New TYork, Dee. 15—The New York \ unl Boston clubs of the American today completed a trade in- vul eight players, .catcher “Muddy™ Ri tcher Herb Thormahlen, Sec- ond Baseman “Del” Pratt and Out- nald* Sam Vick of the Yankees go to Red Sox in_exchange for Catcher Wnly ‘hang, Pitchers Harry Harper fi g l-loyl and Infielder lflks ] 3 The tralle was engincered h;‘ Colcnel Jacob Ruppert and Harry pregidents of the New York lnd Bel- ton & clubs, respectively. They an- nounced no money was involved in the transaction. Manager Huggins of the Yankees took part in the negotia- tions and both sides agreed the trade will result in strengthening the two clubs. It was made on thé condition that both clubs assume the responsi- bility of signing the players. v Del Pratt is the only one of the play- ers about whom there seems |to doubt about playing next séason. He signed a contract as athletic coach with a western university at the con- clusion of last season and declared his intention to quit baseball. The Yan- kee management, however, today ex- pressed confidence that Pratt will be ready to get into the game when the 1921 season opens. Manager Huggins said the deal was made primarily for the purpose of giv- ing each club a player that both were badly in need of. Boston wanted a second baseman and got Pratt, while New York needed an experienced left hand pitcher and gets Harper, The trade of pitcher Rube Marquard of Brooklyn for Pitcher Walter Rueth- er of Cincinnati, the only other deal involving players consummated during the week, was announced shortly!after the National league at its meetirig let it be known that there was no desire “on the part of the league to further punish Marquard because of his al- leged ticket scalping during the last world series. Discussion of that case and the re- commendatior that the 1921 season open on April 13 _completed the busi- ness of the Natfonal league's annual meeting. The annual meeting of the American league will be held here Friday. Pres- ident Navin of the Detroit club today telegraphed to Ty Cobb to meet him here for the purpose of completing the appointment of Cobb as manager of the Tigers. The formal ofser of the management, it is u(d, #has not yet | been made to Cobb, but will be when he and President Navin meet on Fri day. Friends of Col meetings this week outfielder Zu not particularly anxious to become a manager for a: tyear or two, but since the resignation of Hugh Jen- nings let it be known- that if President Nayin offered him the posmun he would accept it. During the meeting of the American league President Johnson will have a conference witly President Heydler of the National league, relative to play- ing rules and other matters which they must decide upon as members of the advisory - council created under the new major league agreement. The, Baseball Writers’ Ahocmuon of America, at its annual meeting today, elected: president, 'L S. nbom of Chicago; vice president, Frederick G. Lieb of New York; secretary-treasur- er; Joseph McCreedie of Pnlladelphta. at the baseball HARVARD’S FINANCIAL SPORT - ‘REPORT SHOWS LOSS Cambridge, Dec. 15—The report of the, graduate treasurer of athletics of Harvard gniversity for the college year from ' September, 1919, to June, 1920, made public today, shows a \loss of ih 343 in major and minor sports at arvard.

Sentiment was rendered increasingl’ by news of numerous divide ns, further curtailment in steel and iron production and renewed unsettlement in séveral of the more im- portant commodity markets. Adverse conditions in the metal in- dutry were confirmed by announcement of .a wholesale reduction, beginning Jan- 1 next, of wages of copper miners. e money market and foreign ex- change were distinetly stable, despite mis- givings concerhing the former. Enormous federal income tax pavments catsed no digturbance, belng offset in lerge meas- ure by the heavy disburssments of the ireasury department for interest on lib- »rty ‘bonds and ‘maturing certificates of indeuedn uunuthns for call money were easier than at almbst any time in the past fort- night, the rate for demand loans falline o 8 per cent. in the afternoon. although most of the day's accommodations were made at 7 per cent.

Sharp Setback in Wheat Prices Chicago, Dec. 15.—Sharp ‘setbacks in the price of wheat resulted today from the government report shosing grain Crops were larger than expected. The close was unsettled, 5 to 6 1-2 cents net lower with December 1.65 1-2 and March 1.58 1-4 a 1.58 3-4; corn lost 2 7-8 @ 3 3-8 oats 2 a 2 5-8¢c and provisions 20 a 35c. Licreased production overshadowed every other factor in the wheat market. Word that one million bushels had been takn for xport by way of the Gulf of Mexico failed to assist the bulls. On the contrary, it was said rural offerings’ in the southwest had become more liberal. Many in the trade not only looked on the 'grain figures as bearish and wheat es- pecially so, but further considered the big crop of potatoes important as fur- nishing a bread substitute. Even ths most radical bulls had to concede that,any wheat shortage this season would be a month laté: than had seemed probable vesterday. May delivery, in which trad- ing started today proved relatively weak- er, ber or March. finishing at 7¢ to 7 1-4c under the initial price, $1.60.

The come- back that Fillmore displayed was won- derful and much credit is due him. Bosworth was plucky but it was just a case of the best man winning.
