Yale 29; Cornell 16. Yale won the championship in the Y. M. C. A- basketball; league last night . by, defeating Cornell 29 to 16. Previous to the game Old Eli was in such a position that no matter what
the result, the team could not be more than tied for first place. The victory makes it Impossible for any other team to tie. as this week's games mark the close of -the season. It 'was a fast, clean game. Yale was out to win, as a good deal was at stake and the lthlcans could ' not ' stop the triumphant march , to victory. Wiechman did the stellar, work at locating the basket.; .tossing nine; from the floor and one from the. foul line. The game was much freer from fouls than several of the recent contests. Allison and Meyers did the best work for Cornell. Meyers went from forward to guard in the second half and secured three field goals after the change. 4 : Played Consistently. .The Yale team has put up a consistent game from the start. Carlisle proved the stumbling block , for the Blue however, and took both of the games played. The second went to overtime but the Elis could not land in the extra period. Princeton won
the only other game lost during the season. All the other teams were defeated twice. The first game against Pfinceton, which . Yale won, required overtime and a contest was taken from Chicago by the narrowest possible margin a single point. At the. opening j of the . season the Yale team was not picked by, anyone at the winner,. The team is not made up . by stars , but a' bunch of players willing to work no matter whether the game is being won or lost. Sev

Detroit Mick, June 18, 1906. DEAR SIRS: I feel deeply impressed with the tone of the Starr Piano. It has appealed to me from an artistic standpoint as being truly worthy of the high position it holds throughout the world today. I have purchased a Starr Piano for my own studio because of its superior tone quality and wonderfully even scale, which must appeal to me first and last in passing upon a musical instrument Conscientiously I can and will recommend the Starr Piano whereever I go. Yours truly, CREATORE.
