RIVALS DISTANCED
 AS RAY STEPS OUT
Joie Runs Fin Breathless in
 Wanamaker Cup Contest

New York, Jan. 31.-With the l cheers of crowd of about 12,000 ex- | cited athletic fans ringing in his ears, Joie w. Ray. redoubtable Illinois A.
 c. middle distance runner, flashed his
 flying heels in the faces of three rivals
 last night in the Rodman Wanamaker
 one and half mile special run, one
 of the many features of the Millrose
 A. A. indoor athletic meet in Madi-
 son Square Garden.
 The trim little Kankakee lad, one of
 a field of ten seekers after the valu- able trophy offered in this race, liter ally ran his rivals into the ground in a race which lost it's promise of a spectacular test after the first half
 mile was covered and developed into a fruitless pursuit. Ray broke the tape in 6:4S 4-5, seven seconds slower than the record he himself establish ed in winning this event last year.
 Training Ray by 40 yards was Ray Buker, a club mate of the middle dis tance star, who went down in defeat after valiant but futile chase of the fleet footed Ray. A like distance back of Buker came R. F.. Brown of the Boston A. A. and in third position. Walter E. Maunz of Syracuse Univer- sity, the only surviving member of the field, finished a poor fourth, com pletely run out
 It was the seventh triumph of Ray in this local board floor classic and gave him his first leg on a new trophy tho third which has been offered in competition for the test Ray won the previous two trophies outright through victories in 1917, 1918, 1919, 1920, 1922 and 1928. More than that, however, this latest victory of the Kankakee flier was a rebuttal to those who said that the Joie Ray, who has electrified America's followers with his exploits on the cinderpath and broad floor for the past decade or so, was on the down-grade. Rays rivals last night represented Americas best in middle distance running, but there was not a member of the original field of ten who possessed enough ability to make Ray extend himself. The wearer of the tri-color simply ran away from his rivals after six and one-half laps had been covered and there was nothing to it but Ray. One by ono ambitious runners dropped out of the race under the st rain of the futile chase of the little blond runner who sped over the board track at undiminishing speed from the time he went into inc lead.

NEW BRITAIN FIVE
 | BEATEN BY DYKES
Lose Out in Last Few Minutes Of
 Game, SS-27

After playing on even terms prac- tically throughout the entire two per iods, the All-New Britain five lost to the Dixie outfit at the Hopkins street gymnasium, Hartford, last night, score SS to a7.
 The game was hard fought from the first to the last whistle and an over- time period of five minutes was re- quired to reach a verdict When Ref cree Dick Dillon blew the whistle ending the first half, the score stood 12 to II in the Dixie clubs favor. Each team had landed four field goals, but the Dixie throws from the free try line had netted four addi- tional points against New Britain's three, placing the Hartford club with one point advantage.
 The Dixies showed a spurt al the opening of the second session and were well into the lead when the locals began to pile up points. With less than two minutes to play and with the score 24 to 23 in the Hart ford five's favor, the locals landed field goal that put them in the lead. ''Mert' Taylor then fouled Murphy and, with nine seconds to go, Hart ford evened the score from the free try line. When the whistle blew, the score was tied. In the overtime period Wojack was the only member of the local team to score, while Hartford registered four field goals.
 The score:

Western Elves Stronger
 Than Eastern Opponents

Chicago, Jan. 31.-On the basis of early-season scores. 1t would appear that the Western Conference univer- sities have it all over their big eastern opponents in basketball.
 The University of Pennsylvania and Ohio State met on n neutral floor in Cleveland. and the Quakers, who for years have held place in the sun in eastern cage circles, took an awful drubblng. The ambitious Ohio Staters then took on Yale and punished the wearers of the Blue soundly
 Then along came Purdue and wal loped Onto State; Illinois did like wise. After which Purdue was beaten by Iowa, and Illinois, already defeated by Minnesota, took last minute 2i-2S beating at the hands of Michi- gan.
 The only conclusion is that some sort Of booby prize goes 10 Yale and Penn.

TANKS GIVE NEW ORLEANS
 AIR AS TRAINING PLACE
Balmy Air of Florida Appeals to
 Owners Who Decide to
Move

New York, Jan. 31.-The Yankees have decided to abandon New Orleans as a spring training camp after this spring and to settle down permanently in some spot in Florida. St. Peters burg. where the Braves are now train ing, probably will be the town, and both Miller Higgins and Ed Barrow are heartily in favor of that munich palnty.
 Higgins, who is spending the winter in St. Petersburg. was so impressed by the charms Of the west coast city that he sat right down and wrote letter to New York headquarters uring St. Petersburg as the next training site of the Tanks. When this letter WAS received yesterday Ed Barrow echoed Huggins's suggestion, and with these two potentates now behind the movement to St, Petersburg. it looks as if Colonel Jacob Ruppert will be outvoted in the club councils.
 Barrow said that it practically has been decided to leave New Orleans at the first opportune moment and to es- tablish a permanent" camp in Flori- da.
 The Tanks are going into New Or leans this spring under protest. None of the club officials are in love with the Crescent City. but baseball super stition is such that nobody felt like abandoning New Orleans after the Tanks had won-two pennants and a worlds championship there. If St. An tonic had not bee so isolated and if the Giants had not been there before them, the Tanks might have gone to the Alamo city. But now they are 'sold" on Florida, which is rapidly getting a monopoly on the spring training business.

CURLING STONE PUZZLES
 SWISS FRONTIER GUARDS

Chamonix, Jan. 31.-(By As sociated Press)-A Scotch mem Der of the English curling team on his way to Chamonix from Davos, Switzerland, was halted at the Swiss frontier by French customs employees who were puzzled by his curling stone.
 The Frenchmen first consult ed the dictionary. Then the of- ficial in charge insisted upon charging the Scot a tariff on the ground that he was bringing "a precious stone" into the coun- try. The athletes explanation, delivered in voluble brogue, only thickened the difficulties.
 Finally the station master was appealed to and upon his rec concentrations the stone was ad- mitted free.
 "The Frenchman had the cor rect classification at that" the Scot volunteered at the conclu- sion of the Franco British match which he was instru- mental in winning. Tapping his implement fondly, he added: "'Tis a precious stone. Indeed, there's no so precious to me-"
