Outfelder and Infelder
at Chicago Conferences
By W. ]. Macbeth

Colonel Jacob Rupert, president of
the New York American League base
ball club, departed yesterday after
noon on the Twentieth Century Limited
for Chicago to attend the big baseball
conference. The Colonel is of the
opinion that absolute harmony in the
promotion of this professional sport
will prevail before the end of the week
and that the minors. after settling
their differences, will be brought back
into the fold under working agree
ment fair and equitable to all
The Colonel went West in high hope
that several important deals might be
put through to further strengthen the
makes no bones of the fact that nothe
ing will be left undone to bring a
notable left fielder and high-class
in6elder to New York Colonel Rup-
pert will meet Manager Miller Hug
gins in Chicago to-day and, after q
conference, the two will get busy with
the opposition in an effort to blast out
two stars who should assure the mid
get manager the very best chance of
the Am rican League field.
NATURALLY | cannot intimate whom
we are after" said Colonel Rupert.
"A premature announcement might
spill the beans. But we have good
trading material that would benefit
certain other clubs which have players
that could be spared who woud help
us. The Yankees have already nego-
tlated two trades which believe will
benefit our team and at the same time
strengthen both Boston and Washing
ton.
1--WE are not looking for something
for nothing and are willing to paw the
price. l have high hopes of landing at
least two men this week who would
greatly enhance our chances the COM
ing year. I believe we are in posi-
tion to make alluring propositions.

Mays Here on Visit

Carl Mays, the manipulation of the
celebrated subway ball, was visitor
at tie Yankee Offices yesterday. Mays
and his wife are in New York on
shopping tour.
NO one was more pleased than I to
read Of the trade between the Yankees
and Red Sox," said Mays. 81 certainly
shall be glad to hook up with Wally
Schang as battery mate again.
Schang may not be the best catcher in
the world, but he is the best for me.
We understand each other thoroughly.
And | consider him one Of the best
of the game at that. Schang has i'm
proved wonderfully the last couple Of
years. He is no longer erratc. He is
possessed of a fine throwing arm and
he carries sock that would be vel
coined by any club. He is, in my opin-
ion, the fastest catcher in the business.
especially in getting down to first base.
Though | regretted to see Muddy
Ruel go for he is going to be great
catcher in a year or so), think New
York got all the better of the deal
with Boston. Waite Hoyt should be
one of the best right handlers of the
business inside two years.
II was also greatly pleased when
heard the club landed Bobby Roth,
concluded Mays. "He should be SEN
sation in New York"

Columbia Quintet
Beats Princeton
InClOse Contest
From a Special Correspondent

PRINCETON, N. j., Jan. 10.-The
Princeton basketball team was defeated
here this evening by the Columbia
quintet in a closely fought game to the
tune of 90 to "a. The game was char
acterized by the sturdy passing of the
Morningside five and the inaccurate
shooting of the Tigers. The Princeton
aggregation went on the floor severely
handicapped by the absence of two of
their star players-Captain Netts, who
was unable to start at the last minute,
and Legendre, who has not yet re-
turned to college.
Columbia started off with rush at
the opening whistle and picked up two
field goals and a goal from foul before
Princeton was able to score through a
field goal by Dickinson. The Tigers,
however, were unable to find them
selves and continued to trail. The half
was featured by the sensational shoot
middle of the floor.
Columbia also prohted by Johnson's
foul shooting, which was almost per
cage the ball for Princeton. The period
ended with the score of 10 to s, with
Columbia holding a lead which was
never to be headed.
The second half saw Princeton some
what rejuvenated by the interval and
they started off with rush, but we're
soon overwhelmed by series of SEN
sational shots and passes by Johnson
and Watson of the Columbia five.

there will be no admission fee, no col

We oppose bone-dry prohibition
law MIR. Chambers statement said,
'on the ground that it infringes upon
that personal liberty guaranteed to
every citizen by the Constitution of
the United States. We do not advo-
cate the return of the saloon. but
favor an amendment that will permit
the sale of light wines and beer Part
of the money used in enforcement of
the prohibition law is needed for
good roads that would add ten times
their value to the farming communi-
ties they penetrate. With bootleg
ging rampant, the government is
powerless to prevent adulteration.
The result is the wholesale peddling
of poison that oftentimes produces
insanity or death. Absolute prohibi-
tion is a dismal failure. Beer and
light wines should be allowed as aids

Milk Producers to Ask
Half-Cent More i'm Julv

Producers prices for fluid milk for
July are about q half-cent a quart
more than prices for June, according
to announcement made yesterday by
the Dairymen's Cooperative League,
whose directors met at the Murray
Hill Hotel
The increase, it was explained, is
due to a drought that has cut down
the hay crop. Some report the hay
crop is so per cent less than normal
This will mean, dairymen say, IN
creased cost of production, scant pas
turage and a reduced flow of milk.
The leagues directors recommended
the following producers prices for
milk during July:
Glass /. Fluid milk, $500 per 100
pounds for 8 per cent milk at the
200-210 mile freight zone. Glass 9. Milk
for cream, plain condensed and ice
cream. $1.55. Glass 5. Milk for sweet
ened condensed, evaporated and milk
powder, $1.50, and Glass 4, milk for
butter and American cheese to be de-
termined by average wholesale prices
during the month of delivery.
