By PETER P.

PALACE LEAGUE OPENS SCHEDULE Team 4 Took Two Hard Fought Games From Team 3 in the Opening Match—Team 2 Lost Three Straight Games to Team 1—Interest in the Match Runs High, Although No Exceptional Scores Were Bowled. —— The Palace Bowling League opened their season’s scheduie Tuesday eve- ning at the Palace alleys. The fea- ture of the opening night was the match between Team 3 and Team 4, the games in this contest being close and hard fought. In the first string Capt. McCarthy's rollers won by three pins and in the second string Capt Grose's team won by two pins. In the third and deciding game Team 4 came through with a total of 40S, beating their oppoments by a margin of 15 pins. The match between Team 1 and Team 2 was a tame affair, Team 1 having everything their own way. Cariess took high single of the eve- ning with 101 for total. There are eight teams in the league and matches are held every Tuesday and Thursday nights. On Thursday Team 5 meets Team 6 and Team 7 will line up against Team 8. The scores follow: Team 1.

YALE'S ATTITUDE TOWARD SPORTS CONSIDERED RIGHT College Student Council Voices Senti- ments of Student Body. ‘It required only an authentic ex- pression of undergraduate opinion to completely satisfy everybody that this years course chosen for public Yale athletics was the right one. Such an expression was given last week by the College Student Council, a repre- sentative undergraduate body which so constituted as to be able to vaice Student opinion pretty conclusively. The appeal of this body to the board of control for limitation of organized sports to students engaged. In some form of military training, allowing only those physically fit for both ac- tivities to represent the university in outside competitions, reveals clearly the undergraduate. state of mind, es- pecially as regards football. In every respect, this is both a de- sirable and an ilfiminating condition of things. There can be mo question that intercollegiate football, as it had come in late years to be organized on a hugé scale for championship public spectacles, was fast becoming a seri- ous interference with college work and a commercialized business of larse proportions that had no place in col- lege life. When normal conditions re- turn. It is probable that we can r: new our football programme on saner and less specialized basis. certainly hope so. This vear's changed conditions rather g0 to show, also, that the over- development of the game in late vears has also had its reaction on. the stu- dent body. In the face of sterner du- ties and hopes of getting quickly into the American army and navy, the old- er_undergraduates themselves have lost interest in evervthing that would interfere with that ambition. The re- sult has been some very scods old- fashioned games in the Bowl by the freshman eleven, which the university public has attended, however, quite as much to see R. O. T. C. and Naval L We: * MARKET WAS BUOYANT ! Gains of Two to Almost Five Points Were Made in Leading Issues. New York, Nov. 20.—The decision of the railway executives to place their interests with the government in the event of further labor difficul- ties and the more encouraging reports from abroad acted as a further stim- ulus to quoted values in the stock market today. 3 Gross gains of two to almost five points in leading issues were well sus- tained, despite intermittent realizing for profits. Shippings and standard equipments, coppers and kindred stocks were the chief elements of strength. During the morning and in the last hour trading was more active and troader than at any time since the adoption of restrictive measures . by jthe stock exchange. Much of today’s advance was made at the expense of the long-existent short interest. U. S. Steel, relatively in the back- ground recently, furnished much of the day’s propulsion on its advance of 1 3-4 points to 96 7-8, the highest quotation_since the early part of the month. Other stocks, notanly Bethle- hem, Crucible amd Lackawanna, as well as Republic Iron and Colorado Fuel, gained 1 1-2 to 8 1-2 points. _ Otls, motors, sugars and secondary cquipments contributed measurably to the substantial net gains of the ses- sion, together with war specialties, in which pool activity was revived. Rails were held back until the last hour by occasional heaviness in Ca- nadian Pacific, Union Pacific and Del- aware and Hudson, but tended higher as a group. Sales amounted to 765, 000 shares. Distinct improvement was shown by all classes of bonds The Liberty 1's ranged from 97 to 97.80, with greater activity in the 3 1-2's at 99 to 99.22. Total sales (par value) agsregated $4,925,000. U. S. bonds (old issues) were un- changed on call.

TITLES THAT CHANGED | HANDS UNDER FRAWLEY LAW Al McCoy Took Middleweight Title | From Chip and Lost It to O'Dowd. | After six years of boxing ynder leg- al’ control the game of glove fisticuils has again been abandoned throughout New York State. The last bout under the provisions of the Frawley Ia were held November 1lith and such contests as may be held in the futur will probably be staged under the so- | called “club membership plan.” An| idea of the popularity of boxing. even | under the restrictions imposed by the | law just repealed, may be gained from the fact thatsthe gate receipts durini the six years of the ring game amounted ‘to about $5,000,000 and the state’s share was close to $300,000. The official returns for 1917 are not | available at this time but the commis- | sion reports for the year between 1911 | and 1916 show that $4,502.280, wes paid | in at the gates of the various boxins | clubs located through the state and that the revenue derived under the | legislature tax amounted to 3! The estimated receipts for the present | year are placed at close to §50,000. and | the tax returns at about $40,000. During the period of boxing under law . two titles changed hands as the result of knockout scored | in the rings of New York city. AlL| McCoy wrested the middleweight titic away from George Chip in April. 1914 | by knocking out the champion in one | round. McCoy in turn lost his title in | « sensational bout under the Frawley law. when he was knocked out by the | St. Paul boxer November 14, 1917. The | other championship won and lost the lightweight title which pas from Freddie Welsh to Bennie Leonard | earlier i nthe present year when the | latter scored a clean knockout of the | Welshman in their third meeting in | i this city. ¢ Other bouts of particular intere: were the Wilard-Moran and the Me Farland-Gibbons matches which set a | record in recent vear gate receipts. | Probably the mosi exciting boxing | event under the recently defunct law was the K. O. Brown-Matt Wells bat- | tle. 'This was the first big held unpder the Frawley rules parently every follower of boxina for miles about New York was eager to| crowd his way into Madison Square Garden for the initial clash. The re- | a near-riot, calls for police reserves and legalized boxing began | ander discouraging auspices.
