THIRD AVENUE ROAD PLAN
Public. Service Commission Hears
Last of Argument.

Argument took place yesterday before
she Public Service Commission on the re-
organization plan Of the bondholders OF the
r7-,,irs Avenue Railroad system. All the
commissioners were present with the eN-
ceat5on OF John E. Eustis,s who was at
ATiddletoun. Conn. where he received the
darree of LII ID. from Wesleyan Uni
nersity.
lanes ApplehN, whose family held be-
s,.ner, sea0 and 5000 shares of the STOCK
which was practically wiped out when 'ne
road vas sold at auction, argued that 'he
,,lan was unfair 30 the shareholders anu
advised that the road be left under the
control OF the receiver. F. w. Nhitrioge,
for a couple or wears longer, until II is
entirely rehabilitated-
Colonel William N Amory- also argued
against the proposed plan, and maintained
that the first step TO reorganize would be
10 force the restitution of the S6.e0eo
which, he said, had been looted from the
road. Some OF the looters should be put
sn iail. he said, and some Of the lawyers
who aided them should be disbarred.
William D. Guthrie counsel for the bond
holders, delivered long argument IN favor
of the proposed plan, which, he SAID was
The best that could be devised, il the IN
testors were TO recover any OF the amounts
they had put into the company's securities.
He maintained that the testimony mao
demonstrated that SCI .oo0,Uoo Of securitles
had been sold at prices ranging from - 10
par. and that all the money had been ouis
spent on the road. While the committee
on reorganization did not pretend that hHed

ing the dismissal of all the charges. Nj
Dexter says:
II is apparent that the failure was an
honest one, and caused by the investment
OF capital too largely in inactive securities

NO REST FOR GRE WS
OARSWEN SEEK WORK
n. !. L. Fiue Wants n Game
uitk Columbia Team.

Contrary to The custom of former years
crew practice at Columbia will be continued
through the midyear examination period
which began yesterday. Forty freshmen
and about the same number of varsity can
didates suggested to James Rice. the coach
that they thought it would be foolish to
cut out the practice now that it has been
under way for month, and he agreed to
keep them at work three days a week
until February l, when they will work
every day.
Although Columbia has negotiations for
dual races pending, only one with the Navy
crew has been regularly scheduled 1t is
pretty well understood, however, that race
year. and ;n all probability it will be held
on the Charles River basin. at Boston.
Columbia and Harvard had a dual affair in
the spring of 1907. when the New York
varsity eight won an unexpected victory.
There was no race in 1908, but last sea son
the two met again, and that time Harvard
had little trouble in defeating the de-
moralized Columbia eight
Columbia will hold spring regatta on
the Hudson some time in May. toward the
cost of which a fund of 1000 has been
given by the Hudson-Fulton celebration
committee and others interested in ath-
letics at Mornngside Heights. This regatta
will include interclas5 races and interfra-
ternity contests. 1t has been suggested that
arrangements be made for a big race for
the Columbia varsity, and among the crews
that rave been mentioned is the Yale
varsity eight. The idea would be TO have
observation steamers follow the crews. and
it is believed that IL would result in arous-
ing much interest IN rowing both at Yale
and at the local institution No definite
ar angements have been made, however
With the defeat of Yale on Wednesday
night the basketball enthusiasts at New
York University have again begun an agi-
tation for the scheduling of a game with
Columbia. The New Yorker the New
York University student paper. in an edi-
torial last Monday called on the manage
ment of the basketball team to arrange for
p game with the Morningside Heights five.
suggesting that IL one game was not sat
tsfactory A series of three be arranged,
one at University Heights. one at Columbia
and the third If necessary, on a neutral
court.
At Columbia no response has been made
to this suggestion. In view OF the fact that
the Columbia, team closes it's season in A.
few weeks it is not likely that game will
be arranged by the management. There
was much discussion last year over a
somewhat similar request from New York
University but the Columbia authorities
found that it was practically impossible
TO have the schedule lengtheued to include
either a game with New York University
or with the University of Chicago. which
desired to arrange series to decide the
national championship.
Both Columbia and the New York Uni
versty teams ara unbeaten in intercolegi-
ate contests this season. Columbia was
defeated however. by a strong alumni team
by a score of % to q, about three weeks
ego. New York University, on the other
hand. has not suffered a reverse in two
playing seasons.
