Work on Fundamentals,

Coach Carnage In the first
workout for the East Side High
School after the Shinnston game
gave the squad a long drill In
fundamentals, and q considerable
amount Of time was spent on
tackllng and taking out the new
tackling dummy. As the boys
charged on the dummy, the coach
stood by and handed out advice
and criticism on the manner in
which they tackled and blocked.
There was no scrimmage last
evening. There will be a scrim-
mage this afternoon, however,
Coach Carnage announced this
morning. II Is not likely that
there will be more than two
scrimmage sessions this week, as
the East slders are booked for a
game at Grafton on Friday after
noon. Followers OF the team ara
confident that the boys will play
a much better game against Jas.

against shinnston. The members
OF the squad are not making any
alibis for their showing In the
opening game. but are in there

clash

There was some keen repartee
passed around at the workout OF
the Falrmont High School squad
yesterday afternoon. Ice sent his
men through long Grill in pre-.
preparation for the game with
West Monongah on Saturday
morning. During the early part
Of the workout, Ice was trying out
several men at making the kick
on. They were kicking from a
mud tee. Ted Nicholas complain
ed that he never kicked from a
tee.
What have you been doing all
summer?" asked Ice.
We'll, l never kicked one from
thing Ike that" said Ted.
What's the matter = think
they put the ball in scrimmage to
start the game" said the coach.
That held the little heavy
weight.
While the game Saturday with
West Monougah should go to
Falrmont by a good margin. Ice Is
not taking any chances OF having
his men think It is a pipe dream.
He's driving them hard each day.
Jasper Colebank. Ward Lanham
and Fred Chenoweti, will likely
be the officials.

Interborough Securities Advance

Sharp advances in tho securities of
the Interborough Rapid Transit Com
pany and related companies yesterday
indicated n favorable response to the
tentative plan for adjustment Of the
difficulties between the company and
the Manhattan Elevated stockholders.
There was exceptionally active buying
of lnterborough refunding bs which
opened with an overnight gain Of 8&
points ut 68 and subsequently shaded
down to 6d r. the not rise for the day
being 5h points. Interborough Metro
politan hs finished 3 points higher on

Tho final full hve-hour session Of

Irregularity. yet underlying strength,
Of industrial shares WAS q reflection
of the changed technical position after
- another week Of mounting prices. The
unique features OF the days market
were the frmncss of New York City
traction issues as d result of the an
nouncement of the tentative compro-
mise plan for establishing new rela-
tionships between the Manhattan EIe-
vatcd and the lnterborough Rapid
Transit Company. and. secondly, the
increased relative strength and mar
ket activity Of railroad shares, com
pared with industrials,
The rise Of stardard railroad stocks
10 new high levels was another cx-
preston Of the unwllinrnose Of spccu-
lators TO interpret the coal strike as
an adverse factor. even for those rail
roads which are known as coal roads
and which transport huge quantities OF
the fuel. Part o. thc heightened
speculation in rails was due TO switches
from industrials on the part of the
last shifting operators, who became
uncertain of the immediate possibil-
ties of the industrials, which began
on Thursday afternoon TO reveal a
tendency to react.
Toward the close operators paid
larger attention to tho industrials, and
they closed the session with little net
changes for tho day. Tho market rep
resented clash between profit taking
sales and extensive purchases by
spectators for the rise
There was some profit taking in
bonds, too, but, with the fractions

the tremendous buying power which

Bearing Upon Mergers

Recent Improvement in conditions in

per upon negotiations looking toward
mergers. Already the three company

ton or seven concerns in this indus
try were disturbed rather than pro-
motcd. Ihc merger movement in sugar
has dWindlcd TO include fewer com

talk of gamntons in the copper
industry has tapcrcd Off. The better
ment not only in the outlook but in
current operations in several fields is

earlier had been inclined TO the view
that in consolidation there is strength,
that they can probably stand alone

an old-time bull move was staged in

at Its closing price of 83 showing a
net advance for the day of 113a points.
ihe stock had been relatively dormant
ior the last few weeks and it was the
bcIlef or some observers that this NAV
nave encouraged some daring specu-
iators to sell it short. The rapidity of
the rise indicated that much Of the
buying was for the short account. I'm
portance was attached, however, to the
announcement that the company has
reduced its notes at banks to $lOO, 900

land is the logical place, but there
are other places that can be used
as headquarters. But what is
necessary to be done. Several of
the things necessary are:
1. AS large a membership as
possible. We should have one of
