 The king and queen are delighted to'hear that you contemplate another Christmas appeal.

The new plan for the Intercollegiate Tennis League among eastern colleges has been outlined as follows:
 "The league embraces Yale, liar ward, Princeton, Pennsylvania and Cornell Each team will play each other team in the league a match of at least four men, four singles and two doubles; if possible, a six man match will be played. These matches will take place in the spring of the year, and an intercollegiate league cham pionship banner will be awarded the leading team at the end of the season.

SPORTS Gossip About Events of National Importance and the Persons Who Are in the Head
 Liner Glasses.

NEW YORK, Nov 16 - The sale or the Boston American League club, within month after the team had won the worlds championship, is thought by many close followers of baseball politics to mark the first of number Of changes and readjust- ments in major league circles. For mer President ]. ] I.annln made no secret of the fact that the Red Sox were for sale, and if rumors and in her circle gossip can be accepted at face value several other club owners are just as willing to dispose of their holdings, but lack the frangness of Lannin.
 The president of the Boston Aeri cans placed a price of $750,000 upon the club early in the present year. and it is understood, was offered and refused $500,0OO Under the circum- stances the sale of the Red Sox, while the glamor of the worlds series vic tory was still fresh, at $G75,000 ap- pears in the light of a compromise. Judging from past results and attend ance figures at Boston the new own CTS made an excellent deal when the value of the club franchise and park property is taken into consideration.
 The Boston Club entered the Ameri- can league in 1901 and since that sea son has won the junior league pen nant five times and the worlds cham pionship three times. In the sixteen years the Red SOx finished fourth or better every season except in 1906 7-8 and 1911. The average position of the team for the full period works out as 3 1-4. Furthermore, Boston has always been noted as a good baseball town, supporting it's clubs with con- sistency whether winners or l0cers.
 Harry Frazee, the new head of the club, while a young man, has always been a close followers of sports and is far from being novice in the pro- noting line. In addition to his many theatrical ventures, he has backed sev- eral sporting events of more than or dinary prominence, including the heavyweight championship bout at Ha- vana, Cuba, when Jess Willard wrest- ed the title from Jack Johnson AsI a result he does not enter big league baseball circles without preliminary training. Because of his close know ledge of the amusement trend of the American public, Frazec should prove a valuable addition to the roster of baseball magnates.

With the growing prosperity of Cuba, yachting has developed into one of the leading sports of wealthy Gu bans and the Havana Yacht Club races are now a feature of the season. Many of the amateur Wachtsmen feel that they have outgroWn the Sonder type of racing craft, and orders have been placed in this country for several of tie larger racing yachts. When these a"o launched it is hoped that some of the American yachts owners may be induced to visit Cub and partici- pate in a series of international races. If the outcome of these races warrants several of the wealthy Cuban enthsi- asts may combine and challenge for the America's cup within the next few years.

Secretary Baker was particularly in

relating TO confinement in disciplinary
