HARVARD CREW LOOMS
 UP STRONG JUST NOW

Cambridge, Mass, May 2.-For the first time since the Harvard crew has taken to the river the order of the men in the varsity boat has remained unchanged for week And the re- suits are already apparent.
 The past week has perhaps been the most satisfactory period of develop ment since spring work was begun.
 The boat possesses plenty of life and power, the men show an easy recov- cry and their rowing is smooth. The shell glides over the water smoothly.
 A somewhat shallow finish with a corresp ponding loss of effectiveness and a response not in proportion to the power exerted has been the main fault Wray is confident, however, that he can overcome this failing. Long rows will be the order of the day and at least one race between the varsity and freshman eights.
 Said Capt. Ables in speaking of the varsity: Several causes have retard- ed the progress of the crew. The weather has been the worst we have experienced in many years, and the days when conditions have been even fair have been rare indeed.
 Another cause has been the unset tied condition of the boat itself. The order of the boat is made up of strong but inexperienced oarsmen- Three of the men, Meyer, Harwood and Pirnie, are from last years freshman eight, while ChanIer and Morgan have never rowed the four miles against Yale. But the boat as it is now seated should develop into a powerful and smoothly rowing crew..

MALCOLM BEATEN
 BY HARVARD TEAM

Cambridge, Mass, May 2-With Hitchcock holding University of Yer mont to three hitss two of which were com mbined in the first inning for a run Harvard had little trouble to beat the nine coached by George Winter, the old Boston pitcher, by a 4 to 1 score.
 Malcolm, who last season was about the best of the Eastern college pitchers, was hit safely nine times by Harvard, all the hits coming in the first five innings Between the first and ninth innings Vermont did not make a hit against Hitchcock, and the two men who stole second were the only visitors who advanced as far as that station in Vermont's last eight innings

TY COBB GETS
 OFF PRETTY EASY
Detroit Star Fined $50 by Nation al Commission for Hold
 ing Out

Chicago, May 2.-Ty Cobb, the sem sationa1 outhe1der of Detroit, was yes terday refnstated into the good graces of organized baseball by the National Commission. The triuTnyirate held a special session here to deliberate upon the sins of the Georgia peach. It was decided that the all-round cham pion of the major leagues had sul1ied the good name of the sport about $50. This sum Jennings star was ordered to pay Secretary John Bruce, of the Commission, inside of three days.
 Cobb will doubtless forward his check immediately to avoid any pos s1b1e pleasantness. The amount in voived ism much, just one slam against the "bu1l'' in any of the parks,
 It would be indeed interesting to see what the Commission would do if Ty forgot to kick in. His case shas been more or less of a, Joke-so far as baseball discipline is concerned-au along.
 Ty will not be eligible to take part in American League competition un- til the amount of his fine is in John Bruce's hands. But, nevertheless, he has been playing all week for the Tigers He was the first player of history to be allowed to participate while ineligible. President Ban John son, of the American League, gave him the necessary permission on the
 
 club. All of which makes the subse- quent action of the triumvirate ap- pear more or less in the light of a cut and dried joke.
 To maintain it's dignity and distract agitatoon of the Gallagher brand from the "audacious trust'' the commission clothed it's findings in the form of a stern rebuke or reprimand both to Cobb and the Detroit Club.
 Cobb was called to account because of his many high-handed actions, not the least of which were his various ''ultimaturns" through the press, which aroused public sympathy in his behalf to the detriment of baseball government. The Detroit club was scolded for permitting, according to it's own public confession, even this star player to disregard rules and regulations of discipline.
 The Commission will serve notice on all major league clubs that hereafter 1t will act whenever a club fails to properly discipline players whose ac- tions are detrimental to the game.

YANKEES SEND HOFF TO ROCHESTER CLUB
Chance Parts With Young South
 paw Pitcher for Good

Manager Frank Chance, of the New York Americans, yesterday released Pitcher Chester Hoff to Rochester. of the International League. This prac- tically means that he has parted com pany from Hoff for good, as the young man was Harmed out'' last season. and under baseball law, could not again be planted
 The departure of Hoff puts all of the southpaw pitching up to Al Schulz the sterling young Southerner, who has shown some class in his games so far. Hoff pitched the final inning of yesterdays game against the Athletics. He looked as good as anything that has been flashed by Yankee boxnnen this year.

Southern Michigan league, who has reported to the St. Louis Cardinals.
 Bob Harmon hit Joe Tinker the otfl- CT day, which is said to be the first time in his career that the Cincin- natl leader has been winged by a pitcher.
 The Brooklyn team has made quite an impression in the east by it's snap py work John Ganzel. the Rochester manager, predicts that DahIen's men will finish in the first division.
 The Cobb-congress controversy and in fact the refusal Of the Detroit club and player to come together at the start of the campaign was the best comedy Hughey Jennings ever pro- duced Evidently Frank Navin. knows the value of free advertising and de- cided that McGraw with Jim Thorpe was not going to get away with all the free space this spring.
 The transfer of .sPep, Young, the former Scranton infieIder, from. the New York Americans to the Sacra- mento club of the Pacific coast league is by no means a surprise. During the spring games in Bermuda and in the early championship battles for the Yankees, Young was a sensation in the fielding line, but decidedly weak with the cudgel. That has been his trouble since he entered baseball. Young never was a sticIzer. When he was travelling fast in the field he worked hard, but when he fell down on throw to second to catch a base runner his heart was wounded and he wilted. Young lacked the agggres- siveness to make a major league ball player and Chance need not bank too much upon the former state leaguer developing under Wolverton on the coast.

Cwaterbury Repubiicano

The Contenders came into their own at Rockville yesterday, wa1Ioping Genial Gene McCann's Bridgeport Mechanics ? to l in one of the pretti- est games seen around these parts since the time Mickey Finn trimmed the Bridgeport bunch for the cham pionship- Johnny Lower and Blum engaged in pitching duel, with both twirlers working overtime, and the honors resting in favor of Lower, who was strong in the pinctes-
 Wonderful fielding, especially by the Bridgeport outf1eld, characterized the settos while Bobby Stow at shortstop for the visitors covered acres of ground and was the star of the oc- casion for the Mechanics.
 Jack Hoey, Nichols and Hickey were robbed of probable triplets- through sterling catches by Sil7er, a catch in the eighth electrify1ng the $50 pres ent Bowman's stop Of Warmers rol- Ter in the sixth stanza was also one of the features of the occasion.
 Bridgeport threw a mighty scare i'm to the Waterbury camp in it's half of the ninth when with two down Phillips drove a terrific line fly to right for. three bases, but Lower frightened up and forced Stow to ground to Baker for the third out It was a close play at first, Edmonson doing a good deal Of stretching to get the bad throw. The Bridgeport team shaped up the best of any here so far this season
 Waterbury's second run, which cIinched the contest and broke the losing streak, came with two out in the sixth After Hoey and Warner had rolled to the indeld, Edmonson singled to center. He stole second. Baker got a pass and on O'ConnelPs single to left Edmonson scored, Bak- CT going to third on the hit and throw in and O'Connen taking second. With two on the paths Nagelson roll ed to the shortstop, Stow making a great throw from deep short N
 Bridgeport's first and only run in the fifth inning was garnered through Slows mighty two-base wa1lop to left field. Burns sacrifice on which War ner made a nice catch at first base on Lowers throw and BIum's timely sin gle to short right center.
 Waterbury's first run which tied up the contest came in her half of the fifth O'ConneH singled to left. Ma geIson dumped the bail in front of the plate Russell threw to second base to catch O'Connell- It would have had to be a perfect throw to catch O'ConneH, but it was wide, go- ing to center field.

YALE SENIORS IN
 KNICKERB

New Haven, May -Kntckerbockers as a distinctive costume have been adopted by the Yale senior class, and the fashion is so popular that other classes have requested permission to adopt it. The seniors, who celebrated May Day by going forth in their new garb, feel that the idea is theirs, and are reluctant to allow other classes to take 1t up. At least, they object to the others adopting the light gray which they wear.
 The garb will be worn by the seniors until commencement week.

BLUE RIBBONS IN
 GREAT GAME WIN
 FROM HUMPHREYS
By Wagner)

The Blue Ribbons are figuring today how they will spend that $1O0 they won by beating the Humphrey A. c. of New Haven last night and thereby winning the State basketball title. The boys had a tough battle but they kept in the running and finally won by 31 to 29. A big crowd packed Co., louial hall to see the contest and the fans were on the anxious, seat through out.
 The Humphreys had stronger team than when they last played here. They were strengthened by Waller, a crack guard, and their defensive play was greatly improved. FranIze1 did not get into the game. The Ribbons did not play as we'll as in, the first contest. Their shooting was bad and many easy chances were missed. Geo. Smith was the star. He directed the work of the locals and also dropped seven into the netting himself. John Leavy was in good form, tossing five baskets.
 Jim Morrison, the Ribbons crack center, found himself against a tough customer in Parks but he managed to hold his own and got two goals. Ca hill and Hurley also played well.
 Bob Stow did the stellar work for the visitors. Stow is very accurate in shooting and eight of his efforts went in the curtains last night. He also made two points from fouls. During the two games played here Stow did not miss a. foul throw.
 When the, game started the Hum phreys got the first basket and soon piled up d lead of to 2. The local soon caught them, however, and at the close of the half the score was Is to 16 Iii the second half the Ribbons forged ahead. The visitors caught them and once led by 21 to 20, but the Ribbons spurted and were never head ed. The line up:
