Justice Donnelly yesterday denied an
application filed by Miss Farrar's
counsel requesting that the court
compel Tellegen to state when. where
and to whom the money was paid.

Princeton's rule which prohibits ath-
ietes from participating in more than
two sports in one academic year unless

powerful interference halfback, for ex-
ample, will not be able to play basket

star. Charlie captained the undefeated
freshman basketball Ave last winter and

"Hobey" Baker is generally conceded
to have been the peer of United States
hockey players of all time, Princeton's
greatest athlete and the exemplification
of the highest type of American sports
manship. He sacrificed his life in
France for the cause of liberty and
justice. Princetonians regard the new
skating rink as an especially fitting
memorial to his name. since by means
of it they hope to return hockey at
Princeton to the same level 1t occupied
during ''Hobey's" undergraduate days.
At st. Paul's School "Hobey' Baker
was an all sihind star. but especially
brilliant in tho rink game. He started
his athletic career at Princeton In 1910
by winning the freshman football game
from Yale with a brilliant run for n
touchdown. and also starred on the
yearling hockey and baseball teams.
During the next three years he played
halfback on the football eleven, being
elected captain in his senior year. but
he was even more sensational as a mem
ber OF the Tiger hockey sextet He was
chosen captain of hockey in his junior
year but declined reelection his last
year.
