HUBBELL, ROSS
 AND L0YELOCK
 WERE BIC SHOTS
By BILL BRAUCHER nuNA Onnarinn Grh0rsfg Ediff

outstanding sports performances oI 1888 were the pitching of Carl Hub bell, both in the league race ana the world series; the new mile rec ord of Jack Lovelock, New Zeal- ander, and the comeback or the lightweight division under the lm- petus of Barney Ross.
 Hubbelrs pitching came at a time when tight races in both American and National leagues had brought baseball enthusiasm to a fever heat. His shutout victories inspired Giant team considered woefully weak at the beginning or the season; his work in the series broke.the morale of the Senators, a team considered the Giants super for in every other department.
 
 Great Run
 Loyelock's new mile mark came in a race with Bill Bonthron, Princeton miller, during the rum ming of the Oxford Cambridge and Princeton Cornell track meet.
 Both were fine runners and, with Bonthron setting the early pace, the Australian came on in the stretch to cross the tape yards in front of Bonthron in the remark able time of 4:07.6, breaking, Jules Ladousmegue's old mark of 4:O9.2. Bonthron, too, broke the old rec ord, finishing in 4.0S.7.
 Ross work in the squared circle was just the tonic the fight game needed. His two victories over Tony Canzoneri, one of the greatest lightweights the ring ever knew. marked him as standout battler.
 His victory, stirred action in his own division with the result that the customers centered their atten- tion on the lighties after having been disappointed by promoters who promised Camera 6aeI match after Primo won the title from Sharkey and Baer kayoed Schmeling for the right to meet the new champion.
 In football, probably the most re- markable record was that of Princeton, under Fritz Crisler.. The Tiger. finding itself in the second year of the Crisler regime, went through a season undefeated and only major team to do so.
 Other highlights were the defeats of Notre Dame and Southern Cali fornia, the demonstrated superlor- ity of Big Ten football and the se- lection of Stanford and Columbia to play in the Rose Bowl game. Choice of Columbia came as surprise, as the team had been defeated once and was thought to be a weaker team than Pittsburgh, Nebraska, Alabama, Michigan or Duke.
 Arrived
 The star of American tennis proved to be Frank Shields, the big New Yorker who gained No rank ing position after Vines, Allison, Van Ryn and Lott dropped deci- sions at Wimbledon and in Davis cup matches in France.
 Shields won two big. eastern in- vitational matches, and was tne only one to show any great resist ance to the invasion of Perry ana Austin of England. and Crawford and McGrath of Australia.
 Helen Jacobs, by her default win from Helen Wills Moody in the women's national singles, took No ranking among feminine racque- teers.
 Newcomers
 In golf, Johnny Goodman ana Virginia Van Vie were outstanding The former was the first amateur since Bobby Jones to win the Na- tionai Open. The latter annexed the ,women's national tournament in Chicago, beating her arch rival, Helen Hicks. It,was Virginia's sec ond trip to the throne.
 Other golf winners were Denny Shuite, who copped the British open; George Dunlap, who won the National Amateur; Gene Sarazen, victor in the F. e. A.; Walter Em- cry. Intercollegiate winner; Paui Runyan and Craig Wood. young pros who cleaned up in the winter tournaments, and such youngsters as Jack Westland, Gus Moreland, Albert, Campbell and Charley Fer rera, who won major tournaments.
 On the turf, old Equipoise held his title as leading handicap horse. "Ekky" dragged down some s$55,- 760 for his winning performances during the. year. :,
 The leading three-year-old. al- though not in money won, was War Glory. He won renewals of the Dwyer ands Larence Realization stakes and the Saranac and Nary land handicaps.
 Two-year-old honors were gath cred mostly by Allies, though Sing ing Wood, by virtue of winning $SS,000 in the Belmont Futurity. led the money winners. Mata Hari probably was the best of these ju- veniles, while Bazaar, Far Star, Chickstraw, Discovery and Holy stone followed.
