 AGAIN IN LEAD
Quakers' Victory Over Dartmouth
 Breaks Three-.CorDered Tic

New York, Feb. Pennsylvania has regaincd the lead in the Intcrco,- legiate basketball league. After hav- ing been drawn into three -cornered tie by losing to Cornell. inc Quaker. turned around last week ana smash. I'd the triple grip on first place by de- featlng Dartmouth. The Green, Princeton and Penn were the three teams that had been perchcd at the top of the heap, but now the Phla- delphians have won four of taelr Ave games Princeton did not play, but was topped into second place With three games won and one lost by Penn's triumph over Dartmouth.
 All three of these teams win be in action this week. Dartmouth is scheduled to play two league games. meeting Columbia in this city tonight and graphing with Cornell at Han- over on Saturday night. On Wednes- day. Princeton will entertain Yale at Tigertown, and or Saturday. Colum- bia will journey 10 Philadelphia to try to upset Penn. Thus some very inter- csting developments may be expected.
 PulIeyn Still Leads
 Tn spite of the fact that Columbia did not engage ir any league games during the week, and Pullyn was pre- vented from adding 10 his individual score. the right guard Of the Morn ingside Heights institution held his place at the top with q total of 5D points the result of ton goals from foul. But Fulleyn's lead was cut to the scant margin of one point, with three other players snapping at his heels with 5S points each. They are Grave of Pennsylvania, Cullen of Dartmouth and Luther of Cornell. With all six league teams playing this week changes in the individual stand ing of the players may be expected.
 It is an Interesting fact that the leaders are holding their places by virtue of their ability to basket the ball on free throws. Grave of Penn sylvania leads in the number of goals from the field made with q total of 1 and Luther of Cornell is second with n. Of the first four men, Grave has made the least free throws, to- tai of 26. Pulleyn. in first place, has 39; Cullen has made 42 of his 5S points in this manner, making but goals from the field, and Luther has made 36 foul shots.
 The standing of the teams is as fol-

AMERICAN ATHLETES
 LEAD IN RECORDS
Best Time and Distance in S7
 Contests is Held in US.

New York, Feb. 20 (}y Associated Press) )--The athletes of the United States lead the world as holders of track and field records. An analysis Of the latest list of worlds records accepted by the international amateur athletic federation shows that out of some 20 odd standard events the best time or distance has been made by American athletes in 37 contests. This number which is a trihe more than one-third of the entire list of accepted records. is also greater than the com bined total of any two other nations.
 Britons Are Next.
 Americas nearest competitor for the honor of leading the world in the matter of record holders is Great Britain whose athletes have marked up the best time or distance in twenty eight events. Denmark and Finland are tied for third place with seven records each. No other nation ap- breaches the versatility of the Ameri- can athlete for the United States per formers have established in six out of the seven groups of competition into which the worlds record events naturally divide themselves.
 Best Walkers Abroad.
 This country is without a record holder in the walking events in which Great Britain and Finland hold all the records. America is tied with Great Britain in the running records each nation having l3 to it's credit. The United States holders are confined to the sprints and the shorter distance runs. Great Britain's stars hold a majority of the long distance running records.
 These records as published in the official athletic almanac were formally adopted at the conference of the I. A. A. c. last May.
 Some Marks Not Accepted. el
 Since that meeting several Ameri- can and foreign athletes have bet tered records now listed but these cannot be officially considered worlds records until accepted by the l. A. A. c. which acceptance may be delayed another six months or year. Such an example is that of the running broad jump record credited to P. | O'Connor of Ireland, with a leap of "A feet 11A inches made in 1901. This record was surpassed last July when F. O. Gourdin of Harvard | jumped 25 feet, 3 inches, in the dual meet between Oxford Cambridge vs. | Yale Harvard at Cambridge.
 Taking the records as they appear in the latest official list, however it is shown that the American athlete is better in more events in the record | list than any one other nationality. Every record from 100 yards to one n.le is held by United States athlete. From two to 25 miles English run lers hold sway although most of these imes were made in the early 9Os. In metric running records Finland, Swe- len and France hold all but the prints which go to American athletes. records are held by pedes- rians of Great Britain, Canada and Denmark.

 Big Crowd on Hand
 One of the greatest crowds that has ever witnessed n game in this city. was on hand for the fray. and before 7:45 o'clock every bit of good space was filled, Herbert Sauter, who had charge of selling the tickets early in the evening, reports that the first two sales for the game were made at just 6:15 o'clock. and the purchasers en- tered the hall promptly after buying the pastehoards. The crowd included many other out-of-town folks besides those from Hartford.
 Best Team Won
 Getting down to the game it is only fair to say that the best team won. The visitors showed q splendid de- fense, by Leonard Guerra and Flynn. The work of Tim Cronin and Dwyer was all that the rooters of the Hart ford team could ask for. The New Britain team was able to register but five field goals during the fray, while Hartford dropped in 12 double count CTS. Cronin had a fine night tossing 'em from the foul line, getting eight out of ? tries into the basket. John- ny Sheehan was the chief pointmaker for the losers. scoring 12 fouls out of 19 tries. "Snowshoes" did not get a goal from the field. Tommy Reynolds came up from New York for the game, but he was watched so closely by Flynn, that he registered but one field goals.
 The Game Opens
 The roar that accompanied the sound of Referee Dillon's whistle for the start of hostiltes fairly shook the building. Restella brought the crowd 10 it's feet by shot from the center of the floor that dropped cleanly through the draperies Dwyer a later even up the score with | neat field goals. After Sheehan had | scored a foul goal, the Hartford team umped into the lead of 9 to 3 mainly through the wonderful work of Tronn. However. the locals got go- ng, field goals by Reynolds Kilduff Ind Restella along with seven foul goals by Sheehan brought the home cam to within two points of the visi ,ors at intermission.
