CUBA VIRGIN FIELD
 FOR COLLEGE SPORTS
Neighbor Island Attracts Attention of University
 Athletes

NEW YORK, Jan. 2G.-The island Of Cuba is looming up as new field for internationally inter CollegiGtl ath- letic contests. For the pasT two yeIrs the football teams Of Southern uni versailles have crossed to Havana for football games on Christmas Day These matches have always proved satisfactory from tie point of gate re- ceipts. and the Cuban studtllts are becoming ambitious for similar meets but on a larger scale.
 In accordance with these ideas the University of Havana is endeayorins to enter into all agreement with the University of Virginia for an inter varsity athletic carnival 10 be held at Havana during Christmas week of 1912. The tentative program out lined by the island university aUthori- ties calls for two football games be- tween the eleven of the colleges, with a dual track and field meet tO be held i'll the interim.
 The emlssaTy who is trying to ar range for the carnival is Umpire Rig Ter of the National League. Rigler acted as arbiter in the baseball games played between the Cuban team and the Giants on the recent trip of the local team to Cuba lt became known during his stay that he was taking the law course 2t the University of Virginia. As a result he was asked to use his influence 10 bring about ath- letic relations between the two insti- tutions.
 Mir. Rigler entered into the matter heartily and offered to do his best toward arranging tho football games and track meet desired by the Havana University athletic authSriiies. II is understood that the University of Vir- einia will be guaranteed ali :he eX- penses necessary for such a trip and assured oi a hearty welcome and oig crowds in attendance.
 The questiCt Of accepting the inyi- tation will be considered by President Alderman as well as the athletic con- mittee of Virginia. and it is thought likely that a favorable answer will be the outcome. The athletes as well as Trainer Lannigan are enthusiastic over the project, and pressure will be brought to bear upon the athletic as sociation to consent to the trip. IL is understood that should Virginia de- cline, however, the same proposition will be made to other universities until a desirable opponent has been secured to meet the Cuban collegians on their own grounds.

STOCK MARKET
OPENS LOWER
THREATENED STRIKE OF ENGlN-
FERs REFLECTED IN IRREGU-
LAR TRADING.

New York, April o. (WalY Street,)-
The threatened strike Of the eastern 10
connective engineers was reflected in the
irregular tendency of today's stock
market at the opening. Most OF the &C
tive issues opened with declines, those
being Offset, however, by material ad-
vance in the specialties. One point
gains were made<in Pittsburgh Coal
preferred, Sears Roebuck and Inter
borough preferred. United States Steel,
Union Pacific and the leading copper
stocks sold fractionally under Satur-
days level. Dealings were moderate.
The entire list weakened, under pres
sure following the first hour over half
a score of standard issues declining
from one to one and a half points, IN
Guiding Reading, Lehigh Valley, Union
Pacific, U. S. Steel and Amalgamated
Copper. Early gains in the speclaltles
were off, while International Mercantile
Marine bonds and preferred shares teli
to lower prices. (
The market closed irregular. Coal
shares made further improvement in
last hour and other active issues hard
ened In sympathy but the movement as
wbele was little less restricted and
dull than before. Several of the former
subsidiaries Of the American Tobacco
Co. declined abruptly on the adoption
by the u. S. senate of a resolution call
ed for a review of the recent decision
affecting that corporation by the U. s.
circuit court. In the final dealings, the
entire list rose to level where little
more than fractional losses remained.
while Reading, Lehigh Valley and
few other issues were a point or more
above Saturdays close.
