School Leads From Start to
Finish for Silver
Trophy.

A programme Of seventeen events
made up the twentieth annual indoor
meet of the De witt Clinton High School
in the Twenty-second Regiment Armory
yesterday where a big crows % young
sters yelled themselves hoarse. One OF
the first races to stir the spectators
Baronofsky OF De La Sale gave fine
display of style and speed. Bounding
away at the start, he led all the way
and won with hands down. Louis Cen
tile, the cross country champion, made
a sensational squirt in the last lap, and
he landed in second place.
From start to finish Stuyvesant High
School led in the point score and won
with comfortable margin.
A contest of the blood tinklins sort
wound up the programme in the mile
relay open for all schools. 1t was here
that De La Sale showed its strength
by practically leading all the way and
winning by ten yards from the Clinton
runners.
The list contained four sprinting events,
that Is, a so and 20 yard closed and a
100 junio- and senior open. By far the
snoothest place OF fiat floor sprintlng was
seen in the loo yard junior, where Erie
Dawkins. d negro boy from Stuyvesan',
ran away from the field, winning the
final easily by a margin of three yards.
Another negro boy captured the first
medal in this 100 yard senior open. when
Fred Hardy of Clinton won the final by
two yards from his nearest rival.
Gentle contributed a rousing finish TO
the mile run, which he won by several
yards. For three-quarters OF mile the
italian was away off, but the last lap he
came up from nowhere and went through
his field as II they had been standing.
A Bridgeport delegation was satisfied
when u runner named Skane won place
in the mile. which was something to be
proud of. when it is remembered that the
Bridgeport boys have no track to train
upon nor a building where they could
have even setting up exercise.

There's baseball deal of Importance
brewing in the National League and 1t
may come to completion in the next few
days. The report comes pretty straight
and the proposed deal involves four
clubs-the Giants. Reds. Cardinals and
Braves. Hermann and the New York
officials have been in conference since
the formers arrival here, and Hickey
and Grant have been in the near
vicinity.
The deal may be one of those COM
plicated ones in which one move is con-
tingent upon another, or 1t may simmer
down to a direct transaction between
two teams Independent of other swaps
which may be made Each of these
four clubs has certain trading material
by which some one of the others can
be benefited.
AS for the Giants. they need another
outfielder and infielder, and the Reds
are not averse to breaking up their COM
bination, either outfield or infield. to get
another pitcher and infielder Hickey
wants pitchers and fielder or two
He admitted yesterday that deal was
on the tapis, but further than that
wouldn't go except to declare that
Hornsby positively was not involved
There's no use trading Hornsby any
more until he really is traded. Such
move is not in sight, but the Cardinals
have other players.
Judge Lands said yesterday that Il
had practically been determined who his
secretary would be. He wouldn't say
who 1t was for fear there might be
slip at the last minute. John b. Foster
has been most prominently mentioned in
this capacity. and those who know him
are agreed that he is the best man for
the place.

BY DANIEL.

Eleven defaults took a lot OF zip
out of the opening rounds of the ma
tional handicap squash tournament at
the Harvard Club yesterday afternoon.
There were enough hard and interest
ing matches to make up for these can
cellations, but there was no denying
that the absence of a few OF those
who had been counted on to make
things interesting took away no small
part of the original color of the draw.
Among those who failed to play was
Charles n Bull, Jr, of the Crescent
Athletic Club, who with Anderson
Dana Of the Harvard Club. was handed
the limit handicap of minus 10 aces.
Bull was scheduled to meet j. A.

the veterans repeated rallies in the first
game. Dana took that at 1916. and
then had his. man just where he wanted
him.
Keller did not have enough left to con-
tinue the battle against his younger OPP
ponent and the Harvard star scored at
1919. Dana had about everything in the
repertoire of first rank squash player.
but his biggest assets were MS youth
and speed. He seemed to be cbe to get
his rival out of position in the critical
rallies and outlasted him in the pro-
longed voleys. Dana's next opponent
will be L. l. Grinnell also of Harvard,
