American Hosiery Wins
 The speedy forward combination of Skarzynski and Tyborski was too much for the P. & r. Corbin team and after hard fought game, the American Hosiery quintet triumphed over the Corbin gang by Is to II score.
 The game started off with a field goal by Skarzynska before minute had elapsed. AIatz evened the count a few minutes later but Saun- ders put her team ahead at the first quarter mark.
 Tyborski made the score to but a few minutes later Ruth Johnson who had just gone into the game tossed in foul shot to make the score to 3. For the rest of the quarter it was the two forwards al- ternating until the score was 12 to 5, the two additional Corbin points being made by Johnson. The only time Corbin showed good offense was in the latter minutes when the lead gathered by the Hosiery team was too great to be overcome. Frances Winfrey went ln to save the day but Trahan whose defen- slve play was the feature Of the night held her in check and Win nie" had to retire without scoring her quota of two baskets. The score

DOG TEAMS READY FOR FINAL DASH
Three Veterans Are BunChed
 Together in Sled Race

North Conway, N. H., Feb. 12 P Ten dog teams strained in the har- ness today for the final dash in the second annual point to point race of the New England Sled Dog club.
 The trail lay over 4415 miles of snow covered roads down to Wolfe boro from where the huskies and their drivers set out on an uphill grind Thursday
 AS the teams lined up today. three veterans of the northern trek were punched together for the lead. Francois Dupuis, winner of the Que bee international derby in 1926, still held the scant advantage which he established on the first day of the race from Wolfeboro to Ashland.
 But although he was ahead of Leonhard Seppala by three minutes and 50 seconds, the hero of the Nome serum dash finished the sec- ond leg with his dogs in the best of condition of the pack while one of Dupuis' animals had been forced out by bad feet.
 Emil St Goddard, stripling from the Pas, Manitoba, whose teams have carried him to victory more than once in the rigorous northwest, came in third. Hiram Mason of Tamworth and Arthur Walden, Won olancet, were in fourth and fifth places respectively.
 Dupuis has negotiated the S9 miles to date in seven hours, 57 minutes and six seconds. Sepalla, while slightly behind for the two days, finished yesterdays run 10 sec onds faster than the leader. He made the remarkable average of slightly better than Il miles an hour.

HOPPE LEADS IN
 BILLIARD MATCH
Passes N'elker Cochran in
 Second Round Of Title Play

Boston, Feb.12 R-Willie Hoppe, champion of the world at 18.2 balk line billiards, was leading his chal- lenger, Welker Cochran of Los An geles' today 1000 to 7O5 in their three day, 1,500 point title match.
 Hoppe came from behind last night to overcome a lead of 166 piled up by Cochran at their first encounter Thursday.
 After poor start he swept into the lead in the seventh inning of the nights play with run of 154, the highest of the match. He followed this with others of 112 and 152.
 Cochran seemed unable to get under way. He did succeed, how ever, in staging comeback in the fourteenth inning that brought him v in a spectacular burst of open table play.
 The nights work netted the champion 666 or an average of fl 6-15 for Is innings. Cochran's average was only 13 1O-15 and his total 205. Match average to date stand, Cochran 19 2.37; Hoppe o7 1-37.
 Last nights game was in sharp contrast 10 the lusterless play that marked their opening brush and 1t saw the man who has held the title almost continuously for 20 years once more hitting his stride.
 Play tonight will decide the match and the title. The present contest is Hopes first championship test since he regained his crown from Erich Hagenlacher early this year.

 NEW GOLF GROWN
C0nQuerS Field in South Central
 Open Championship Play

Hot Springs, Ark, Feb. . P-A new golf crown rested today upon the head Bobby Cruickshank, the professional of the Progress Country club of Purchase, N. Y. Bobby's new headgear is the south central open championship which he gained from field of the country's best golfers yesterday on a rain-soaked course of the Hot Springs Golf and Country club.
 Frank Walsh of Appleton Wis, was the runner-up and Joe Turnesa, Elmsford. N. Y; Al Watrous, Grand Rapids; Tom Kerrigan, Mount Yer non, N. r., and Cyril Walker, tied for the next four places.
 Bobby played sterling golf under the most adverse weather conditions. The course was soaked by a slow rain which continued throughout the day. It was an uphill fight for the New York veteran handicapped as he was by an ugly 80 on his first round played in severe cold Thurs day.
 But the little Scot was game and he fought stubbornly for the prize. Getting back to his par game In the afternoon round, Cruick- shank pushed cn doggedly turning in 73 yesterday morning and par 72 in the final round. He led the field by a margin of four strokes, his card being 29s for the 72 holes.
 Walsh finished with even 500 and second money, while the four play CTS in the tie had cards of 301.

Former New York Giant Comes
 to Terms With Robinson

New York, Feb. 12 GP - Emil Irish Meusel, slugging outfelder wi.o purchased his release from the New York Giants last summer, will park his glove in the Brooklyn out CT gardens this year.
 The controversy arising out of conflicting claims of the Dodgers and Cincinnati Reds was settled today when Manager Jack Hendricks said he had learned that his bid for Meu- sel followed that of Wilbert Robin son, president of the Brooklyn club.
 Both arrangements announced simultaneously Thursday night that Meusel, veteran brother of Bob, Yankee star, had accepted terms for 1927. Robinson said Meusel had sign ed the Dodger contract calling for s10,000 salary and had forwarded it from Hollywood, where he Is en- gagged in moving pictures for the winter with brother Bob.
 we were too late and l am sor- ry," Hendricks said today. We had accepted terms but waited too long to close the deal. and Robbie came along and took the player before we knew what 1t was all about"
 Hendricks sought Meusel during consideration of the trade that sent Eddie Roush to the Giants in ex- change for George Kelly. Although Kelly is first baseman, Hendricks
