Cincinnati, O., May 29.—The option- @l richts of the _Detroft American League club to Player Pittler, now with the Chattanooga club, were to- day adjudged to be valid and effectl: but with the approval of the Detroit club the commission sanctioned the transfer of Pittler to the Pittsburgh club for the consideration of $3,750. This amount is to be apportioned as follows: $2,500, the optional price fix- ed for this player in the agreement to be paid to the Chattanooza club, and $1,250 to the Detroit club for the re- linquishing of its claim. The Chattanooga club claimed that fie asreement which included a deal £ ver Harper, was null and void, owing to Harper’s non-arrival. The commission overruled this claim and held that Harper's iliness was un- avoidable and that the right of the Chattancoga elub had been fully pro- tecte New Londor at South Windham. The New London Independents play two games at South Windham today, in the morning and afternoon. The batteries will be: New London Inde- pendents. Manley and Coyle; South Windham, Adams and Scribner.

Captain Murphy of the Dartmouth baseball team has enlisted according to a Hanover report—with Connie Mack. He will report to the Athlet- ics, so runs the story, at the close of the present college year. Murphy has been a first string catcher for Dart- mouth for the past two yvears, and is rezarded as one of the best bufkstops that ever wore the green. He is a strong, accurate thrower, handles pitching with good head, and is a heavy batter. Murphy has been very popular at Dartmouth, a fact attested by his membership in the Aphinx, one of Dartmouth’s two exclusive senior societie: Hartford Team Players Register. Hartford, Conn., May 29.—Players of the Bastern league club. with the ex- ception of Teneate, Williams and Ken- nedy, who are not within the required age, ‘officailly registered today under the requirements of the selective draft army bill.

In the first ga~wa.Dumont heid Boston scoreless until the ninth, when he was there is quite some feeling between these two clubs ever since last season found for three hits. Boston pounded Harper hard in the second game, while MARKET WAS IRREGULAR ing Prices in the Last Hour Wiped Out Many Early Declin New York, May 29.—Efforts by the short interest to depress prices in to- day’s irregular market met with in- different success, the list rising brisk- ly in the last hour and wiping out many early declines of one to isree points. Selling df long stock by trad- ers who chose to close out their con- tracts over the hollday was an addi- tional factor in the unsettlement of the forenoon, together with an abate- ment of public interest. The Russian situation, as disclosed by overnight advices, was one of the developments put forward by profes- sional traders to affect values. Initial prices were one to two points under vesterdayv's close. U. S. Stee] was among the first to yield, dropping two points to 130 7-8 in the first hour. In the last fifteen minutes Steel crept slowly up to 133 7-8 and closed only a fraction lower, making a net sain of a point. The belated recov- ery was accomplished on the custom- ary free buying, individual lots run- ning from 1,000 to 6,500 shares. Other industrials of like description made almost proportionate recover- ies, Bethlehem Steel, Crucible Steel and Lackawanna Steel accompanying the movement at moderate net gains. Among the war supply issues sugars were a pronounced feature at ad- vances of one to three points. Rails and shippings dropped dur- ing the morning with metals, motors, oils, leathers and the gas shares. People’s Gas fell 2 1-4 points to the new minimum of 68 1-2 but recov- ered more than half. Intermittent heaviness in Industrial Aledhol and a few other high-priced speclalties yielded to. extensive short covering. Pool activity was observed in the paper shares and American Linseed issues. General Chemical featured its particular division at an advance of 34 to 239. Total sales agsregated 1,025,000 shares. Bonds were irregular, the trend, however. being mainly upward in ratls and utilities. “Total sales (par value) aggregated $2,485,000. U.

BALL PLAYERS SUBJECT TO DRAFT Only 53 Majors Beyond Age Limit. The birth records of major league bali players show that a large ma- Jjority of the big toppers are subject to conscription for military duty. Of the several hundred players in the American and National leagues only 53 are beyond the age limit. Eight others will reach their 31st birthday during the present year. In rroportion to the total member- ship, it is doubtful if any other sin- gle iine of endeavor could furnish so many finely developed men for active military service as are to be found in the ranks of the two majot base- ball leagues. It aiso goes without saying that the withdrawal of those coming within the age limit for mili- tary duty would not leave a sufficient number ‘of peppery vets to keep the oild_game rumning. If ail the Red Sox subject to draft were ordered to report for duty, the only members of the world’s cham- pions left in the vard would be Larry Gardner and Coach Heine Wagner. Del Gainer will reach the age limit next November, and Manager Jack Barry may lay claim to the age of 31 _next April. Sam Crawford, Oscar Stanage and Hack Spencer would form a lone trio of Detroit pastimers to carry on the game should the Tigers be called to the colors. Ty Cobb will reach the safety goal next December. ‘The Boston Braves, with many veterans on its roster, would be able to hold more regular than any other big league team. Pastimers with the Stallings outfit who have passed the age limit include Johnny Evers, Ed Konetchy, Sherwood MagZee, Pat Ra- gon, Ed Reulbach and Tom Hughes. Considerable class to this sextette and Manager George cou'd use them to advanfage in forming another band of Braves. A general draft of the Giants would leave Napoleon MGraw with an army of five to battle for the XNational league pennant. The Giasts who would still be able to cavort at tbe Polo Grounds are Heine Zimmerman, Capt. Charley Herzog, Slim Sallee, John Lobert and George Gibson. Five of the Dodgers and four Phil- lies would escape the draft. Of the Phils, George Paskert, Gavvy Crav- , Jimmy Lavender and Bobby Byrne have reached the age where nothing remains for them but to keep on pastiming. Grover Cleveand Al- exander, the Phils’ great twirler, will reach his 3ist birthday next Febru- a Fred Luderus, also of the Phils, will be 31 next September. The Dodgers would be able to hold Mike Mowrey, Chief Meyers, Ivan Ol- son, Jack Coombs and Jake Daubert. ot a bad Iot of entertainers, but Uncle Wilbur would have to go some to cop another pennant with them. LONG RUNS ARE PROOF THAT TRAPSHOOTERS ARE IMPROVING Nearly 7000 Scores of 50 or Better Made in Past Two Years, 480 of Which Number Wers 100 or Better. By Peter P. Carney, Editor National Sports Syndicate. With the overwhelming increase in the number of trapshooters each vear the quality improves, too. This statement is born out by the statistics of long run records kept by the duPont Company beginninz in 1315 when that company inaugurated its long run trophy proposition for tournaments registered with the In- terstate Association. This plan_is being continued this year with a few minor changes. For long runs in 1915 and 1916, the duPont Company gave out 11§ watches, 1685 watch fobs and 4947 bars, S0 of the watches were won by in 1916, 195 runs of 100 or better were tallled in !{5 and 285 in 1916—which €ives us the grand total of 2791 runs of &0 or better in 1915 and 2845 c 50 or better in 1916, or 6335 runs o better In iwo years. Y The best previous records obtainable show that 107 runs of 100 or better were made in 1911; 115 in 1912; 135 in 1913, and 12§ in'1914. Previous to 1314 no record was kept on the runs below 100. In 1914, 429 shooters com- piled 1142 scores of 50 or better and 405 shooters compiled the marks of 50 or better in 1915. During the operatio nof long run trophy plan in 1917, a wateh fob will be awarded to amateur and profes- sional (rapshooters for their fght straight run of 59 targets or over. For cach additional run of 50 or over the shooter will receive a bar for attach- ment to his fob. When an amateur bas made 15 runs of 50 straight or better, he is awarded a 17-jewsled watch. A professional is reguircd to make 25 long runs in order to win one of these. trophi As soon as a shooter has made a sufficient number of runs to win a atch, he may start competing for another. It should be understood, however, that the long run trophy winner 'has the privilcge of _taking merchandise to the value of $30 in- stead of the second or third watch which he may win. During 1917 instead of awarding the £hooter a second long run trophy fob for his sixteenth run, he will be given a pair of cuff links. Should he make a_sufficient number of long runs to entitle him to a. third fob, he will be sent a scarf pin instead of another fob. A bar will also be sent to the €hooter in addition to the cuff linki or scarf pin for attachment to his first fob. If a shooter won one or more fobs during 1915 and 1916, he will not be awarded another one in 1917. Cuff links will be sent him in- stead of the first fob he wins and a scarf pin in lieu of the second. This ruling applies to amateurs and pro- fessionais alike.
