HIGGINS Attorney-at-Law Corner Main and Shetucket Streets GOOD NIGHT, HARVARD! If Elis Develop in Rowing—Great Pos- bilities at Yale Following Last Sat- urday’s Race. 1f Princeton university had issued a special invitation to all the rowing pharpe and authorities on this special- ty of aquatic eport, there could not heve been a greater representation of the fraternity than ®ssembled at the boathouse of Old Nassau re- cently preceding the varsity race between Princeton, Cornell and Yele. The question wes not who was present, but who was absent. The ex- perts from all the points of the com- pass were in attendance, and the va- rious status of the crews were dis- cussed, opinions expressed, and the possibihities of what might occur at Poughkeepsie and New London next month were figured out and laid aside for future reference. _The Bulldog was a big surprise, all right, as the sharps had placed Yale for a sure third. It was fortunate for the Princeton boys that the race was held on Lake Carnegie instead of at other points, as the amount of good hard cash dropped Dby the Orange and Black would have necessitated the Tiger lads to have counted the railroad ties on their hike Dack to the classic environments of Old Nassau. The race was not an _illustra- tion of what Princeton could do, but an exhibition of what she could not do when she meets classy crews. As a Princeton alumnus informed the writ- er, Old Nassau was not out for sport, not for business. Judging by Satur- day’s results, the Tigers must have secured the sport end and the Blis the Dusiness end of the argument. How- ever, Princeton is dead game, win or lose, so we will have to let it go at that, though wishing her luck for fu- ture development along practical lines. The Ithaca crew, though good, was @ ten day pick-up aggregation. That 4s, the crew was a composite one, hav- ing only rowed together ten times. No. 8 was last years junior crew stroke. He was assisted by two of last Year's varsity and five new men who were placed to make up the requisite number to complete the eight. A lit- tle more practice would have done the Ithaca lads a world of good and made them a possible winner. Although Courtney was absent in body, he was present in spirit, as the old time Courtney ginger was in evidence and the cusiomary Cornell jump was right on the end of the oar blades. If this crew was only a pick up, as John Hoyle informed the writer, what the regular ome will be we can only sur- mise. As for Old Yale's victory, it was positively an eve opemer. None had counted on the Blue showing up so well at this stage of the game. Cor- nell was down for a place close to the front, with Princeton a possible win- ner. * Courtney’s boys might nose out at the finish, was figured out by the experts, but Yele was never consider- ed a winner. Possibly a submarine may have hit the Tiger boat during some part of the race and knocked the speed out of the eight. However, as o periscope was visible on the course, the torpedo may have feen fired from the bank If Guy Nickalls develops the Elis along the lines he is now essaying to work out, good night, Johnnie Har- yard at New London niext month, all right, Detroit Releases Catcher Peters and Pitcher Smithson, Detroit, Mich., May 25.—The Detroit American league baseball club today released Catcher John Peters to Chat- tanooga and Pitcher John Smithson to the Scranton, Pa. club. Both men are subject to recall. Babies! Soon they will be big boys and girls, and their faces will be only a memory. Bring the babies and-we’ll catch their smiles, NORWICH BULLETIN, WEDNESDAY, MAY 26 1915 DECIDING GAME AT STATE HOSPITAL —_— With the Academy This Afternoon—“No-Hit” Davis and Brickley Will Face Each Other—Teams Disagree Over Umpire—Student Delegation Will Accompany Academy Team. The Acaderhy and the State Hospital will meet this afternoon in the decid- ing game of their series at the state hospital. The first game the schoolboys lost by a close margin, and in which Harri- gan, the Hospital twirler, pitched gilt- edge ball in the pinches,’ crawling out of several dangerous holes. In the second game the Hospital were clearly outplayed in n ten-in- ning battle. As Pitcher Harrigan has left the state institution, “No Hit” Davis has Dbeen assigned the serving duty, and he made his debut last Saturday in a fast game against the Fort Terry team. The question of umpires has been & much talked topic in both camps. The Academy_absolutely will not listen to jetting Bl Austin hold the indicator, the regular ump at the institution, and the Hospital will not agree to Luke Riley. John Hughes has been suggested, but as a student of N. F. A. he is not eligible, although John has a wide kmowledge of the game. Joe Sullivan offGreeneville seems to be the candidate most fitted for this position, havirg had much experience in this Mne and knows baseball from A to Z. A large delegation of students will accompany the team in an extra car leaving the square at 2.45. Brickley will be on the mound for the Acad- emy. FOUR MORE RUNNERS ENTER MARATHON RACE. Entry List Increasing Daily for Y. M. C. A. Race Monday. Physical Director O. H. Nickerson of the Y. M. C. A. received the names of four runners for the five mile Mara- thon race Monday morning. They are C. A. Perkins, George Gireau, H. Ran- dall and H. B. Sharkey. It has been decided that the winners of The Bul- letin cup, which is the first prize, cannot compete in a race again, as it is thought that the entry of a previous winner might discourage some future great runner. The race will start promptly at 10.30 in front of The Bulletin office and will finish at the Y. M. C. A, ‘Where the runners will dress. PRINCETON PROTESTS Against the Playing of Hanes, Yale's Star Right Fielder. New Haven, Conn., May 25. — The Princeton baseball management has entered an informal protest against the playing of “Johnny” Hanes, Yale's star right flelder. This was an- nounced_tonight by the Yale manage- ment. Hanes is an academic Senior and this is his second vear on the nine. ‘While the Yale officials have de- clined to make the details of the pro- test public at this time, it is under- stood unofficially that Princeton claims Hanes played on the University of North Carolina team before toming to Yale. It is expected here that tha matter will be settled amicably before the game with the Tigers on Saturday. It is said that Yale admits Hanes played with the southern university. He played his ilrst year there as a Substitute and the second season as @ regular. If his playing as a substi- tute is construed to constitute a year's work on a varsity nine, Yale men said tonight that he would probably be de- barred from _playing against both Princeton end Harvard under _the terms of the three year rule agree- ment. Hanes was largely_responsible for Yale's victory over Harvard in the deciding game last vear, when he knocked a home run with the bases filled. In the deciding Princeton game he got three of the Blue's four hits. Fitchville Players Explain. In_a letter to the Sporting Bditor the Fitchville players who cut Man- ager Stritch of the Yantic team cold, Sunday at the Cranberry, in the game with the Nationals, have the follow- ing statement to make: To the Sporting Bditor and All Who Witnessed the Yantic-Nationals Game Sunday—We wish to state the reasons why we refused to play the remainder of the game and we think that the public will not only agree, but will up- hold us in our judgment. As every- one knows Gavitt started to pitch for us and he was hit hard, and the Na- tionals scored eight runs. With elght runs, three men on bases and no one out, Marra was called upon to pitch. Some position to put a man in without having a chance to warm up. He made a fine showing, striking out two men. Then the Na- tionals did secure two hits off Marra, but that was nothing to crow about, as he was just beginning to warm up. But then when our manager, Mr. Stritch, told Marra to play short as he was going to pitch Tracy, we thought it about time we taught him a little about the game. We think Saturday's game was a fair example of Marra’s ability against the Nationals, as they secured only one hit and only one man reached third. And then to think that Stritch benched Marra to pitch Tracy and the Nationals with about ten runs in the lead, we thought it was about time to do something. We have since heard that it was all planned by Stritch and Manager Hughes that the series was to_go the limited three games. Hereafter if Stritch wants to throw a game he need not try to get any Fitchville players to_play, as we are always out to win. It was a fine state of affairs when we arrived at the Cranberry to find the grounds occupied by another team after all the noise about the Yantic- Nationals game on the Cranberry Sun- day to think that Hushes had not even secured the grounds for us to play on. If, however, the public thinks that we ‘quit_because we were outplayed, we, the Fitchville team, will challenge FINANGIAL AND COMMERCIAL MARKET EXTREMELY DULL. Trading, Which Was of a Professional Character, Fell Off 50 Per Cent. New York, May 25—The most con- spicuous feature of today’s stock mar- ket was its extreme apathy. Compared with the previous day, trading dimin- ished over 50 per cent. Another fea- ture of the session was its plainly pro- fessional character, there being an absolute absence of public inqui Dealings were again limited to the So-called war specialties, with the dif- ference, however, that this group man- fested more or less heaviness through- out. Opening prices were irregular and this tone was maintained, subject to slight changes, until this afternoon, when gradual recessions took place in all branches of the list. The move- ment began with an abrupt break in Rock Island, following news from Washington that the interstate com- merce commission would resume its investigation into the financial affairs of that system. Final prices showed net losses of one to two points in a number of issues, including United States Steel, Reading and St. Paul. In the early dealings such shares as Republic Steel common and preferred, Pressed Steei Car, American Can and some of the coppers and motors made gains of one to three points. In the case of the first named this advantage was soon lost, because of the failure of the Republic Steel directors to take expected action on the preferred stock. Foreign and domestic developments were of e nature to give the market pause. Cables from London told of the poor success of the new capital undertakings and bore intimations of an unfavorable aspect regarding the tone of Germany’'s reply to this gov ernment. Revival of the Mexican sit- uation and possibility of an extra ses- sion of congress were among the ad- verse home conditions. The optimistic views of the president of the United States Steel corporation, as reported from the Pacific coast, failed to arouse interest in steel shares. Total sales of stocks amounted to 264,000 shares. Exchange markets were more steady, this condition applying to rates on Rome as well as London. Bonds were irregular, with weakness in Rock Island and Wabash issues. Total sales, par value, aggregated $1, 892,000. United States coupon fours advanced 1 per cent. and Panama coupon threes 7-8 on call. STOCKS., Sales. 700 Alaska G 200 Altis-Chalmers 5000 Amal. 200 Am- Ag Chem 1100 Am. 100 A B Cer & Fary pr .

Only Serious Hurts Will Take Men Off 21 Player List. Johnstcn, iy Daubert, Brer Within a short time President John A. Tener will present a rule to the National league for approval which will determine under just what condi- tions a player may be placed on the hospital list so that he will not count in the 2! player limit which was adopt- ed for this season. The large number of injuries which are occurring make a ruling necessary. The endeavor will, however, be to hold as near as possible to the spirit of the player limit, and the rule which will be presented will be so worded that it will be im- possible to substitute for a player who has received an injury of minor conse- quence. To accomplish this a clause wiil be inserted specifying a definite period that a player once on the list shall have to stay out of the game, regardless of the possibility of a rapid recovery. The period will probably be at least a month and possibly longer. Such a rule will make a club hes tate about asking that one of the reg- ulars be placed on the hospital list un- less the injury really is of a character to incapacitate him for a considerable time. Under the old 25 player limit the method of procedure was for the club to present the request to the league president, and he in turn re- ferred it to the mational commission. The new rule which is being promul- gated, however, will differ in_that the final reference shall be to President Tener. A number of players are now on the hospital list, smong them Johnny Bv- ers and Fred Snodgrass. The latest application in_this respect came from Charles H. Ebbets of the Brooklyn club in the case of Sherrod Smith. Broken noses seem to be playing a big part in the baseball injuries this season. Thus far there have been five or six, among the injured players being Birdie Cree, Poll Perritt and, last of all, with the worst smash, the unfortu- nate Fred Merkle. He was just recov- ering from a d:islocated elbow when he went into the game against Perth Am- boy, and as a result of the broken nose which he received then he will be out of the game for probably ten days. The break is said to be much worse than that which Perritt suffered a short time ago. The injury to Merkle caps the climax for the Giants. Chief My- ers is out of the game trying to heal a split finger. Snodgra still has his right hand in a plaster cast as a result of a split knuckle, and Doyle has a sprained ankle. There are also one or two others suffering from minor In- juries. MARHEFKA VISITS M'CANN. Springfield Colonials May Lose Good Player. Tony Marhefka, third baseman for the New London team last year, joined Manager Ramsey’s Springfield ¢lub the other night, but it begins to look as though there was not enough glue to the “joint.” Tony went down to New London to see Gene McCann. Now Gene, as manager of the New London club last season, is not any too well pleased with the invasion of the Fed- eral league’s minor branch in this sec- tion, and the fact that he immediately got in touch with Marhefka and invit- ed him to go down to New Lendon be- fore Tony even played one game with Springfield is not a bit cheering to the present Colonial situation in Spring- field. Marhefka's going will not break up the team. Manager Ramsey can get other good men, but the uncertain con- dition of Marhefka's mind reveals a condition in Colonial league affairs that can hardly be called a blessing. There are other fickle men. New London sold Marhefka to Syra- cuse of the New York state league probably because it figurés the Bastern association will get going next year, and in that case Syracuse would send Marhefka back to the New London team. If Marhefka were sold to an International league team and made good there, New London would have a Buffalo, Mon- treal and Toronto all have bid for the player. Marhefka wants to play in the International league, and it may be that the conference with MecCann concerned Tony's prospects in that direction. McCann would be mak- ing a diplomatic move in robbing @ Colonial club of such a fast man. Mar- hefka’s luggage is still in Springfield. In fact, he wired Manager Ramsey he would Teturn, but there is as much chance for believing that McCann will argue him -out of playing as there 1is that he will decide to stay.
