Americans Make
 Good Athletics

Oxford, Jan. 7.-Severa1 of the who came into residence at Oxford last October have made a place for themselves in athletics. AL fred K. Reese of Nebraska, now at Lincoln College, Oxford, won the shot put in the inter-college fall meet, with F. K. Brown of Washington, at Ex- eter, strong second. Three Amer jeans were semi -finalists in the Uni versity freshman tennis tournament, R. w. Shaw of New York, at Lincoln College, J. M. Clarke of Pennsylvania, at Exeter College and A. K Davis of Virginia, at Balliol. Davis beat Clarke in a very close match, the set scores being 9-11, 7-5, 6-2.
 Both play a hard court game, with very little to chose between them as to grould strokes. Davis has a little the edge on court tactics, but both are potential material for the Oxford University team Davis was defea ed in the finals by Hall, two sets to one after a very hard match.
