New-York tribune., 1920-01-14

Columbia, although she has not won
match in the league race, had some
measure of satisfaction yesterday in
the tussle with the Yale Club. for
Duncan Bulkley, one of the Blue and
White players, took the measure of
Livingston Platt, of Yale. by score
Of Ills. 1913. 17-14. the result
coming as distinct surprise to those
who expected to see Platt come
through without trouble.
Yale and Harvard will meet to de-
eide the championship of the league
on neutral court, at date yet to be
announced, and this match is certain to
be bitterly fought contest, for the
rival teams have been making close
struggle of it all through the season.
Harvard as Favorite
Harvard probably will he slight
favorite in the betting when her play
ers face the Yale men, with Anderson
Dana, John W. Appel jr., national
champion, and Eric Winston as her
most formidable contenders. Augustus
J. Cordier, Cornelius j. Mcguire and
Livingston Plat will carry Yale's
hopes.
The season for the Class A teams
came to an official end yesterday after
noon, when Harvard whitewashed the
Princeton-Squash Club team, on the
Squash Club courts. by total of
5 matches to 0, and Yale defeated Co
lumbia on the Yale courts by total
of matches to 1.
The scheduled fifth individual match
between the Yale and Columbia teams
was not played, it having been previ-
ously agreed that unless there was a
tie only four matches would be played.
The veteran Frederick S. Keeler, of
the Columbia. Club, played the No. 1
position for his alma mater. and al
though he was opposed by Yale's star,
Augustus J.sCordicr, managed to hold
his younger opponent to close match,
the games going at 15-12, 15--11.
Overmatched in. speed and hard hit
ting, Keller fell back upon his court
craft and beautiful placing, and Cor
dier at no time in the match could
afford to loaf.
OF to Poor Start
Duncan Bulkley started off against
Platt without all his speed and control,
but after dropping the first game at
Ills, the Columbia man worked into
his full stride, and then the struggle
taking the second game at 1913 and
the third at 17-14, after many thrill
ing rallies.
Dana had no difficulty in eliminating
Harold Tobey. of the Princeton Squash
Club. defeating his man in straight
games at 15-2, 15-7, and Appel won
his match from H. r. Mixsell at 155,
1s-4, displaying beautifully rounded
game and executing difficult shots
from every position in the court.

BADLY BURNED As

Harry Lutz, son of Will Lutz, en-
ployed at the Oatman Hardware Co.,
is suffering of a badly burned face,
the result of holding a lighted match
over barrel that formerly contained
denatured alcohol, last Saturday
morning. His right ear and chin re-
ceived the most of the explosion and
his hair was considerably singed. II
is said that his eyes escaped injury.
According to Harry Adams, manag-
er Of the store, a customer was being
shown a spray pump which had beer
set in the barrel and had not been in
use for some time. While the Gus.
toner and the clerk had their backs
turned, young Lutz, curious to know
what was in the barrel, peered thru &
four-fnch hole but the interior was tot
dark. Then he struck a match ant
held it to the hole, at the same tim'
endeavoring to look into the barrel
The gas generated in the barrel cam

plosion followed. .~.. .-

with cheese cloth, gave him emergen

WADSWORTH MEN WILL
START PLANT HERE

1t appears that Medina is going
begging for an ice plant for want OF
a location. The Codding- -Bagley-
Case Co. has been endeavoring to Sc
cure a site but without success. One
near the railroad track is desired.
John Busher and Mark Hazen, two
experienced ice men in Wadsworth
are desirous of installing a plant here,
the only drawback at present being
the lack Of a favorable site.
About $4,000 will be put into the
plant by the operators who expect to
install a 12-ton machine capable of ex-
pansion by units as the demand for
the product manifests itself. The
first unit would give employment to
about six men, say the operators.
Such plant could be erected and in
operation within six weeks.
A big demand for ice exists here in
the summertime. The geld product
was wholesaled last summer for S18
oer ton, rate of 80 cents per hun
dred. This is an absurd price to pay
for natural ice, not at all the equal OF
artificial ice in purity and cleanliness
With plant in operation in this city
nll of the residents could have ice, as
well as the stores and at more reas-
enable figure.
With such an advantage offering
to the city it would be good economic
policy to encourage the coming of this
industry by the appointment of a
committee of business interests to
coufer with the Wadsworth men.
