PEQUOTS WIN FROM
 WEST SIDE RESERVES
Defeat Hartford Team, 17-12, in Preliminary to West Side-Lyric
 Encounter--Landino Stars,

The Pequots of this city travelled to Hartford last night and QcLeaIed the West Side Reserves to the tune Of 1I-l2 ln preliminary 10 the West Side-LyrlC game at the Hop kins street gym.

Landino sank another from the floor. The half ended with the Pequots leading, to ,.
 The second half started with AL pert sinking one from the floor. Levy followed with a point from the 15-foot line. Hewitt, replacing Mo- rey, made his presence known by dropping in two from the floor Landlno came back to drop in a pair of fouls. The West Sides never took the lead throughout the game
 The Pcquot guards, Levy and Reid, played a wonderful game holding their men to a lone field goal between. them. The forwards, Landino, Hewitt and Mercy, did well and outwitted their guards Albert put up a good battle at cen ter. For the West Side Reserves, Pratt and Sinnott played well. The score,

Grange's Record
Itz1 Minutes Yards Touch,

While Grange didn't gain quite as many yards this year as last he made one more touchdown, despite the fact that he played less actual time.
 During the 1924 season Grange carried the ball IA times and made 1164 yards, an average of a trife better than ID yards every time he tucked the ball under his arm.
 Grange's greatest performance of the year was against Michigan. when he made four touchdowns in the first l2 minutes of play,
 Michigan expected to beat Illinois, yet at the end of the first period the Wolverines were trailing 27 to 0. be- cause of Oranges remarkable open field running.
 Against Chicago he came through with another super-man effort. This time Grange came from behind to tie Chicago.
 ! In 30 tries against the Big Ten champions he gained 30S yards, a most remarkable achievement. { Figures definitely prove Grange, ! right to be classed as the individual football champion of the year.

New York, Jan. 23.-New York citv will be asked to build ten-lap running track at some easily access sible point ln order that any embryo "Nurmis' lurking about the city may be discovered.
 The first definite step in this de- velopment of amateur competition in the United States, as advocated by the new president of the Amateur Athletic Union, Murray Hubert ws taken last night when the develop ment commute of the metropolitan association voted to petition the city for the immediate construction of a track at an expense estimated at .$1400.
 The A. A. '. stands ready to fur nish coaches and pay all other eX- penses. Any youth, whether atfiliat- ed with an athletic club or not, would be permitted free use of the facilities under the present program.

ALTROCK OFFICIAL
 COACH THIS YEAR
Famous Baseball Comedian No
 Longer a ''Player''
By The Assvcsated Press,

By Tho Assvuiated Press.
 New York, Jan. 23.-Nick Altrock. baseball's inimitable. has made his last three-base hit, but he will con- tinue to do foolish things on the field. True, other players have done foolish things. but Altrock does them Intentionally.
 Washington's official roster for 1925 shows that the great imitator of Cleopatra, Luis Angel Ffrpo, Johnny Weissmuller and John Philip Sousa has been delegated to the po- sition of coach where previously he had been a player. Altrock batted for 1000 in the season of 1924 when he hit for three bases in Washing tons last game against the Red Sox. The Boston outflelders, bent upon allowing Nick to score a home run, failed to field the ball slow enough. for the comedian sat down at third base and refused to continue to the plate.
 Nick had every reason to believe that he would be one of the regular pitching staff during the coming sea- son, when he saw such names as Vean Gregg and Stanley Coveleskie added to the roster, and he imme- diately entered period Of severe training on the basketball court with team touring the east. Of course, he did not play, but he travelled with the players, and indulged in phantom baseball, football and box ing for the edi1cation of the crowds.
 He really felt that he was young enough--he is only 44--to rejoin a regular pitching staff, although he was a star lefthander in the days when Frank Isbell was pounding out two-base hits for the White sox, then known as the ""hitless wonders" |" About that time Freddy Lindstrom. the youth who accomplished im- mense things for the Giants in the late world series, was born.
 Al Schacht, who made an attempt at a pitching comeback with New Haven Of the Eastern league last season, will be Altrock's chief assist ant, if he needs one, as coach for the Washington club and Manager Stanley Harris will have room for a younger player to aid him in his ef- forts to capture another world pen- nant,

NO '.DLRTY" TEAM W CITY
 LEAGUE, ANALYSIS PROVES
POUGHKEEPSIE ID
 BE 1 MILF EVENT
Annual Regatta heightened to
 Pre,War Distance

New York, Jan. 23.-The struggle for thls years intercollegiate varsity rowing championship, blue ribbon event of the annual Poughkeepsie regatta. will be contested over a course of four miles for the first time since 1916.
 Fixing Monday, June 22, as the date for the regatta, the board of stewards of the International Row ing association decided at their an nual meeting yesterday to lengthen the distance of the varsity event which sine the war has been rowed once at two miles, on Lake Cayuga, and four times at three miles on the Hudson at Poughkeepsie.
 The chance which Is the culmina- ton of several years agitation to return to the longer distance that prevailed from 1895 to 1916 with the exception of one year, was not ac- complished without keen debate, however. The final vote on the issue was three to one, with Columbia, Pennsylvania and Syracuse voting for four miles while Cornell, de- spite the fact that it has not won a varsity race since shorter races were inaugurated, held out for the three mile distance.
 The decision came as somewhat of "a surprise as Columbia, only out spoken advocate of the four mile race for the past few years, was still believed to be largely alone in its stand. Two years ago, Syracuse sup ported Columbia for a time but f. nally voted with Cornell and Penn sylvania to keep the shorter race.

JOE RAYS COACH STILL
 THINKS HE CAV BEAT HlNN
John F. Mahan Expresses
 Confidence That Chicago
 Flier Will Show His
 Heels to Nurmi.

Chicago, Jan. 23.--Confidence that Joie Ray. Illinois A. c. middle dis- tance star. whose records of years standing have been absorbed by Paavo Nurmi. the Finn. can outrun the fleet invader in their coming races in the east has been expressed by John r. Mahan. the coach who discovered and developed the din,ip- utive Chicago ace. r
 During the next two weeks Ray meets Nurmi in a three quarter mile race at the Millrose games and in the famous Hunter mile at the Bos- ton A. A. Ray has won the Boston event for the past six years.
 When Nurmi next meets Ray he will get the surprise of his life," said Mahan.
 In the coming races, Rays effort will be to keep the Finn from run ming his own kind of race. Maban intimated. Their theory is that Nur- mi runs like a machine that can be set to click a certain kind of way, with so many strides to the lap. but a machine that once thrown out of gear would break down.
 "Nurmi hasn't had a taste of American racing yet" Mahan stated, but he will get 1t from now on. He runs our way hereafter. not his own His running over here has been marvellous, but he has never met q man of Rays present class either in Europe or America, especially al the shorter distance."
 Mahan, who Is a lawyer, former ly coached Dartmouth. Massachu- sets Tech and Purdue. He retired as coach of the Illinois A. c. in 1918 to devote all of his time to his prsc- tice, but at Rays request took charge of the Chicago speedster's training for the Finn.
 When Ray beats Nurmi, Mahan said. he intended to retire from coaching for good. ..,.
