Tonight at Bartlett gymnasium
the conference basketball title will
be decided. Illinois, with clean rec

dropped a single game. Should the
DOWNSTAIRS win they will be cham

race only by downing the state quin-
tet.
JOHNNY Grffffths bested Younfi Shu-
grue in II rounds at Akron, o. The
New York lightweight won three

mean another efficient arbiter added
to what is already the best corps of
play directors who have been got
ten together.
That is one count on which full
credit must be given Ban Johnson
and the other directors Of the Amer
lean league. The umpiring has al
ways been good, and each, year there
is steady Improvement. The Amer
lean has never had any of the umpire
troubles which beset the National
league.
Sullivan decided to apply to Ban
Johnson for a place in the, umpiring
corps. Charley Somers, president of
the Cleveland club, agreed to indorse
the application. and President Co
miskey Of the White Sox can be
counted on to support his ex-catcher
to the limit Of his influence.
Sullivan, during his long period of
activity in the American league, gain
ed the friendship of players and fans
alike, ana ne also knows all the line
points of the game. He should have
little trouble making good, as he
would start with everything in his
favor.
There is a precedent for the APP
pointment of Sully. Bill Deneen,
former, Boston Red Sox pitcher, was
given a job of umpiring in 1910, and
he proceeded to make good. Sullivan
should be just as successful.
The umpiring staff for 1915 has
been filed by the American league,
but there is a chance that Sullivan
will get an extra place and fill in
when any regular is incapacitated.

Curtis Bay Distillery
To Use uban MoIssses.

The Curtis Bay Distilling Company
is signing contracts for the delivery
Of molasses next month to be used in
the production of denatured alcohol
thus indicating that another of the
curtis Bay industries will be in oper-
alton within short time.
Tremendous quantities OF the raw
material will be needed by the plant
and most of the molasses will be
brought in tank steamers from Cuba.
At present the interests back of the
plant operate a big molasse refinery
at New Orleans. but the indications
are that that plant will be closeC
down, as all the raw material obtain
able from the Cuban fields will be
needed by the Curtis Bay plant. 1t is
figured that the profit on the denatureo
alcohol will be much in excess of the
profit from the sale of molasses for
commercial purposes.
The New Orleans trade organizations
have been much exercised over this
inroad by Baltimore plant into an
established industry, and it has given
them much concern Recently repre-,
sentatives of the trade organization
and of the Illinois Central Railroad
came to inspect the Curtis Bay plants
and 10 confer with the officials with 3
view of preventing the diversion Of
much trade. In fact. before locating
there. the officials of the Curtis Bay
Distillery Company considered ser
ously the advantages of New Orleans
as site for the plant, but decided IL
favor of Baltimore.
1t was also learned today that the
plant of the United States Distiliery
Company. in course of erection al

creditable in view Of the fact that the
visitors frequently run up scores of
seventy or eighty points against the
average teams. The visitors played q
beautiful passing game, and in their
open work on the court showed
superior form TO nearly all the strong
college teams which have been seen
here. In fact. a game between the
Centrals and the strongest college
teams would be of great interest, and
their relative strength has often been
discussed. The new rules favor the
passing game at which the Y Nj. c.
A. players are so strong.
The Gunners played without the
services of Jones, who has shot so
many goals in their games this season.
However. De Conway and Muhlmeistre
were in excellent form, and each Sc
cured three goals from the Court. De
Conway also shot eight goals out of

CHURCH NOTES
BAPTIST, ]. NJ. Sullivan. Pastor.

The 'All day" service at
White Plains last Sunday was
a success, if weather conditions
were little unfavorable for
dinner on the ground.
The Missionary Program by
the Sunday school was fine, in
that it was both Entertaining
and instructive. Giving valu-
able and helpful information
in regard to our Home and For
eign Mission work.
The offering amounted to
$13.84 and the ladies had already
raised among themselves S4.O5
making d total of Sl7.89.
The B. Y. P. U. are planning
to 90 over and be with the
Providence folks the Four th
Sunday afternoon.
Next Sunday we hope TO have
a Missionary Rally at Pageland.
We hope to have with us some
of our best laymen. Among the
speakers will be the following
from Chesterfield: Rev. B. S.
Funderburg, Brethern G.. H. and
Kirby Rivers, t. w. EddinS. and
others if we can secure them.
We are not going to have din
ner on the groud hut of course
we expect to see that these visit
ing brethern are we'll fed.
Let us pray for these services,
as they will mean much or little
to us, according TO the amount
OF interest we put into them.
