He said he was not sure Clark was at home, but requested me to wait and he would find him if possible.

EASTERN ASSOCIATION uMPIREs
Selected Four on Recommendation.

Selected Four on Recommendation.
 President O'Rourke has signed his umpires for the Eastern association staff and the list has been announced today. He took the four upon the rec concentrations of wise baseball men and he thinks they will give satisfac- tion. If they don't deliver the league pilot has a large number of applicants from whom he can select others.
 The staff will consist of George B. Barnett of Louisville, Ky; NJ. J. Me Laughlin of Waycross, Ga; Martin Phelan of Troy, N. Y, and P. J. Cri- sham of Syracuse N. Y Phelan is the same fellow who played first for Bridgeport in 1909. He has since um- pired in the Carolina and Inter-S leagues and is said to have been a success. Crisharn worked in the Tri- State league last season. He was recommended by former President Carpenter of that organization. In 1912 Crisham umpired in the Greater. Boston league.
 Mclaughlin has seen service in the Western, Central Cotton States and Three leagues. Some friends who met President O'Rourke at the Colurn bus, O.. minor league convention prais- ed Mclaughlin highly. Barnett is the giant of the bunch. He weipbs z0O and stands six feet in height. He has ofhc1ated in the Appalachian. Blue Grass and Kansas leagues and RiIIv Neal, scout for the Philadelphia Na tonals, recommends him.

There appears to be little possibility of an Oxford or Cambridge undergrad uate rugby football team accepting the invitation of the University of Califor- mia and Stanford university to visit the Pacific coast for series of games dur ing the Panama-Pacific exposition in 1915. Such a trip would take the kng- fish students away from their studies for too long period. A tour may be made. however. by a fifteen composed of old blues. Many of the old blues keep up their rugby play for many years after leaving college by joining various club teams. and a team of alumni judlciously selected would probably prove a more formidable or Sanization than a regular varsity squad. Such a team would probably consist of Cambridge as well as OK ford men. as it is known that certain former Cambridge stars have been asked if they are in a position to con- sider such a trip.

TWENTY YEARS ON THE CNDER PATH

Clark returned the money to his pocket, and soon afterwards. excusing himself for a minute, entered a room in the rear, from which he passed into the back yard, scaled the fence and disappeared. After some time had elapsed Schardien became suspicious and sought in vain for Clark He then notified the police, but no trace of Clark could be found.

I decided to try and locate him, and went at once to Newark, first going to Holmes saloon on Broad street, where I was told Clark had left Newark some time pre- vious.

The second eight is oft en entered in outside races like the American Henley and has become well adapted to organized rowing be- fore it is .disorganized and compelled to learn four cared technique. Anoth- CT Yale argument advanced is that the race of the second eights would bring more oarsmen into the regatta At Yale the belief is held that Harvard will ultimately fall into line in favor of the change.

Soon after my two mile race with Hegelman at the New London county fair I paid a visit to my old friend and packer, Albert Schardien at Elizabeth. N. J., and found him in a rather dis tlrbed state of mind owing to a clever trick played upon him by Jerry Clark, the English runner. whom I had de- feated in 1890 in a mile at Orange, N. J. On the day before my arrival Sharddien was surprised by receiving a visit from Clark, whom he invited into a nearby saloon where they found local runner, named Schultz. stand ing at the bar. During the conversa- tion that followed Schultz boasted that he could outrun any man in Elizabeth at mile for S100 a side.

Yale Wants to Abolish It, and Believes
 That Harvard Will Abolish 1t.

Yale Is decidedly favorable to the idea of abolishing the varsity four pared race, but is opposed at Harvard, and indications are that it will not be given up. to be substituted by Q race between the second varsity eights.
 Last year Yale asked Harvard to make the change to a second varsity eight two-nile race, replacing the fours, but Harvard declined. The stew ards of the college races on the Hud- son have taken up the idea and have made the change. Yale has renewed the request that the change be put in- to effect this year, but Harvard seems unwilling, and the matter will proba- ply be dropped for this season.
 The Yale argument is that the war sity oarsmen work in eight-oared shells
