Vincent Richards Defeats
Anderson I'm Indoor Match

Richards saved the day with wonder
ful back hand balfvolley across fore
court.
Richards Takes Opener, 9~-6
Again in the eleventh game Andcr-
son "as only point removed from
winning the set. but nctted vollcying
shot gave the point to Richards, who
then Won the next two for the game.
The Junior wizard then took the next
two games, giving him the set at St
and Il lead that he held to the end.
The second set saw Anderson max
ing desperate efforts to turn the tide
but his eagerness to score led him into
errors, and Richards frequently caught
him out of position by trap shots, and
once by a daring lob that sailed up
close to the roof top and then landed
within two inches Of the base line
with Anderson marooned at the service
court line.
The indoor champion never relaxed
in his high-speed hitting, however, and
when he held control sent over shots
That Richards at times could not even
intercept. Several times he won the
point by sticking the ball directly at
Richards's feet, but the latter fire.
quently drew applause by taking these
shots on the half-vollev and turning
them into earning shots for himself
After holding the lead throughout the
second set, Richards finished matters
IN the ninth game, thus winning the

Weigh Throwing
Added to College
Indoor Athletics

At meeting Of the I. G.. A. A. A. A.
executive and advisory committee held
yesterday afternoon at the Columbia
Club the events to be decided at the
indoor intercollegiate track and field
champ pionships were announced The
title meet, which Will be the first of it's
kind held in several years, will take
place at the 22d Regiment Armory
March II.
1t also was decided to add one field
event, thirty five pound weight throw
ing contest for distance, this being a
departure from the rule in previous
meets which prohibit weight throw
ing events at indoor meets The rest
of the card will be as follows: 7O-yard
DASH Co. yard high hurdle, one and two
mile run, high jump, broad jump, 10
pound shot-put, .ne~milc medley relay
for freshmen and one and lie
senior relays.
The freshman relay is an innovation
which the committee believes will at
tract a large entry. Colleges will be
allowed to enter only ono team in each
of the relay events, and the system Of
scoring will be the same as is used by
the association for the outdoor meets,
namely, ), 4, 8, and 1.
1t Is planned to lay board track
over the floor at the armory, using
banked turns, thus allowing the ath-
letes to don their spiked shoes. I'm
doubtedly this viii make for faster time
in all the track events

Prospects Bright at Yale
Both Yale and Harvard, particularly
the former, will begin indoor work this
week with far brighter prospects than
they enjoyed year ago The dissen-
sion and disorganization caused at
Yale last spring by i'll feeling between
the varsity oarsmen and Guy Nickals,
the head coach, was a handicap that
kept the Blue crew in the background
until Nickals resigned and was sue
ceeded by jim Corderry, who is now
IN charge. The eight then went out
and defeated Harvard over the four
mile Thames course in the second fast
est time in which the distance had
ever been rowed
Langhorne Gibson, captain of this
years crew, is cooperating with Cor
derry in an effort to make Yale a real
factor in the coming campaign.
The situation at Harvard is still
rather indefinite. but it is safe to say
that out of the big squad that will
take to the indoor machine this week a
crew will be developed which will leave
better record behind it than did the
melancholy combination Of 1921. Las
years boat managed to win only one
race, and that was from the rather
obscure Massachusetts Institute of
Technology.
Robert +. Herrick, chairman of the
graduate advisory committee at Har-
ward, who recently has returned from,
China, will probably act as head coach
this season, with Bill Haincs in the
capacity of first assistant.

Brilliant Volleying Wins
for Junior Champion on

Considering the fact that tho space
in the incloscd roof garden does not
permit of court of the regulation

to the topped roof abut squarely
on the side lines, the quality of tennis
shown by Richards and Anderson was
particularly good.
1t was stated at the Ritz yesterday
that plans have been made to eliminate
the pillars, thus giving ample room for
a standard court. Should this be done,
tennis playing on the roof will be lit

Cargan Arranging g
Long Track Season
For Fordhanl Team

When Frank Gargan was appointed
graduate manager of Fordhan athletics
about five weeks ago one OF the first
promises to the Maroon crgraduatcs
was that he would do all in his power
to rejuvenatc the track situation at the
university. Gargan stated that the
present low standing of the Maroon
could and would be raised TO a much
higher standard. He promised that all
track men who won first place in a
varsity event would be awarded the
same letter that has heretofore been
given only to baseball and football
candidates.
True to his promise, Garsan has
brought about the much needed
changes with regard to track affairs.
which for the first time in years are
on a sound footing. The number Of
candidates is very close 10 the two
score mark. Relay teams and indi-
vidual competitors have been entered
in about half a dozen indoor meets,
with others still pending. Arrange
ments have already been closed for
several dual meets in the spring while
Harold Horton. student manager, Is
angling for several more. The cross
country shapes up very we'll and will
undoubtedly make very credltable
showing in competition with rival
teams.
According to present arrangements,
the Maroon will make its first appear
ance Of the year at the games in this
city of the Osceola A. A. on January
Ia. From then on till the close of the
indoor season the BronXites will be
seen quite often, as Jake Weber has
entered his men in the games Of the
Norningsde A G.. the MiIlrosc A. A.,
the Boston a. A.. in the senior indoor
track and field championship games
and in the Wilco A. A. meet. In the
spring, if the pending arrangements
arc carried through, dual meets will
be lad with City College. Holy Cross

Michigan was given new lease of
life by Governor Groesbeck to-day,

more championship prizefights or big
opcn-air exhibitions, such as were held
in Benton lIarbor last year, will be
sanctioned.
The Governor made il clear that the

DahIen Is Nearest
To Ideal Mfelder

IT WAS bad Bill" who was con-
sidered the nearest to perfect
infielder the game ever had Dahlcn
possessed wonderful nerve and
never flinched before the swiftest
liner or twisting grounder.
Dahlen was great batsman as
we'll as wonderful inficlder. 1t
was on June 20, 1894, that Bill Dah-
len. star shortstop of the Chicago
Nationals, went on a batting spree
which lasted forty-two days, and
not a hurler in the big twelve-club
circuit that comprised the National
League those days could stop the
dash that bad Bill' was indulgiug
in.
Dahlen's run of forty-two games
wherein he hit safely has the rec
ord of Ty Cobb faded. Billy kecler
is credited with hitting safely in
forty-four consecutive games in the
season of 1897.
