The Hussars never A looked Mike a championsaip team last night, except in a few odd plays of She game, and unless they improve BTeally, or at least reiurn to form, the game on Thursday night will de- ede the race for this season. Although Karl Quinn was hit hard in the opening innings, and the Hus Sars held a fairly good lead until the 8th, the Tanners kept plugging away until their efforts were ruwarded, through the assistance of several &revious errors, with a tied score and then two runs to the good in the fatal fifth. LaRush knocked out a elean Bome run with Compeau on base, nd the rally was continued with Jimmy Quinn scoring a two-bagger.

A great deal of the credit for the victory must be given to Karl Quinn, Lhe pitching ace of the Davis nine, who struck out thirteen of [he siug- ging Hussars and never lost hope when his jown support cracked on several occasions. As ateam the win- ners played well although at fimes it appeared as if errors were a favorile vastime with both outfits. Neither team played the ball that they are capable of and the baitle was a disappointment to many fans who had hoped for a better showing after wajching the same two aggre- gations in 2-0, 1-0 and 4-3 engage- ments. Curran was not in his usual form in the box, although perhaps this pitcher has been over-worked this summer, for it is certainly true that "Lefty" has figured in more 'games than any other twirler, in Kingston. The Hussars started off tie open- Ing innings with a great flourish, sending three runs across the piate with the aid of a single, a home Tun, a three-bagger and an error of Art Quinn's, but from the third innings on, they faded exceedingly fast.

S. McDonell, of the university athletic board of control, application has been made to the league for consid- eration. The summer school will be extended greatly next year, in scope and duration, and with the great interest manifested in various &ports this summer, the students are anx- lous to branch out and affiliate wita the city organization. Secretary McDonell has been in- formed that the oniry of teams would not be officially considered un- til the annual re-organization meat- ing of the league in the spring of 1924, but that the application of the Summer school would be welcomed, provided satisfactory arrangements could be made with regard to the long schedule. Another factor that would enter into the situation is that the 0. B. A. A. requires a January 1st resi- lence Tule, with, however, certain STomptions for students.

WHITNEY PAYS ,000 FOR SIR MARTIN FILLY The crack western filly Happy Thoughts, by Sir Martin out of Gipsy Lass by Cesaerian, was sold by W. V. Thraves of Lexington, Ky., to Harry Payne Whitney, Saratoga Springs, N.Y., for $60,000. - Happy Thoughts came to Saratoga unbeat- en and wes sald to be the fastest thing seen hereabouts for time. She won the only which she started an deleatritied those who saw her tried 'on Sunday by covering a six furlongs course ith 122 pounds in.the saddle ney, who lost no time in buying the filly. There is much talk regarding the Prospects of a match race between Happy Thoughts and the coit sense- tion of the year, St. James. John Joyner, trainer of the latter, is not keen for such a race, as his charge has a chance to win $100,000 in stakes if he successfully Mills his engagemepts. Happy Thoughts has no stake engagements here. I. r---------- Hold Ycar-Around Training. Football and other athletic prage tice throughout the year is part,of a proposal submitted by D. N.
