Columbia Near Record
In Final Rifle Match

Columbia's rife team ended its sea-
son yesterday afternoon by rolling uo a
score of 983 out of a possible 1000 in
the fnal match of the intercollegiate
shooting championships. The mark was
one below the new record of 9s4, made
in the previous title match, and it gave
the Blue and White a total of 9,739 for
the ten shoots.
Although figures for the final stand
ing of the colleges which are taking
part in the tournament are not avail
ape as yet 1t IS a foregone conclusion
that Columbia will better it's position
this season. The M%orningside marks
men finished in eighth place last year.
with a total of 9,545, nearly 200 under
.he present mark. Penn captured the
championship with $500. On compare
tive scores Columbia this season should
gain third position.

Junior CROSSE Country
Run Put Back to Fall

The junior cro%ss-country champion
ship committee of the Metropolitan AS
soclatlon reverted to it's old policy
when it announced last night that ths
annual title fixture would be held next
fall. 1t was at first intended to con-
duct the event in June, but this was
considered inadvisable, as the athletes
are now preparing themselves for the
outdoor track and field season.
The junior outdoor track and field
championship committee also held a
meeting, but the expected awarding of
the annual contest did not materiafizc.
1t was decided to defer action, as clubs
of the Bronx have offered the use Of
the newly-built Bronx Athletic Field.
This is the fourth park that has been
put at the disposal of the committee
for the meet.

>Frisch Operated
On; Wilde Off
Team Sir Weeks

THE Giants suffered a serious
loss yesterday in the person of
Frank Frisch, the sensational
yong third baseman, who was
operated on for appendicitis.
Frisch was stricken on the train
Sunday night while en- route from
Boston to New York, and upon his
arrival in this city was taken to his
home, 3211 Perry Avenue, the
Bronx.
DIR. E. r.. Cunnife, head surgeon
of Fordham Hospital, removed
Frisch's appendix yesterday morn
ing. The operation was most sue
cessful and the patient late last
night was reported rs progressing
.favOrably.
1t will be six weeks or two months
before Frisch is able to get back
into the Giants lineup. He gave
promise of being n of the teams
brightest stars this season.

course, was killed in his tracks.
This escape encouraged Winters and
Snyder killed off Kilduf on a dribbler
in front of the plate and Elliott
grounded to Fletcher.
Pitches Faultless Game
That first inning vas the ball game.
Throughout the last eight innings
Marquard pitched such ball as he had
never bettered in his illustrious career.
Only one man reached second base for
New York after the first inning, and
this in the third when RUDE handed
out two of the four passes he gave.
The New York batters, for the most
though it is true that Wheat and
Myers both ruined extra base hits with
wonderful catches of line drives. After
the first Snyder got the only hit, a
single in the seventh with two out.
Winters went we'll, too. He was
only in trouble once and then Larry
Doyle rescued him with as smart a
play as ever will be seen. Honey, who
had walked, was on second with two
out when Marquard hit through the
box. Doyle got the ball with his bare
hand away in behind the bag. There
was no chance for a play on the bat
ter, but Larry whipped the sphere to
Sticking and caught Honey overrunning
the third base.
Phil Douglas pitched the last two
innings for the Giants. Winters giving
way to a pinch hitter in the seventh.
Neis, Johnston and Honey punched
singles with one out and filled the
bases. But Phil put on steam and
famed Myers, while Honey forced
Johnston, Sticking unassisted.

He took careful aim at Aaron Ward,
but the ball whizzed several yards high
and to the right. By the time it was
recovered two u n had crossed the
plate.
The six thousand who witnessed this
calamity continued to plead to the
Yanks for a rally. The Yanks did not
exactly rally in the ninth, but the Sena-
tors unrallied, SO that the result was
the same. The Babe, whose presence
seemed to shoot the chills into the
morale of the Senators, was rambling
around the lot in early practice, but
nobody suspected him to have any in
%tention of bursting into the game.
Without taking his temperature or
measuring his blood pressure, one is
led to believe that the Babe will be
days. Anyhow, he will emerge once
in a while to act as q scare crow while
Senators are with US.
