HARVARD ONLY ONE OF
MANY IN ATHLETIC REVIVAL

Much has been written of late Of
the great revival Of sports at Harvard.
The Cambridge institution is rapidly
getting back to pre-War basis in all
lines of sports. Contrary to the de
sires of some so called Simon pure
amateurs-if indeed there is such an
animal in the whole world-the sys-
TEN of professional and seasonal
coaches is to be retained. Hugh
Duffy will have charge of the baseball
squad again and according to reports
Percy Haughton will direct the work
of the football team. Harvard is only
q sample of what is developing every
where. Never in the history of the
world was there as much sport as
there will be in the next q months.
Americans have suffered comparative
ly little in the war and might be ex
pected to react quickly to peace,
but that the British, French, Belgians
and Italians should come back almost
instantaneously was not to be ex-
pected. That is just what they are
doing, those fellows across the wat
er. The Australians have a service
cricket team that will tour Great
Britain this year and has been in
vited to extend its operations to South
Africa A bicycle ride around the
DdLLltAlCluS vi LIl6 WESTERN front,
calling for a distance of 1400 miles to
be covered in two weeks is being en-
gineered by LIE Petit Journal of Paris
Ten American boxers are TO tour the
Italian camps and put on the gloves
with the best men sunny Italy car
produce. Mention is made of the pos
silibility Of international polo matches
next summer, although the British
team that played over here severa'
years ago has practically been wiped
out on the field of action

FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL
MARKET WAS IRREGULAR

New York, March 5.-The protract-
ed advance in the stock market came
to an abrupt halt today, further
offerings of railway shares soon eX-
tending to various speculative issues,
causing general irregularity.
Failure of congress to provide fund
for maintaining the railroads was
viewed as leaving the country S
transportation system in an embar-
RAISING position, but the OpinDn
prevailed that emergency require
ments Of roads with established
credit would be met by private bank
ing accommodations
This view was supported by Di-
rector General Hines, who issued a
statement emphasizing the gravity of
latest conditions, but dismissing re-
ports of the early intention of the ad-
ministra ton to restore the properties
to private ownership.
Losses among rails ranged from one
to two points, inves tment issues
meeting with support at concessions.
In the group Comprising motors and
their accessories the setback was
more extensive, although Kelly
Springfield Tires was again absorbed,
repeating its recent maximum.
Oils, feathers and shippings con
tributed largely to the advance of the
early and mid-sessions, also tobac-
cos, sugars and fertilizers. Some of
these gain were largely forfeited to-
ward the close, where they We're not
entirely cancelled, free selling of =
S. Steel contributing to the heavy
close. Sales amounted to 7850Cl
shares.
Call money was abundantly Offered
at prevailing rates and easier con
ditions ruled in the dull market fol

increased buying of commercial paper
