 Leo Leary, who will be the field marshal of the Harvard football forces this year; at least until P. D. Haugh- ton can leave his duties at Braves Field and help out sometime in Octo- Der, was the principal speaker at the meeting. He promised the men an- other team that could do things to Yale provided the men did all they could.

Dadmun, the new Crimson leader, also spoke briefly.

l. What do you think of transferring the Bridgeport baseball franchise to >F'itchburg, Mass, and leaving this city without a. club in tue Eastern league this season? That proposition was made to. Secretary Reddy of the local club in a talk over the long distance phone yesterday.
 J. H. Collins of Fitchburg made the offer to Reddy. He said .Fitchburg sportsmen were very anxious to have an Eastern franchise and as they have a wealthy packer they won't hesitate to spend money to achieve their ob- ject. Secretary Reddy did not like the idea of letting the franchise go away from Bridgeport but Collins was so persistent that it was agreed he should talk with Reddy at the Eastern league meeting in Worcester today. Fitchburg is such a. small city in com parison with Bridgeport that the league directors would not be likely to enthuse over a transfer.
 The Remington Arms Athletic asso- citation, which holds an option on the Bridgeport franchise until tomorrow, will give an answer to the club owner as soon as another conference is held with Secretary Reddy.A The Arms of fcia1s are not so anxious to conduct an Eastern franchise but want to make some arrangement whereby they can get the use of Newf1eId park for the Factory league when~the Eastern league club is on the, road. They would prefer to get the use of the park without buying the franchise.
 Danny Hoffman, former star out fielder of the Athletics, New York Americans and St. Louis Browns; will probably play with the Remington Arms team this season instead of go- ing out with a, minor league club. It is said that he prefers a job at the munitions plant to returning to the New York State league. Hoffman is still good player

GIANTS MAY SEND DAVY ROBERTSON
 TO PIRATE TEAM

Memphis, Tenn, April 5-A deal whereby Davy Robertson. the Giant outfle1der, is to become a member of the Pittsburgh club is in the making. according to well founded informa- ton which leaked out in the camp of the Pirates yesterday. Jimmy Ca11a- han has preached a proposition to John McGraw, and Callahan had the manager of the Giants on the long distance telephone. It all depends on what Pittsburgh has to offer in ex- change for the Giant gardener.
 Robertson has thus far failed to re- port to tEfe Giants and there are all sorts of stories afloat. Robertson de- clines to be a bench warmer, as he will have to be, now that McGraw has acquired Kauff and Roush.
 Robertson has interested a friend, a former major leaguer who is now managing club in the Virginia League. This friend has written Cal lahan, as well as President Dreyfuss, and there may be something doing. A Pittsburgh player who knows the re- ca1citrant Giant, well as the man ager who is working in his behalf, is in receipt of letter statfng that there is something doing.
 Recently McGraw gave utterance to the statement that he would soon have a talk with Callahan anent the sale or trade of 9 Giant suburbanite. Immediately tHe conclusion was reached that Jim. Thorpe was the player referred to. This belief was erroneous, as Thorpe. has been sent to Milwaukee.
 Robertson ranked ninth, among Ma tfonal League batsmen last season He stole 22 bases, and got away with 1 4 sacrifice hits. His batting average was .294.

.ROUSCH SMASHES
 HIT THAT BRINGS
 VICTORY TO GIANTS

New Orleans. La, April 5.-The hon. or of being the first pitcher of the Giants to work a full nine inning game belongs to big Jeff Tesreau. He went into the box against the Peli- cans, champions of the Southern asso- ciation, here~ yesterday afternoon, and, after a tenpestuous journey, saw his team through to victory by a score of to 4.
 For while it looked as if Jeff would respond to the call from the club house, for he was pretty badly battered before he found himself and settled down to the sort of twirling that has made him justly feared and respected in his leagu9.
 Eddie Rousch showed the fans what a real outfelder should look like, and compared to him Benny Kauff seemed rather below the standard. Rousch has a style about him, an accuracy in judging a ball and the method of catching>it, that makes~the most diff1- cult chances seem easy. There is nothing of the hippodromer about Rousch. Every ball hit at him repre- sents a piece of work. He sees to 1t that the work is well done.
 Bill Rariden was another Giant who played the game right up to the han ale. Bill made two smashing hits, scored two runs and handled the damp delivery of Jeff Tesreau in the high grade style demanded of, catchers of his rank
 Benny Kauff scored the winning run and called it a, days work. He walked in the ninth inning, was advanced by Merk1e's out at first and scored when Rousch hit the right field fence for a singe. Kauff tossed his signals in the o1theId once and misjudged a fly of (Deberry's bat.

.MULLER'S PLAYING FEATURE OF GAME
 LOST BY RIBBONS
(By wagner.)

There has been g. sneaking suspic- ion in these parts that Chief Muller was not such a basketball star as his press agent led the public to believe. In previous games the Jersey City player never caused the audience to burst into cheers but last night Muller convinced. the doubting ones that he knows the game forward and back ward. His superb playing was largely responsible for the victory Of Jersey City over the Blue Ribbons at Colonial ball by 20 to IT. The Chief caged five goals and was wonder at floor work.
 Because of injurX to Jimmy Clinton, the Ribbons were compelled to make a change in their lineup. Schmelke of the New York Nationals paired with Beckman on the forward line. The newcomer had bad luck in shooting, but displayed all around ability.
 The Jersey City boys played much better than in their former visits here Reich was a whirlwind at forward and Skeets Wright was also good. The Ribbons found their team work shat tered by the absence of Clinton but fought a. p1ucky, uphill battle. The visitors had a lead of to at one part of the first session but the Rib buns rallied and had brought the score to to at the end of the half.
 z The second half was very exciting. The Ribbons kept pace with their op- ponents and were only one point be- hind until the last few minutes of play when Jersey City went ahead. The score: Blue Ribbons. Jersey City. Beckman .... R. F. .... Reich Schmelke ...:.. L. F. ...... Wright Leonard .. c. ....... Muller Roach .z..>...... R. G. -.. .. .Bigane Swenson ...... L.

INFLUENCE.

1t is well to remember that
what you have that you can't
help but give away is your infu-
ence.
Bear in mind that your inf1u-
ence is never wholly absorbed,
nor does it disappear into moth
ingness. 1t counts again and
again. Influence has no end.
The three greatest objects in
life-friends, happiness. success
are each dependent upon prop
err influence. So it is good to
know that even the humbiest
person is, after all, master of his
own influence. He can send it
out to scatter sunshine or shad-
ows. It's his choice.
A mans greatest responsible
ity in this world lies in the way
he acquires and gives out his in
fuence.
Your influence today is sure to
nave a tremendous bearing upon
the total work of the world.
Your influence upon other peo-
pie and the influence of other peO-
pie upon you are sure to become
force and factor in the COM
plete work of your day and
theirs.-George Matthew Adams.

@ VERY one should have on hand
directions for removing va
rious stains which are apt to
disturb ones peace Of mind at
some time or other.
A grease spot on silk is a common
thing, and yet in many cases it could
easily be removed by applying paste
made of equal parts Of powdered
French chalk and fuller's earth. AL
low the mixture to remain on the spot
for few days, and then brush it off.
Iron rust, the bugbear Of many
housekeepers, can often be effaced by
applying lemon juice and salt. Spread
the stained article in the sun and keep
the stained portion moist with lemon.
Wash the article in the regular way
when the stain has disappeared.
Milk applied to a fresh ink stain
will prove successful in removing it,
but the trouble is that the ink usually
spills when there is no milk near at
hand. In this event the unfortunate
one must wait until it is convenient
to purchase oxalic acid. Having pro-
with cold water before the acid is ap-
piled, drop by drop. Allow it to stand
a few minutes, and then rinse the
stained article in cold water, to which
a little ammonia has been added. A
medicine dropper Is a splendid thing to
use to apply the acid.
1t is advisable for every woman who
10 + ot
marred her linen in the summer to
place the linen out in the frost now
that real winter days are here.
Stubborn tea stains can be eradicat-
ed by spreading the stained portion
over a bowl and pouring glycerin
through the material Afterward pour
boiling water.
Boiling water poured from height
will also remove coffee stains.
