DISTANCE HANDICAP-25 TARC
COMMERCE WINS EASILY
Overwhelms Townsend Harris
in Basketball Game.

Arriving at top form with a furious
rush. the basketball team OF the High
School OF Commerce completely outplayed
and easily defeated the quintet OF Town
send Harris Hall at the courts OF the
College of the City OF New York yester-
day afternoon. The score. IS TO 3. while
decisive in itself, does not clearly show
the difference i'm the strength OF the
teams. Commerce outplayed and out
passed the Townsend Harris team, but
the boys took too many chances and
sacrificed team work in the attempt to
crafty personal ambitions. With couple
of men under the baskets, one or two
members of the squad insisted upon try
ing shots from the centre and further
boundaries of the court. So II happened
that many glowing opportunities to score
were allowed to slip by when points might
have been added TO the total had the
team played heady game.
In the early part Of the game the Com
merce boys played with snap and dash
that have been lacking in their previous
games. and carried the battle into the
territory OF the opposing team. Shirley
Cam and Holman worked nicely In com
bination and passed the ball all AROUND
their men. Shirley was fed the ball ana
he had no trouble In caging three baskets
from the floor. Holman dropped two
through the cage, but he sacrificed sew
eral opportunities for his team by try
ing for impossible long shots. Duke
Fenrjch, who won his spurs on the cub
football team, was prominent factor IN
Tho yictory ~ his team. The little FELLOW
completely smothered Rupp. the Harris
torward and never gave him a chance to
accompisb anything. incidentally Fenrich
shot two goals from the field.
Michaelson, who won some local iame
when playing on the basketball team OF
Public School 50, played fine game Tor
the Harris team. He was all over the
court. working hard all the ume' ne
shot two baskets. but Cam was right at
81. shoulder all the time and had some-
what the better Of the battle.
The Iine-up follows.

The Grand Opera Season Of
AID. M1S.
BY DIR. FRANK CRANE.
Copyright. 1918. by Frank Crane.l

The grand opera season of AID. 2O13
In New York was about to begin.
In the twenty municipal opera houses
all was astir. Bursts of harmony from
chorus. orchestra and soloists indicated
a mighty getting ready.
The newspapers contained columns
concerning the new singers. the new
operate works.
I found George Israels, the chief di-
rector of municipal music. at his desk
in the city hall. He was a young He
brew. whose genius for organization and
whose native efficieCy had brought him,
under the natural operation of the civil
service rules, to the head of the musical
department of the greatest center of
population on earth.
DO you know" he said, when we had
chatted a while upon this and that, Il
was just thinking about the difference
between conditions musical now and a
hundred years ago.
Of 1913, October /. 1t was full of an
nouncements of the opening of the opera
I'VE can hardly imagine the feudal
conditions of those times People talked
a deal of democracy: but they only
knew it as some political sort Of thing
and did not dream of applying 1T to
morals. art, labor and all life. as we do
now. Since the revolution of 1850 all
that has changed.
"They had then one grand opera house.
1T was only for the rich. The privileged
classes actually made a vaudeville show
of certain popular singers. People went
to the opera not for music's sake, but
because it was the thing They went
to say they had heard Caruso or Farrar
or Tetrazzini. They went and sat
around in what was called golden
horseshoe. to display their finery, ito see
and be seen. while famous foreigners
sang.
How different it all is now! We have
advanced in culture SO much as to real
| ize the vulgarty of playing at pre-
| cedence in the presence of music.
"Our twenty opera houses hold 5.OOC
| people each. No seat is more than a
dollar. The best places go to those most
interested in music, and not to the rich.
| THE star nuisance was abolished years
ago. Our singers are thoroughly trained
| from infancy in the public schools, and
our artists are chosen by natural selec-
| ton.

our own people, and it is our children

The Wrong Manner.

- JEFF DAVIS, president of the Tin
~ Grant Workers Union. said at the
American road congress in Detroit:
1--WE itinerant workers, above all others
want good roads. We have been called
'hoboes.' But they who apply such a
name to us are as odiously disrespectful
and overfamiliar as the deaf man at the
dinner party:
"A deaf man, just as the oysters came
on at a dinner party, said to his host:
whats that you say? Speak up
louder, please You know my infirmity.
THE guests restrained litter. and the
host, smiling sheepishly, inclined his head
and began afresh in slightly louder
voice.
But the deaf man frowned impatiently.
Come, come he said: that won't do.
Never talk down into your collar like that
when you're addressing a deaf man..
again the guests broke into restrained
laughter The host, as red as lobster,
began third time. articulating very
slowly and distinctly.
I hear you now the deaf man inter
rupted, but l can't make out the worus
Better give 1t up. old fellow
Hang you!' roared the host. his pa
thence at last exhausted. I'm trying te
say grace, and if you interrupt me again
I'll break your jaw if l do two months
for it.

who form our orchestras. We have got
over the delusion that an Italian can
sing better than an American Music
knows no patriotism: it is international.
I'VE realize now that music is an es-
sential to morals. to culture and to civic
conscience. 1t is no longer the play
thing of the rich. 1t is the spiritual
bread and meat of the people.
.Then. in those days, they used to
sing those operas which all were drawn
from the cruel life of darker ages. You
remember-'La Traviata La Tosca.
Madame Butterfly and the like. Now
our authors have learned nobler things
They appeal to the great modern In
stincts of social justice. of life-joy and
wonder at the infinite of the majesty OF
the people, and. following Wagner. bring
out the meaning of the folklore stories
Il often think of those dark days OF
1913, when few favored folk could
hear the best music well given, and the
great people lived darkly. silently on
catching such crumbs of art as plufoc-
racy might fling them. What noble
patience the people have always had.
1.-The most significant thing in the last
hundred years hats been the growth OF
civic conscience.
What an ocean of happiness has
flooded the world since the revolution OF
1850 showed us the way to the democ-
racy of art"

Danger Signals for Color Blind.
the Engineering Record.

From the Engineering Record.
A new type of colored danger signal
advocated for use in industrial plans
consists of "a blue circle within wide
yellow rim. OF the per cent of all men
who are defective in color perception the
majority cannot distinguish red, because
red is evanescent. possesses relatively
little luminosity and fades rapidly. Since
yellow and blue are the only co!ors which
excite a normal color sensation soon
as they become visible as colored, they
can be seen at a greater distance in day
light and are more easily distinguishable
in poor light than any other color or
combination of colors. Further all other
colors appear either yellow or blue until
they pass within the yellow blue area OF
the eyes. when they are recognized, yell
low and blue are also the most luminous
colors of the spectrum and are more
permanent than red Finally. in the
rare instances in which workmen are
unable to distinguish yellow and blue.
these colors will appear red or green
to them. affordng a protection a red
sisnal could not give.
