BROOKLYN'S WIN OVER HILLS GIVES
 THEM FIRST PLACE
B. A. C. Outfit Yet to Be Beaten With One Game to Play = Speedboys Ousted By Hearts

George McNanara's Brooklyn A. c. basketball array proved conclu- sively yesterday afternoon that 1t Is the best team in the City Amateur League this season. In q thrilling contest the Dunn, Daly, Swasey, Car roll, Sheehan and Higgiston sextette outsl1ot the Washington Hills minus Joe Navfn, 42 to 38 in game which looked to be sewed up easily for Brooklyn only to have the Hills put on a spurt which put them within two points of the undefeated Blue and White crew, with 25 seconds to play.
 Undoubtedly the absence of Joe Navin hurt the Hills chances from the start, for a.maJor part of their offense has been built around the speedy floor work of the ex-Amherst sharpshooter. It was fouls, the Hills weakness, that beat them again, the Brooklyn array being out scored from the floor IS to 14 but they counted 14 times from the pen- alty mark to eight singles for the winners. The Brooklyn club bore down in the third period to take an eleven point lead. which the Abri- gador boys cut down to four at the sleeper" play to Ray Daly. All Six of the Brooklyns scored from both field and foul line.
 KEPT AHEAD
 Close as the game was, the Brook lyns led all the way. It was IA to Il at the quarter, 22 to 21 at the half, 36 to 27 at the third. Matty Sheehan was removed early in the game for Mike Higgiston who played well, but 1t was Joe Swascy who did the work and Dunn and Daly scoring to put the game on ice. Young Earl Lewis was the high scorer of the game with 15 points while Zeke Conndr got an even dozen. and Howie Kraft half of that.

 The Penn tracksters, top-heavy favorites in the pre-meet sentiment, won the annual I. c. 4-A games, Sat- urday night. scoring twice as many points as their next closest rivals, the men oDHarvard.
 Great Athlete
 The big hero, of course. was that cheerful, little jack-of-all-trades. Pennsylvanias Barney Berlinger. This was in the shotput and was made by heave of AS feet. 6 t-4 inches. The l. c. A. A. A. A. record is 48.8.
 Berlinger tied for second cham pionship, the pole vault, sharing with Everett Colyer of Cornell, the honor of establishing a new Inter- collegiate record of 13 feet 8 1-4 inches.
 Berlinger also tied for fifth place in the high jump, crossing the bar feet, l inch. The nights perform ances brought Berlinger's alltice inc door intercollegiate meet point total of 27 1-4, creating a new record.
 Fast Finish
 Carl coan was q second important Pennsylvania athlete. He won the mile championship in the new meet record time of 4:15.2. Coan's vic- tory. was the most exciting of the games. Because Coan had to win over an arch rival, George Bullwin- kle, of the College of the City of New York. Bullwinkle set the pace for three quarters of mile, but coan closed in a 10-stride lead and left Bullwinkle fading at the fin- ish.
 One of the new tournament rec- ords established was also new world indoor record. This was in the one mile relay won by Penn's quartet, John Edwards. Horace Carr.
 While Penn and Berlinger were becoming the track heroes over here, CaV bridge was winning its annual meet with oxford, in England. The star of that meet was +. M. N. Tls- dall, who won four first places for the Cantabs. Ills victories were in the shot put. broad jump, 120-yard high hurdles and the 40.
