Willie Ball, City College crack for
ward has been elected catain of the

Poly Prep Loses
Close Ice Game
To MOntclair

The Poly Prep hockey team, re-
garded as one of the best schoolboy ice
combinations in the East, lost close
game to Montclair High School at Poly
Rink in Brooklyn yesterday morning.
The visitors won by score Of TO z,
gaining the victory in the last few
minutes Of play.
Poly Rink is located in hollow
about 200 yards from Gravesend Bay
and the teams played through two IS
minute halves with the thermome eter
registering zero. Owing to the small
rink six boys played on each side.
Captain Sayles, center of the Mont
clair team. was the individual star and
practically defeated Poly single
handed. He MADE the only two goals
scored in the first half, and in the
closing period, after Poly had tied the
game, he carried the puck close to the
home cage and passed to Scott, who
slammed the rubber disc into the net.
Captain Farah and Sadler registered
ethe goals for the losers.
In the afternoon the Poly six de-
feated the Boys High School team by
a total of 8 goals to /.

tional League decided that it would
allow six weeks for spring training this
season. AS result McGraw's secret
service has been busy ever since round
ing up young talent that will be given
serious consideration throughout the
stay at San Antonio, Tex. The Giants
manager has gathered into his fold
half d dozen young infelders, nearly
as many outfelders and rookie pitchers
in even greater numbers.
One of the Giant recruits who is
bound to be given every opportunity is
J. r. Horie, q product of Manhattan.
Horie is first baseman who bats and
throws left-handed. 1t is a we'll known
fact that q left-handed fielder has g
great edge for that particular position.
With Hal Chase evidently on the
toboggan it becomes only question of
time before the greatest first base
artist of all time must be replaced.
George Kelly, who toward the end of
1919 was Chase's understudy, may fill
the bill all right. But Kelly is a
right-handed thrower, and, all things
else being equal, Horie might easily
improve his opportunities despite his
lack of experience,
Horie's experience is limited to
semi professional baseball. For the
past four years he played at Peekskill,
N. Y. In that time he compiled the
following average:

the National League allowed only four

McGraw took few rockies into his

much on his veterans that he had prac-
tically no time for recruits.

The invitation of the University Of
Pennsylvania to compete in the annual
relay carnival at Franklin Field was
extended to both Oxford and Cam
bridge universities. 1t was suggested
that the two English institutions
select combined team of from five to
ten track and field athletes and enter
them in the individual and relay
events.
1t is understood that the invitation
was cordially received abroad, but that
certain scholastic and athletic diff
cultes stood in the way of an imme-
date acceptance.
The first dual track meet between
Oxford and Cambridge since the
spring Of 1914 will be held during the
coming March and it is thought that
the English university athletic asso-
cations VIII be IN position to give
definite answer TO the invitation
Immediately following these inter
varsity games. A high class athletic
showing, especially in the distance
runs, would probably mean the send
ing of the team to the Pennsylvania
relays.
The first and only appearance of an
the relays, the nearest approach to
a national intercollegiate track meet
held annually in this country, was in
1914, when the Oxford University team
won the four-mile relay in Is minutes
5 seconds. Arnold n. S. jackson. the
Oxford captain. finished the final mile
just two inches ahead of Captain
McCurdy, of Pennsylvania, after one
of the most sensational finishes ever
witnessed at Franklin Field.
In fact it was thought that the pain

Oxford Also Accepts
PHILADELPHIA, Jan 31.-Provi-
sional acceptance of the invitation t.
compete in the University Of Pennsyl-
vanla relay carnival at Franklin Fielt
on April so and May has been re-
eeived by the management OF the games
both from Cambridge and Oxford uni
versitjes. Both Institutions, Pennsyl-
vania authorities said tonight, appear
eager to send men to the relays, but
whether they will be able to do so de-
pends uuon their ability to collect 9
team which they consider of sufficient
strength to compete
Another obstacle that stands in the
way is the matter of obtaining per
mission from the deans Of t. { two uni
versities for ten days extra leave. II
recent communication from Cam
bridge confidence was expressed tha
this permission would be given. Should
j tie two British institutions not be abl,
to get separate teams together it wa:
said they may send a combined team
which would compete both in the in
dividuai and relay events.
One addition to the program for the
meet was announced Tonight. 1t is ar
