ST. VINCENT PLANS
BASKETBALL TEAM
Grand Avenue Boys Expect to Turn
Out Five That Will Exceed the
Record of the 1906
Team

A great deal of the attention of the
st. Vincent college students is conferred
on basketball, a branch of athletics in
which the Grand avenue institution al
ways has been exceedingly strong. The
Saints developed a five during the sea-
son of 1906 that annexed third position
in the Southern California Basketball
league, and when this branch of sports
was introduced into other Southern
California colleges in 1907 the Saints
tied with Whittier college for first hon
ors, easily defeating Occidental, u. ).
c. and Pomona, and breaking even
with the Quaker institution.
Last year, ON account of the condi-
lions of Southern California intercol-
legiate athletic relations, no varsity
team was placed in the field although
the preparatory five made fine repu-
tation among the different high schools
of Southern California. Already Physi-
cal Director Moores, who has charge
of the basketball situation at the Cath
Ollie school, has rounded the varsity
candidates into splendid shape, and as
he has plenty of good material on hand,
he is confident that his men will hold
their own against all contenders.
Four students now are in college VINO
have played on varsity teams In the
past, although two of them-Cunnlng-
football practice; but as the football
season ends Thanksgiving day for the
Saints, these boys soon will he free to
devote their time to basketball. Gun
ningham played forward during the
season of 1907, and next to Capt. Louis
Lamer of the same team was consed-
cred OF be one of the best forwards IN
the south, while Holleran held down
guard position on the same five: Ihe
other old men are Reynolds and Ofs-
hoven, both of whom played guards in
several of the intercollegiate games two
years ago, although at that time they
were not regulars on the team. since
then however. both have greatly I'M
proved in their playing, and doubtless
will make the guard positions, as Hoi-
leran will be shifted to center, with
O'Neil of the 1907 prer team as an
understudy. -,
To fill the vacant position at forward
plenty of material is on hand from
which to pick. Dietrichs and Hickson,
forwards Of last years prep team, ana
Daze and Kerfoot of last years fresn-
man five are the most likely candt.,
dates. Coach Moores is highly pleased
with the showing made by the students
in practice and predicts a winning baS-
ketbaU team at the Grand aveneu col
lege this season.

BELIEVES EICHoLz ASKS
TOO MUCH FOR PROPERTY
Council Probably Will Deny His Claim
for 1000 for the Land Con-
demned to Open Grand
Avenue

The council heard the final testimony
and arguments on the opening of Grand
avenue yesterday morning, and con-
tinued the case until Monday, Wher
they will render a decision.
Nearly all the members of the coun-
Gil were ready to vote yesterday when
the arguments were concluded, and had
the vote been taken then it is probable
the protest would have been denied.
1t probably will be denied Monday
but several members of the council de-
sire to look over the matter during the
next few days.
If the council decides in favor OF
Phillip Eicholz, the protestants prac-
tically have declared they will take the
matter to the court and have the pro-
ceedings abandoned OH the ground the
notices were not posted properly.
The contention has been Eicholz was
paid too much for his property con-
demned by the board of referees. He
will receive about 1000, and evidence
was introduced to show he had paid
only $4,000 for 1t at the time he pur-
chased it, which was subsequent to the
commencement of proceedings to open
the street.

natural spot cotton market. Cotton
usually takes the cheapest route to The
mills, and this route does not include
a stop-oyer at New York, AS a result
, transactions in spot cotton in New
York are quite small and thus there i,
mot in New York such a market IN ac.
tual cotton as will furnish reliable
quotations to be used in fixing con.
tract differences.
This, however, does not prevent the
application of the commercial differ
ence principle in substance to future
contracts in New York. The CONNER
cial differences existing in the leading
southern spot markets can be used as
basis for contract differences. 1t
would not be strictly necessary to re.
wise the contract differences as often
as changes in such commercial differ.
ences occur. If the contract differences
were revised weekly or even monthly
the substantial advantages of the com.
melcial difference system could be SO
cured.
1t is contended by many that such
~oturn 10 the commercial difference
system would, because Of the dsad
yantages of New York's location, de
stroy the business of the New York
Cotton Exchange. There is little rea-
son to believe that any such result
would occur. However this may be.
the New York Cotton Exchange. If it
can not exist under a just and euuit
able system has no excuse for exist.
ance at ALL The present New York
system of fiXed differences is I'M
economic in defiance of natural law
unfair, and, like all other attempts to
Lefty natural law, results in such com.
lex and devious effects that the bene
it of its transactions accrues only to a
killed few.
