REQUIRES
 ONE MORE WIN
 TO CLINCH FLAC

New York, March 1.---One more victory will clnch the intercollegiate basketball championship for Pennsyl- vania- The Quaker collegians have now won seven games in a row and have only three more to play The worst they can do is to finish in a tie for the title with either Yale or Princeton, but for that to happen the leaders must drop every one of their remaining games while either the Ellis or the Tigers are winning all the contests still left on their schedules Just how slim such a possibility, is
 may be understood from the fact that Penn has played every rival in the league and has yet to be extended, every victory apparently being more decisive than the preceding one.
 With Penn's triumph already con ceded interest is centering on the race between Yale and Princeton for sec ond place in the final standing. To | date Yale has won one more game than the Tigers, but has been charged with as many defeats as the Prince
 ton collegianA Although Columbia
 came to life last week and scored a well earned victory over Cornell the 1 best the local five can hope for now is
 fourth place.

 individual scoring honors. Sweeney 1 is now in front by a margin of ont point.

Home Run King Tells Yankees He Will Make More Hc.ners Than Ever-Wants to Play
 Center Field

Jacksonville, Fla, March 1xhe Yankees reached their camp today af- ter long trip. Babe Ruth was cheered by local fans.
 The weather was not any too prom ising, however, for players who want to get right down to work. It was too chilly for that sort of thing. Boh Connery, the scout, was on hand te meet the party from New York and he will superintend the practice un- til Miller Huggins arrives. Higgins was i'll in New York hotel and was unable to leave with the rest. Re is expected Tuesday night.
 Connery has Joe Kelley, also ad- dicted to the scout habit, to help him. Kelly came aboard at Baltimore, and with him was Chick F'ewSter, Hug gin5s leading third base candidate, now that Baker has retired. Few ster is a bigger and more robust play CT than last year. He has taken on weight, and he can stand it.

 However, the big man of the party, ! literally and metaphorical1y, is Babe Ruth. Though the Babe has made no l effort to 'tcop the calcium so to speak, he asked everybody to have a cigar, of which he had a box full l Everybody did, even those who did not smoke as they glimpsed the Babe i towering over them.

(By ED HUGHES.)

Five years after Jimmy Britt had reached the zenith of his fighting fame the dapper Californian, finding the pickings on this side too formid- able for his waning powers, accepted the alternative. That is he embarked for Merry England. Of course Jim my had but meagre supply of the old fighting spirit left following his knockouts at the hands of Battling Nelson, Joe Cans, and Packey McFar- land. But an American, no matter 2ow long he has been skidding the
 ownward shoot, still thinks he has -nough 'pep" left to make good in England. And Sir James wasn't so far wrong at that
 Britts first encounter, just seven months after the Mcfarland knock out, was with Johnny Summers, then one of John Bulls foremost light weights. Britt, although exhausted at the finish, actually won the yer dict after ten hot rounds. Sum mers, in great dismay at the unex- pected outcome of the mill, main tained he was the better man in a longer bout, so the boxers were re- matched for a 20 round setto. Just before the gong changed to bring them together, Summers arose in his corner and executed the sign ot the cross, epce for himself and once for Britt. Summers, be it under stood, was a devout Catholic and one of the most religious beings that evef ornamented the prize ring. Britt who had no inkling of Summers re- l ligious principles, was dumbfounded Turning to his seconds, the American queried: What does he think I am
 
 body knew.
 Round after round, a few seconds | before the gongs clarion tones an nounced the resumption of hosti1ities 1 Summers brushed his towel-wieldeI aside and repeated the crossing cere- 1 mony. Jimmy regarded the tow. l headed little Briton with astonish. 1 ment, even going so far as to aSi l whether his mind was hitting on al | six cylinders. Summers gained the 1 decision by clear margin at the enc of the 20 rounds.
 'fNo kick on the decision, MT Corri,'' said the diplomatic Britt, lay ing his gloved fist on the arbiter! shoulder, "but can you explain fo me MT. Summers motive in continu ally making signs at me? Whats tn | big idea, eh, Gene?"
 Why returned Corri, ''He wasn' making signs at you, Britt. Summer is an ardent Catholic. He wa merely crossing himself and you, toe while beseeching Heaven for the de
 cision.'
 Britt rubbed his nose ref1ectivel
 and then remarked, well, MT. Corr

Giants Expect Big
 Deal To Come Soon
McGraw Must Do Something to Strengthen Infeld When He Reaches Texas Even If Reds Won't
 Give Him Kopf

St. Louis, March 1-The Giants to- day are speeding toward Texas on the Sunshine Special on the first step o1 the long journey toward the National League pennant Most of the party thus far is made up of ambitious youngsters who can hardly wait to get to San Antonio to show Manager McGraw their ability. They have their pet bats and gloves with them and plenty of confidence
 Waiting here for the party from New York were Lew McCarty, Art Nehf, Eddie Sicking, Jimmy Carton, Lee King, H. B. Mover, a new pitcher; Harry Bates, the Pittsheld, (Mass.) third baseman; Earl Smith, the catcher and Ed Mackan, the, veteran | trainer of the Giants.
 The first part of hte trip here was somewhat delayed yesterday when the Empire State Express, to which the Giants car was attached, ran out of the line of base and lost a couple | of hours. The detour was caused by l a wreck. and after blowing through two or three driving snowstorms the party arrived at Buffalo, where they
 made an eye1ash connection to this city The lost time has since been
 made up.
 In the party from New York was
 Dr. Beers, the club dentist, who went South with the club several years ago
 to look after the players mo1ars. The dentist will look after the chewing
 apparatus of the players. No bal
 player can do himself justice when
 he is carrying around a jumpins
 toothache, and McGraw doesn't wan
 any of his men out of the game witt
 ailments of the teeth.
 l Treasure Frank x. McQuade stated that Manager McGraw would conduc
 all the negotiations for the trades tn
 Giants have in mind. He said tha
 the Giants manager would probabl!
 be in San Antonio on Tuesday morn ing, when he would continue the deal 1 he is trying to negotiate. It is know
 that a deal is pending with St. Loui
 for Milton Stock.
 The coming week is sure to brin,
 forth something important in the trad
 ing line, for before leaving Cuba Man
 ager McCfraw started negotiations wit l several managers by cable He is nc ?. depending on a new infield star beiIs 3 developed at San Antonio, and is lay g ing wires for a second or third base = man who has been thoroughly ses q soned. If the present crop of hope d fuls should produce an infield star hR l. Frank Frisch, so much the better. e In Artie White, the inf1elder frol is the Catholic University Sn Washing g ton, who was recommended by Arthl = Devlin, it is believed that the Gdan 1T have another promising lad Devil e told McGraw that he firmly believe IS that young White is fully as good : n Frisch If Dev1in's prediction shou ,o come true, McGraw would not have
 worry about any trades.

JACKSON SAYS HE'LL WIN OVER
 DUNDEE MAR.S

New York, March 1.---Wilie Jack son, who is to meet Johnny Dundee in the star bout of eight rounds at the Arena in Jersey City next Monday night, declared yesterday that he sim cerely hopes Johnny gets away with his claiming of the lightweight cham pionship.
 ''f Dundee can put over that claim between now and March s. said Jack son, 'tI'll be the lightweight champion a week from Tuesday. I put Dundee out once, and I can repeat the trick Johnny isn't any spring chicken, as boxers go, and I figure that if a good hitter will sail right into him and sock with him, Johnny is bound to succumb. The reason Leonard can't knock out Dundee is because Benny doesn't keep after Johnny. He lets him rest now and then.
 I'm going to start swinging that right of mine, and I'm going to keeE on swinging it until MT. Dundee drops Gee, I only hope he gets away with that claim on the title.'

Annapolis Planning
 For Harvard Week

Annapolis, Md, March There will be a Harvard week at the Naval Academy this spring, forming one Of the most interesting features of the spring season in sport. About April 19 the Harvard rowing squad. con- sisting of members of the three crews with substitutes, coaches and attend ants, will arrive at Annapolis, using the Navy boat houses during the week and rowing against the Midship- men on April 24. On Wednesday Of the same week, Harvard baseball, la' crosse and tennis teams will meet those of the Naval Academy. The Harvard period will extend into the next week, for on May 1 the Union Boat Club of Boston. composed ot Harvard alumni, will TOW against the Academy.

Lew Edwards False
 Alarm, According to
 Western Fight Fans

New York, Mar. Doe Bag1ey said the other night that he was greatly disappointed when Willie Jackson had not been given the first chance at Lew Edwards, the Aus traIian. He was of the opinion that Edwards was greatly over-rated and that the first good man he met would stop him.
 His dope proved correct. But it also proves that bouts in Milwaukee, are not the 'tdances''- they. are here among the topnotchers and that the strict control the boxing commission has over the sport there is certainly a boon.
 Tom Andrews brought this fellow from Australia for a tour of the country and a match with Benny Leonard. The bout with Mitchell was staged in the Andrews bailiwick Yet Edwards was knocked out by Mitchell and Edwards is liable to be- come a liability on his hands from almost the start of the tour. If Edwards had started in the East l it would have been easy for him to avoid a knockout in his first fight as l soon as The learned the ropes"

SERGT. SMITH
 GOT TRAINING
 AS K. 6. BOXER

Sergeant Ray Smith. the man who recently won decision over Bob Martin heavyweight champion of the A. B. F., was, until recently mem Der of the Knights of Columbus fly ing squadron of boxers, which has given more than one thousand e1hfbi- ton bouts to men in military hos pitals in and around New York
 Smiths training as a K-C boxer consisted of travelling from camp to camp and hospital to hospital, fight ing hard, getting home late at night after one bout and getting up early the next day to travel to another camp for the next bout He was al- ways popular with the doughboys, one reason being real battle scars and not the ring marks that he car ries with him in his fights. Smith was wounded at the first great Yankee battle in. France at Cantigny.
 He claims to have won decision over Bob Martin in four round bout in Paris, and this claim seems to be valid in view of his recent defeat o1 Martin. Smith is twenty-four years old, in the ITO pound class and, for , pugilist, is unusually well educated.
