COAL SHORTAGE
BECOMES CRITICAL
Iron Trade Faces Serious Sit
uation, the Iron Age
Says Today

New York, Dec. IL. - The iron
trade is face to face with much
more serious shortage than that
which has been a matter of concern
for weeks, says the Iron Age to-day.
Even though work be resumed
promptly at bituminous coal mines
as the result of the Indianapolis con-
ference, restrictions on the distribu-
ton and use of such fuel are likely
TO continue for weeks and their re-
moval will be only by degrees.
Under the latest restrice order or
the Fuel Administration, effective
Wednesday, December 10, beehive
coke ovens are limited to SO per
cent of the coal charged into them
in November, and by-product ovens
are put on 80 hours coking time,
practically cutting their output by
so per cent. Ten days enforcement
of this order would cause nearly hair
the blast furnaces of the country to
bank or blow out.
With the added possibility of snow
blockades, the outlook for iron ana
steel production in the next two
months is thus more serious than at
any time, not excepting the smut
down period covered by the famous
Garfield order of January z, 1918.
1t took a sharp furry in the coke
market last week to bring into play
an order from Washington restoring
wartime prices, which were Sc at
oven for blast furnace coke and 81
for foundry coke. When the 20 per
cent reduction in coal supply for bee
hive ovens was made, effective De-
cember /, there was a scramble to
get blast furnace and foundry coke.
While very little could be had, the
price for spot furnace coke rapidly
advanced and as high as $12 was
done, while foundry coke sold up
to SIS.
Thus far, iron and steel producing
plants seem to have been hurt more
than those of consumers. AT Gary,
Ind, eight blast furnaces are active
and four are out. At South Chicago
FIVE are in and six idle. A Canton,
Ohio, furnace has stopped and TWO
more in eastern Pennsylvania. Some
open-hearth plants are turning to oil
to help out.
In the Pittsburgh district sheet and
tin plate operations are much re-
stricted. The American Sheet & Tin
Plate Company, which has closed 40
hot sheet and tin mills in Indiana,
has 46 hot mills idle in western
Pennsylvania. An independent plant
at Canonsburg, Pa, is shut down. Al
youngstown the week opened with
very sharp curtailment at the plants
of four independent steel companies.
In all iron and steel operations the
using up of reserve coal means
constant liability to shutdowns
through the winter.

BERRY is CORNELL'S
GRADUATE MANAGER
Succeeds Kent in Charge OF
Athletics at Ithaca In
stituti0n.

Romeyn Berry of this city yesterday
announced his acceptance Of the POSI-
ton OF graduate manager OF athletics
at Cornell University, succeeding @. Err
win Kent, who resigned last year to
enter war service.
Berry, who was prominent In athletic.
fraternity and literary circles at Cor
nell as an undergraduate about nfteen
years ago. will give up his law practice
in this city and live at Ithaca In order
to reorganize and develop athletics at
Cornell upon a broader scale than here
tofore attempted in Eastern colleges.
He is a member Of the American Olym-
pic committee, Intercollegiate A. A. ad-
visory committee and the National Col
legiate A. A. rules committee. In out
lining his plans Berry said:
cornell now has the largest play
ground and the smallest grandstand OF
any OF the larger colleges. am going
back to Ithaca as graduate manager OF
athletics to help develop the idea back
of that fact.
intercollegiate competition between
varsity teams under careful faculty con-
troll is q good thing. but OF course, not
enough men are directly benefited by
II. The way to correct that Is not to
destroy varsity sport, but to encourage
It and at the same time to get all OF
the students on the playing field or the
water between and in the after
noon. most of them as members OF some
team or crew. That's what we have
been doing at Ithaca. and what we
want to do to a still larger degree"

AUSTRALIAN TEAM
IN TENNIS TOURNEY
Brookes, Patterson, Lycett and
Thomas to Compete in Ma
tional Singles and Doubles.

Interest In the American lawn tennis
championships was doubled yesterday
when II became known that an Aus
tralian team. composed Of Norman E
Brookes Gerald L. Patterson. r. Lycett
and r. v. Thomas. would come here for
tho national singles and doubles. The
Australians will loave Liverpool on board
the Aquitanis on next Sunday and will
arrive here on July 20.
The chances are that the visitors will
play not only In the national events but
II, the major cycle of tournaments lead
ing up to the singles at Forest Hills.
They will be invited to begin their cam
paign on July 2S In the classic at Sea-
bright.
It was in 1914. in the Davis cup
matches at Forest Hills. that an Aus
halian team last played in this country.
At that time the visiting team was
headed by Brookes and the late Anthony
+. Wilding. Now Brookes comes again,
but he comes In eclipse by the latest ten
mis- sensation. Patterson. surnamed "Iur-
ricane," In imitation of Mclaughlin the
Comet. Patterson surprised the tennis
world on Monday when he defeated
Brookes In the challenge round for the
British championship at Wimbledon and
turned the trick in straight sets.
Plays American style.
English tennis critics are not exactly
crazy about the Hurricane because they
hold that his tennis violates all the
tenets of the game. The complain be-
cause he bases his game largely on an
American style service that comes over
like a hurricane, and on American
methods Of close UP to the net. But
in spite Of the complaint of the old
school. Patterson appears to get there
His play will be watched with all the
greater interest In this country. since his
style is modelled after the California
way of doing things on the court.
While Brookes has played here. Pat
terson. Lycett and Thomas will be
making their American debut. It had
been expected that S. N. Doust who
captained the Australian team which
played here In 1918. would come with
the Australians He Is in England.
A. w. Dunlop also was expected. but
he too withdrew when It was decided
that only Australians were to make the
trip at this time. 1t may be that Doust
and others will stop here on their way
back to Australia
