COLUMEBIA WILL HAVE FOOTBALL Favorite Fall Sport Will Be There Once More After a Ten Years Lapse. Columbia is going to have football once again. That much was determ- ined at a mass meeting of the stud- ents of Columbia college, held in Uni- versity fhall on the campus. The undergraduates were practically unan- imous_in indorsing the resolution that had been submitted by the faculty committee, but they did not take it ail with the best of grace. It is true that there will be football there once more, afier a lapse of ten years, but it will not be the football of other days. It will be a sort of expurgated edition, somewhat devitalized in_ its general aspect from the days of “Bill” Mor- ley, Harold Weeks, “Tom” Thorpe, Chauncey Berrien and other stars of the gridiron, who brought a lot of publicity to the blue and white. For instance, when the sport is re- habitated on the Heights none of the big teams may be met in the first five years. During that period the sport will be on probation. One student got up In the meeting and said that Penn- sylvania was desirous of resuming re- lations on the gridiron with Columbia ard others pleaded for a chance to play Cornell or other colleges with which there were closer athletic relations than some of the teams that will be allowed on the schedule. This was all out of order, though, and the students were obliged to accept what was of- fered them. Bvidently they felt that half a loaf was better than none at all, and when it came to a vote after an animated discussion there were only five who had the courage to stand up ard voice their disapproval of the res- urrection of the sport. As there were about a thousand voting students pres- ent it may be seen thaf the preponder- 2nce of opimion was in favor of foot- all. There is just one matter further to te settled, and that is the official rati- fication of the movement by the facul- ty. That wil not take place until April 20, when that body holds its mnext meeting. In reply to questions it was stated definitely that any home game to be played by Columbia must be played on grounds owned by the university. That means that any college gridiron con- test in which Colubia may take part next fall, or for the next five vears, ! must be played either on South field or Columbia Oval, at Williamsbridge. $21,000 EARLY CLOSING STAKES AT KALAMAZOO 2:07 Trotters Will Compe!a for $10,000 Paper Mills Purse.

Securities Show Less Resistance Un- der Selling Pressure. New York, March 12—The market for securities displayed less resistance to selling pressure today, some of the speculative fdvorites declining over a point on moderate offerings. Heavi- ness was most pronounced in the aft- ernoon, the motor shares yielding prac- tically all the ground gained during the morning session. Obvious manip- ulation in this class of stocks has provoked considerable criticism recent- 1y, although it is recognized that the motor industry has profited to an un- wonteq degree by reason of the war. General unsettlement occurred in the final dealings, when it became known that the directors of the Southern Railway had declded to pass the div- idend on the preferred stock, which broke five points to 45, two points above its minimum. At the same time announcement was made of the sus- pension of the dividend on Sloss-Shet- feld Iron preferred. That company re- cently issued its annual report, show- ing & very large impairment of carn- ngs. In point of fact, today's market was left largely to its own devices, actual leadership still being lacking. The short interest has made several efforts to capitalize new developmients in Eu- rope and Mexico and the construc- tive faction has held aloof, pending a more favorable turn in the general sit- uation, Foreign exchange was again variable, the feature beong Itallan lires, which were about 25 points under rates quoted a week ago. The break in lires was assumed to represent some- thing more important than mere buy- ing of supplies, rumor passing in the belief that a large loan to Itallan in- terests is impending. Bank clearings confirm recent ad- vices of a halt in trade at leading centers, the decrease in New York be. ing almost twenty per ¢ent. compared with the previous week. Local banks appear to have gained some cash on the weekly movement. Time money was freely quoted at re- cent low rates and commercial paper was on & partly with long time ma- turities. ~ ‘Total sales, of stocks, amounted to 225300 shares. Investment bonds were irregular, with more steadiness in somhe of the cheaper issues. Total sales, par value, were $1,995,000 Panama coupon s were 3-4 per cent. lower on call.
