided
that after horse has acquired win
race, he shall be allowed, whether raced
or not, two seconds for each calendar year
until he reduces his time, but that the
limit shall not exceed three years or six
seconds. The "unshackling" rule as passed
by the joint committee of the National and
American Trotting Association last fall i,
and then voted upon favorably by the Ma
tIonal Association last December, prcscrib-
ed that after horse acquired win race
of PIP or better on a mile track, or 2.l6
or better on a half-milc track, and the
same WAS not reduced during the next two
calendar years, exclusive Of tho year in
which the win race was made, the mark
should be Cancelled and the horse sent back
to the PIP class on mile track and the
ZIG class on a half-milc track until he
acquires another win race.
In repeating the rule and passing the
new legislation the board took what it
considered to the he" middle ground" Ac-
ton on the National Associations move
will be taken by the American Asso-
citation when it meets in February.

NEWARK HIGH BOYS
Latter Overwhelmed Saturday by
AZ to 10; Brown Prep. and
Dover High This Week.

The Newark High School basketball
team received An overwhelming defeat
at the hands of the Salcsianum cagers
last Saturday afternoon, when they took
tho short end OF AZ to Is score at the
st. Patrick's gym.
Although tho college town boys started
the scoring-Armstrong dropped in a free
toss-the locals soon took safe lead,
through the accurate shooting Of Quinn
and Rycxek, and the great defensive work
of Seery and Lowell, who guarded their
opponents so we'll that they were able TO
part the netting on only three occasions
for two-pointers, all of which were OBJ
tanned during the first half, which ended
"a TO 10 in the Gold and Whites favor.
Armstrong and Moore starred for the
dcwn-staters, the former accounting for
Ia of his teammates 16 points, while the
latter played good passing game.

victors against the Newark five, they hav-
ing outclasscd the latter quintet earlier in
the season by IL to score at Newark.

ule for this week, at the st. Patrick gym.
The first is on Wednesday evening
against the strong Brown Preparatory
School of Philadelphia. This team de-
feated last years Gold and White FIVE by

avenged. This years defenders of the
local institution are confident that they
can wipe out this sad remembrance.

staged on next Saturday afternoon against
the Dover High dribblers. The locals arc
looking forward TO another easy victory,
As they wish TO outclass all the Delaware
teams they have included on their schod-
