Especial to the Kennebec JOurnaD

Especial to the kennebec journal
Waterville, Nov. 24.-The stitfest
game of the interclass games was
played yesterday afternoon in the
Coburn Gym. between the Sophomores
and the Freshmen, in which the Soph-
ignores gained honors over their I'M
derclass lassies. The game was the
closest played thus far and IL was
either teams game until the last mo-
ments of play, when the Sophomores
came back strong and trimmed the
Freshmen by s to 2.
/, The star of the game was Miss
Daye, who Gagged three baskets for her
team and played an excellent all
around game for the winners OF the
day. B, Simmons of the Sophomores,
a running mate for Miss Daye, showed
up well, caging the other basket Tor
team. The former will make DID
for the varsity team and her chances
are very promising as she has shown
I'D we'll all through the interclass
games thus far. Much interest is
shown by the students in attending

CAPABLE BALL
CARRIERS WILL
meet SATURDAY

New York, Nov. 24.-(AP)-Indi-
viduals who have gained recognition
for exceptional ball-toting feats on
eastern gridirons this season will be
pitted against each other in the
Thanksgiving Day battles.
Eddie Tryon of Colgate, the East's
leading scorer. and captain OF an
undefeated team, faces an opponent
of calibre in Jackson Keefer OF
Brown at the new stadium in Provi-
dence. keefer has worked through
out the schedule behind line weak
ened by injuries and the same situa-
ton is. promised for the coming
game.
Talbot and Vollbracht, tackles, are
in poor condition and injuries have
hit Jones, the big fullback. Keefer,
also is suffering from bruises but
intends TO play throughout the Col
gate. contest. He ran 30 yards for
a touchdown against Yale and his
work against Dartmouth put Brown
into scoring position where a touch
down was lost when an end was
beside.
At the Polo Grounds in New York,
Harlan Carr of Syracuse, third
among the eastern scorers, will meet
the fiashy George Pease, Columbia
captain. Syracuse is a slight favor
lite in this game. but must reckon
with the speedy Columbia quarter
back, who has been creating history
since returning to the fray after an
early season injury.
Another individual test, that be-
tween Emerson Carey of Cornell,
and Al Kreuz of Pennsylvania at
Philadelphia, has been set aside by
injuries If they are able to play
there should be brilliant kicking
duel. Kreuz left for Absecon, N. j.,
with the team yesterday. Singer,
Penn end. remained behind for treat
ment to an injured ankle.
Pittsburgh and Penn State go into

Red SOx Must Pay
Belated Tax on
Ruth and Mays Deal

Washington, Nov. 24-(AP)-The
baseball deal by which Babe Ruth
and Carl Mays were sold by the
Boston Red SoX several years ago to
the New York Yankees, had an echo
today in decision of the board of
tax appeals, which held that the
Boston club must pay an additional
27,575.09 income tax on profits of
the sale.
The $4,000 paid for the two play
ers fell due over three year period
and the Boston club contended that
the profit should be taxed in install
ments over the three years, thus re-
ducing the net rate of tax levied.
The tax board held otherwise, up
holding the internal revenue bureau.
