Cambriige, Mass., March 7.—Har- vard's football squad for next season received a heavy blow today when three of its strongest candidates, Captain-elect J. A. Gilman of Hono- luly,’a guard; Thomas H. Enwright, of Fall River and W. J. Boles, of Boston, both backfield stars, were asked by the college administrative board to with- draw from college because of failure to pass the mid-year examinations. Under the faculty rules this means that Gilman and Boles, even though they are able to return to college, will not be allowed to represent Har- yard on the gridiron. Both have been in scholarship difficulties before. Enwright, whose preparatory school "| record as & powerful back and great drop kicker had led experts to pick him as a successor of Brickley and Mahan, still has a chance for rein- staement. If he attends the Harvard summer school at Squam Lake, N. H., for a required amount of study and passes examination in September he will be eligible to play. The loss of Boles hits the baseball squad as well as the edeven for be- sides being a fast halfback he was one of the varsity pitchers. Enwright al- so has gained a reputation on the diamond. Gilman's ‘withdrawal, especlally leaves the Crimson football situation in an uncertain condition, for Harvard now is without a captain or coach, as Coach Haughton's contract has ex- pired and he has not yet announced his_intentions for the fall. Gilman's playing last year made him a popular choice for the all-American football eleven. Richard Harte, of Philadelphia, who played end on the eleven last season, was second choice for captain at the meeting of varsity team _members which elected Gilman in December. Harte was the first Harvard man to score a touchdown last fall against Yale in the Stadium, when he picked up a muffed punt and dashed across the line. It was generally believed tonight that he would be elected to succeed Gilman. Harte is a candidate for the base- ball team and has already begun training as a catcher of Eddie Ma- han’s pitching. He was a member of the varsity tennis team last fall. The selection of a captain ress with the twenty-one men .who, played in the Yale game and an early meeting of these players is expected. The choice of a coach is in.the hands of a graduate football committee of which J. Wells Farley is chalrman. Mr. Farley was in New York today, but it was said'that he might return to- night. WILL EASTERN LEAGUE DITCH TWO CLUBS? Basebalt Men Do Not Look Upon 10- club Circuit Favorably. Strange things have bappened in New England baseball. Juggling that would make the artists at Barnum & Bailey’s circus green with envy. But there is a great possibility that there is one more grand finale to’ be staged before the season ends. It has been the experience of leagues in the west which have start- ed with a ten-club circuit that this would not work. Jim.O'Rourke, pres- ident of the Eastern association, now dead and decently sent to the Happy Hunting Ground of baseball leagues, said as soon as a ten-club circuit was proposed that it would ont work. This has been a fact in the west. It may be that the Fastern assoclation has seen the writing on_the wall and means to drop two of the clubs that now belong as other leagues in the west have done. That the newly organized Eastern league with its ten cities in the fold is prepared for such a move is brought out by W. P. Peters in the Lawrence Tribune. He says: “One of the most important articles in the constitution of the Kastern league is to the effect that seven magnates have the right to vote to drop two clubs if at any time it is considered feasible to do so. The purpose of this article is to pave the way for an eight-club next year. It was > . has mever been believed that the magu. 1ousiy considered a 10-club circuit, but there was no alternative when the report of the merger committeec was made. The report pointed out that the c cuit shouid consist of 10 clubs as sug- gested and proposed by the merzer- ites for obvious reasons. It may not be necessary to drop two clubs. The MARKET MODERATELY ACTIVE. Trading Was Largely Devoted to War Shares and Specialties. New York, March 7.—Trading dur- ing today’s moderately active market was again largely devoted to war shares and sundry speciaities, while standard stocks denoted occasional ir- regularity. The attention of the finan- cial commun continued cent around Washington, the debates over the armed ship issue being followed with absorbing interest. *Additional gains were recorded in the forenoon under the lead of Cruci- ble Steel and Bal Locomotive, h once more eded United s Steel in point of activity. In United States Steel was under persistent ure, though yielding only fractionally. Coppers_also moved upward appre- clably, likewise Mercantile Marine preferred and American Woolen Strensth of woolen shures was direct- ly traceable to the publication of that company’s annual report, showing an enormous increase in net profits over 1914. Oils were under marked restraint, California Petroleum common and preferred losing 7 1-2 and § 1-2, re- spectively, on the unfavorabl annual statement of the previous day. Company also manifested some heavi- ness on unconfirmed rumors of new financing. Other backward features included United Fruit, U. S. Industrial Alcohol, Motors and Fertilizers. Sugars also were disposed to relinquish some of their gains of the preceding session. The movement in rails was somewhat mixed, Baltimore and Ohio, Eri Southern Railway preferred and Sea- board Air Line preferred evincing marked firmness, while Louisville and Nashville, Colorado and Southern first preferred and Missouri, Kansas and Texas common and preferred were heavy. A general hardening of prices, ex- cept in petroleums, occurred in the later dealings, the rise deriving its impetus from the news that the house of representatives, on several test votes, had supported the administra- tion by a substantial majority. Indi- cations that the soft coal operators and miners were approaching an amic- able settlement was another favorable factor. Total sales amounted to 538,- 000 shares. - ‘Weakness of marks was the chief feature of the exchange market, but most forms of remittance, including sterling, were inclined to shade. Fur- ther moderate selling of Americans for London was reported. Investment bonds were malinly irreg- ular, but Anglo-French fives were de- cidedly firm. Total sales, par value, aggregated $3,520,000. United States bonds were unchanged on call. STOCKS, Alaska * Gold . Alaska_Juneaa Gold Alis Chalmers ctfs Aus Am. Am. Am. Am. Am. Am. Am Am. Am.

It provides that government cmployees shall work an hour longer each day without additional compen- sation.

As the cost of putting down a well is great drilling should preferably not be undertaken in a new region until a careful geologic exami- ation of the surface has been made and the most favorable area deter- mined.

The report, which is based on fleld work done in 1914, des- cribes the geologic formations and structure in detail, points out the pos- sible sources of oil and the condltions unfavorable to its accumulation, and gives all the evidence for the conclu- sion that the chance for the develop- ment of a commercially successful oil field In Cuyama Valley is poor. It is possible that smalil pools may be found in a few areas, and these areas are pointed out. Two wildcat wells had been drilled before the fleld was exam- ined by the Survey geologist, W. A.

At the monthly meeting of the Board of Trade and Business lMen's associa- tion Tuesday evening supper was served by the Girls' After a short business meeting, debate on Preparedness was heid. Messrs. Covert, Reynolds and Foss were on the negative side and Fenton, Costello and Shattuck for the affirma- tive. Each speaker spoke for ten min- utes. Rev. Mr. Covert was first speaker and said in part: We realize that we are on the unpopular side in public opinion, but right is not always on the side of public opinion. Look to the north. Canada doesn't want war with us. Look to the south, look at Mexico. Mexico doesn’t want to invade us, and we have no right to invade Mexico. Look to the west, towards Japan. Japan does not want war with us, not oniy because of commercial relation- p, but Japan cof not attack us because we have double her population, many times her wealth and five thou sand miles of water between us. Look towards the east, towards Ger- many. Germany doesn't want to at- If we are going to increase vy and navy at all it means that we must be able to whip all the countries of the world, that we are not adequately prepared to whip the world. Preparedness never bring: peace but war. Frank P. Fenton was the next speak- er and spoke for the negative, and call- ed attention to our unpreparedness and the need for same for the purpose of self defense. He spoke of the lack of men in both army and nav; of ammunition and means of making them. Mr. Reynolds was the next speaker for the aflirmative and said that after this war some natfon would be spoken of as the one who heiped to bring about peace. But that is this country was all for a large army and nav play a very small part in bringing about that peace. That the truest type of patriotism is not success at the ex- the pense of others, but is the stretching | out the hand of fellowsh!p and peace to | our brothers across the sea Mr. Costello spoke of the need for self defense in this country and the need of a large army and navy if we would uphold the Monroe doctrine and protect the Philippines as we should. Mr. Foss of the affirmative spoke of the great burden a large army and navy lald upon the people, affecting not the wealthy but the poorer clas: He spoke of the large sums of money that is expended each year for battle- ships and ammunition that if expended for schools and town property, roads, etc., how much better off the country would be. Mr. Shattuck was the last speaker and told of the large and powerful army and navy of Japan. He sald that there was on danger of the case of a large navy and army that the militarists would be in control He ve conditions after the il war as an example and told how the soldier of yesterday became the citizen of morrow.
