Efforts to Break the Slough of De- pression Proved Abortive. New York, Jan. 13.—Efforts to lift the market out of its recent slough ot depression by a concerted drive against the increasing short interest in _special stocks proved abortive in today's dull and professional session of the stock exchange. A few of the war shares made sharp recoveries from low prices of yesterday, practicu- larly Crucible Steel, which was helped by the company’s favorable statement of earnings for December. Another enccuraging development in that quarter was the report that the ad- ministration at Washington had resg- istered its opposition to any legisla- tion aimed at an embargo on exports of munitions. There were numerous substantial gains in high priced specialties, in- cluding United States Industrial Alco- hol common and preferred, American Coal Products and other issues of kindred calibre, but the movement in these stocks was plainly manipulative pers for a time displayed a better tone on unconfirmed rumors of export orders at the new high price of 24 1-2 cents. During the mid-session the rise gathered further impetum from a demand for high class rails, includ- ing New York Central and some of the Pacifics, as well as Chesapeake and Ohio, New Haven and the South- ern group. Gains were largely, if not wholly wiped out in the final hour, when heavy selling of Mexican issues was resumed. Mexican Pe- troleum under an extreme decline of six to 110 1-2 and American Smelting dropped 8 3-8 to 108 3-4. The weak- ness of these shares was accompanied by many reports dealing with condi- tions in the southern republic. U. 8. Steel, which manifested an irregular tendency at the outset, fell away with other leaders toward the close, its final quotation of 85 1-4 rep- resenting a net loss of 7-8. Total sales amounted to 515,000 shares. With the exception of Italian re- mittances, lires falling to the new low reccrd of 6.77, foreign exchange was fairly strong, internatinal banks were reported to have received addi- tional installments of American se- curities for sale in this market.

GRAND CIRCUIT STEWARDS DROP MONTREAL Two Weeks Allotted to Montreal Split Between Cleveland and Columbus. On account of the war Montreal has dropped out of the Grand Circuit, it was learned after the annual meet- ing of the circuit stewards at Cleve- land. The two weeks usually aillotted Montreal were split up between Cleve- land and Columbus by the schedule committee. It was announced that ‘war conditions made it inadvisable to hold a meeting in the Canadian city. According to the schedule adopted the circuit season will be opened with the meeting in Cleveland July 17 and will close at Atlanta October 16. The National Fair and Exposition company of New York, was awarded the weel of August 28 tentatively, the stipula- tion being made that before the season opens assurance be given that the company will have leased a track. In case the company fails in this case E. J. Tranter, eastern racing enthusiast, has agreed to stage the meeting either at Poughkeepsie, Readville or Dover. After much discussion the recom mendation of the rules committee that three heat racing be made manda- tory throughout the circuit was not adopted. The.plan to Provide a $5,000 trotting stake race for horses which have not won $2,000 gross was ap- proved but the recommendation for a $3,000 stake for pacers under similar conditions was rejected. The circuit stewards alse rescinded the resolution adopted last year urg- ing the American and National Trot- lh’;g associations to alter the win race rule. dThe following schedule was adopt- Sae Week of July 17, Cleveland; July 24, Detroit; July 31, Kalamazoo; Au- gust 7, Grand Rapids; August 14, Co- lumbus; August 21, Cleveland; August 28, National Fair and Exposition com- pany (New York); September 4, Hart- ford; September 11, New York State Fair (Syracuse); September 18 and 25, Columbus; October 2 and 9, Lex- ington; October 16, Atlanta. PRINCETON BASEBALL SCHEDULE ANNOUNCED. Seven Teams Dropped—Holy Cross One of the Three Teams Added. Princeton, N. J., Jan. 13.—The sched- ule of the Princeton baseball team of this season was announced tonight. It contains 29 games, two less than last year. Seven teams have been dropped and four, Seton Hall, Holy Cross, Maryland Agricultural and Union added. Negotiations are pending for a game with the New York Americans, but % | the date has not been decided upon. The schedule follows March 25, Gettysburg; 29th, Seton Hall; April 1, Villa Nova; 5th, Holy Cross; 6th, Fordha: 8th, 11th, Williams; 13th, ‘Rutgers; Brown at Providence; 2nd, ‘Washington; 26th, Union; 29th, Cornell; May 1st, Lawrenceville at Lawrenceville; 13th, Pennsylvania 20th, Harvard at Prince- ton; 24th, Brown; 27th, Yale at New Haven; 30th, Pennsylvania at Phil- adelphia; June 3rd, Harvard at Cam- bridge; 7th, Amherst; 10th, Yale at Princeton; 14th, Yale at New York (In case of tie); 16th, Harvard at New York (in case of tie) Danielson vs. Putnam. The Quinebaug Valley High School Basketball league is creeping toward the end of the season. Putnam and Danielson are coming down the home stretch neck and neck, with the field stringing along behind. Last year Danielson would have none of Putnam and the league, but the year before Putnam wrested the championship from the team down the river. Daniel- son came back into the league again this year and has played one game with its most bitter rival, and Putnam won. It now looks as though the grand finish would see the two teams again fighting it out for championship honors as they are each consistently winning all their games from other teams, and stand but one game apart, the game that Putnam won on its own floor. If Danielson wins on its filoor when the next game is played, it will make the teams tled for first place. New rules have been adopted this year, which takes some of the speed from the games, but also eliminates rough tac- tics which caused the split with Dane felson in 1914, Perritt a Mystery. ‘“Pol” Perritt is one of baseball's mysteries. While with the Cardinals, especially during the 1914 season, showed up like one of the coming wonders in hurling divigion. “Perritt had everything. trol, curves and a Huggins, manager of the “When he went to the Giants I figured that he ought to finish one-two-three | I in theé pitching record lst. .

Perritt pitched a few good games for the Giants, but a rare few only. Many of his appearances on the mound acted as a signal to the oppo- sition to bombard him with a volley of hits, and Perritt was driven from the box with startling frequency. AHEARN-GIBBONS BOUT Next Fight of Interest—Great Attrac- tion in Middle West. Unless a blizzard or an earthquake comes along and spoils matters, the next big fistic encounter will be the Gibbons-Ahearn affair in St. Paul on Jan. 18. Great Western Card. This will undoubtedly be the great- est pugilistic attraction the middle west has been offered, and advance in- dications point to even a greater crowd than was looked for in December. The postponement of the fight was occasioped by a sudden illness of Gibbons, who contracted a severe cold. However, the star fighter yielded to careful treatment and has already started training for the fight. Gibbons declares ‘that he will not only be fit for this great battle, but insists that he will be in the best shape he has ever been in since he entered the game. The eagerness of the fans through- out the northwest to see this prize of- tering is being manifested by an un usually strong demand for reserva- tions. Although the tickets have not even been printed as vet, there have been requests for hundreds of seats, and many of the choice ones will be gone long before they are placed on sale. «Ahearn Improves. Gibbons ~will face another Ahearn from the lad he fought back in 1913. The Ahearn was a mere boy who had! not come into his full strength. Now he has outpointed some of the best middleweights and boxed good battles with heavyweights. In England he is a match for Georges Carpentier and Bombardier Wells. Unless Gibbons can stop his progress, this lad will be the logical contender for Les Darcy if the Australian can come here before the war gets him. PRINCETON LEADS. Tiger Athletes Top List of College Sports, Princeton leads the colleges of the country and indeed the world in ath- letics. Statistics show that but slightly more than 20 per cent. of the whole undergraduate body do not take part in regular athletic exercises. From the opening of the college in autumn until commencement four-fifths of the students. are working daily for the betterment of their physiques and the prolongation of life. And of the one- fifth who do not take part there are many who are physically incapable of engaging in strenuous exercise. Considerable List. A “partial list of Princeton's inter- collegiate sports, with the number of men competing, shows 33 baseball teams, 342 men; rowing, 8 crews, 64 men; swimming, 4 teams, 32 men; relay racing, 35 teams, 245 men; golf, 10 teams, 60 men; soccer, 4 teams, 52 men, and wrestling, 4 teams, 51 men. As one can see, football, basketball and other sports which draw large numbers of candidates are not includ- ed. If they were the list-would no doubt be much larger. Dr. Raycroft explains how this is done by saying: “One of the im- portant functions of our departmentt of physical education has been con- ceived from the first to be the devel- opment of exercise activities among the university students along _two main lines—non-competitive, such as class work and individual exercises on the gymnasium floor and in the swimming pool; and competitive, such as baseball, rowing, soccer, handball and other forms, both indoors and our, for which we could provide facilities. “We adopted this plan because we were convinced tkat such activities properly graded and supervised have a very important function in addition to their value in promoting healthy physical growth. In 1807 the students organized a basketball tournament for the'upper class championship. In 1908 an upper class baseball series was run in addition to the varsity work. The following years other sports were added until now we have a close knit interclass organization.’ HARVARD PUTS LID ON TALK IN BASEBALL Crimson Machine Will Be as Silent as a Mouse on Diamond. The Harvard baseball machine will be as sllent as a mouse on the night before Christmas during its games on the 1916 schedule. The anti-yapping campaign that was launched several years ago will be set in operation this year and the ban will fall heavily on any of the Harvard varsity ball play- ers who feel called upon to inject con- versation and vaudeville patter into the collegiate contests. The recent conference of the Na- tional Collegiate Athletic association at New York is responsible.for the lid that has been placed on all extraneous for Lean LeBaron . Briggs of Harvard, who has always been a consistent advocate of noise- less and gentlemanly contests, will use. his influence as a member of the Harvard athletic committee to, pre- vent the baseball players from un- leashing anything in the way of vit- riolc ons during the games this season.

Down gt Yale the supply of yapping will be curbed by the athletic authorities and the players asked to play ball instead of delivering short and snappy diamond orations whenever a new man comes to bat. Professor William Howard Taft and Dean Briggs had an inter- esting parley on baseball yapping at the meeting of the association dele- gates, and_the former remarked on the noisy chiding that occurred during the Yale-Harvard baseball game at New Haven last June. When Dean Briggs asked which team did the yap- ping_Professor Taft apprised him of the fact that one team was doing as much as the other. The Harvard players will in no way resemble the representatives of a dumb institute in their games this season, but all the senseless and fool- ish chatter that characterizes many college games will be eliminated, and only a few, well-chosen words of ad- vice and encouragement will be di- rected at the bpitcher hereafter, in- stead of the wholesale lots of inane verbiage. One thing that will be strictly taboo will be the joshing of the players on the opposing teams. None of the mock hilarity that is so common with some college ball teams will be tolerated at Harvard, and no criticism will be al- lowed except through the proper chan- nels when the team captain may lodge a protest with the chief umpire.
