LAUREL HILLS IS, DELPHIS 13. Home Basketball Five a Bit Too Fast
 for New London Team.

Before a gCoc sized crowd at the r. NJ. c. A. gymnasium on Saturday eve ming, the Laurel Hills opened their basketball season by beating out the Delphis of New London Is to IS, in a close and exciting game that moved at top sfeed all through both halves. At the end of the first half, the teams were tied, 6 to 6, but in the second a spectacular field goal shot from the center of the floor by Captain Coyl for the Laurel Hills gave his team a two-Point lead which they held to the finish.
 In the first half the scoring for the Laurel Hills was evenly divided be- tween Captain Coyl, ReveIl and Stan ley, each getting field goal, while Lawrence for the Delphis was the man to make points. shooting two field goals and a foul goal. with another foul goal added by vickery.
 Two field goals by Coyl one each by Forsberg and Revell and a foul goal by Laurel Hills made up the score of the Laurel Hills in tho second half. The Delphis added ' points on two field goals by Vickery. ono by Lawrence and foul goal by Leary. guarding of the Laurel H1lls kept the Delphis sewed up tight and enly Law renee and Vickery were able to get loose for effective shots at the bas- registered in the scoring on shots from the field.

FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL.
FAIR VOLUME OF TRADING. Movement on Saturday irregular, With
 Downward Tendency.

New York, Nov. 19.-Transactions in the two hours of trading yester- day were fair in volume on a move ment of prices that showed great ir- regularity, with the final tendency in the direction of lower quotations. Net losses were reported in the larger number of issues, but outside of Amer jean Smelling, St. Paul, Reading and the Wabash issues declines in the act i've list were confined to small frac- tions, weakness in the Wabash shares apparently being based on the agree ment reached by the St. Louis and San Francisco railroad with the Louisville and Nashville railroad for a route from Memphis to New Orleans, which the Frisco company failed to obtain by way of the Gould roads.
 The Gould stocks are not popular, and every opportunity is taken by the change to hammer their prices. So- called Gould properties have great pos abilities, but in some quarters it is thought these possibilities will be worked out under other people than the Goulds, and that eventually the securities of the various companies will move to higher levels under the influence of a management that will be ready to take advantage of opportul.i- ties for building up the different lines along modern methods. In the early dealings Union Pacific and Amalga- mated Copper made new high prices for the current movement, but they failed to retain the improvement, the only consistently strenS feature in the day being supplied by American Car and Foundry which was among the few issues that showed substantial ad- vances at the close.
 Orders for railroad equipment are increasing, and the equipment shares are apt to be among the leaders in the event of sustained bull operations in the general market. Selling through out the list in the last hour was whol- iy in line with expectation based on the over bought condition of the mar ket and the unwillfn gness of many traders to maintain a position on the long side over the day. Realizing sales were heavy, especially in Reading, United States Steel Union Pacific. Le- high Valley American SmeIting and Amalgamated Copper

but he got every one off, although on
 many he had only time enough to give the ball a quick toe thrust instead of a good healthy leg swing. Some of the punts went no longer than 15 to 20 ! yards. Over in front of the Princeton

 way Captain Howe fumbled the kick, and that same Hawkeyed Samr~ White plunged into the pool, emerging on the other side in a cloud of spray with the ball safe in his arms.

 advance the ball against Yale, and af-
 ter grasping their one chance never
 had a ghost of a show of scoring.
 There was no protection for the
 Yale interference formed in good shar~
 and allowed the Yale backs to bring
 the ball back for many yards
 In spite of the unfavorable condi-
 ticns the game was remarkably clean
 The Tigers deserve particular credit
 for their sure handling of the ball.
 They were guilty of only two fumbleS
 to nine for Yale, which in a measure tells the story of the game. Penalties. too, were few and far between The men played hard and aggressive foot ball. but rarely offended the letter of the rules. The Tigers were penalized only three times for a loss of 25 yards, W hile Yale suffered twice for 10 yards.
 The summary shows how Yale out played Princeton in what under the old game would have led to sure vic tory. The Blue gained 134 yards by straight rushing to only 30 for the Tigers, and 130 yards in running back punts to 70 for Princeton. Camp and Dewitt averaged about 30 yards each in bunting the soggy baIl-an excellent average That puntings was resorted to from end to end is plainly indi- cated by the fact that Yale made 25 to Princeton's 33.
 The forward pass was conspicuous for it's absence, which may be account ed for by the uncertainty in handling tn ball. Yale used two, but neither was successful. while Princeton used none at all. The onside kick also was neglected It may be said in passing that the attack of the Tigers was linn ited to three simple plays. or four at most It was a case of Pendleton through the center, Dewitt any old place on a fake kick formation or Baker between end and tackle. All were stopped by Yale's compact de- fense. Princeton did not make single firm down. Yale showed short stretches of sustained power and made four first downs by rushing, but, as said before, the final punch was lacking:
 Bomeisler, Yale's first. choice end, was the individual star for his team He smothered every run directed at his end, and not man got away from his unerring tackles. Camp kicked well for Yale and also made the best runs of the game behind interference. Captain Howe also showed his quality and speed in several pretty lodging runs.
 White, Dewitt Duff and Captain Hart were the Princeton stars, both ] Hart and Duff doing great work in 1 up the Yale plays.
