NEW GYM FOR HARVARD.
Undergraduates Collecting Pledges ana
 Suhscriptions.

The long continued agitation for a new and modern gymnasium at Har- ward appears to have accomplished the desired effect. President Lowell re- gently gave his official sanction te the movement and a graduate committee had been appointed to begin a cana paign among the graduates for the necessary funds. Undergraduate com mittees have been at work for over a year obtaining pledges and collecting subscriptions from the students. The graduate committee will probably in eiude those of the alumni who have been actively interester in Harvard athletics.
 General plans for the building itself have been drawn up, which will be used except for a few notifications. They call fer swimming tank, an arti= ficial ice rink and indoor tennis, squash and handball courts. The probable le- cation of the new building will be along the Charles river near Soldiers field and the boathouses. The new building will be so large that it will be impossible to use the site of the pEes- ent HemenWay gymnasium. Fhe com mittee will attempt to raise a million dollars, siX-tenths of which will be used in the construction of the build ing and the remainder as a naiRts= panes fund

Manager Dunn of the Baltimore Ori oles sent out the statement Saturday that he had signed Danny Murphy for the coming season. and the local fans are wondering what the idea of Connie Mack is. One explanation is that Mack has placed him there temporarily until he Is able to place him in a manager ship berth. Another is that owinq to the fact that there is going to be a Federal league team in Baltimore Mur- phy would be a great help to the Ori- oles.
 The rumor was circulated around the city Saturday and Sunday that the F'ederals are making a bid for his ser vices and that he Is In line for the managership of the Brooklyn Feds.
 On leaving here Sunday night for Philadelphia Murphy said that he had no statement to make concerning these rumors. that they were news to him. Danny left on the o'clock train for Philadelphia Sunday even ing to see Connie Mack, and he was accompanied by his partner, Frank Watson, who. it is understood, is to be absent about a, week. Some of Wat sons friends claimed Sunday that he had hopes of landing some business position with the Federals.
 Report from Baltimore.
 The name of the player purchased over a week ago to bolster up the Ori- ole outheld was disclosed Friday in 8. telegram sent by Manager Jack Dunn from New York, where he is attending the special session of the International league, says the Balti- more American. The new Bird is none other than Danny Murphy, for some years captain of the worlds champion Athletics, and considered one of the brainest men who ever donned the spikes.
 Manager Dunn withheld the an nouncement of the deal, which was consummated with Connie Mack last week, at the players own request The reason given for Murphy's anxiety to keep his sale to the Orioles secret was in order to obtain better price for his cafe in Norwich, Conn, which he fear ed would be solo at a bad bargain if it became known that he was no longer a White Elephant.
 The acquisition of the veteran Mack man gives the Birds one of the classi- est set of outgardeners outside of the major ranks With Murphy in right, Daniels center and Cree left, the Flock will present an outfie1d combination of fast base runners, good felders and excellent hitters.
