SPIRIT Yale Officials Sanction Eastern Trip of Baseball Team Subject to Can- . cellation if War is Declared. New Haven, March 30.—Two deci- sions were reached yesterday regard- ing Yale athletics. First it was an- nounced that the crew and the base- ball nine, which have Eastern week engagements would be allowed to keep them. Second,.it was voted by the undergraduate committee of the Yale Athletic assoclation, that, in case of a mal‘ declaration of war by the United States, Yale intercollegiate ath- letics should be discontinmed within twenty-four hours. At present. the plans are to allow. the first and second crews to go next week to Philadelphia to row the Unj- versity of Pennsylvania on the Schuy]- kill, April 6, and the baseball nine to depart next Wednesday for its sched- uled, Easter week games. Six will be played, if the schedule is carried out. It is believed at Yale that the game scheduled for Baturday will be the only home match here this season. Yale will open the season with the New Haven Colonials. Garfield and Munson are expected as the. battery for Yale, while “Chief” Bender, the former -American leaguer, and Clyde Waters, -the former Montreal and New Haven catcher will be the Co- lonial’s battery.

Miss Rosenthal’s. victory was largely due to .| her playing ‘the opening roles of the outward round with such skill as has only twice been equaled here In the last ten years by a woman player, and that has never been surpassed. The best indication of the grade of solf exhibited at this stage by Miss Rosenthal iy the fact that Mrs. Hurd went out in 43, which is medal golf | in the great majority of the big tour- naments among women players, and made the first seven holes in 36, and yet found herself 5 down to Miss Rosenthal at the seventh role. The latter made the first seven holes in par,30, and arrived at the turn in 38. .The Chicago player’s seemingly ir- resistible progress to an early victory was ' checked before the end of the outward journey. Beginning with the eighth, Mrs. Hurd played stroke for; strok her opponent and the fi holes ghe eigh; i ‘Hurd ,was. still 5 down, with only six more holes t0 play and without having | WOp § single hole in the match. Per- haps no one in the great gallery ex- pected her .to do better than halve the two holes which intervened be- | tween her and a 5 and 4 defeat. What the nervy Pittsburgh player did do | under those discouraging circum- : stances was to win the next | holes in succession, incidentally mak- llng 2 4 on the par 5, fourteenth, and reducing her disadvantage to 2 down at the fifteenth hole. The end came at ' the ' sixteenth, however. Mrs. Hurd was trapped on her drive, trapped again on her third, and recovered to within five feet of th cup, where Miss Rosenthal was waiting dead, in 4. Mrs. Hurd lost the putt and the match by 8 down and 2°to play. " LP.6.ONTOP Berlin Bowlers Win Two Games From Local Strip Artisto—Johnson Fea- tures for Victors.

Young Adair turned 3 b I\mn the tenth hole, m: ‘1t 3 up. !But Jacoby, fighting withithe perse- verance that has marked Als work all through the tournament, - decreased the lead to 1 at the thirteenth hole. ith a splendid reco: and a long w purteenth, and on the fifteenth s hole, ich he won. Then, with a 'aliced second shot, played with a ‘brassie on the. sixteenth, he . halved that. hole. His tee shot on the short seven- jteenth was into the creek, while Adair, {was on the green. Close to the bank, iwith a rock preventing his shot. Ja- coby showed his gameness by making ,the attempt, but failed to get his ball out. He conceded the hole, making him dormie 1. : Adair got away from the tee on the eighteenth in ‘splendidstyle, while Jacoby hooked into the rough. He played his second well out on the fairway, while Adair sliced his into thé rough. Jacoby’s third was into the woods again, while Adair's was over the green. Jacoby shot his fourth onto the green, while Adair overran the cup, and they were playing even. Jacoby putting boldly for the cup, the ball striking the rim, but being deflected. Adair missed his putt, giving the players a half and making the At- lanta lad winner of the match by the close margin of 1 up. It was a coincidence that the seven- teenth hole in the afternoon round should cost Jacoby the match, just as' the same hole in the morning round gave him the match when he claimed the hole on & technicality from Tom Prescott, who. 1y grounded his club % N B Johm G.

As far as could 'be learned, private banking houses with the ex- ception -0f Zimmerman and Forshay i dropped out of the market yuterdm morning, declining to quote any rates on Berlin. The nominal gpotations mentioned in the Street ran: fram 68 3-4 to 71 cents for four marks for cable transfers, but no supply of ex- change could be ' located at ‘these figures except .at Zimmerman Forshay's office, where ¥egular ecus- tomers were accommodated. . The firm had a small balance in 'Berlin, it was sald, which would remain avail- able for clients making remittances until exhausted. ‘While the elimination of the reichs- maik market was considered extraor- dinary in general banking quarters no sensational aspect was attached tq the occurrence. For months business between Berlin and- New York has been dwindling until by March 1 the Ualances of local bankers at the Ger-, man center had been reduced to' moderate figures, while the balances of German banks here were down tb a minimum. The volume of trans. actions in Berin and . Vienna change, at the same - time, smaller daily. in ‘theé transmission of wireless helped to check and the increasing ri sorship on cabled dis of England and Holland part in the work. o e B haa
