Yale’s crossIcouniry conch, defeuted
’E‘ed Crooke andJim Fitzgerald in the
ten-mile race at the Second Regiment
Armory last night. JThe race was the
feature number on the athletic ~cord
presented under the direction of the
New Haven Military Association.
Queni ran the distance in fifty-two min-
sins and thirty-seven seconds,‘disployI
ing remarkable skill all along the trail.

Crookc, who claims the New Eng-
land championship. opposed Queal for
the dirst five miles and Fitzgerald. o
native of Australia, took up the (bur-
den in the remaining five. During
i‘rooke's presence on the track he
was lapped three times by ‘Queal.
i"'itzgerald managed to- lop E 'Quenl
twice but his shorts to turn the
trick again proved futile. The race
developed into an exciting affair in
the closing stages. although it was
nusllyscen that Queal was master of
Lile situation. TheE‘Yale coach ran
true to form. setting it fast pace at
the start on! and finishing strong.
.iis successful efforts resulted in loud
words of praise from the few that

congregated around the track. Four
teen laps constituted a mile.

CAIR-PE-NTIER’S EARNINGS.

PARIS, March 10.~—The Carpeutier-
Jeannette boxing bout on March 21 is
expected to draw 160.000 francs ($30.-
hoO) in gate money. Cnrpentier, who
was 20 years old on Jan. 12, earned
£0 continues (it) cents) a day as a pit
'on six years ago. Since then he has
won in stakes in total of 431.220
”runes (86.224). in 1909 he won
920 francs (8184): in 1910. 2.800
francs ($4610): in 1911, 33.000 francs
($35,000). and in 1913. 220.000 francs
($44,000).

it is not likely that Carpentier will
to able to postpone his military ser-
zics for more than another year.
