. New York, Jan. 11.—(By the A. P.)— Anrinvitation to the university and eollege crews of the world to compete in the in- |tercollegiate ‘championship regatta te be |rowed at. Poughkeepsie on June 22 was ‘the outstanding feature of the annual imufin‘ of the board of stewards of the intercollegiate rowing association held \here today. » - 3 | ‘While the blanket invitation, as adopted in the forfn of a resolution, does not men- tion any foreign institution by name, it is ;understood to inciude the English uni- 'versities of Oxford and Cambridge; the Univesity of Toronto and such colleges lot -continental Europe, including Scandi- |navia. and Australasia as may maintain |a schoiastic standard similar ts the found- er members of the association—Colum- ta, Cornell and Pennsylyania. | In addition te this general - invitation. |specific invitation will be jssued to other | American colleges which inthe past have entered crews for the Hudson titular re- gatta including. Syracuse, Wisconsin, Navy, Leland Stanford, California, Wash- ington and Massachusetts Institute of Technology. The bread invitation to the | eollege crews of the world would also in- |clude Princetor, Yale and Harvard. but {the latter two universities appear to be [ automatically eliminated because of the |faet that the Harvard-Yale ‘regatta Is | scheduled for New London on Friday. Jume 24. 3 That the beard of stewards and the \city of Popghkeepsie are prepafing for an intereollegiate regatia of far greater iscope than heretofore attempted’ is mode |certain by the announcement that the Poughkeepsie chamber of commerce has ‘appropriated a considerable sum to help ifinance the regatta. This is the first time lin the long history of college rowing on the Hudson that the association has re- ceived an offer of cutside assistance. It was stated ‘that there would be no diffi- culty in sending away as many as fifteen eight oared crews in the ‘vaTsity race if that many entries could be secured. The largest entry to date in the Poughkzepsie reratta was 11 1907, when seven crews rowed over the four miles course. The board of stewards also decidad to adhere to thelr origimal determination to make fthe 'yarsity race over a three mile instead of a four mile ¢ourse, .ip. accord- ance with the resolutfon adopted several vears ago but never tried out-owing to the entry of the Tnited States into the world war. It was sta'§t in this connec- tion_that_ while the determination to hold down the feature race to thrée miles es- tablished no precedent for 1922, it was felt that the various universities invited and to be Invited had understood that the main race would be at three miles and for that reason it was cunsidered unwise to attempt a change for the coming re- gatta at least. While many American colleze crews have from titae to time competed in Eng- land. an English 'varsity eight has never crossed the Atlantic for a regatta in this country. With the tentative understand- ing existing between Cornell and Cam- bridge for a vislt of a Cantab feam or crew to Ithaca this ng. It is hoped that the visiting eight, if it comes, cam iz St 5 ORGANIZED BASEBALL N/ UNDER LANDIS' 'CONTRO! Chicago,” Jan. “11.—Organized in' the United States teday virtually was brought under e ' control, of . Federal Judge Kenesaw M. Landis for at least seyen years when the drafting committee of the National Association of Minor Leagues officially voted approval of the new national agreement, ‘already accepted by the two major league committees, which creates the office of a baseball com- missioner with supreme powers and with Judge Landis as the first incumbent. __All that remains; to put the’ agreement into effect is the official approval of -the various léague reépresentatives as a whole, which probably will ‘be given tomorrow. Bageball men tonight said. the presenta- tion of the agreement to the club owners tomorrow would be ‘a_‘“mere formality” and that the action of the drafting com- mittee “virtually - constituted formal ae- ceptance by all the parties concerned. The minor leaguers had been doubtfal as to whether a man agreeable to.them would be chosen when Judge Landis' term expires, but this matter was quickly set R-g:tta be persuaded to remain for the big in- tercollegiate regatta. Oxford also will receive an invitation_and in view of the remarkably close race between the U. S. Nava) Academy eight and the Leander Boat Club! -crew, ecomposed = of Oxford and Cambridge oarsmen, at Brussels in the ‘Olympic regatta last summer, it I8 hoped that both will accep!. With the date for the regatts fixed for June 22, it is evident from a study of the tide tables that all three races will be rowed-late in the afternoon. As June 2 is the longest day of the year, wind and tide conditfoms, which might cause a post- ponement of an hour or so will have little effect. 30 far as a .daylight.finish is con- cerned. ATl these matters were considered be- fore the final decisions were announced by the board of stewards: consisting of (Charles H. Mapes, Columbia; Charles E. Tremain, Cornell and John A. Brown. Pennsylvsnta. that the minors sign the agreement for only seven years—the ‘term of Judge Landis’ contract. At the end of that time, if a new commissioner is chosen, either a man who meets with the approval of the minors must be chosen or they may wit] draw from the agreement. The advisery board provided in the agreement to settle baseball disputes will centain two minor league representai. s under the new agreement, the other Lwo members to be the presidents of the \a- tional and the American leagues. When this board is unable to settle any dispute, the case will go before Judge Landis as baseball commissioner and his decigion will be final:! The minor.league repre- sentatives will be selected tomorrow. The minor league representatives at their meeting today voted to restore the draft, but made reservations which does not make it compulsory. The draft season was made from Oct. 15 to Oct. 20 and the draft prices were set as follows: Class AA $5,000, Class A $4,000. Class B $2,500, Class C $1,500, Class D $1.000. The minor leaguers also established a new scale of player and salary limits as follows: s Class AA—No salary limit: 35 players yntil 30 days after season onens an- than 25. This gave the Class AA leagues vire tually the same rules as are in oot 1o the major leagues. Class A—Salary limit of $4,250 ; player limit of 30 for first 30 days and 20 there- after. Class B—Salary player limit of 20 thereafte: Class (—Salary player limit of 18 thereafter. Class D—Salary player limit of 18 thereafter. The club owners decided to classify leaguesA on the basis of the last federal census instead of the school census. BOXING CONVENTION MAY BE EXTENDED UNTIL THURSDAY New York, Jan. 11.—The" title of na- tional Boxing Association of the Unit- ed States was adopted unanimously to- day at the convention of delegates from sixteen stats to organize a governing body over professional boxing in this country. Its object was announced as the regulation an dsupervision of the sport in the interest of public welfare. The association Wwill hold its annual meeting, beginning on the third Monday of January, at a place to be designated by a majority of the members. The arrival today of Secretary E. A. McAuley of the Michigan Athletic Board of Control made exactly one-tgird of the states of the Union represented. The temporary committees met this morning and submitted comprehensive reports. Most of the time was taken up with the discussion and tentative adop- tion ‘of the constitution and by-laws, which may be ratified' tomorrow. Plans to have every state represented i on the board of directors are inciuded in a recommendation formally agreed upon. It is probable that the convention will be extended until Thursday. | INELIGIBLE FOR ATHLETICS 3 AT PRINCETON Princeton, 'N.

Special shares in which an extensive short interest is believed to exist dis- plaved the greatest activity and scored largest gains. ‘helfac(ogrs ot again centributed to the. advance included the increase strenzth of foreign exchange, and the easier trend of money. The latter development ex- tended to time funds, which were in more liberal supply than at any pericd in the past six months s Other advices pegtaining to market values were of the customary confiicting character, ranging from resumption of activity at ofrtain industrial centers to further price-cutting and wage redue- tions elsewhere. Associated with the further rise of in- ternational remittances were rumors of impending loans or credit extensions to France and Switzeriand, but in well post- »d quarters these were regarded as some- what premature. Steels, 3hippings. equipments and spe- cialties, the latter mainly of the food variety, comprised the strongest issues. erucible again ivading the list at a net gain of 9 1-2 points. or a fraction more than vesterday's advance, otherwise gains of 2 to 5 prints were impaired by realiz- ing sales and the backwardness of tafls which at no time kept pace with the gen- eral market and closed for the most part at mod-rats recessions.

The export business was done, too, in the face of assertions that Argentine wheat was quoted ten cents a bushel cheaper than current figures . in the TUnited States Much netice was also taken of signs of improvement in the flour trade.
