Corn finished un- changed to 1-Sc higher oats 1-S to 1-42 off and provisions showing an upturn of 12 to 4oc-
 Chief attention in the wheat trade centered on the fact that hedges were re- moved on between 1000. 900 bushels and s1, ,5eo,e0o bushels sold for export. The export business was done, too, in the face of assertions that Argentine wheat was quoted ten cents a bushel cheaper than current figures in the United States. Much notice was also taken of signs of l improvement in the -four trade Bulls contended that the United States al-
 ready had exported too much wheat and i that reserves to last until next harvest were uncomfortably small On the ad-
 vance howeyer,s profit taking by long l did good deal to force a reaction and

FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL
MARKET WAS ACTIVE

Neu York Jan. 11.-On tho largest and most varied dealings so far this year, approximating turnover or l,2O0.- 900 shares the stock market today strengthened it's forward movement of the preceding session. a
 In it's general aspects the advance ap- peared to be largely of speculative origin. Special shares in which an extensive short interest is believed to exist dis played the greatest activity and scored the largest gains.
 Factors which again contributed to the advance included the increase strength of foreign exchange, and the easier trend of money. The latter development ex- tended to time funds, which were in more liberal supply than at any period in the past six months-
 Other advices pertaining to market values were of the customary conflicting character, ranging from resumption of activity at ccrtain industrial centers to further price-cutting and wage reduc- tions elsewhere.
 Associated with the further rise of in- ternational renittNnces were rumors Of impending loans or credit extensions to France and Switzerland. but in well post ed quarters these were regarded as some what premature. -'
 SteslS, Fhnppiass' equFpiiieheS- anu opo cialties, the latter mainly of the food variety. comprised the strongest issues. crticible again leading the list at a net gain of 1-2 points, or a fraction more than yesterdays advance. otherwise gains of to points were impaired by realiZ- ing sales and the backwardness of rails, which at no time kept pace with the gen. eral market and closed for the most part at moderate recessions.
 Aside from some of the foreign munich nal issues. which enhanced recent gains the bond market lacked definite trend many popular issues reacting with the Liberty group and convertible rails To- tai sales (par value) aggregated s12.675.- oOo. Old [. s. government bonds were unchanged on call.

ORGANIZED BASEBALL NOW


 Chicago Jan. H.. Organized. baseball brought under the control. of Federal Judge Kenesaw M. Landis for at least seven years when the drafting committee | of the National Association of Minor Leagues officially voted approval of the lneW national agreement, already accepted | by the two major league committees, which creates the office of a baseball com missioner with supreme powers and with | Judge LandiS as the first incumbent All that remains to put the agreement into effect is the official approval of the various league representatives as a whole, which probably will be given tomorrow. | Baseball men tonight said the presenta- I tion of the agreement to the club owners | tomorrow would be mere formality' and that the action of the drafting com
 mittee virtually constituted formal ac- | ceptance by all the parties concerned l The minor leaguers had been doubtful | as to whether a man agreeable to them
 would be chosen when Judge Landis term
 expires, but this matter was quickly set tied by the proposition from. the. majors that the minors sign the agreement for only seven years-the term of Judge | Landis' contract At the end of that tine
 if new commissioner is chosen, either a
 man who meets with the approval of the
 minors must be chosen or they may with
 draw from the agreement
 The advisory board provided in the
 agreement to settle baseball disputes will contain two minor league representat--e under the new agreement, the other two members to be the presidents of the Ma } tional and the American leagues When this board is unable to settle any dispute
 the case will go before Judge Landis ae 7 baseball commissioner and his decision hA 6T7a HtaA la
 sentatives will be selected tomorrow
 The minor league representatives al 2 their meeting today voted to restore the draft. but made reservations which does not make it compulsory.
 The draft season was made from Oct 6 Is to Oct. 20 and the draft prices were p set as follows: Class A $5,0oo, Class 4 S4,ooG. Class $2,500, Class $500 . Glass D $1,o0o. l The minor leaguers also established q new scale of player and salary limits a. n follows:
 !. Class AA---No salary limit 35 player Il until 30 days after season oDens and thnl
 25. This gave the Class A leagues vir
 tually the same rules as are Ill e41l.t lu
 the major leagues
 Y Class A-Salary limit of s4,25o playe , limit of 30 for first 30 days and 20 there Il T l after.
 \ Class .B-Salary limit of ss,2oo an, i: i player limit of 20 for 30. days and thereafter.

 E Class D-salary limit of s2,4o0 an 7 player limit of Is for 30 days and 3 thereafter. o The club owners decided to classif = leagues on the basis of the last fedora census instead of the school census.

New York, Jan. 11-(By the A. P.)- Anslnvitation to the university and college crews of the world to compete in the in Intercollegiate championship regatta to be rcwed at. Poughkeepsie on June 22 was the outstanding feature of the annual meeting of the board of stewards of the | intercollegiate rowing association held there today.
 | While the blanket invitation as adopted in the form of a resolution. does not men ltien any foreign institution by name, 1t lis understood to include the English uni lvsrstties of Oxford and CanIbridge the lUnfyesity of Toronto and such colleges iof continental Europe including Scandi- lnavia- and Australasia as may maintain Ia scholastic standard similar to the found Ter members of the association-Coi 'bia, Cornell and Pennsylvania.
 In addition to this general invitation. lspecihc invitation will be issued to ether Arerican colleges which inthe past have lentered crews for the Hudson titular re- lgx<ka including. Syracuse, Wisconsin. Navy, Leland Stanford, California, Wash ingtcn and Massachusetts Institute of Technology. The broad invitation to the college crews of the world would also in ciude Princeton, Yale and Harvard but the latter two universities appear to be automatically eliminated because of the fact that the, Harvard-Yale regatta Is scheduled for New London on Friday. June 24. 4
 That the board of stewards and the ! city of Popghkeersie are preparing for an intercollegiate regatta of far greater scope than heretofore attempted is mode lcertain by the announcement that the ,Poughkeepsie chamber of commerce has to halt finance the regatta This is the first time lin the long history of college rowing on the Hudson that the association has re- ceived an offer Of outside assistance. Ii was stated that there would be no diff culty in sending away as many as fifteen eight cared crews in the varsity race ii that many entries could be secured. The largest entry. to date in the Peughksepsie regatta was h 1907. when seven crew roved over the four miles course
 The board Of stewards also decided tc adhere to their original determination t make the varsity race over a three milt z instead of a four mile course, in accord ance with the resolution adopted severa years 1So but never tried out ewing tc the entry of the United States into tht world war. It was stat E} in this connec tion that while the determina tion to holC down the feature race to three miles es abolished no precedent for 1922, it wal felt that the various universities invited and to be Invited had understood tha the main race would be at three miles ant for that reason it was considered unwis to attempt change for the coming re gatta at least.
 While many American college crew have from time to time competed in Eng land. an English varsity eight has neve crossed the Atlantic for a regatta in thi country. With the tentative understand ing existing between Cornell and Cam
 bridge for a visit of a Cantab team o
 crew to Ithaca this spring. It is hope
 that the visiting eight, If 1t comes, cal

be persuaded to remain for the big in- tercollegiate regatta. Oxford also will receive an invitation and in view of the remarkably close race between the U. s. Naval Academy eight and the Leander Boat Club crew, composed of Oxford and Cambridge oarsmen, at Brussels in the Olympic regatta last summer, it iS hoped that both will accept.
 With the date for the regatta fixed for June g, it is evident from study of the tide tables that all three races will be rowed late in the afternoon. As June S2 is the longest day. of the year. wind ard tide conditions, which might cause a post ponement of an hour or 80 will have little effect so far as daylight finish is con cefned.
 All these matters were considered be l fore the final decisions were announced by the board of stewards consisting of Charles H. Mapes, Columbia Charles
