FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL
MARKET CLOSED STRONG. 5
Until the Final Hour Trading Was
 Marrow and Contracted.


 New York, Feb. 2F'or a time today the market threatened to yield a very considerable part of the ground re- gained in the previous days dealings, prices evincing a strong tendency to react on comparatively small offerings.
 This condition was completely read- justed later. however, when the llsts almost as a whole, rose well above highest quotations of the early week Until the final hour trading was moderate and more contracted, the leaders, aside from United States Steel, consisting of such mixed issues as Crucible Steel, Mexican Petroleum, U S. Industrial Alcohol and Mercantile Marine preferred. 1t was the unusual character of these shares which gave early pause to the market.
 Less was heard, specuiat1vely and otherwise, of President Wilson's speech and if the Appam incident added to the complicated situation it was not dis cernible in the course of international shares. London was again a seller of Fries, Canadian Pacific and some of the lesser metals, but these were easily absorbed on advancing prices.
 The more conspicuous shares of the munitions group were only fairly strong at first but became more active and almost buoyant, in fact, the sole ble Steel Baldwin Locomotive and Studebaker showed gains of two to six points over yesterday'as final figures. Their rise was accompanied by the usual romurs of more war contracts.
 Failure of the American Smelting directors to increase the common divi- sdend was temporarily disappointing, but all metals strengthened later on indications of an increase in the future demand for copper. Oils, motors and less distinctive issifes were hree to seven points higher a gain of IS for Willys- Overland at 218. Abelated de- mana for shares of the independent steel companies was helpful to United States Steel, which made gain of 1 3-S to 83 1-2
 Rails formed only 8. small part of the day's dealings, with an uncertain trend for some leading issues, despite the publication of additional favorable December earnings. Total sales of stocks amounted to 660.000 shares.

RIsKINc LAuRELs
 A BUSINESS PROPOSITION
Expensive Operation to Bring Cham
 pions Out of Refinement.

To bring out of retirement a cham pion in any line of sport, who has held the titular honors for some years, in order that he may test his strength and skill against younger and really formidable opponent is an expensive operation. A champion with the lust for battle dulled by years of compe- tition and secretly doubtful of his abil- ity to hold bis own with more youthful challenger considers such a match a business proposition in which he risks his hard earned laureIs for so much money and the sum is usually so high that 1t is an excel lent balm inl case the title passes from his possession.
 The promoters who>are planning to bid for the Gotch- -Stecher wrestling contest are going to discover this fact when the time comes for the making of bids for the match. While the Iowa champion and the Nebraskian cha 1lenger are far from being matched at this time, there is no question that they will meet on the mat for the worlds catch -catch-can ehampion- ship within the next year. Gotch has already begun training and will so au start upon a country wide tour meet. ing all corners in short time bouts Stecher is rapidly increasing his reputation and popularity by meet ing opponents in various big cities in accordance with lengthy schedule prepared before he left his home in

HARVARD ATHLETES
 WEIGHING IN THE BALANCE
Crimson Stars Must Make Good in
 Their Studies.


 Harvard students who have more aptitude for athletics than for text books are being weighed in the bal ance by the college authorities this week On the direction in which the scales drop will depend the eligibility of a large number of athletes whose services are needed for the varsity crew, track and baseball teams as well as for the minor sport teams
 Near Danger Line.
 Mid-years examinations, which test severely the information accumulated by the students for the whole half year have in the past tended to weed letes who have been unable to hurdle them with satisfactory scholastic grades. Numerous stars on the vari- ous teams that will represent Har- yard in sports this spring are said to be near the danger line, and those who sentenced to term of non-participa- tipn in athletics
 Baseball. crew and track men who do not succeed in meeting the usual academic requirements at Harvard will be thrust in the background and their services will be lost to their teams until the next chance to make good in studies is presented to them late in April Students who are on probation are now denied the privilege DL MAGIlC1l8 W1ln Ln61T IellOW Qlay- CTS in anticipation of improving their scfolarship. however, and failure to make good at the mid-year now means a serious setback to an athlete.
 Gridiron Men Being Prodded.
 A baseball player who cannot prac- tice with the rest of the team until late in April or a track man or oars man who cannot join his squad until that time loses all the valuable pre- Iininary training. This obstacle has proved to be too. great for good ath- letes to surmount in previous years. so failure in mid-year exams actually means the elimination of some men.
 Football players who are counted on for next falls high marks in their exams. even though they are not counted on to take part in spring ath- letfcs. Once a student falls below par in his studies, the task of regain ing safe position on the office rank list is increased. The football direc- tors have enough troubles in bringing good material to Soldiers field in the fall without losing star men through bad preparation for the exams.

 Gotch is thirty eight and Stecher is

 that he has always been moderate and methocical in his habits and train ing.
