DEFEAT CHflRLEROI IE1SIIBE TOP PLACE: Women's Trophy Play Is Scheduled For June 17-18 At Wimbledon LONDON.

Feb. S3. A. At meeting of the Lawn Tennis Assoria-t ion today it announced that matches for the women's international trophy will be played at Wimbledon, June 17-18. The men's matthes.

Great Britain versus America, are set for June 1S-19. The American team will be chosen front the players competing iu the Wimble-don championships. Both Teams Score Great Victories to Feature Large List of Scholastic Games: Du- OUT OF THE COLD. Aeroam the desert now our Bucs are roaming-Today their hat-bands all are dripping wet; McKechnie loves to see those foreheads foaming. For spring' a the time when baseball stars should sweat TVCVMCAKI, Feb.

After passing over the wind-swept plains of Kansas and cutting through the western extremity of Oklahoma ami a small corner of the Texas panhandle, the Pirates began to feel the big change in climate. Many shed their coats and vests as the train entered Xew Mexico, for the baseball tourists at present are in a latitude about 400 miles south of the Pittsburgh line, "I guess we all ought to be in pretty good shape by the time we hit that training camp," remarked Jack Onslow this evening, "for we sure have worked np a good sweat." Then John Gooch exclaimed: "Yes. even the engine is beginning to feel the heat, for I saw the fireman get off at that last stop and wipe some of the perspiration from the machinery." Victories Last quesne, New Castle, by Stars Who Played in First Clash of Schools in 1898 to Be Special Guests of Panther Officials; Locals Rank as Favorites For Important Tilt. BOTH TEAMS TO MUSTER FULL STRENGTH FOR GAME Night, Practically Sectors. CITY HIGH TITLE ON PRO Pitt will play flcncva toiiiprht at the stadium pavilion and, all sipnis fail, the contest should be a thriller.

The visitors have made a srood showinsr to date this season and realize that a triumph over he Panthers would be quite a feat, Carlson "will have his full strength available and will likely start Captain Parsons and Kowallis at forwards, Chase at center Last nifrht was clinching night in the W. P. i L. with two sectional titles decided, and another pair abont ready to be declared in, paving an easy way for the start of the bis scholastic champinship series that starts next week at the Pitt stadium pavilion. Tarentum and Monessen romped home with victories last night that makes them winners in their respective divisions, while New Castle and Duquesne, by registering victories, go another step nearer to the championship of their sectors.

Monessen copped its title by giving and Reed and Lisstelt at the guards. VETERANS TO ATTEND. The game is expected to draw a bis crowd. Included among the spectators will be four of the five men who played on the first Pitt or Wup team, as it was then called, that opposed Geneva In 1898. Four of the five men on that team axe still residents of Allegheny county, and have been invited to be guests of the Pitt management tonight.

Joe Thompson Colonel Joseph II. of Beaver Falls played center on that old Geneva team, and he will also be present tonight. is an alumnus of both Pitt and Geneva and was an outstanding athlete, at both institutions. The preliminary tonight between the Pitt Freshmen and the Vniontown High, and should be a thrilling affair. The latter has an old score to wipe out against the Panther Cubs.

MAKE SPECIAL PLANS. Uniontown is all wrought up over this game tonight, and will send a MeKechnie and his world's champs had a rather enjoyable day, but the banner features were those three meals, served at Pratt, Liberal and this place. The meals lacked nothing In their elaborateness' and the batting order called for consomme a la soup bone, southpaw spring chicken, bonehead lettuce and salary salad, sweet potatoes on the home plate, baked Adams apples, world's champion shortcake, apple pie a la Traynor, coffee just Wright and a lot of other up-to-date stuff. In one of the dining rooms, the serving was done by help attractively dolled up in genuine Bucco uniforms. The Pittsburgh athletes are due in El Pae early in the.

morning and several of them plan to bestir themselves from the straw at a premature hour in hope pf grabbing a birthteye view of the old town on the Rio Grande. As the train is scheduled to stop there for 30 minutes, one or two of the more venturesome members of the party contemplate chartering a taxi and taking a flying ride over into old Mexico. The half-way point between Pittsburgh and Paso was touched about an hour before the baseball caravan steamed into this city. Bravo Texas is about 1.456 miles from the training camp and a similar distance from Frrbes Field, measured according to the route taken by the world's champs. They still have all day tomorrow and a large part of Thursday to remain in their sleepers, the arriving time at Paso Robles being two minutes before 5 o'clock in the evening.

Most of the fellows tonight admitted they would be glad when the tedious riders ended and they can get out on the ball field to limber up their muscles. Johnny and Phil Morrison may stage an act called the retiin brothers, if all calculations run true to form this year, for both pitchers can do their best licks when permitted to use the Tiddlers' delight. Phil was just beginning to make the hall ixnform in the Southern Association, where resin is not prohibited, lien lie was knocked out by an attack of pleurisy. His last game was in the fall of 192 3 when he twirled Atlanta to a two-hit victory. He th-en drove an automobile several miles and exposure to a treacherous breeze brought about soreness in one shoulder and he was unable to pitch for two seasons.

Now he appears completely cured and says he never felt stronger. He stands two inches above the six foot mark and is several pounds under weight. John Cook's nickname of "Doc" appears to be appropriate as the big pitcher has explored many parts of the country. He has played ball all over the extreme south and the sections through which the Pirates now are passing, also are quite familiar to him. He formerly worked at bridge buildinc and was engaged on the big Kook Islam! structure that spans the Canadian river just east of Tucunicari.

At that time he pitrhed for the railroad team at that town. More recently he has been In the nut growing business. He has a ieean grove in Texas near Texarkana. Pitcher Eddie Brower, the tall slender recruit from Tennessee, is a healthy looking lad of 23 years, who was obtained from the St. Petersburg club of the Florida State league.

In the winter time he works in a butcher shop at Lexington, Tonn. The firm does most of its own slaughtering and Brower keeps his muscles strong by carrying large sections of beef. CLEGHORN IN GOAL INSTEAD OF WORTERS FEATURE OF GAME (Continued From Preceding Page.) came out to meet the attack but Tex Flipped the rubber over to Cotton and his teammate counted. Despite the presence of two officials, everything seemed to be fair in the closing And fully half the time saw two, three and four players sprawled on the ice. Leduc started the fireworks by spilling Conacher.

In less than 30 seconds, the Canadian stalwart waa counting the lights on the ceiling from a berth on the ice. For a moment or two he lost all interest in the game. Boucher elected to take up the fight, but he was detected trying to get rough with Mc-Curry and he was rested in the penalty box. ONE FOR C0XNY. Connys unwelcome collision worked to the advantage for the Pirate captain got peeved and when he got the rubber back in position he set sail for the goal with full steam head.

The wingmen gave him the right of way but Leduc and Coo'u came out of their shells to stop him. Contempuously outsmarting them by flanking outside Leduc, Conny counted without assistance. Kight minutes later Darragh by a pretty piece of fast skating and tricky stopping and reversing his field, crashed through the third tally. The second Montreal marker waa attributable only to the carelessness of the entire Pirate team. Morenz had carried the puck down to the cage and In the wild jamboree that followed the efforts of the Canucks to score and the locals to block the point, Conny dug the rubber out of scrimmage and made a wild lunge toward mid-ice.

But instead of being cast out of danger, the rubber fell into the only cleared spot in front of the net and P. Lepine skidded it over the line. I KITE FOR ALL. The last' five minutes was a little short of a free for all on skates. Apparently both of the coaches gave the win-as-you-please order and with sticks held high and heads held low the rivals icemen went to rags.

Of course these tactics were unproducive of scoring though the crowd roared its approval. Friday night the Pirates are scheduled to go against the Montreal Maroons in the Garden. New Brighton Loses To Beaver Falls, 25-13 BEAVER FALLS. Feb. 23.

Beaver Falls High school defeated New Brig-hton here this afternoon, 25-13. The Issue waa close in the first half, which ended 8 all, but in the second half the Tiirer defense swamped the Brighton forwards and their offenFe scored seven times from the floor. Farthing.

Miss Wills carried her team to victory virtually unaided, as her partner was in poor health and appeared on the courts only to oblige Helen and the mal enable her to play through for Beaumont trophy, which the California girt is very anxious to win. The Eng- liFh team was soon aware of Mrs. Aeschlimann's weakness and centered their attack on ber to win the first set.

In the next two sets, however. Miss Wills waa all over the courts, and played the match as if It were singles instead of doubles. WILLS GKTS OVATION. The American champion received an ovation from the largest crowd that ever attended a tennis tournament at Monte Carlo, although this tourney is still in its early rounds. Miss Wills' appearances on the Riviera are now regarded as trreat attractions as those of Suzanue Ltnfflen.

There was a time when the Knnch champion alone was aNe to draw larce attendances, and any tournament which she scorned usually was dnomod to financial failure, but the little California girl has now challenged the pre-eminence of Suzanne in tlKt hearts of the Riviera fans. Miss Wills' play in the tingles was not brilliant today, although her opponent failed to win a game. Mrs. Marriott brought five games to deuce and did not lose a single love game. The first game "of the second set went to deuce 11 times before Miss Wills finally won it.

CLINCHES HONORS. Tarentum clinched their honors by taking over Kttannlng in what promised to be a rugged contest and the Tarentum team winning by a five point margin demonstrated their class as leaders of Section V. Both Coraopolis and Dormont won in Section VII, giving this particular section a keen run to the finish. Dormont must play on Friday and a victory will give Dor-mont a tie for the season with the Coraopolis quintet. New Castle stepped to within one game of the championship in Section ill by virtue of their victory over Ell-wood City, one of their keenest rivals this season and runner-up in the sectional fight.

Duquesne added further conquest to their slate by winning from Latrobe in a stubborn contest and stepped nearer to the title In Section VI. Counted as one of the biggest nights in the W. P. I. A.

L. season, the contests last night were expected to produce a few upsets, but the dope ran true to form for the winning teams, and makes possible the playing of the big series on scheduled time. TO DECIDE TITLE. This afternoon on the Peabody floor another championship will be contested when Schenley and Westinghouse, deadlocked in the race in Section I of the City League, will meet. This contest, predicted to be the biggest for many seasons in the city circuit, will be the magnet for fans who have been following the fortunes of these two leaders.

This contest will start at 4:16 o'clock, and it is likely that the record crowd of the season for a city league contest will be on hand. Tarentum High Trims Kittanning, 20 to IS Tarer.tnro high rl Inched first honors in Section vt. V. I. A.
