Princeton, N. J.,, Jan. 13—At a meet- ing of the board of trustees of Prince- ton university today. William W. Ro- per *02 was appointed athletic director with power of general supervision of sports in Princeton. Mr. Roper was also chosen head football coach for mext season, He coached the 1906, 1307 mnd 1908 teams. The board also cre- ated a department of physical educa- tion to which a professor and one or more assistant professors will be ap- pointed to control and direct matters connected with physical training and competitive athletics subject to the ul timate control of the faculty and boar of trustees. This action has no con- nection with the appointment of a new mthletic director, being rather to em- phasize physical training among stu- dents here. Glad Hand for Billy Allen.

The support— ers of the market seemed satisfied to have checked the fall in prices and were not in aggressive mood to push an advantage against the short in- terest. The formal announcement to the stock exchange of the action taken by the board of governors in suspend- ing the members of & prominent firm for operations in conmection with the Rock Island episode on Des. 27 last was accepted as closing that incident and a sense of relief was experienced on that account. There appeared to be seme relief aiso that the soope of the disciplinary measure had not been wider and more evere. The outcome of this case and changes announced today in the officers of the Rock Island companies were held to offer explana- tion of some of the recent liquidation of stocks or to confirm the impression of its sources which have been felt for ‘| some time. Disclaimers of the signifi- cance of these events adid net detract from their influence on opinions. The assumption seemed warranted that ex- tensive transfer of stock holdings had been under way in preparation for the ochanges which have occurred. A mno- table feature of the day's financlal de- velopments was tbe general but de- layed relaxation in money markets. In New York the call Joan markst showed growing abundance and there was an overflow effect in the time loan depart- ment, where rates were shaded under the offerings of additional _supplies. Large sums are coming to this osnter from Interior points and eavy re- demptions of bank notes are included in each day's sub-treasury operations, with corresponding gains in the cash Teserves of the banks. THe extensive liquidatien which has occurred in the stock market has contribted to in— crease the loanable funds f the banks and the cotton market HNquidation ylelds additional supplies. The influ- ence of this-on the speculdtive demand for stooks proved moderate today, but the resources thus assureil for coming new capital issues make a reassuring factor in the situation. “The decrease PR— Carriage and Automobile Painting and Trimming Cerringge and Wagon Work of all kinda Anytising on wheels bullt %0 orden PRICES AND WORK RIGHT, The Scott & Clark CORPORATION, 507-545 North Main Street. aprisa e 4 ——OPEN—— Del-Hoff Cafe Busimess Lunoh a specialty.

Champlin Again for Syracuse Crew. Ernest Champlin of this city, who stroked the Syracuse ‘varsity crew on the Hudson last year, is mentioned as a crew man again for this year. Jim Ten Eyck’s Syracuse crew will row Annapolis on the Severn May 21. The course will be two miles down stream. This will be the third time that Syra- cuse has rowed Annapolis, the other two races having resulted in victories for the Orange. Prospects for a good Syracuse crew this year are very bright. Of last year's eight men five are in college. They are Shimer, Putnam, Guibord, B. Fisher and Champlin. Claude Fisher and Hemenway graduated last year and Gere, who stroked the 1911 crew and made the *varsity in his sophomore year, has gone to M. L T.

Babcock Was First Principal of Evening High School in That City. New York, Jan. 13.—Jared Starr Babcock, the first principal of the first evening high school in New York, the inventor of the game of rogue and a stationer, died in_his home, No, 2083 Fifth avenue, on Sunday of pneumonia. He was born in Newark and was 72 years old. Mr. Babcock was graduated from the College of the City of New York, and _immediately became & teacher in the New York public schools. He later became a principal and was transferred to the evening high school when it was started. He remained there for 25 years.. Then he went into the sta- tionery business at No. 56 Pine street, where he continued ever since. He invented the game of roque,which is a scientific form of croquet. It is played with shorter mallets and there _are cushions on the side of the court. He ingenuously derived the name for the game by dropping the first and last letters of the word croquet. He | was fhe first president and a member until the time of his death of the Mar- tha's Vineyard Roque club. He was an expert at the game. For two years he was the president of the Harlem and was a director in the New York Ophthalmic hospital at Twenty-third street and Third ave- nue. He was also a charter member of the City College chapter of the Delta Kappa Epsilon fraternity. He is sur- vived by a widow, a son and a daugh- ter. HERGET FAVORS PERMIT. Fate of Gleason’s Application Today— —45-Round Fight All Right, Says Herget. John L. Herget, formerly “Young Mitchell,” the fighter, now chairman of the San Francisco police committee of the board of supervisors, has declared unequivoeall in favor of granting a permit for a 45-round boxing contest in San Francisco in July. He said he thought that the Jeffries- Johnson could be better handled in ths city by local promoters than anywhere else. Herget's committee on Friday will decide the fate of the application { made by Jack Gleason, one of the pro- moters, to hold a_45-round fight there. Gleason and Herget are lifelong friends. “The promoters here have shown their ability to bandle great ring con- tests,” said Herget tonight. “I have participated in some of them myself and I was always satisfied with the way things were conducted. I can see no harm in 45-round fights. The only argument against them is a moral one |and if the fights are not held here they will be held just over the county line. So what's the difference?” NELSON NOT RUFFLED. Welsh’s Claim of Lightweight Title Not Worrying Him. Battling Nelson is not a bit rafed by the fact that Freddie Welsh has laid claim to the World's lightweight title and will defend it in a battle with Packey McFarland in London some time next month. Nelson says that when the proper time arrives he will take on the winner of the Welsh-Me- Farland bout, but stipulates that he must name the weight conditions—133 pounds ringside. Meanwhile Nelson says he will go to San Francisco the latter part of,this month to begin training for the 45-round fight with Ad Wolgast on Feb, 22. ‘The Battler admits that he has not signed articles, but intimates that there will be no treuble on that score and that the terms offered by Pro- moter Hester and aceepted by Wolgast will be agreeable to him. Nelson has signed articles for an eight-round bout before the Memphis Athletie elub with a second rater mamed Bddis oft Jan. 21 for the purpose of trying him- self out. He laughs at the stories that he is “going back” and predicts that he will make short work of Wvlall But he-still refuses to cemsi ohal- lengs of Owen Meren and declines to gymmmmuherwwnnz Welsh or McFarland. Nelson’s friends hint that after the Wolgast fight he may go to Australia | o fight Unholz, Britt, Summers or me other Mghtweight, in which event it will be a long time before the win- ner of the Welsh-McFarland battle can get a crack at him. LAJOIE’S FIRST DAY WITH THE BIG SHOW. Philadelphia Writer Looked Him Over and Said He'd Never Do. Napoleon Lajoie remembers the first game he ever played in the National league, and he also remembers what one critic, now a club owner, had to say about his ability. Larry broke into the National on Aug. 12, 1896, the Sen- ators then being the Phillies’ oppo- nents. Another newcomer on the Quaker club that day was Geler, who is now the manager of the Burlington team of the Central association. Hor- ace Fogel, in his account of the ap- pearance of the two new players, pro- nounced Geier a comer and said Lajole never would be of any use., George Stallings, chief of the Highlanders, al- ways has been of the opnion that on Lajoie’s first appearance in the Na- tional league the big fellow swatted the ball over the fence. That is where George is mistaken. Larry did not get a long hit in his first game in fast company, making one single in the five times he faced Win Mercer, who was Washington’s pitcher that day. Mec- James twirled for Washington the next afterncon and again Lajole failed to make a rap for extra distance. Lajoie's first long hit In the National league was made on Aug. 14, 1896, and was for two bases. Lester German, now king of trapshooters, was the curver off whom the burly Frenchman got his first éxtra base drive. By an 0dd coincidence Hans Wagner's initial long swat in the National also was made of German, the date being July 21, 1897. The demon Dutchman also got his first extra base wallop in the third major league game in which he played. These were the records of La- joie and Wagner in_thelr first major league games: Lajoie against Wash- ington, Aug. I 1896, Mercer pitching —five times at bat, one tunm, one hit, nine putouts, one assist, no errors. Larry played first base in this game, which was won_by Philadelphia by a score of 9 to 0.,Wagner against Wash- ington, July 9, 1897, McJames pitching —two times at baf, no runs, one hit, two putoyts, one assist, no errors. Ho- nus played center field in this game, which was won by Louisville by a score of 6 to 2. WITH THE BOXERS. Jimmy Clabby has been matched to box Jim Howard at Memphis on Jan- uary 17. Al Kaufman, the California heavy- weight, saw his first snowstorm re- cently 'in Philadelphia. Mike (Tywin) Sullivan is schooling a heavyweight whom he predicts will make a good record in the ring. Some of the clubs in Philadelphia have started a movement to Stop sec- onds from being nofsy in the corners during a bout. Battling Nelson has signed to box Eddie Lang of Memphis in that city January 21. It only means more easy money for Nelson. The bout is limit- ed to eight rounds. Joe Woodman, manager of Sam Langford, has accepted an offer from Los Angeles for Langford to box Jim Flynn again February 8. The last time they met Flynn did not last a round. Johnny Kilbane, the Cleveland box- er, whe recently defeated his namesake, Tommy Kilbane, is deserving of a lot of credit, for he is in the game to sup- port a blind father and two small sis- ters. Joey Bowker, the ex-champion ban- tam of England, who was defeated by Al Delmont at the Armory A. A.. re- cently underwent an operation in Eng- land and now says he feels fifty per cent. better than he did. Having recovered from the knockout received at the hands of Bill Lang, Robert Fitzsimmons refereed a. twenty round bout at Sydney between Boer Unholz and Arthur Cripps, an Aus- tralian, last week. Fitz gave his de- cision in favor of Cripps and 10,000 spectators seemed to be in accord. Sam Langford’s proposed mill with a third rater named Montana Jack Sulli- van in Pittsburg has been declared off by order of the chief of police, who says Sullivan has no chance to win. Langford meanwhile has arranged to Bo to the coast, where he will meet Jim Flynn in a bout scheduled for cight rounds at Los Angeles on Feb- ruary 8. In December, 1908, Langford knocked Flynn out In a round at San Fran co, which probably means that Fiynn will be an easy mark in the com- ing encounter. Later Langford will tackle Gunboat Smith and Jack Burns, inferior pugilists, in _California, and will then head for London and Paris, where he hopes to meet McVey and Jeannette. Incidentally he will try for a match with Tom Thomas, the new English iniddleweight champion, who is said to be a good man. BASEBALL BRIEFS. Eastern league experts are unani- mous in_the belief that Pitcher Rus- sell Ford, who did phenomenal work for Jersey City last vear, will be one of the Highlanders' regular slabmen this year. Ban Johnson is out with a state ment that if the case of William J. Murray, the deposed Philadelphia man- ager, finally comes before the national commission he will vote to have the claim of $16,500 paid in full. ollowing the example of other ma- jor league clubs, Garry Herrmann Is planning to build an eniarged ball park in Cinciimati. Grifith has laid the groundwork for a winning team and Flerrmann thinks the Reds will make a strong bid for the pennant this year. Manager Dahlen of the Brooklyns has_decided to assemble his players at Hot Springs on March 4 and will keep them there until March 23. On the way home the Broklyns will play at Chattanooga, Nashville, Richmond, Washington and Baltimore, and will indulge in team practice games at ‘Washington park on April 11 and 12. Manager McGraw will take twelve pitchers to Marlin Springs, Tex., the Jatter part of next month. Mathewson, Wiltse, Ames. RAymond, Crandall and Marquard will be the regulars, while the men_are Bell and Daily from Springfield, Ohio; Parsons from Ma- rion, Ohio, and Dickson from Birming- ham. Drucke and Klawitter, picked up in Texas fast year, will round out the: corps. SPORTS OF ALL SORTS. The Brooklyn club has turncd Shore- stop Phil Lewis, recalled from Balti- more, over to the Indianapolis club. There are 25 men named Willlams playing professional bassball, 26 named Clark, 24 named Brown and 73 named Smith. Syracuse university has sent an in- vitation to Tad Jones to act as base- ball and footbell coach for the season of 1810. The Chicago Cubs finished last sea- son without a .300 hitter in the buach. Artie Hofmamn led the team with an average of .285.
