Columbia Captnin and Fonvard
Will Not Play Tomor

Posperts nf wlnnlnir the lntorcolleKlnto
basketball gamo from Columbia, tomor
row night nt 'Welghtmnn Unli, looked
mote fnvornblo for the Hed nnd lllun to
day when It wns learned thnt Cnptnln
liwyer, stnr forwnnl on Columbia, would
tint be nble to play because of a broken
rib. Htistalnetl In practice enrly In tho
week.
In the Penn gnmo In New York, last
Saturday night, Dwyer scored 1G polntt
nnd was n big fictor In tho showing of
Mornlngflldo Heights ro"tblnatloti. At this
time tho Ited nnd Hluo, nfter seven fruit
less yenrs, defeated Columbia, 25 tu 22,
In two extra periods.
Visions of landing tho championship of
tho Intercollegltito I.enguo nro looming up
so fuvorably nt Penn these days that
thcro Is moro Interest In baoketball than
ever. Next Tuesday, when tho Venn tennt
journeys to Frlnroton, moro thnn 100 stu
dents also will make tho trip. Grent
enthusiasm has been nroused, and tho
committee In chnrgo has inndo plans for
a special train to leave West Philadelphia
station nt 11:07 p. m. Tho gnmo Itself Is
a crucial ono for Venn, nnd If the lied
nnd llluo la victorious alio will virtually
clinch tlio title.
Ted Meredith left for New York this
afternoon to run In n, special 100) yards
race In tho 71st Regiment Atmory to
night against n classy field, consisting
of Homer linker, Davo Caldwell, Joo Hlg
gins nnd Sid Leslie. Meredith Is In ex
cellent condition nnd should show his
heels to tho field If ho runs up to tho
form of two weeks ago, when ho broke
the world's record for COO yards.
West Branch Wins Intercity Game
Tho West Ilronch V. M. C. A. tenin, plailng

Trenton Y. M. C A., In nn Intercity irnmn In
tho former's gym. 62d nnd Smsom streets,
lnt night The scoro -was no to 31.
Tho victory for West umm h settled tho
Ouestion of supremacy between the Pnlla
elpiilans nnd tho Trenton nvo Scleral weeks
ngo West lirnneh traveled to Trenton nnd met
defeat by n threo-point margin, as two field
gonls woro rulod out because tho refcreo
claimed thoy woro not scored according to
tho Intercollegiato rules, undei which the West
llrnnchers were forced to play,
.lack Kellv, tho champion slnglo sculler,

BENDER CHALLENGES HUMANE
SOCIETY TO SINGLE COMBAT
Chief Declares He Will
Enter Live Bird
Shoot With Marker,
Regardless of Threat
to Jail Him
LIKE the majority of Americans,
J whether hyphenated or not, Chief
Charles Albert Uender does not caro to
sco a thousand bhlnlng slmolcons slip
from his trusty w allot. This sum is ap
proximately what his hurlershlp would
rcc'clvo In tho llvo bird rdioot scheduled
with George Marker tomorrow afternoon
at tho Federal League baseball park In
Pittsburgh.
"I don't enro what tho Western Penn
sylvania Humane Society says nbout It. I
am going to shoot that match with
Murker," declared tho Chief aH ho melded
a hundred aces In tho plnochlo ring.
"There Isn't nny law In this State against
llvo bird shooting, nml I don't Intend to
bo Interfered with by nny person or bo
clety regardless of color, race or condition
of feathered solicitude Let 'em go to
It, They can't do unythlng and that's all
there Is to It."
Speaks Feelingly
Theso few remarks were not spoken In
anger by tho Chippewa chieftain, but
thcro was no mistaking the fact that tho
promising Phillies' recruit uttered theso
fateful words straight from tho hcait.
Tho Chief has always had a little habit,
nt times extremely disconcerting to the
opposing batsman, of doing Just about
what ho set out to do. And ho usually
sot out to inako the would-bo hitter look
as foolish ns possible.
nut controlling tho hlde-bound pill and
tho laws of tho Stnte of Pennsylvania nro
two sopnrato oml distinct things.
Just ns tho Chief states, there Is no
law against live-bird bhootlng In this
State, although New Jersey and Now York
have such statutes. At tho Bame time, It
is posslblo that If tho match Is attempted
John H. Itltcnour. president of the West
ern Pennsylvania Humane Society, may
provo to bo a very bad hazard, as they
say on tho links. Mr. Rltenour says that
he will have Uender and Marker arrested
and prosecuted to the full extent-of the
law on the ground of cruolty.

Delaware River Division
Organized to Aid U. S.
in Preparedness
08 CLUBS ARE COMBINED
The Delnwnro TUvcr Power Rciundron,
local division of tho United States Power
8qimdrou, wns fc med last night nt a
mnss-meotlng liolit nt tho Hotel Walton,
when 100 jnchtsmett of S3 yacht clubs,
situated on tho Delaware lllvcr nnd Its
tributaries, signed up ns members. Tem
porary officers wero elected after a gen
eral discussion had taken placo ever i
the naming of tho division between two
factions representing tho two associations.
Tho mnln object of the formation of the
various smindrons, of which thcro nro 10
nt tho present time, l.i for preparedness
to nld tho United Stntes Government In
time of need. As put by Charles V.
Chnpmnn, of New York, one of tho chief
men In back of the movement, which was
started four 5 ears ngo under the aus
pices of tho Hoston Yncht Club, nnd tho
principal speaker, "the United States
Miner Squadron Is n mllltnry organiza
tion, which will bo of great eervlco to
tho United Htntes in cuso of war, In aiding
the navnl tosorve."
Dr. Uugene Hwnyne, commodoro of the
Tint Hock Motorbont Club, nnd sponsor
of the Philadelphia division, which was
formed under tho auspices of tho Schuyl
kill Nnutlenl Association, wns elected
temporary commander. Tho Philadelphia
division, nfter a warm debate, llnnlly
merged with tho Delaware Itlvcr Squad
ron, which was formed under tho aus
pices and leadership of Dr. C. S. Streot,
of tho Columbia Yncht Club. Tho other
ofllcers elected wero Horace CI. Dastburn,
of the United liont Club of Wilmington,
lleutennnt commander; Charles Helber,
former commodoro of the Columbia Yncht
Club, of Tncony, treasurer, and Willlnm
O'Donncll, of tho Falrmount Yacht Club,
secretary.
Tho Delaware River Power Squadron
will bo tho largest of tho various divi
sions, provided tho members which havo
signed up pass the examination. At the
present time, nccordlng to tho rules, 10
members aro ready to take tho examina
tion. Tho squadron will bo a permanent
one, rendy to aid tho Government at any
time, nfter tho next meeting, which will
bo held nt tho Hotel Walton, March 7.
Tho power squadron movement was
conceived by Commodoro Upton and It.
I Stcbbin, of tho Boston Yncht Club.
Tho first squadron was formed under tho
auspices of tho Hoston Yncht Club, nnd
wns a club division. Tho Portland Yncht
Club was formed In 1013. and tho same
year notice was sent to CO representative
yacht clubs to attend a mass-meeting.
Thirty yacht club representatives attend
ed the meeting, and tho United Status
Power Squadron was organized, to bo
under Government control.
CHIEF BENDER
bird shoots, but thus far tho shooters have
been nblo to block the passage of tho
measure. This means that If Bender nnd
Murker do hold their shoot, which they
probably will If tho Chief remains In his
present Btato of mind, tho courts of tho
State will decide tho all-Important mat
tor of whothor this sport comes under tho
legal definition of cruelty to animals.
l-'or somo tlmo tho Bender-Marker match
has .been advertised throughout tho Stato.
Ono hundred birds wero decided1 upon ns
tho proper target number. Uender and
Anrker havo n big sldo bet and besides
thoy were to have split a part of the gate
receipts. In nil tho Chief counted on
cleaning up n sum bordering on tho thou
sand mark, which ts ono llttlo reason why
cmirlen Albert Is bo keen for tho match.
Pat Moran has not been Interviewed on
tho matter yet. Very likely the Phllly
leader would bo loath to sea his hurling
hopeful In tho clutches of the "reserve
claws" of tho law. Nevertheless, Pat Is
somewhat of a shooting fan and per
former himself, nnd would be unwilling
to Interfere with tho Chief, even though
he were flirting 11 little too despor.ately
with tho clammy prison walls.
At nny rate Deader Is going tr Pitts
burgh. Whether he will drop tho birds
with his nccustomed monotonous regular
ity, or whether ho will be dropped by the
humuno statttto remains to be seen. He
strongly favors tho former, but humane
pcoplo aro often very Insistent on pun
ishing what they bollevo to bo a crlmo
against animals. Hence, the dope points
to a close battle between Chief and
the society.

Throughout Uninteresting Go
Llttlo can bo said of tho final bout nt
tho Broadway Athletic Club last night
other than It was a splendid exhibition nf
how not to box nnd that Henry Hnubcr
was otltmnuled by Irish Pat Bradley. The
latter, who Is supposed to have picked
up his knowledge of tho gamo In Auttra
11a, demonstrated that mauling Is his spe
cialty, whllo Haulier put up tho worst
exhibition of his tarecr.
Bradley would suddenly grow bravo
when tho refcreo stepped In to separato
tlio boxers, nnd whllo they wero breaking
tlio Irishman managed to sneak over
plenty of hefty punches. Haulier held on
repeatedly, llratlley took ndvantage of
this to get his mauling tactics tint king,
pelting Hnubcr with short, choppy
punches on tho back of tho lead.
