BUSINESS MEN HAVE PICKED THEIR TEAM Lineup Will Include Many Well Known in City Li Not to be outdone by the “profes- sional” men, who have raked and scraped the city, to get at least nine sure-enough ball players for Saturday afternoon’s game on _the Academy campus, for the benefit of the Nor- wich Playgrounds association, the business men got their heads together yesterday and by sundown had at least a dozen men that, according to Capt. James L. Crawford and Bus- iness Manager. Frank J-Fagan, “ought to show the doctors and the lawyers that they still have a few things to learn about the national game.” Harrison Crane Noyes will be field captain, and Eugene L. Pattison, who was one of the pitchers in the Elks' game, Norwich vs. Willimantic, at Lincoln park last summer, will, it, is expected, g0 into the box for the bus- {ness men. The catcher will be Claude ¥, Pendleton, Jr, who, as he has Victor for his middle name, ought to be worth a good deal to the business team. Billy Eiliott, of Hopkins & Ai- Jen, will piay, and so will Alderman- eclect “Cap” Bailey, the man that at the City club’s game in Niantlc last August was guilty of two home runs in five innings. ~Max Karp, Jimmy Marg, Leo Kronig, Frank J. Aubrey, formér Councilman John T. Young, George A. Keppler, Louis Gotthelf and, last but not least, Manager Al Craig Taylor of the Davis theatrs, will be on hand. Ewald R. Von Hornig, one of Hall Bros. bosses, was found last night by the management and agreed to go into the game for the business men. All candidates for ‘places on this team should see Frank J. Fagan, at Fagan’s Smoke shop, the headquarters of the business men's team for the present. * The Playgrounds agsociation stands for a work in which practically every man and woman in the city and vicin- Ity; feels a definite sympathy, and the officers of the organization as well as the committee getting up the ball game are sanguine that a substan- tial ‘sum will be realized for one of the most beneficial movements now on foot in the city.

Gales Ferry, Conn., June $—The crews were given light work tonight. The varsity and freshmen paddled to the navy yard and return and finish- ed with a sprint of a quarter of a mile. The other crews had short paddles and practiced racing starts. 1t was learned tonight that Yale and Harvard have entered upon a “gentle- men’s agreement” not to paint the boathouses, steal each other's mascots or indulge 'in any pranks this year. Last year the Yale freshmen stole the Harvard freshmen’s pet goat, which Tesulted in retaliatory measures on the part of the Crimson youngsters. All the Harvard crews had long workouts on the Thames river to- night. The first and second varsity crews paddled nine miles—to the rail- road bridge ang return. The freshmen had an eight mile paddle with a short sprint at the finish. There was a slight change in the makeup of the second varsity crew, Busk being sent to the stroke oar and Brown taking the latter's place at No. COACH RICE SHAKES UP COLUMBIA VARSITY CREW. s Tichborn, Who Rowed No. 7, Has Been declared Ineligible.

Interest Would Have Fallen to Low Ebb But for War and Metal Issues. New York, June 8—Interest in to- day’s stock market would have fallen to low ebb but for the further ad- vance in war and metal shares. Sea- soned railway _stocks, including those on an assured dividend basis, were in light demand and invariably responded adversely to light pressure. This was especially true of Canadian Pacific and Reading, the former again being sub- Ject to foreign influences. The Harri- man group and some trunk line issues also fell back, Southern Pacific declin- ing abruptly on news thet the com- pany had lost a suit brought by the government for possession of valuable oil lands in California. Bethlehem Steel, which yesterday gave signs of reawakening, was the prominent feature of the day, rising 10 to 16 points, which exceeds its previ= ous high recorq by 6 points. General Blectric falled to rexvond to uncon- firmed reports creditiny the company with further large War contracts. Bethlehem finally lost over half its ad- vance. ‘Coppers extended their ‘ecent ad- vances quite generally, some as much as b points. The strength of this group coincided with trade reports which bore upon the enormous domestic and foreign demand for the product. Best grades of copper were quoted at a shade under 20 cents per pound, the highest figure in seven years. Obscure industrials and utilities, no- tably United States Alcohol, Distillers’ severely in nearly every round after the third. Langford weighed 192 pounds; Johnson 220.

Lowest prices were registered in the fina) hour, the decline following word from Washington that the govern- ment’s reply to Germany would prob- ably go forward soor. Publication of official crop estimates, which were fa- vorable in the main, brought tempo- rary recovery, but the closing was heavy. Total sales of stocks amounted to 455,000 shares. The most interesting item of routine news was contained in Washington’s foreign trade figures, showing a_bal- ance in favor of this country of $967,- 000,000 for the half year ending May 31 last. Bonds moved irregularly, within a very narrow range. Total sales, par value, were $1,742,000. United States bonds were unchanged on call. STOCKS, High 8 5250 Allis-Chalmers e 23430 Amal Coper 200 Am.

LACK OF HORSES __ROOT OF TROUBLE Owners and Trainers Say Many Are Not in Condition to Race at Bel- mont Park, Owners and trainers, to the num- ber of 50 or 60, met August Belmont and other officials of the Westchester Racing assoclation at Belmont park, New York, Saturday morning, to dis- cuss ways and means of improving the programmes and attracting more horses, No complaints are made:concerning the conditions of the races as framed by A McL. Earlocker, the secretary, although it was suggested that when- ever possible a selling race, at six fur- longs, be submitted, as that kind of event would draw the biggest flelds. In talking-of the conference Mr. Bel- mont sai “Few suggestions were made of a really constructive kind, and they could hardly be expected, in view of the fact that long experence is a pretty good model to follow, and to the fact, also, that the rules are framed to encourage and stimulatethe breed- ing of good horses. “There are between 600 and 700 horses stabled at the track, but ably 200 are jumpers and hacks, while the trainers reported that:many of the flat runners have been coughing or ailing, which, of course, has reduced the available supply for racing. ‘The conference was a good ome, as it was felt that we all understand each other better. It is sure that we will all work to the same end in an effort to provide better and more at- tractive programmes.” Steen Sold to Detroit. Cleveland, O., June 8—Bill Steen, TS A .
