Academy team for the opening game of the sea- son. The teams are about evenly matched ‘and a good game should de- velop. Meek of the Academy will op- pose Simcox on'the mound. - 1t is expected that there will be a good crowd at the game, as it is a benefit affair for the Red Cross. The managements of the two teams have agreed to turn over the entire gate receipts of the first school game of the -season to . this organization which is doing such fine work among our sol- diers and sailors. B The Shore Line. team held their final practice of the season at Taftville on Tuesday and Manager Flynn and Cap- tain Simcox are well pleased with their chances for today. ~Simcox and Yer- rington will do the twirling for the carmen, with either Houston or Hooker on the receiving end. . The other men on the team include Flynn 1b, Mellor 2, Barber ss, Clish 3b, Caplet If. Miner cof, Davistor Wheeler rf. The batting order has not yet been decided upon. The Academy held their final prac- tice before the game Tuesday after- noon on_the campus. - The schoolboys were ‘well drilled in batting and field- ing and should give a good account of themselves against their opponents. The infleld is learning .to handle the ball cleanly and work , together. The one criticism of the outfield, which ap- plies to the whole team, is the lack of heavy hitters. The team will probably start with Meek on the mound, Couni- han behind_the bat, Brassill ib, Me- Knight 2b, Sayles 3b, Ringland ss, and Hull, Keenan, Brewer or Campbell in the outfield. ~Hull will lead off in the batting order, followed by McKnight.

The team is allowed three afternoons a week absence from mili- tary drill and these are Tuesdays. Thursdays and Saturdays. Instead of practicing two afternoons this week, the team may play Holy Cross Thurs- day ‘and Dartmouth Saturday. No mid-week game has been scheduled but because the schedule contains only ten games an execption may be made in order that not one shall be missed by bad weather. © Shore Line Team Challenges.

STOCK PRICES FLUCTUATED But Operations Were Confined to Re- cognized Leaders. New York, April 16—On a further increase in oOperations, confined, how-" ever, to the recognized leaders, today's stock market added one to two points to yesterday's gains. Prices reacted, however, after short covering had run its_course. War news was mixed when not ob- scure, but the net result seemed to favor the long account, chiefly because of the market's technical position. An- other slump in the cotton market was not without its sentimental U. S. Steel contributed about cent. to the day’s total, closing at a slight net gain after having vielded a point. = Pools were a little more ven- turesome, especially in minor special- ties such as American Ice common and preferred, Malting Common and preferred, Linseed preferred, Ameri- can Can ang the tobaccos, but in those issues early gains suffered variable impairment. Chino was the only metal issue to manifest more than slight strength, and motors, oils and shippings reacted 1 to & points, General Motors, how- ever, making up the greater part of its 2 1-2 point decline. The movement in rails was unus- ually circurhscribed, Reading and Ca- nadian Pacific featuring the invest- ment group at net recessions of 3-4 and 1 1-4 points, respectivély. Sales amounted to 360000 shares. Spanish exchange at & premium of almost 60 per cent. was the only fea- ture of the market for foreign bills. Bonds were barely steady,. Liberty issues tending higher, with moderate reactions in the international divi ion. Sales, par value, aggregated $4,- 230,000, ‘ . S. bonds, old issues, were.unal- tere¢ on call. STOCKS.

St. Louis, April 16.—Grover Cleve- tand Alexandér, who pitched the open- ing ‘game of the season for the Chi- cago Nationals in_their game today with the St. Louis Nationals, upon his arrival lere today, said that he had telegrapheq his draft board at St Paul, Neb,, asking for permission to join 'the navy. This d€ciston followed a visit yesterday st the Great Lukes naval training_station. There is little chance. for -Grover Cleveland Alexander to enter the navy instead of going with the April draft quota from Howard county, Nebraska, his home, according to a statement made here today by Captain Walter L. Anderson, representative in Ne- braska of Provost Marshal General Crowder. Unless Alexander is able {o secure permission to join the mnavy from 'military authorities at. Wash- ington, he will have to g0 to Camp Funston. 3 “‘Alexander had all winter to join e navy if he wanted to,” Captain Anderson sald. “Our general orders are_to release mo registrants to the navy after they have been called for duty in the army, and there is no rea- son” why Alexander showld be taken out of bis present quota.” HERZOG COMES TO TERMS WITH BRAVES Ex-Giant Captain Reaches Agreement With President Haughton. Charles Herzog, one time captain of the Giants, by signing a contract with the Boston Braves early today, re- lieved the tension of an awkward sit- uation and left Manager McGraw free to make use of the services of Larry Doyle and Garnes. Herzog came to terms with Percy Haughton, president of the Boston club, who intimated that the agreement was in the nature of a compromise. Herzog will join the Braves in Philadelphia.

Now this procedure is all ver: well, but it costs considerabie money In some cases the buyer agreed to stand part of the extra express charges in order to have his car when he wanted it. But every buyer is not willing to assume this obligation, therefore he must wait for the freight to come in. However, there is one solution to the car shipping problem and local dealers discovered it two or three vears ago—and that is over- land shipment. For the purpose ‘of illustration let us assume that a car represented in this city is manufac- tured in Detroit. The only thing the agent here can do is to dispatch.a number of men to Detroit by train and have them run the cars over the road to this ci All things consid- ered, this means a trip of about 900 miles. But it has to be done. Here is one way in which the far- mer can answer the call the world is extending to him this year to gger crops. He can drive a kero- ene motor to the limit all day where he could not attempt to push his work with horses. As one Nebraska farm- er said here we need the tractor most, if for nothing else is for the summer plowing. This is work that kills our horses, and if e turned over two or three acres a day we would say we had good luck, but with a_tractor pulling two, three or more plows, an acre an hour is common, and we don't have to worry over tir ing .out the outfit on:hot days H’ as fresh at five o'clock in the after- noon as at five o'clock in_the morn- ing and it can stay on the job day after day until the work is done. The present extensive use of motor trucks, away beyond and predication of a year ago, has prompted ma speak of the motor truck as the raii- road’s future competitor. But h close analysis of transportation conditions shows it to be the railroad's able ally instead of its competitor. ne reason for this is that the type ce the railroad least efficiently is the type the motor truc ders. And if our railroads can De freed of the burden of this un- suitable service, their capacity for profitable operation can be immensely increased. 2 It is conceded that the short haul is the least profitable source of railroad revenue. It usually involves partial loads, whether in passenger or freight service, and frequent stops, which are expensive. In such service the rai road operates far below its full effic ency, and consequently at unnecessary expense. Here is the service in which the motor truck can operate gr to the r s benefit. The unit load of the motor truck is smaller than that of the rai ad. Its operation is more flexible. It does not require ex- pensive trackage and terminals. The long haul, with ful] car loads constitutes the railroad’s greatest earn- ing power. So that by assuming the short haul. the motor truck releases rolling stock for the more necessary and more profitable long haul. 1t is fortunate that just at this time when such a- wonderful opportunity is opening up for the motor truck, pneu- matic tire equipment for truck service, IN THE AUTOMOBILE WORLD Auto Dealers Are Having Hard Time Securing Cars From Western Factol-'-—Miny Cars Being Shipp\d Overland Under Their Qwn ly errors by the visitors enabled Cin-| evened up the series with New York Power. cinnati to win the opening game of the pénson Eere today 1'fmamt :7“6 OPitis{ result of an eighth inning batting ral- urghs by a score of 2 to 0.
