drastic rulings, designed to prevent any
recurrence of the scenes that marred
the last rowing classic at Poughkeepsie,
have been adopted by the board Of
stewards of the intercollegiate rowing
Association.
Late arrivals will be disqualified. Any
crew stopping the race within 80 Sec

ether than actual breakage Of equip
ment will be disqualified.
At the last I. r. A. regatta there were
many false starts, and the varsity event,
delayed by the late arrival of the Cor
nell shell, was rowed at so late an hour
that spectators on the shore could not
distinguish one boat from the other.
While the other shells waited for Cor
nell to appear, the Hudson became so
choppy and rough that four of the nine
shells failed to finish,

That's what you're liable to see

though Tilden defeated Lott in a

Doeg is his 1929 partner. When de-

Davis Cup challenge round In 1928
he did not complain, and when
thrust in there this year without
sufficient preparation in the decid-

in the world. he did his bit manfully,
and though defeated by Cochet. won
one set which was more than Tilden
could do, although he failed against

BOND VOLUME IS
 SMALL LIST FIRM
Firmness Apparent, But Little
 Demand; Prices Static

New York, Dec. 30 P)--The bond list had little difficulty in maintain ing it's flrmness today, despite the small volume of trading. High grade domestic corporation loans, espe- cially the rails and utilities. showed virtually no change from the pre- Nious close in the earlier transac- tions. The ability of these sections of the list to resist losses in the thin markets of the holiday period has been taken as a favorable indication of the markets inherent strength.
 Believe Improvement Gradual
 Many observers believe that i'm. provement after the first of tht year will be rather gradual. Rein- vestment demand frequently docs not make itself felt until some time after the disbursement of dividends and interest. In addition, it is pointed out that experienced invest ors have shown a tendency to pro- ceed cautiously ill their bond pur- chases. apparently awaiting assur- ance that money rates will be well established at lower levels, thereby setting the stage for one of the markets periodic upward swings.
 Most Of the larger changes in to- days session were in low priced issues, but dealings were light losses of about 8 point developed in scattered istances, including North American Cement 612 g, Certain-teed oEs, Cuba Dominican Sugar 7las, Chicago Great Western 4s, Seaboard gold As and few others.
 COnvertibles Are Mixed
 Buying inquiry from small invest CTS served to sustain the remainder Of the list. Convertibles were mix cd. movng up moderately on l,.c strength Of the early advance in stocks and then shifting narrowly downward as shares turned irreeu- far.
 United States governments made lew changes. Foreign bonds were inclined to ease, and there was heaviness in some of the Latin Americans.
 Most of the small volume of new financing set for this week is again Tn the municipal group.
