Smith (Warr) 10:05. Penalties none. Year's Day, it was sadly disappointed. The Panthers debarked here not long after luncheon were taken to the Arrowhead Springs Hotel, which nestles picturesquely in the mountains not far away, and hardly had been quartered before Dr. Jock Sutherland ordered the players into uniform, hustled them back to town to the municipal Special to The Pittsburgh Press PHILADELPHIA, Dec.

19 The Philadelphia Ramblers took the measure of the Pittsburgh Hornets, 1-0, in an International-American League ice hockey contest at the arena rink here tonight before an enthusiastic crowd of 5000 fans. It was the baseball field and began a two-hour practice period which ended with no mean scrimmage We're going to work our heads off for a week, then we will begin to taper off," the doctor told the squad, and he was as good as his word. Warm sunshine and a fine turf gave the squad the most ideal second shutout scored by the Blue Shirts this week. The winning goal was scored by Clint Smith, one of the Ramblers' new players, when he rammed the disc past Goaltender Franks at 10:05 of the third period. Eddie Wares furnished him with the nec conditions to play in it has had since November.

IN 1 LaRue Still on Sidelines Bobby LaRue, senior right half back who pulled a muscle in the last practice back home on Wed nesday, was again not in uniform. Here's a bit of action during the basketball clinic at the Allegheny Y. M. C. A.

yesterday when Wilkinsburg High passers beat Monaca, 44 to 27. Lindsay of Monaca (No. 9) has just scored. Fuller of Monaca (No. 7) can be seen high above the players to get the rebound if Lindsay's shot had missed the basket.

The baby-faced Greensburger trudged along behind the varsity as he did during the hour and a half workout in Albuquerque, New Mexico, yesterday, and it was a question whether he would be able to get on the field before next Tuesday or Wednesday. LaRue's leg is still sore, giving essary assistance on the play. Thereafter the Blue Shirts contented themselves by remaining on the defensive for the balance of the contest and turned back every effort on the part of the Hornets stickmen to score. The first 20 minutes of the encounter were full of action with stiff body checking, but the visitors stood up like brick walls and broke up every attack. The Hornets had two occasions for a scoring possibility, the first coming early in the period when Doraty, left wing, eluded the Blue Shirts and drib- bled the rubber up the ice only to have it bounce off the end of the net and roll away.
