something better than amusing

Mayor Buckingham President of League Presented With Masonic Emblem by
 Baseball Enthusiasts

Park Place, to Lafayette street, to State street, to Broad street, to Sea- side Park. The string of quarter of hundred machines with their glar- ing head and searchlights made a pretty picture as they wound about the zigzag drives of the park Dust ing along the boulevard the chain of cars made Main street, up which the machines were driven to John street, where at Bob Kinders Lenox Thea Ire the parade was dismissed.
 At the Lenox, the festivities were continued. To start the fun, City Clerk Stephen F. Boucher, vice presi- dent of the league, called Mayor Buckingham. president of the league, to the stage. Mayor Buckingham was taken by surprise when Vice President Boucher presented him on behalf of the league with a heavy gold watch fob, a Masonic emblem. The Mayor admitted that he generally gave him. self credit for knowing what was go- ing on, but that this time he would have to admit that the boys slipped a strike over on him. The Mayor let the boys in on al secret-it was his birthday-he would not state just how young he was, but that he felt like eighteen, as if he were one of the boys.

YALE AND QUAKER
 CREWS RACE TODAY
Flights Will Go Two Miles
 on Connecticut River
Especial from United Press.)


 Springfield, Mass, May 13-The var sity eights of Yale and Pennsylvania will row a two mile race on the Con- necticut River here some time between 5 and 7 o'clock, the time of the start depending on the weather. The race will be rowed down stream and the time will be fast as there is swift cur rent running. Q
 Both crews are in fine shape and in the opinion of experts are so even ly matched that the outcome depends upon weather conditions. Given a calm. smooth course, they say, and Pennsylvania will win. With weather their choice is Yale. Pennsylvania goes into the race with a lighter crew by an average of seven pounds, but has the advantage of having seven veterans to offset the handicap in weight Yale has more beef in her crew, but the men are more or less inexperienced. Pennsylvania has al- ready had one race this year. that against Annapolis, in which it was de- feated by a scant margin.
 Pennsylvania has been out on the course for three successive days, and has impressed many people by the clean work which has been shown on the river. Yale was here earlier in the season and at that time gave great promise of development, and the intervening time has been put into perfecting the crew, and this improve ment was shown in Yales work on the Connecticut yesterday afternoon The crews, together with their age and weight. follow.

 The officers took their respective places and the manner in which they performed their official duties would show that they have applied them selves assiduously to the work dur ing the past three weeks. AS might be expected, there was a very large attendance.
 w. S. Boate, who preceded N. Waldo Kennedy as organizer, resigned as treasurer and James H. Kershaw ex- polfce commissioner, was elected to fill the vacancy. It was voted to pro- cure robes for the officers and uni- forms for the degree team of sixteen members.

MILLER ASKS DAMAGES
 FOR INJURED PROPERTY

A. W. Miller, appearing for his father, John I. Miller, 11s7 Broad street, appeared before the committee On claims, Common Council, last ev- ening, asking for damages of 1000 alleging the Broad street property was damaged through the establish ment of a grade at the north end of the street made at the time of the laying of the permanent pavement. The change of grade formed a pocket in front of the house permitting the rain water to run in and flood the base ment. If the land in front of the house was built up to prevent the running in of the rain, the basement would be converted into a cellar. new porch would have to be built to offset the grade MT. Taylor was re- minded that as the damages to the house grew out of the change of grade the matter was really in the hands of the board of appraisal
 Many other minor claims for dam ages were presented to the board. among them one for s13.7O by Samuel Katz, whose delivery wagon was damaged by being run into by fire truck No. 2. About ten claims were made for the abatement of taxes.

he was city clerk. Every year since has found him at the head working for the best interests of every team. Last season and this year the Mayor made a brave attempt to relinquish his position, but the boys would not stand for anything that looked like a withdrawal.
 The program at the theatre was concluded by throwing two reels of moving pictures on the screen, clog dancing by Master Fucello and by Walter Schorndorf, and solos by Ed ward Cole and Jack Feeley.
 The members Of the league wish to thank all those public spirited citizens who made the parade possible by do- hating their automobiles, and also to the American Graphophone Drum Corps. The members of the corps, appearing for the first time in their natty uniforms of green, made a marked impression all along the line of route. The drummerS and fifers kept up an almost constant play, her aiding the approach of the machines. When the drummers were not hand ling the sticks, the corps bugler tore off few bars on his air splitter.
 Those who donated the use of their machines were Mayor El T. Bucking- ham, the Blue Ribbon Garage, Charity Commissioner F. w. Behrens. Jr., two cars; Gen. Henry A. Bishop, Will liam E.. Burnham, George Burns, M. H. Ford, Railroad Commissioner T. B. Ford, John Scanlon, B. D. Pierce, Jr., Locomobile Co.,, three cars; Alderman Henry J.

 The league started off on it's fifth successful season this afternoon with the following games: Crane No. vs. Warner Bros, at Crane Field; Crane No vs Birdsey-S -Somers, at St. Jo- seph's Oval; and Locomobile Co. vs. Whiting Mfg. Co at Seaside Park.

HOW CHASE SAVED SMITH FROM MINORS
Offered to Buy Red Sox
 Pitcher for $2,5OO

There is a story af1oat in baseball circles as to how Hal Chase saved Frank smith. the veteran pitcher of the Boston Red Sox, from taking a dip in the minors. A week or so ago President John I. Taylor got into communication with Manager Hal Chase and offered him Smith for 3D. 800 If he didn't take him, Taylor averred he would send him to the bush league.
 Taylor had hardly made his crack when the boy manager, after a con- ference with President Farrell, de- eided to make the investment. Tay- Tor was notified Chase wanted the piano mover He thought he could play a little more ball. tSend him on to Detroit" wired Hal.
 But Taylor got cold feet, for after reading the telegram he spoke to Chase over the long distance phone, begging to be relieved of his obliga- tons.
 II guess Smith can go little yet he said. land I wish you would call the deal off. I'll give him another chance
 Of course Chase agreed with Taylor that Smith was good enough for an- other year or so, and told the wfry president of the Sox that he would call everything off.
 But don't forget" he said, when you don't want him any more, let me have him.
 Smith pitched his best ball for the Chicago White Sox when he was call cd the '1ron man. of the American league
