Lehigh Opposes System
OF Scoring i'm Wrestling

BETHLEHEM, Pa, Feb. 19.--Con-
tending that the point scoring system
employed in intercollegiate wrestling
this season is somewhat unfair to the
grappler, strong opposition is regis
tered at Lehigh University against the
system. 1t is also likely that moVe-
ment will be started here to 20 back
to the former system where only one
point difference is credited between
fall and decision.
The majority of the captains OF inc
mat squads composing the intercoI-
legiate wrestling association are op-
posed to the scoring employed thi -
season, 1t is admitted that lall
brings out a decisive victory, but IN .
good many cases it hardly brings ou'
the merits of the wrestlers,
As an illustration reference is MADE
here to the Lehigh and Columbia mee.'
In the 158-pound class Eddie Loeset'
Lehigh. scored a fall with apparent
ease in less than two minutes Of graz
ping and for the victory was crediVeo
with five points. n
However, the cleverest wrestling, anu
a bout calling for the best efforts q
both entries, was the 145-pound nsvs
between Captain Bertolet, Lehigh, ana
Captain PAUL., Columbia. In this boa'
both contestants were compelled to e..

PHILADELPHIA, Feb. 19.-Denys,
the sensational French distance run
ner, will oppose some of Americas
fastest college athletes in a two-mile
race at the University of Pennsyl-
vania relay carnival at Franklin Field

George w. Orion, manager of the
games, announced to-day that two
mile event had been added to the pro-
gram and that all the great college
distance runners of the country would
be invited to compete against Denys,
for whose benefit the race was put on.
Nightingale, who defeated Montague,
of Oxford, in three-mile race at last
years carnival, probably will be among
the entrants in the two-mile event,
which will be held April 20, the first
day Of the meet.
The announcement also was made
that France would send a relay team

Army Quintet Will
Make First Visit
To Annapolis Court

WEST POINT, N. Y. Feb. 49,
Army's basketball squad will Journey
to Annapolis next week to meet the
Navy on the court 1t is the first
meeting between the service teams in
basketball to take place at the Naval
Academy. Last year the NAVY came
here for game and won. Like the
football and baseball games between
the Army and Navy, the contest will
De an annual event and will oe played
under homeland home agreement.
The followers of the Army five are
not over-optimistic as to the West
Pointers chances during the clash
next Saturday. The Army has fair
~ good team, it is felt here, but it has
been rather erratic at times. Out of
eighteen games played the Army has
fourteen victories to it's credit, losing
tc Columbia in New York early in De-
cember and also having been beaten
at home by New York University,
SSwarthmore and University Of Pitts
burgh.
Union, Trinity and Brown will be
met during the week prior to the Navy
battle, and 1T is felt these games will
serve to help put the soIiiers on edge
for the contest at Annapolis. Brook
Ign Poly, Cornell, City College, North
Carolina and Wesleyan are among the
strongest of the Army's opponents who
have succumbed to the soldiers. The
game with the Navy will wind up the
West Pointers season. The squad
will leave here for Annapolis on Fri
day morning.

Back This Season


NEW HAVEN, Conn, Feb. 19.-Yale's
varsity rowing squad has been organ
ICED for the season by Captain Steve
Hord, who to-day announced the re ult
of his canvass. Hord himself is the
only member of the varsity eight
which rowed the four-mile race against
Harvard last year. Coxswain Bob
Carson is still in college, but is cap
tain of the hockey team. He will be
available to handle the rudder again
when the oarsmen begin their outdoor
rowing.
Two Of the most prominent members
of the crew have just left the squad
G. S. Ellis and j. F. Buckley. Ellis
rowed regularly at No. last year and
was certain of being found there again
this season. Buckley was one of the
most certain members of the freshman
eight of last year. Both these two
rowers have been caught in the semi
annual scholarship net, which was
spread by the university faculty for
the unwary the past fortnight, and
both have left college

the members of the second varsity
eight, of last year have shown excsp-
tional promise the last week. These
include Ward Cheney, stroke, VIII is

Navy Men Dispute
Swim Title Claim
Advanced by Yale
From, a Special Correspondent

ANNAPOLIS, Md, Feb. 19.-Receut
published statements from New Haven
to the effect that the Yale swimming
team has no serious rivals for inter-
collegiate honors this year are contro-
verified here. 1t is insisted that the
Naval Academy has a better team, ac-
cording to the actual record of per-
formances, and probably would win
from Yale in match of regular in
tercolegiate events.
Unfortunately, the teams will not
meet this year. Last year Yale was
regarded as the champion, and the
Navy was inclined TO concede it,
though the midshipmen won all seven
Of their matches. Every effort was
made to secure match with the Yale
swimmers, but the management at New
Ravens showed no interest in the mat
ter.
There appears to be no doubt of the
ability of Sinclair, the Academy's
swimming wonder, to win from any
college man in races of from 100 to
220 yards. Yale's champion at the
longer distance is Marshall, who has
done the course in 2:32, and who, &C.
cording to the Yale correspondent, sis
apt to break the recent intercollegiate
record of 1929 established by Sinclair.
Of the Naval Academy" Since that
performance Sinclair has cut the figure
twice-to 1927 As against Pittsburgh
and to 2:25 is against Columbia.
In practice Sinclair has done the
hundred in IS 2-5 seconds, and his eff
fort from now on will be to establish
q record in competition better than the
56 20 seconds, the intercollegiate rec
ord, now held by Vollmer, .Columbia's
crack of few years ago. Emory, the
captain of the team, has done the dis
lance in exactly the latter time. Jel-
Line, Yale's best man at the distance.
has not done better than 81 1-5 seconds.
Though Yale has a marvellous relay
team for 200 or $50 yards, with four or
hve swimmers, the Navy appears to
have the edge in this event also. Yale's
best time for the 200 is lao As, while
the Navy four has done the 160-yard
in 1916 4-5 seconds, more than three
seconds better than the intercollegiate
record. Again calculated time shows
the performance of the Navy swim
mers to be a little better.
It may be explained that the Navy
pool is twenty yards across and that Of
Yale twenty-five, so that the teams are
used. as q rule, to swimming in null
tiples Of those figures, making an exact
comparison difficult. By next season
the midshipmen will have the use of q
splendid new pool, with dimensions for
the course at either distance.
Two events are conceded to Yale.
These are the distance plunge, in which
the Naval Academy has never made
much of showing, and the fancy div
ing, which it has never taken up, owing
to the full use made of the pool every
afternoon. On the other hand, the
Academy has great breast stroke
swimmer in Quinby and an unusually
fine back swimmer in Mcintosh. These
events are not on the program of the
Intercollegiate Swimming Association,
but are included in the Western Con-
ference matches.

Penn State Coach
Suggests Change
In Wrestling Rules
Special Correspondence Of The Tribune

CptC'ut Correspondence Or me IffORhS
STATE COLLEGE, Pa, Feb !9.--The
discussion now going on concerning the
method of scoring intercollegiate
wrestling bouts has finally caused
Coach ". E. Lewis Of the Penn State
grapplers to come to bat with little
suggestion of his own. Lewis believes
that the system of counting FIVE points
for fall and three for decision Is
all right, but he is unalterably opposed
to the present method Of awarding de-
cisions.
Under the present rules the stop
watch is the only factor in the render
ing of a decision, the man having the
margin of time advantage being the
winner, even though he may have held
his upper position by playing it safe
and refusing to try for fall. The
other man may have forced the fighting
all the way, taken all of the chances
and then been defeated by the watch,
Coach Lewis believes that at the
most the watch should be but an aid to
the referee in rendering his decision,
and that the old method of picking the
winner on form and responsiveness is
far better. If better method of rem
dering decisions could be drawn up the
Penn State coach would be willing to
return to the old scoring system of
four points for a decision, but under
present arrangements he favors the
five and three rule.
In commenting on the present scor-
ing system Lewis points out that the
object in the change was to eliminate
"stalling" by making two falls count
more than would three decisions. That
1t is accomplishing it's purpose was
shown in the meet between Penn State
and Lehigh last week, when of the six
bouts won by State five of them were
on falls. The present method gives
more OF an incentive to work for falls
and thus adds to the interest in the
bouts.
