RKET HEAVY AND WEAK. N York, Jan. 16.—The concerted aud fairly sdccessful attempts of a confident and widely ‘extended short <t constituted the outstanding te\. e of today’s heavy to weak Stock icurket session. Eliminating the rails and geasoned h jals of tne steel and equipment in which recessions were rel- atively nominal, decline of 2 to 1 points were registered by the gene: list, with virtually no recovery at the unsetfled close. Prl’:es were reactionary - from the outset, contrary to the hopes of those trads who sought o extract 'a de- gree ¢t comfort from casier rates for loans and the failure of the federal reserve bank to advance inter- est and discount quotations. Thig action of the Clearing louse in limiting the interest rate on de- mang balances was accepted, ~how- ever, as a prelude to further restric- tive measures by the central bank, es- pecially as affecting commercial dis- counts. Minor oils and unclassified ial- ties again featured the initial decline, but the movement soon comprehended high priced oils anqd affiliated issues, notably Motor subsidiaries and ship- ings. plmermittent strength was shown by metals, tobaccos, International Paper. American Linseed and numerous sec- ondary transportations, ' but ' these were Jargely if not altogether sacri- ficed in the broader offerings of the final hour, the market ignoring the drop in call money from 8 to 6 per cent. Sales amounted to 1,050,000 chares. In the bond market the downward trend’ was again apparent, especially in Liberty issues and speculative rails, and industrials. were without feature, save for a de- cline of one point in United Kingdom 1-2's of 1937. Total sales, par value gated $13,500,000. od U, s 1: ds were unchang~d on call, STOCKS.

JEWETT CITY MANAGER'S VERSION OF THE GAME Amidst the cheering of nearly 400 royal rooters of Jewett City and the groans of 100 Taftville followers, the basketball game between the Cres- cerit A. A. of Taftville and the Jew- ett City basketball team came to a finis Thursday evening. « It was just an example of “slaugh- terers getting slaughtered” for - the Taftville' team, supposed to be the fastest quintét in-this locality, but in reality the fastest between Occum and Taftville, only emerged -from. the game with only 25 points hanging to their jerseys while the Jewett City five came out with 62. Ficm a spectator's standpoint the game was at times very uninteresting, for the Taftville boys were cleanly outclassed from start to finish. At the finish: of the first half the score stood 29 to 14 in Jewett City’s favor, but when the final whistle blew the "victors had bdosted the figures ta 62 to 25 of their opponents. For the high score too much credit cannot be given to any one man. The mighty Vickery "of New Lon- don, as a rule Taftville's mainstay, was completely dumbfounded -~and helpless against one of the cleverest centers in Connecticut, C. Benjamin. “W. Benjamin at right forward and D. Blake at left forward as a. general rule . had enough time to match pen- nies to see .which man would do_the shooting, as their opponents, White and Daley, were usually at the other end of the floor, evidently playing themselves. P. McLean. proved to be the black horse of the Jewett City lineup, caging baskets without the least exertion while Madden, Jewett City’s right guard. contented himself with shooting five baskets and allow- ing his man 2. Fans are looking forward with in- terest to the rubber game which will evidently be pla, in the near fu- ture in order to dispell any idea which Manager Benway may have that his team is_gifted with basketball talent. Ernest Benjamin, Manager the Jew- ett City basketball team. The score: Jewett City 62, Taftville 25. Timekeeper, Myatt. Scorer, Hyde. Referee, Flynn.
