He Is

Detroit, Feb. 35.-Harold C"RedD Grange, All-American halfback, who made an ice wagon job famous as a conditioner for football prowess, is off the wagon" he told friends here last night. He was guest of Illinois men at an impromptu dinner while on his way from Rithmond, Mich, 10 the University of Illinois. With "Mumps' and friend, Grange plans to sea the wide open spaces along the general direction of the Old Santa Fe trail His fame as an ice man will have to rest on the last two summers, he declares.
 "Mumps," the new companion of the star Illinois halfback, is a MicAi- gan fox, of about the general color of Reds taWny hatch, given Grange while suffering from the illness re- mem bcred in the name of the new pet. "Mumps" in addition to being travelling companion, is to be the personal mascot of Grange at foot ball games next fall.

The low score game of the season was the Rule Shop and Corbin con- test. This game was featured by the very close guarding of both teams Arburr and Paris, whose work at guard has heen excellent all season, were in good form and the Rule Shoppers got but four goals from the field, two by Woodford and one each by Nichols and Walter from forward positions.
 On the other hand, the Rule Shop guards kept the fashy Corbin for wards all tied up and Schultz was the only one to score consistently and his three did not come until tho second half Jimmy Murphy kept right on Captain Jasner's heels all evening with the result that a bas- ket in each half was the Corbn leaders best. GUstafson a new com CT on the Rule Shop team, played a nice game at guard too and his floor work was also noticeable. Paris, running down from his guard posi- ton, caged two baskets in the first half, but after that he, too, was well taken care of.
 Walthcr and Grobstoin, who al- tcrnated at guard did not let Ray Hoist, the lanky Corhin center, who has been running wild of late, get set and the Corbin tap man had to he content with one basket. Later in the game Coach Ginsbcrg took him out in favor Of George HalIin In the closing minutes of the game the Corbin team was entirely sup

The South Congregational church uuintets of New Britain and Hart ford will face each other this oven- ing at the Boys club for the second time this year. A month ago the two fives met in this city and the locals pulled the game out of the fire in the closing scconds~to win by a 49-4S score, which is in the neighborhood of a record high score for a one point victory. Both teams were ham dicapped by loss of players, but some of these will be back in the lineup for tonight.
 Next Wednesday night the local South church will stack up against the Colonials of this city, while a game with the Lewis high school junior varsity Of Souihingjon is be- ing arranged for the following week. The series with the Eagles in which each team holds one victory. will probably be wound up on the week after that Games with the local Y NJ. H.

Manager Coons of the P. & F. Corbin factory league team has booked game with the Under woods of Hartford. members of the Capitol City factory league, to be played as a preliminary to the Ma tonal Guard Bristol game Saturday night.
 The Corbin outfit will be slightly handicapped by not being able to present the regular lineup since Ar burr will not be with the team. This may necessitate placing Hoist at guard. In such a case. George Hallin will go 10 forward.

 THREE NEW MARKS
Little Joie Ray Also Sets Record
 of His Own
By The Associated Press.

New York. Feb. 25.-Three world records were established last night at Madison Square Garden but Paavo Nurml. flower of Finland, had none of them.
 To Paavo's great little country man, Willie Ritola, went the cheers, for tho valiant Finish American A. c. star took upon his shoulders the burden that Nurmi was to have borne, the 5000-meter event, and es- tablished new times for the full dis tance and for three miles.
 Perhaps just to remind the Ameri- can public that he still is a runner of parts, little Joie Ray ofChicago set a mark of his own in the 10O0- meter run, a distance raced indoors for the first time. Ray conquered Willie Goodwin of the New York A. C., middle distance man who has been making rapid progress in the meets this winter.
 Nurmi ran two miles for a medi- ocre showing, his 9:14 1-5 appearing slow against previous performances although 9:20 two miles were few and far between before he came to came to America. The Finn was about r seconds behind the record he established on the same boards in the New York A. c. meet ten days ago when he startled the track world by completing the distance under nine minutes.
 One of the most interesting con tests of the meet. which furnished l funds for the building of the cathe- dral of St. John the Divine, was that | between Phil Granville, Canadian walker and Ugo Frigerio of Italy Olympic champion. Granville won calling upon a seemingly inexhaust' ible reserve whenever the Italian threatened throughout the mile and a half. On Saturday night Frigeric and Granville rubbed elbows on turn and the Canadian was disquali' fled.
 Alan Helffrich of Penn state con tinued his sensational running ant captured the half mile while willie Plant, American champion walker had little opposition in his event ant failed to set any new times.
 The new records follow;

Corhin Defeats Rule Shop 22.1O, While LOckmakerS Win From Stanley Work CTS Is to 36.

Tho Corhin Cabinet Lock five overcame an 1S-9 lead held by the Stanley Works during the first half of last nights game and in the sec ond half rompud to q 4S-SG victory over the Workers. The other fac tory league game, between the Rule Shop and the r. and F. Corbins, went to the Corbin team 22 10 lO' The most interesting thing about these Industrial league games was the fact that the total score of Si points in the first game was the highest scored thus far, while the 32 points in the second game was the lowest of the season.
 The Stanley Works started like champions and soon had run up a commanding lead. Captain Jack Pelletier, who shot in a pretty basket after 40 seconds of play, was Tn great form in the first half and his aim was uncannily accurate, he get ting no less than four field goals and an equal number from the foul line Paul LaIIar also was hitting a fast pace and dropped in three while in the second half the little Nat went even faster and tossed in four.
 After the Stanley Works team had piled up an 1S-9 lead, the Lock- makers got going and Yankaskas, Larson and Kamenicky scored in quick succession. Their field goals, plus baskets from the free line by Larson and Kamenicky tied the count at IS as the first half whistle blew.
 Phil Waither got away to flying start in the second half and got a basket after a minute or so of play and was closely followed by Carraz- ga. From then on the story chang cd. The fast stepping Stanley Work CTS slowed down with the exception of LaHar. The substitution of kall' gron for Olson at forward added two field goals, but could not stop the onrush of the Lockmen. Walther . Carrazza and Kamenicky ran wild on the floor. the first two getting four field goals and the latter three while old Chief Larson added a couple himself
 The final minutes of the game was simply a shooting orgy, with the Lockmakers registering almost al will. The summary:

Wrestling is now one of the liberal advantages of college education.
 The success of Wayne Big Mum in winning the heavyweight cham pionship of the world has fired other college athletes with the am btion to emulate him.
 Mum is a product of University of Nebraska. While a collegian he starred at tackle on the football team and was also a crack wrestler.
 Unless present plans miscarry the heavyweight wrestling title will shortly resolve itself into "Rah" "Rah" affair between Wayne Mum of Nebraska and Harry Steel of Ohio State.
 Harry Steel, Olympic champion, who once spurned a pro career for life on the farm at dear old East Sparta, O., has suffered change of mind. Steel has turned profession al Within the near future he hopes to meet Mum in a champion ship bout.
 tSecl is q graduate of Ohio State University. He went over to the Olympic games as an alternate. It was found necessary 10 use him in the heavyweight class. He re- spondcd by winning all four bouts and the championship.
 In the Olympic bouts Steel looked like the finished mat artist and was offered number of lucrative con- tracts to turn pro but refused them all Evidently the winning of the world title by Mum has caused him to believe he has a chance.
 During his college days at Ohio State he was a star athlete. For three years he was tackle on the football team. In his senior year he explained the wrestling squad that won the Western Conference title.
 Steel is six feet three inches tai and weighs 210 pounds. He has nc fear of Mum, despite the cham pOn's advantage in height anC weight.
 The wrestling game. in disfavo for years, bids fair 10 do | come back. The victory of Mum. break ing the wrestling trust that ha practically controlled the sport, i certain to be a big help.
 Baseball was improved by th entry of the college star into th , professional ranks, wrestling is ccr ; tain to profit in the same manner. Men of the calibre Of Wayn
 Mum and Harry Steel are crodi 10 any sport. Mum as champio [ and Steel as contender gives q col lcge flavor 10 what may be a cham . pionship bout of the near future. The experts who regarded Muun } victory over Lewis in the nature ( } q fuke have already changed thei { opinion Even the cx-champioI
 Srangler Lewis, has but kind word
 to say of his conqucror.

WANTS LOW SALARIES
Graduate Manager of Athletics at U. of P. Also Thinks Coaches Are Paid Too Highly.

Philadelphia. Feb. 25. - Ernest Cozens, graduate manager of ath- letics at the University of Pennsyl- vania, is in favor of the reported movement of Harvard, Yale and Princeton against thigh salaried coaches.
 T think the idea behind the move to enable the smaller colleges to compete on an equal basis with the larger is a good one," Couzens said today. Tt is perfectly natural that the larger colleges, having more means to employ the best coaches, enjoy an advantage.
 As far as Pennsylvania is con- cerned, the footbal coaches have been confined exclusively to former Pennsylvania players and the uni versity never has entered the bid ding for an outside coach, This poll icy, I am sure, will never be changed"
 MT. Cozcns said the salary paid football coaches often was greatly exaggerated and he doubted whether more than half dozen college foot ball coaches received more thar SS,0O0 year.

 Occupy Tennis Kings Time
By The Associated Press.

By The ASboCihteu
 New York, Feb. 25.-Wllliam T. Tilden, king of nearly all he has surveyed in the tennis world over inc past five years, occupies-hke Jack Dempsey-a position where varied outside interests may aitecI his 1925 campaign. Although vic- torious in his fight to remove any question of professionalism rom player-writing, Tilden still faces some kinks in his status as result of newspaper work, in addition 10 which he is devoting more time than before to motion pictures and the drama. -.
 All things considered, however, Tnden Is expected not only to at tempt to carry off the American tennis crown for the sixth straight year but again form main line in the Davis cup defense. In the thick of another fray, the tall Philadel- milan will be favorite to emerge again at the top, In spite or such obstacles in his path as the veteran William NJ. Johnson. always for- midabe foe, and the dynamic young star, Vincent Richards, who looms as Tilden's most dangerous rival. Richards gave the champion ms stiffest battle in 1924 and if he i'm proves as much this year as he did last, may reach the peak. These three again dominate the field, though a formidable crop of young talent is coming forward rapidly. The champion already has gotten off 10 a characteristic start with two in- door tournament victories 10 his credit.
 Tilden's racquet wizardry is the product of one of the most versatile characters that ever invaded the sphere of sport. He has fought his way to the top and held it against all attacks by remarkable con- bination of concentration. confidence and tireless physique. He has an uncanny ability to pull himself out of the most thfeatening situations, His amazing battery of shots is at it's best under fire and his knowledge of psychology has helped him many a time 10 conquer an opponent Few keener students of the game have ever trod the courts than the 3e-year- -old titleholder.
 Tilden fNt won the nationa singles crown in 1920, after twice being runner-up. Since then ht has held nearly every importan title here and abroad, including worlds championship victories a
 Wimbledon in 1921 and 1922. H, and Johnston brought the Davis cup emblem of team supremacy, bacl

 competition, Tilden has never lost ; singles match. His consistent su
 premacy has had few parallels il sportdom.
