Ratio reserves of the federal reserve branch banks showed further substantial zains and advices from London intimated that the menace of a general industrial upheaval throughout the British Isles had been definitely averted. The local money market was distinct- ly tighter, however, call loans opening at 7 per cent. and holding at that rate throughout the session. This was af tributed to the deficit in clearing hou reserves, as disclosed in last Saturday bank- statement. There were fewer offer- ings of time money and little inquiry for merchants’ paper. Rails were under moderate pressure, some, of the high class or investment is- sues easing 1 to 2 points. Conditions in that group wefe not improved by the fur- ther fractional decline of Pennsylvania “{to the new low record of 32 3-8.

Practice at the' Academy was put behind a day yesterday on account of bad weather and the squad of candi- LES win only smiled and said they were not'good enough fo earry bats for Rad- ‘bourne. From this you will get an Idea of Radbournes greatness. Bily Sun- day, the evangelist is another who loud- ly sings the praiSes of the old timers. Billy was considered the speediest run- ner among the ball players of 30 years ago. And Julian Curtis riees to ask “what players can handle an infield balls better than George Wright could in the seventies.” We don't know, we never saw Wright in “action. The First Glove But you want to remember this: ‘Wright grabbed them with his bare hands, while the shortstops of the pre- sent day have specially prepared gloves which aid them in their work. It is this improvement in playing material that we started to write about before we began to drift. So we go back a- gain to Irwin. In 1832 a small palm glove made its appearance, a kid glove with the fingers cut off. Three years later Arthur Irwin worked out a fiel ers glove very much like the ones in use today and brought it to the Spauld- ing people. That was the beginning of the glove industry of today. Forty years ago the catcher. used only a rubber mouthpeice to protect his teeth. Julian - Curtis, for many years treasurer of the American Olym- pic Committee, was a catcher in those days in a little town in Connecticut and afterwards at Yale, and no one knows or has followed the improve- ments in baseball more closely than Curtis, In a recent talk .with him I got a lot of imformation about -our National sport. The First Mask Frem his I ascertained that Jim Tyng, of Harvard, was the first play- er to use a mask. This was in 1878. THis mask was invenied by Thayer, then captain of the Harvard team. Tyng refused to go. behind the bat unless he hdd protection for his.face, and Thayer not wanting to lose Tyng worked out the mask. Onee again it is proven that necessity is theé mother of invention. Alorig- about the same time the chest prgfector was brought -out. Improvements are being made.all_the time. Gloves are better now than they were a few years ago, and so it goes. One can note the wonderful progress made in baseball by looking over the baseball goods which will be ‘exhib- ited in practically -every sporting goods windows in the United States during- “baseball week” April 1 to 10. And when wou see what the present day players have in the way of equip- ment you will feel moreé kindly towards the fellows of decades ago who base- ball without a thing in the way of pro- tection. TURF NOTES ‘Walter E. Hadley, of Somerville, Mass., former owner of Earlwood L. dateg will be out strong today in prep- aration for Saturday’s game with the Calonials on the Campus. THE IMPROVEMENT IN BASEBALL BY PETE CARNEY Baseball is a wonderful game, pos- sibly the .greatest of all sports, but baseball as it is.played today is con- siderably different from the game as played 30 or 40 years ago, not so much however, in the way it was played on the field as in the implements used. Back in what some people long to ed term “‘the good old days”, the catch- ers didn't wear masks, chest protect- ors nor have mits to stop the fast ones, nor did the infielders nor out- fielders wear gloves, but don't’ think for a minute they didn't have some p{ the real ball players in those da:’;. They did.” We rave about Cobb, Spea- ker, Ruth, Sisler and other stars of today, but those who remember the players of years ago wax just as in- thusiastic about Radbourne, Kelly and others. Recently we attended a dinner in New Haven, Conn., given -in honor of “Ty” Cobb and “Chief” Bender. One of the guests was Arthur Irwin I don’t know how old Irwin is but I think he played on the first baseball team organized in the United States. If, he didn’t play on the first it was the second team. Irwin has seen them all play; he has spent all his life in baseball (this year he will manage the Hartford club in the Eastern lea- gue), and he is strong for. the old time players and he wants to tell the world that Charley Radbourne was not only the greatest pitcher that ever lived but also the greatest ball player. Grantland Rice, Hugh Fullerton, and one or two more of us who did not ex- ist when Radbourne was heaving the ball and batting 400, mentioned the names of some present day stars that we thought were pretty good, but Ir- New Minister From Haiti Albert Blanchet, Ty Secretary and Charge d'Affaires D‘ who has bee the Haitian Legation in Washing ten, has been appointed Ministe to the United States -succeedin Charles Moravia, who recently re- Hgned. } MASONS STILL Building operations In_the city have been almost ‘at a standstill during the past week owing to labor difficulties with the building trades. The main dif- ficulty is with the ‘masons who refuse to work even under protest although the carpenters are still working under pro- test. The masens who have been getting $1.12 1-2 an heur were eoffered a mini- mum rate ef 90c an hour but they re- fused to accept the reductien anq walked out leaving the builders with no one to dapend upon for the masonry work. The carpenters were reduced to a minimum scale of 75¢ an hour and they continued work until such time as a settiement by arbitration can be_reached.” Local con- tractors say that th eattitude of the ma- sons is absurd as not only are they losing money by the strike but are hurting the building business so. that unless an agreement is soon reached there will be no work to do when they finally go to work. . Local people who have plans of building in mind are holding off until wages come down and the price of Iabor 18 lower. ¥ Work on local profects made as good progress as could be. expected under the existing conditions during the past week. Several projects that had passed the foundation stage were pushed along but the foundation werk on new buildings was suspendeq untfl the masens return to work. The store at Ne. ¢ Frankiin street that is to be occupied by O'Neil and Mec- Grory is being remodeled. The front of the store has been torn eut and new floers are to be laid. In the rear of the store will be a fixture room for the dis- play of electric fixtures. The front of the building is to be done in plate glass and copper.” Contractor P. F. Sweeney has the centract.

Some very interesting figures on the distribution of automibles in the United States have been published by the American Automobile Association. It will surprise many to learn that in passenger cars California passes Penn. sylvania, and Hlinois is only 3200 under Ohio and 24,000 under New York, ir spite of the long distance by whick even the least of these four States out- strips her in population. Of the five lllinois is at the bottom with 504,240 New York first, with 559,521, Jowa comes sixth, with 407,030, and Texas seventh, with 397,693, Michigan bas 366,000, and Indiana is slightly over 300,000, Four more States, Massachusetts Missouri, Kaneas and Wisconsin, pass the quarter-million mark. Exactly half the forty-eight States have less than 160,000, Nevada standing at the foot with 9963. In commercial cars, New York’s 124,398 is 42,000 ahead of Ohio, which comes next, and only a trifle lees than double the figure of Illinois. Cali- fornia, third in passenger cars, stands only seventh in the commercial list. The proportion of commercial to pas- senger cars is greatest in Massachu- setts, a little more than one to five, and least in North Dakota, where it is only one to sixty. New York collects $8.- $17,709 from 683,919 passenger and commercial cars; Pennsylvania, $8.- 090,873 from 570,164; Ohio, $6,400,000 from 620,600, and Iowa, $7,487,830 from only 437,030. Illinois, Michigan and California pass the $5,000,000 mark. The total of collections for the coun- try is given as $99,141,097 on 9,180, 316 cars. These figures are, of course, for the year 1920. The number of auto- mobiles it will be seen, s about one for every eleven persons; or if we count only passenger cars, about one for every fourteen.
