C. Cavagnaro , Manual Training High School, of Brooklyn, with nine successive victories, captured the annual high schools dual championship swimming tournament, which came to an end in the Evander Childs High School pool yesterday morning. Manual capped its brilliant record with a decisive victory over the High School of Commerce by a score of .17 to IG points. Brooklyn also «rained second place ?>-- in the final standing when Erasmus Hall High School, winner of the, series last year, defeated Townsend Harris Hall in the closest meet of the day by 31 to 21 points. Erasmus Half won eight of its nine series, suffering its only setback at the hands of Manual. Stuyvesr.nt and Clinton, both of Manhattan, are tied for third place with six victories in the nine series, while the other six contesting schools are placed as follows: Commerce, Townsend Harris Hall, Bovs' High, Curtis. Evander Childs and Bryant. Surpass Best Previous Efforts In their final meet the Manual swim¬ mers surpassed their other creditable efforts during the tourney. Their most conspicuous feat was in winnine the 200-yard relay race in 1 minute 5*7 4-5 seconds. This time smashes the exist¬ ing public schoolboy record for the event by 13 3-5 seconds. However, only new records are recognized in the individual championship meet which follows the dual series. The Commerce squad was unable to match the speed of its rivals, who won five first places. Searle, of Com¬ merce, saved the sixth first place forh¡3 team when he won the fancy dive, with 29 points, which was one more point than that credited to King, of Manual, who was second. Arnold, of Manual, returned one of the fastest times for 50-yards during the tournev, being clocked in 28 sec¬ onds. Herbert Foote, son of Co'onel John Foote. formerly of the 14th Reg¬ iment, Brooklyn, added to his victories in the 100-yard event. Five First Places Erasmus managed to outscore Town- send Harris Hall for first places, with five to its credit, but the Townsend boys were more proficient in pulling down second places. Mindlin, of Townsend. won the plunge for dis¬ tance with a "float" of 52 feet, while Horac McMullen, Erasmul, captured his fifth 50-yard swim in the fast time of 30 seconds. In the other meet scheduled, the weak Evander-Childs High School fell easy pr«^y to Stuyvesant High School by a score of 44 to 9 points. While Stuyvesant failed to fare as well as expected during the series its repre¬ sentatives will be conspicuous in the coming individual title competitions. Perry, Loewy, Robinson and Ken¬ nedy, consistent winners for Stuwe- snnt, gained additional victories. Of th<? r>:ne points collected by Evander- Childs, Buchanan tallied five points ^>y winning the fancy dive. Flushing Has Bisf Day The Flushing High School athletes were victorious over the Pawling School students in two of three athletic events at Pawlinsr yestenTay. Pushing won the basketball game, 25 to 24, and the swimming meet, 30 to 23. Pawling cap¬ tured the hockey game, 5 to 2. New Rochelle Beats Princeton The New Rochelle hockey team de¬ feated Princeton yesterday afternoon bv a score of 4 to 2.

Princeton, it is un¬ derstood, views the proposition favor¬ ably and will consider Lehigh on the first opportunity presented. It is six years since relations between the two institutions were severed. Among other matters of importance I was the discussion for a new Lacrosse coach. The schedule is drawn up, and with the first game scheduled with the j Navy at Annapolis on April 10. Several applications were received, but no definite appointment made. However, it is understood that the probable coach will be T. C. O'Neil. of Ottawa, Canada. O'Neil played under Glenn Warner nt Carlisle, and after the latter left for Pittsburgh, assumed the coaching duties and remained there up to the time the government abandoned the school. Since then he has played extensively in Canada. Basketball, soccer, swimming and wrestling are the present seasonable sports on which interest is mostly cen¬ tered. Although the basketball schedule was ratified at a previous meeting of the athletic council, permission was granted to meet the Crescent Athletic Club at Brooklyn on January 24. The Crescent Athletic Club is also entered in the In¬ tercollegiate Lacrosse League and meets Lehigh. Lehigh will keenly feel the loss of Kenneth Bovier, intercollegiate wrest¬ ling champion in the 125-pound class. Manager Gardy in busy arranging the baseball schedule. Ten of the nineteen games have already been closed and he expects to complete the list in two or three weeks. ¡New York Team Victorious PHILADELPHIA, Jan. 17. -New York defeated Philadelphia in an inter-city racquet match here to-day, winning three matches and gaining the fourth by default.

Eastwood Elected Captain PROVIDENCE, Jan 17..Cecil East¬ wood, of the class of '21, was to-night elected captain of the 1920 football team of Rhode Island State College. Eastwood's home is in Providence. To Stage Five-Mile Run A five-mile invitation run will be promoted by the Lawler Bros, Athletic Association, beginning at Howard Ave¬ nue and Munroe Street, Brooklyn, this morning at 11 a, m. Great preparations are now being made at Fordham University for the coming baseball season. Evidently the Bronx collegians intend to tnakc a strong bid for the championship of the East, which they came within an ace of winning last year. Baseball experts rated them second to Holy Cross and the Maroon nine was the only team to register a victory over the Worcester aggregation. Aloysius P. Arthur, the. Fordham manager, is busy preparing his sched¬ ule which, from present indications, will be the most imposing list, of games over arranged at the Bronx in- rt'P-'v'-inn inH will include most of the leading teams of the East. At Least Thirty Games. Contests have already been booked with Harvard. PrinccLon, Pennsylvania. Holy Cross, Army, West Virginia, Co¬ lumbia and Dartmouth, in addition to a score of other teams. The complete schedule, which will be ready for pub¬ lication within the next fortnight, will consist, of at least thirty ganien, more «),.,. i1np nf which will be played at Fordham Field. The Maroon nine will probably open its season with the Boston College team, whose star pitcher, Fitzpatrick, registered two victories over the New Yorkers last. year. The game will be staged at Fordham Field on April 1. The contests with Pennsylvania, Har¬ vard and Lehigh will mean a renewal of athletic re'ations with these institu¬ tions after the lapse of almost a dec¬ ade. Colgate, Dartmouth, West Vir¬ ginia and Tufts will appear on the schedule for the first time in several years. The University of Pittsburgh nine will visit Fordham Field on May 20. One of the features of the schedule is the contest with the Giants, which will be staged at the Polo Grounds on April 12/ two days before the opening of the league season. Arrangements are now being made to hold a celebra¬ tion in honor of Frank Frisch, the star shortstop of the Fordham nine last year, who will probably appear in the line-up against his former teammates. Southern Trip at Easter Plans are now practically completed for the annual Southern trip, which will be made during the Easter vaca tion. The Maroon nine will meet Vil¬ lanova at Vjllanova, Pa.; Johos Hopkins at Baltimore and Catholic University at Washington. A tram» is also pend- ing with the Baltimore Orioles, champions of the Internationnl League whom For«iham defeated at Baltimore last spring by the score of 9 to 7.- Home-and-home series have been scheduled with Columbia, Hoïy Cross, Boston College, Johns Hoipkinsj, Cath- o'ic University and VHlanova. Efforts are being made to arrange games with the teams from the University of Ore¬ gon and the Universitv of Cai;fm'nin. both of which will make an Eastern trip in the spring. Great disappointment, has been ex¬ pressed at Fordham over the absence of Yale from the list of frames. Ford¬ ham and Yale- engaged in two extra- inning contests last year, each team being victories in one. The New Haven authorities have notified the Fordham management that they will be unable to give the Maroon aggre¬ gation a place on their schedule this season. Prospects for a strong nine at the Bronx* university are brighter than in many years in spite 'if y;he 'oss of Frank Frisch, who was the mainstay of the toan; during the last campaign. Seven of the regulars have returned to college this year, and, in addition several former stars frc«m Fordham Prep and other high schools will be candidates for the team. Among the veterans are Lefevre, third baseman and captain of the 1920 team; McLoughlin, first baseman; Kcough, left fielder; Buckley, center fielder; and Donovan, catcher. The pitching staff should be particularly strong, as the veterans. Finn, Mac- Ñamara, and Holloran, will probably be in shape to take their regular turns in the box from the start of the season. ! Arthur Devlin, whose efforts as coach during the first year at fordham were I crowned with notable success, has re- cently affixed his signature to a con- | tract to (direct Fordham's baseball destinies for another year. He an- nounccd last night that he will issue the first call for candidates on Febru- j ary 15th. Many Champions Enter Brooklyn College Carnival Earl Eby and Larry Brown, Un i ver- sity of Pennsylvania, and James .,. Connolly, Georgetown University, are j,the first, star middle-distance runners to enter the Brooklyn College Thou- sand, the feature event at the sixth nn- inuul indoor meet of Brooklyn College, to be held at the 14th Regiment Ar-! mory otTSaturday evening, January 31. Others invited to race include Joie ¡Ray, national champion at the dis- tance; Anatole Bolin, champion of ¡Sweden; Joseph T. Higgins, who led home the field when the event was last held in 1017; Mike Devanhey, Millrose A. A., winner in 1916, und the three ¡crack Brooklyn ¡tes--John R. Sellers, New York A.

This race promises to be ¡one of the best in the indoor season., The Brooklyn College Thousand "Is only one of many features on the pro¬ gram. In the invitation one-mile col¬ lege relay the starters are expected to be Pennsylvania, Yale, Princeton, Georgetown, Columbia and others. It will be the first big college relay race held in this city in years. James J. O'Brien, Loughlin Lyceum, and Roger E. Daisley, New York A.

À Real All-Americas Named For All-Service Eleven Nearly Every Player Honored by Walter Camp Is Se¬ lected by Trumbull in Choosing Two Squads Composed of Men Who Were in the Service The All-Service football team, made up of players who served with the army or navy during the World War, has been selected by Walter Trumbull, late captain 116th Field Artillery, U. S. A. Six, of the men picked for Captain Trumbull'8 first eleven were selected by Walter Camp for his first team. Captain Trumbull gives his reasons for selecting this unique 100 per cent Ail-American team. The Team With Replacements By Walter Trumbull End. H'gpins, Penn Slate. Meyers, Wisconsin.

When the Hun tried to force kultur down the throats of his neigh¬ bors and acquaintances," and lost a few fingers in the operation, football did its bit. When the call came nobody had to supply an ear trumpet to any of the amateur athletes,of this country, and the response from the punters of the pigskin vas close to 100 per cent. How well they played the game is evidenced by the fact tl^it about half of the men connected with sport who to-day sleep over yonder, arc football men. ity in the land that cannot proudly point tq names on its roster of gridiron heroes of those who made good in the greater game. Among the first to seek and find the Great Adventure was Johnnie Poe; Johnnie Poo, of Prince¬ ton, and the Black Watch; Johnnie Poe who once sent the message to an elev¬ en, "If you won't be beat, you can't be beat." Not a bad slogan for an army, that! Princeton gave other great football players to the cause. There was Garry Cochrane, end; Joe Duff, guard; and Arthur Bleuthenthal, center; each an AU-American man. Football Heroes Fall Then there were Hamilton Coolidgc and Philip Mills and Dilwyn Starr, of Harvard, and Alec Wilson, of Yale, and Belvidere Brooks, of Williams, and Lloyd Hamilton, of Syracuse, and (i. \V. Berriman, of Brown, and T. W. Ashley, of Amherst, and J. A. Emery and C. A. Pudrith, of Dartmouth, and Jeff Healy, of Columbia, and Gerald Carroll, of New York University, and William B. Dean, of West Point, and William M. Nichols, of Annapolis, and a whole long string of others known to tame on the crosR-barrel Held. ' Yes, football did its part, and if i: is played on the Elysinn Finida what great eleven must be fathered there! But this article do with !!. boyH who camo back. Not'the older football men and the service was f II of them.but the boys who, a ter a-, h army or navy schooling, Stil! wir young enough to go back In the class- 'rooms und athletic fields of their col¬ leges and universities. From tho ranks of these this all-service football team has been selected. Some of these men saw active fight¬ ing while others did not. 'Those who were not actually in the gamo were warming up on the sidelines, eager to hop to it when their chance might come. If they were in this country or in the S. O. S.-. rather than actually mingling with tho brawling boche, the fault was none of theirs. It lay some¬ where higher up among tho series of peaks that rose in Washington. With practically all the football men in the country from whom to pick, no claim is made that this is the best all- service team that could have been chosen. There may be better men for some of the positions than those se¬ lected, but we refuse to be drawn into any discussion of the matter. Though our judgment may be questioned and the echo of loud and scornful laughter resound from various parts of the country where football solons sit, we refuse to explain by indorsement hereon. These men are pood enough. They are good enough for us and they are good enough for anybody. We do not call it. an all-service eleven because it consists of twenty- two men. All of us know the necessity of replacements. Neither has any (.Teat elfort been made to divide the selections into a first and seconi: eleven. There are two men for each place, Drtcl if one of their, happened tc he on sick retort the other would d< jist about us well, or perhaps in sum cusí Kelter. Many Player,. Eligible It, would have been just ahout as ens; 1.0 pick five men for each position as ti I Ick two. Fur instance, there are sucl players as Conovor, Wav. Uubb ani Oslinrn. n. l'l.nn _..ntn- Hnhort<.nn #. Syracuse; Robertson, of Dartmouth: Anderson, of Colgate! Weldon, of Lafa¬ yette; Braden, of Yale; Harrick and Hite, of West Virginia; Weston, Scott and Elliot, of Wisconsin, arid a battal¬ ion or so of others who are just about as valuable football players as ever drew on a cleated shoe. But, as I have mentioned, the roster assembled should be eminently satis¬ factory. We claim that this outfit as a whole possesses the capabilities to run with the speed of a scout plane engine, to bump the line with the calm deter¬ mination of a moving tank annoyed by some slight obstruction, to pass with the east of :i seasoned crops siiooter and to kick with the grace nnà fluency of a doughboy voicing an encomium of his rations. First, taking up the end.s, Higgins was a member of the championship 89th Division team, Miller started out in the cavalry and Meyers and Brown were aviators. Meyers, by the way, was a captain of aviation and was credited with four enemy machines. All of these men could cover kicks like a circus tent, could break up and get through interference, could receive forward passes and could do anything else required of them. When they were doing sentry duty on the wings nobody got, by without the password, and the only persons who had the word' were the umpire and referee. For tackles we have material im¬ possible to beat and hard to tie. All four were army men. West, late of the 307th Field Artillery, and previ¬ ously and later of Colgate, was a 200- pounder who could not only play hi? position in a manner to bring gri?f to his opponents but could also punt and kick field goals from placement. Cody weighed 210 pouT'.ds and carried that weight over the chalk marks with remarkable velocity. He made more tackles from down field than did the Vanderbilt ends, and some of the men he tackled in an open field later de¬ clared that they must, inadvertently have stepped in front of a locomotive that was going sixty miles an hour Cody was also a good drop kicker Henry was so good on the defense thai the opposing team usually pointed it.' attack as far away from him a* pos¬ sible. Cubbage. rounds our a mosi efficient quartet. McGraw Lqscs Finger Among the guards, Youngstrom was in the navy and the other three in th< army. McGraw finished the war minui a finger. Youngstrom probably blocke« more kicks this year than any line mai in the game. He certainly was a kiel destroyer, and whenever he loomed ii the offing opposing punters prepared submerge. Alexander and McGraw wer both great men on the defense and Bar ton was as steady and reliable a lin man as ho was a sergeant of the A. E. J; At center Callahan, of Yale, was a fine a defensive player as the seaso showed, and Carpenter was s shift} dangerous lineman with the speed o an end. There would bo no weaknes in the middle of the line with thes men there. Williams owed most of its effective ness this senson to the help of Go and one marine. With a larger colleg Berry Boynton would have been baile as a star of the first magnitude. Hi versatility was remarkable. There wa nothing that could be asked of a qúai 'terback that he could not do. Stincl comb, of Ohio State, was another gre; quarterback and did his full ohai with Harley toward his team's succès He was a deadly tackier, a fine ope field runner and had plenty of stu abovo the shoulders. He wa3 in Ü navy. Nobody will deny Eddie Casey, < Harvard, a place on uny team. It wt CnHcy who proved the salvation < his team in both the Princeton ar Yale games. Me can forward pass and 1 c.nn grab for a forward pnaa as if h fingers were anointed "with gluo. He faster thnn a Broadway spendthri and as elusivo as tho shadow of drpRm. Four, coaches from other colleg have called Erickson, of Waahingt« and Jefferson, one of the best backj of the year, and that is high praise. Oss, of Minnesota, was the sensation of Western football. He is one of the fastest sprinters in that part of the country, and in a broken field he is about as easy to hold as an electric eel. Yost of Michigan; Zuppke, of Uli- nois, and Richards, of Wisconsin, called Oss one of the greatest halfbacks they ever saw. and they have seen a great many. Hastings, of Pittsburgh, has proven his worth time and again. High Praise for Rodgers Kodgers, of West. Virginia, is as good ! a fullback as ever hit ä line. He weighed 108 pounds, had plenty of speed and plunged into an opposing line with the impetus of a six-inch shell. He was also a line kicker and forward passer. Against such teams ss Princeton. Rut- gers and Washington and Jefferson, Rodgers gained a total of 799 yards. He gained 393 yards with passes, 122 yards in returning kicks and kick-offs and 384 yards in rushing the ball from scrimmage. Rodgers was a second lieu¬ tenant of infantry. Gillo, of Colgate, lacked the versatil¬ ity of Rodgers. He neither passed nor kicked, but he was ;. terrific line smasher. When he threw his 190 pounds whole heartedly into his spe-: ciulty tho members of the Undertakers' Union u«ed to smile at the thought of coming business. With these two full- backs a team could welcome any emer- gen-cyq that arose. Yes. there may be better men. but we are satisfied with this All-Service team. It may be that others could pick teams of the same sort that would beat it, but in that case we certainly should like to expend real money to have a front seat at the game. One of the most gratifying things about picking an All-Service team has been the letters from coaches, many of theip in the service themselves. To the. query, "Which of. your football players were in the service?" man after man replied, "All of our players were in the service." The gridiron game proved its worth. The mimic battle were productive of tfle spirit that won a world war.

Cavagnaro The novelty of seeing athletes striva for glory and prizes on an indoor cin¬ der track, which will be the only on« of its kind in the world, will be the good fortune of the followers of this branch of sport in this city. Plans for the erection of the dirt track have been approved by the athletic com¬ mittee of the 8th Coasi Artillery Corps, of the Bronx, which is situated at West Kingsbridge Road and Jerome Avenue. Work on the track will be begun im¬ mediately in order that it may be .«completed early in May to permit the staging of a set of games before the first, half of the 1920 indoor Beaeon passes into history. In keeping wit!«, "its big program of improvements, the committee intends to install all th« other athletic fixtures that, will make it possible to conduct all outdoor track and field competitions in the inclosurc. The athletic committee, whose aim it is to put the Artillery Corp.* on as strong an athletic basis hs the best p«' National Guard units in the metropolis, is headed by Colonel V. Austin, ex- offkio; Major C. tí. Webster, chair¬ man; Captain John J. Quinn, the one¬ time middle distance runner; Captain T. Schofield, Lieutenant A. Mal'.or and Lieutenant R. S. Bishop. Each mem¬ ber of the committee is in charge of different forms of sport, with Captain Quinn in charge of track and field com¬ petition. The size of the proposed amphi¬ theater will permit the conducting of many* sports 8t the same time. The inclosure will be "00 feet wid? and fifiO feet long, with no obstructions blocking the view of the .spectators. In addition to the 440-yard track, it in planned to make provisions fo;- a 220- yard straightaway which will also al¬ low for the 120-yard high and 220-yard low hurdle races. The track is to be built sufficiently large to allow the placing of live hurdles abreast. The pits that prevail outdoors for the weight throwers and jumpers will be included in every detail. There- will be sand pits erected for bot I: the pole vaulters and high and broad jumpers and permanent ring.- laid in the dirt for the weight throwers. After the track is given a sound foundation with a fine layer of cinders one foot of lean will be spread over it. It will then be treated chemically to make the track lightning fast. An idea of the massiveness of the drill room is gained in the fact that it will be possible to set up twenty- live lawn tennis courts, four basket¬ ball courts, two indoor baseball dia¬ monds and a football gridiron. While the balcony surrounding the track can seat only 6,000 persons, provisions cau be made^for accommodating 30,000. The arhletic «committee also intends to engage the most rapable athletic coach obtainable. Applications for this position from half a dozen veteran athletes are now under consideration by the committee, which hones to make its selection known within a week. Among the candidates ir, a former pro¬ fessional sprinter who has retained a place with the best tutors in Europe for the past ten years. He is now in this country. Representative teams will be en¬ tered in both indoor and outdoor tac- tivities. At the present time The Bronx regiment is conducting an indoor baseball tournament, with twelve <-«>m- panies qualifying for th«. champion¬ ship, while the basketball title serie?, with thirty-four teams, will get under way on February 1. From the; baseball league the com¬ mittee hopes to select a formidable nine to represent the regiment against club, college and regimental trains during the coming outdoor season. The 26tb Company, which is 134 years old, has entor«>«l teams in both the baseball and basketball tourneys. and the members hope to continue the pace set by former company teams in winning the majority of the regimental title tournaments. » Mohawks to Fight For Point Trophies Won Last Year A special committee, composed of Timothy Sullivan, Jack Burgess and Max Silver, was, selected by tue mem¬ bers of the Mohawk Athletic Clnb, tfc« Bronx, last, night to confer with the registration committee of the Metro¬ politan Association over two point cups that are in dispute tween the club and committee. The committee was instructed by the members to seek a reopening of the case in order that Francis Wilson, v.-ho is alleged to be responsible for the entire trouble, snav be permitted to give his évidence. A similar request was made of the registration committee recently, bul this was denied with the statement that the case was closed. However, the committee refuses to alter its Btam the Bronx organization intends to seek redress from a higher tribunal. The Mohawk slogan is a "light to the end unless the special committee is per¬ mitted to submit its additional evi¬ dence. The fight between the two bodies dates back to last May, when the Mo^ hawk club was declared the winner of the team honors in the Kin«js County A. A. road run. However, it later de¬ veloped that Wilson was inoliiribie to represent the club. The return of th" prizes was demanded, but the club steadfastly ignored the registration committee demand. -p^^lBRÜOK.,rtONC, ¡S LÀN'n.'.

wimming Title With Nine Straight Victories

By A. C. Cavagnaro ,

Manual Training High School, of Brooklyn, with nine successivevictories, captured the annual high schools dual championship swimmingtournament, which came to an end in the Evander Childs High Schoolpool yesterday morning. Manual capped its brilliant record with a

decisive victory over the High School of Commerce by a score of .17 to IGpoints.

Brooklyn also «rained second place ?>--

in the final standing when ErasmusHall High School, winner of the, serieslast year, defeated Townsend HarrisHall in the closest meet of the day by31 to 21 points. Erasmus Half won

eight of its nine series, suffering itsonly setback at the hands of Manual.

Stuyvesr.nt and Clinton, both ofManhattan, are tied for third placewith six victories in the nine series,while the other six contesting schoolsare placed as follows: Commerce,Townsend Harris Hall, Bovs' High,Curtis. Evander Childs and Bryant.

Surpass Best Previous EffortsIn their final meet the Manual swim¬

mers surpassed their other creditableefforts during the tourney. Their mostconspicuous feat was in winnine the200-yard relay race in 1 minute 5*7 4-5seconds. This time smashes the exist¬ing public schoolboy record for theevent by 13 3-5 seconds. However,only new records are recognized inthe individual championship meetwhich follows the dual series.The Commerce squad was unable to

match the speed of its rivals, whowon five first places. Searle, of Com¬merce, saved the sixth first place forh¡3team when he won the fancy dive,with 29 points, which was one more

point than that credited to King, ofManual, who was second.

Arnold, of Manual, returned one ofthe fastest times for 50-yards duringthe tournev, being clocked in 28 sec¬onds. Herbert Foote, son of Co'onelJohn Foote. formerly of the 14th Reg¬iment, Brooklyn, added to his victoriesin the 100-yard event.

Five First PlacesErasmus managed to outscore Town-

send Harris Hall for first places, withfive to its credit, but the Townsendboys were more proficient in pullingdown second places. Mindlin, ofTownsend. won the plunge for dis¬tance with a "float" of 52 feet, whileHorac McMullen, Erasmul, capturedhis fifth 50-yard swim in the fasttime of 30 seconds.

In the other meet scheduled, theweak Evander-Childs High School felleasy pr«^y to Stuyvesant High Schoolby a score of 44 to 9 points. WhileStuyvesant failed to fare as well as

expected during the series its repre¬sentatives will be conspicuous in thecoming individual title competitions.

Perry, Loewy, Robinson and Ken¬nedy, consistent winners for Stuwe-snnt, gained additional victories. Of th<?r>:ne points collected by Evander-Childs, Buchanan tallied five points^>y winning the fancy dive.

Flushing Has Bisf DayThe Flushing High School athletes

Lehigh to ResumeSport Relations

With PrincetonSpecial Correspondence

BETHLEHEM, Pa., Jan. 17..Thatfavorable negotiations are pending withPrinceton to resume athletic relationswith Lehigh became known at the regu¬lar monthly meeting of the Lehigh Ath¬letic Association. Princeton, it is un¬derstood, views the proposition favor¬ably and will consider Lehigh on thefirst opportunity presented. It is sixyears since relations between the twoinstitutions were severed.Among other matters of importanceI was the discussion for a new Lacrossecoach. The schedule is drawn up, andwith the first game scheduled with thej Navy at Annapolis on April 10. Severalapplications were received, but nodefinite appointment made. However, itis understood that the probable coachwill be T. C. O'Neil. of Ottawa, Canada.O'Neil played under Glenn Warner ntCarlisle, and after the latter left forPittsburgh, assumed the coaching dutiesand remained there up to the time thegovernment abandoned the school. Sincethen he has played extensively inCanada.Basketball, soccer, swimming andwrestling are the present seasonablesports on which interest is mostly cen¬tered. Although the basketball schedule

was ratified at a previous meeting of theathletic council, permission was grantedto meet the Crescent Athletic Club atBrooklyn on January 24. The CrescentAthletic Club is also entered in the In¬tercollegiate Lacrosse League and meetsLehigh.Lehigh will keenly feel the loss ofKenneth Bovier, intercollegiate wrest¬ling champion in the 125-pound class.Manager Gardy in busy arranging thebaseball schedule. Ten of the nineteen

games have already been closed and heexpects to complete the list in two orthree weeks.

¡New York Team VictoriousPHILADELPHIA, Jan. 17. -New Yorkdefeated Philadelphia in an inter-cityracquet match here to-day, winningthree matches and gaining the fourthby default. The local player« wereheaded by Jay Gould, recent winnerof the open court tennis championship.Eastwood Elected CaptainPROVIDENCE, Jan 17..Cecil East¬wood, of the class of '21, was to-nightelected captain of the 1920 footballteam of Rhode Island State College.Eastwood's home is in Providence.To Stage Five-Mile Run

A five-mile invitation run will bepromoted by the Lawler Bros, AthleticAssociation, beginning at Howard Ave¬nue and Munroe Street, Brooklyn, thismorning at 11 a, m.

Great preparations are now beingmade at Fordham University for thecoming baseball season. Evidently theBronx collegians intend to tnakc astrong bid for the championship of theEast, which they came within an aceof winning last year. Baseball expertsrated them second to Holy Cross andthe Maroon nine was the only team toregister a victory over the Worcesteraggregation.

Aloysius P. Arthur, the. Fordhammanager, is busy preparing his sched¬ule which, from present indications,will be the most imposing list, ofgames over arranged at the Bronx in-rt'P-'v'-inn inH will include most of theleading teams of the East.

At Least Thirty Games.Contests have already been booked

with Harvard. PrinccLon, Pennsylvania.Holy Cross, Army, West Virginia, Co¬lumbia and Dartmouth, in addition toa score of other teams. The completeschedule, which will be ready for pub¬lication within the next fortnight, willconsist, of at least thirty ganien, more«),.,. i1np nf which will be played atFordham Field.The Maroon nine will probably open

its season with the Boston Collegeteam, whose star pitcher, Fitzpatrick,registered two victories over the NewYorkers last. year. The game will bestaged at Fordham Field on April 1.The contests with Pennsylvania, Har¬

vard and Lehigh will mean a renewal ofathletic re'ations with these institu¬tions after the lapse of almost a dec¬ade. Colgate, Dartmouth, West Vir¬ginia and Tufts will appear on theschedule for the first time in severalyears. The University of Pittsburghnine will visit Fordham Field on May20.One of the features of the schedule

is the contest with the Giants, whichwill be staged at the Polo Grounds onApril 12/ two days before the openingof the league season. Arrangementsare now being made to hold a celebra¬tion in honor of Frank Frisch, the starshortstop of the Fordham nine lastyear, who will probably appear in theline-up against his former teammates.

Southern Trip at EasterPlans are now practically completed

for the annual Southern trip, whichwill be made during the Easter vacation. The Maroon nine will meet Vil¬lanova at Vjllanova, Pa.; Johos Hopkinsat Baltimore and Catholic Universityat Washington. A tram» is also pend-ing with the Baltimore Orioles,champions of the Internationnl Leaguewhom For«iham defeated at Baltimorelast spring by the score of 9 to 7.-Home-and-home series have been

scheduled with Columbia, Hoïy Cross,Boston College, Johns Hoipkinsj, Cath-o'ic University and VHlanova. Effortsare being made to arrange games withthe teams from the University of Ore¬gon and the Universitv of Cai;fm'nin.both of which will make an Easterntrip in the spring.Great disappointment, has been ex¬

pressed at Fordham over the absenceof Yale from the list of frames. Ford¬ham and Yale- engaged in two extra-inning contests last year, each teambeing victories in one. The NewHaven authorities have notified theFordham management that they willbe unable to give the Maroon aggre¬gation a place on their schedule thisseason.

Prospects for a strong nine at theBronx* university are brighter than inmany years in spite 'if y;he 'oss ofFrank Frisch, who was the mainstayof the toan; during the last campaign.Seven of the regulars have returnedto college this year, and, in additionseveral former stars frc«m FordhamPrep and other high schools will becandidates for the team.Among the veterans are Lefevre,

third baseman and captain of the 1920team; McLoughlin, first baseman;Kcough, left fielder; Buckley, centerfielder; and Donovan, catcher. Thepitching staff should be particularlystrong, as the veterans. Finn, Mac-Ñamara, and Holloran, will probably bein shape to take their regular turns inthe box from the start of the season.! Arthur Devlin, whose efforts as coachduring the first year at fordham were Icrowned with notable success, has re-cently affixed his signature to a con-

| tract to (direct Fordham's baseballdestinies for another year. He an-nounccd last night that he will issuethe first call for candidates on Febru-j ary 15th.

Real All-Americas NamedFor All-Service Eleven

Nearly Every Player Honored by Walter Camp Is Se¬lected by Trumbull in Choosing Two SquadsComposed of Men Who Were in the Service

The All-Service football team, made up of players who served withthe army or navy during the World War, has been selected by WalterTrumbull, late captain 116th Field Artillery, U. S. A. Six, of the menpicked for Captain Trumbull'8 first eleven were selected by Walter Campfor his first team. Captain Trumbull gives his reasons for selecting thisunique 100 per cent Ail-American team.

When the Hun tried to force kultur down the throats of his neigh¬bors and acquaintances," and lost a few fingers in the operation, footballdid its bit. When the call came nobody had to supply an ear trumpet toany of the amateur athletes,of this country, and the response from thepunters of the pigskin vas close to 100 per cent. How well they playedthe game is evidenced by the fact tl^it about half of the men connectedwith sport who to-day sleep over yonder, arc football men.

ity in the land that cannot proudlypoint tq names on its roster of gridironheroes of those who made good in thegreater game. Among the first to seekand find the Great Adventure wasJohnnie Poe; Johnnie Poo, of Prince¬ton, and the Black Watch; Johnnie Poewho once sent the message to an elev¬en, "If you won't be beat, you can'tbe beat." Not a bad slogan for anarmy, that!Princeton gave other great football

players to the cause. There was GarryCochrane, end; Joe Duff, guard; andArthur Bleuthenthal, center; each anAU-American man.

Football Heroes FallThen there were Hamilton Coolidgc

and Philip Mills and Dilwyn Starr,of Harvard, and Alec Wilson, of Yale,and Belvidere Brooks, of Williams, andLloyd Hamilton, of Syracuse, and (i. \V.Berriman, of Brown, and T. W. Ashley,of Amherst, and J. A. Emery and C. A.Pudrith, of Dartmouth, and Jeff Healy,of Columbia, and Gerald Carroll, ofNew York University, and William B.Dean, of West Point, and William M.Nichols, of Annapolis, and a whole longstring of others known to tame on thecrosR-barrel Held. '

Yes, football did its part, and if i:is played on the Elysinn Finida whatgreat eleven must be fathered there!But this article do with !!.boyH who camo back. Not'the olderfootball men and the service was f IIof them.but the boys who, a ter a-, harmy or navy schooling, Stil! wiryoung enough to go back In the class-'rooms und athletic fields of their col¬leges and universities. From tho ranks

of these this all-service football teamhas been selected.Some of these men saw active fight¬

ing while others did not. 'Those whowere not actually in the gamo werewarming up on the sidelines, eager tohop to it when their chance mightcome. If they were in this country orin the S. O. S.-. rather than actuallymingling with tho brawling boche, thefault was none of theirs. It lay some¬where higher up among tho series ofpeaks that rose in Washington.With practically all the football menin the country from whom to pick, no

claim is made that this is the best all-service team that could have beenchosen. There may be better men forsome of the positions than those se¬lected, but we refuse to be drawn intoany discussion of the matter. Thoughour judgment may be questioned andthe echo of loud and scornful laughterresound from various parts of thecountry where football solons sit, werefuse to explain by indorsementhereon. These men are pood enough.They are good enough for us and theyare good enough for anybody.We do not call it. an all-serviceeleven because it consists of twenty-two men. All of us know the necessityof replacements. Neither has any(.Teat elfort been made to divide theselections into a first and seconi:eleven. There are two men for eachplace, Drtcl if one of their, happened tche on sick retort the other would d<jist about us well, or perhaps in sumcusí Kelter.

Many Player,. EligibleIt, would have been just ahout as ens;1.0 pick five men for each position as ti

I Ick two. Fur instance, there are suclplayers as Conovor, Wav. Uubb aniOslinrn. n. l'l.nn _..ntn- Hnhort<.nn #.

Syracuse; Robertson, of Dartmouth:Anderson, of Colgate! Weldon, of Lafa¬yette; Braden, of Yale; Harrick andHite, of West Virginia; Weston, Scottand Elliot, of Wisconsin, arid a battal¬ion or so of others who are just aboutas valuable football players as everdrew on a cleated shoe.

But, as I have mentioned, the rosterassembled should be eminently satis¬factory. We claim that this outfit as awhole possesses the capabilities to runwith the speed of a scout plane engine,to bump the line with the calm deter¬mination of a moving tank annoyed bysome slight obstruction, to pass withthe east of :i seasoned crops siiooterand to kick with the grace nnà fluencyof a doughboy voicing an encomium ofhis rations.

First, taking up the end.s, Higginswas a member of the championship89th Division team, Miller started outin the cavalry and Meyers and Brownwere aviators. Meyers, by the way,was a captain of aviation and wascredited with four enemy machines.

All of these men could cover kickslike a circus tent, could break up andget through interference, could receiveforward passes and could do anythingelse required of them. When they weredoing sentry duty on the wings nobodygot, by without the password, and theonly persons who had the word' werethe umpire and referee.For tackles we have material im¬

possible to beat and hard to tie. Allfour were army men. West, late ofthe 307th Field Artillery, and previ¬ously and later of Colgate, was a 200-pounder who could not only play hi?position in a manner to bring gri?fto his opponents but could also puntand kick field goals from placement.Cody weighed 210 pouT'.ds and carriedthat weight over the chalk marks withremarkable velocity. He made moretackles from down field than did theVanderbilt ends, and some of the menhe tackled in an open field later de¬clared that they must, inadvertentlyhave stepped in front of a locomotivethat was going sixty miles an hourCody was also a good drop kicker

Henry was so good on the defense thaithe opposing team usually pointed it.'attack as far away from him a* pos¬sible. Cubbage. rounds our a mosiefficient quartet.

McGraw Lqscs FingerAmong the guards, Youngstrom was

in the navy and the other three in th<army. McGraw finished the war minuia finger. Youngstrom probably blocke«more kicks this year than any line maiin the game. He certainly was a kieldestroyer, and whenever he loomed iithe offing opposing punters prepared t«submerge. Alexander and McGraw werboth great men on the defense and Barton was as steady and reliable a linman as ho was a sergeant of the A. E. J;At center Callahan, of Yale, was a

fine a defensive player as the seasoshowed, and Carpenter was s shift}dangerous lineman with the speed oan end. There would bo no weaknesin the middle of the line with thesmen there.

Williams owed most of its effectiveness this senson to the help of Goand one marine. With a larger collegBerry Boynton would have been baileas a star of the first magnitude. Hiversatility was remarkable. There wanothing that could be asked of a qúai'terback that he could not do. Stinclcomb, of Ohio State, was another gre;quarterback and did his full ohaiwith Harley toward his team's succèsHe was a deadly tackier, a fine opefield runner and had plenty of stuabovo the shoulders.

and Jefferson, one of the best backjof the year, and that is high praise.

Oss, of Minnesota, was the sensationof Western football. He is one of thefastest sprinters in that part of thecountry, and in a broken field he isabout as easy to hold as an electriceel. Yost of Michigan; Zuppke, of Uli-nois, and Richards, of Wisconsin, calledOss one of the greatest halfbacksthey ever saw. and they have seen agreat many. Hastings, of Pittsburgh,has proven his worth time and again.

High Praise for RodgersKodgers, of West. Virginia, is as good !

a fullback as ever hit ä line. He weighed108 pounds, had plenty of speed andplunged into an opposing line with theimpetus of a six-inch shell. He wasalso a line kicker and forward passer.Against such teams ss Princeton. Rut-gers and Washington and Jefferson,Rodgers gained a total of 799 yards. Hegained 393 yards with passes, 122 yardsin returning kicks and kick-offs and384 yards in rushing the ball fromscrimmage. Rodgers was a second lieu¬tenant of infantry.

Gillo, of Colgate, lacked the versatil¬ity of Rodgers. He neither passed norkicked, but he was ;. terrific linesmasher. When he threw his 190pounds whole heartedly into his spe-:ciulty tho members of the Undertakers'Union u«ed to smile at the thought ofcoming business. With these two full-backs a team could welcome any emer-gen-cyq that arose.

Yes. there may be better men. butwe are satisfied with this All-Serviceteam. It may be that others could pickteams of the same sort that would beatit, but in that case we certainly shouldlike to expend real money to have afront seat at the game.One of the most gratifying things

about picking an All-Service team hasbeen the letters from coaches, manyof theip in the service themselves. Tothe. query, "Which of. your footballplayers were in the service?" manafter man replied, "All of our playerswere in the service." The gridirongame proved its worth. The mimicbattle were productive of tfle spiritthat won a world war.

By A. C. CavagnaroThe novelty of seeing athletes striva

for glory and prizes on an indoor cin¬der track, which will be the only on«of its kind in the world, will be thegood fortune of the followers of thisbranch of sport in this city. Plans forthe erection of the dirt track havebeen approved by the athletic com¬mittee of the 8th Coasi ArtilleryCorps, of the Bronx, which is situatedat West Kingsbridge Road and JeromeAvenue.Work on the track will be begun im¬

mediately in order that it may be.«completed early in May to permit thestaging of a set of games before thefirst, half of the 1920 indoor Beaeonpasses into history. In keeping wit!«,"its big program of improvements, thecommittee intends to install all th«other athletic fixtures that, will makeit possible to conduct all outdoor trackand field competitions in the inclosurc.The athletic committee, whose aim it

is to put the Artillery Corp.* on asstrong an athletic basis hs the best p«'National Guard units in the metropolis,is headed by Colonel V. Austin, ex-offkio; Major C. tí. Webster, chair¬man; Captain John J. Quinn, the one¬time middle distance runner; CaptainT. Schofield, Lieutenant A. Mal'.or andLieutenant R. S. Bishop. Each mem¬ber of the committee is in charge ofdifferent forms of sport, with CaptainQuinn in charge of track and field com¬

petition.The size of the proposed amphi¬

theater will permit the conducting ofmany* sports 8t the same time. Theinclosure will be "00 feet wid? andfifiO feet long, with no obstructionsblocking the view of the .spectators. Inaddition to the 440-yard track, it inplanned to make provisions fo;- a 220-yard straightaway which will also al¬low for the 120-yard high and 220-yardlow hurdle races. The track is to bebuilt sufficiently large to allow theplacing of live hurdles abreast.The pits that prevail outdoors for

the weight throwers and jumpers willbe included in every detail. There- willbe sand pits erected for bot I: the polevaulters and high and broad jumpersand permanent ring.- laid in the dirtfor the weight throwers. After thetrack is given a sound foundation witha fine layer of cinders one foot of leanwill be spread over it. It will thenbe treated chemically to make the tracklightning fast.An idea of the massiveness of the

drill room is gained in the fact thatit will be possible to set up twenty-live lawn tennis courts, four basket¬ball courts, two indoor baseball dia¬monds and a football gridiron. Whilethe balcony surrounding the track canseat only 6,000 persons, provisions caube made^for accommodating 30,000.The arhletic «committee also intends

to engage the most rapable athleticcoach obtainable. Applications for thisposition from half a dozen veteranathletes are now under considerationby the committee, which hones to makeits selection known within a week.Among the candidates ir, a former pro¬fessional sprinter who has retained a

place with the best tutors in Europefor the past ten years. He is now inthis country.

Representative teams will be en¬tered in both indoor and outdoor tac-tivities. At the present time TheBronx regiment is conducting an indoorbaseball tournament, with twelve <-«>m-

panies qualifying for th«. champion¬ship, while the basketball title serie?,with thirty-four teams, will get underway on February 1.From the; baseball league the com¬

mittee hopes to select a formidablenine to represent the regiment againstclub, college and regimental trains

during the coming outdoor season.The 26tb Company, which is 134

years old, has entor«>«l teams in boththe baseball and basketball tourneys.and the members hope to continue thepace set by former company teams inwinning the majority of the regimentaltitle tournaments.
