TWELVE MINES
T0.C0MPETE
IN LEAGUE
BY HARRY COSTELLO

Nearly $50 students are partici-
pating in varsity and intramural
athletics at Catholic University
this spring.
Those who worry lest baseball
be on the wane as an attractive
sport for college boys, should note
that 1876 candidates are striving
for positions on c. us IL intra-
mural baseball teams.
Out of a total of 443 students
participating in spring sports at
G. u, all but 81 are involved in
intramural activities. These 81
are busy with spring football
practice.
Concentrate on Intramurals
The Cardinals sharply curtailed
their intercollegiate program
some months ago. with the result
that varsity baseball players are
mixed up with intramural sport,
most of them in baseball. This
fact should materially improve
the caliber of baseball played in
the intramural league.
With the elimination of varsity
baseball, track, tennis and golf,
G. us varsity roll looks rather
slender. However, the material
for excellent varsity teams in
these sports is at c. u. but is
temporarily estopped from show
ing it's wares. No doubt next
spring will find C. U. with her
customary intercollegiate compe-
titions in baseball, track, tennis
and golf.
Next to baseball, track seems
to be the most attractive among
the intramural activities. In this
department GA candidates are
working out. Like c. U. baseball,
c. U. track has a mingling Of
men of intramural and varsity
calibre, thus making this sport
faster than is normal among in
tramural track teams. Indeed, the
same may be said of all c. VS.
intramurals, as varsity tennis and
golf players are now involved in
intramural sport.
Handban Is FavOrite
Handball, one of the finest of
sports for exercise and competi-
ton, is a prime favorite at c. u,
with those who play it. To date
Al Cardinal students have gone
in for handball, in a competitive
sense. Many more are playing
the game for exercise. Were the
number of students so involved
included in these figures, it is
likely that c. U. would have
fully so more in the total number
of students participating in sport
this spring.
Horseshoe pitching, an under
estimated sport from the stand
point of a sport science, has at.
tracted So, tennis (singles and
doubles) A, and golf 26.
Eddie LaFond, Dutch" Berg
mans right bower in the con-
duct of intramural sports at
Brookland,. points with pride to
the fact that competition in
C. us intramural sport program
this spring is probably faster
than in any other university in
the country, mostly due to the
influx of athletes of varsity
Caliber.
April Is Red-Letter Day
April IS is a red-letter day in
C. U. athletics, for on that date
the Cards propose to prove that
intramural sport will attract
spectators. An athletic carnival
involving only Cardinal athletes
will be staged at Brookland.
Incidentally, a half hour of
study of the C. U. varsity foot
ball squad will suffice to con-
vince any sensible person that
the Cardinals are due in 1888
for another sensationally sue
cessful grid season.
c. us football prospects are
brighter this year than they have
been in many years, which is
saying something in view Of
C. us remarkable grid record
these past few years.

Market Observers Believe The Start

Orders Are Filling Up-Market Will Reopen Higher is
 Opinion - Orders to Sell Stock Cancelled = Traders Speculate Upon Possibility of Short
 Squeeze

prices Friday.
 Traders speculated on the possi- bility of a short squeeze. In this connection, it was recalled that in similar instances the stock ex- change has come to the rescue of the shirts by imposing restrictions to prevent wild fluctuations. It was believed authorities, to fore- stall a technical corner on the is- sues in which there is a large snort interest, would set a price at which shorts could settle their commitments.
 Another moot point was the ac- ceptance of scrip in return for stocks when business reopened. Although scrip was circulated in the far west in 1907 and for a brief period in later depression. the east has never handled it. In 1907, clearing house certificates of large denominations were used by banks for interchange of balances.
 Officials would make no state- ment regarding use of scrip in the present uncertainty of its adoption and the methods of it's distribution. However it was believed that ucrip would be acceptable for ordinary transactions if it was used general ly as medium, of exchange.
 During the period the stock exchange is closed, the bootleg" market idea gathered momentum. Several odd-lot dealers, not con- nected with the bank stock and unlisted dealers association, a0ver- tised to buy and sell stock and bonds listed on the New York stock exchange and curb exchange. No definite sales were reported, al- though many quotations were available. Prices listed generally were above the closing prices last Friday.

NEGROES WERE NOT GIVEN FAIR
 TRIAL BEFORE
So Judge Awards Them New Trial and Is o Moves Hearing to An= other City

Scottsboro, Ala, March S.-(UP) The second trial of seven negroes once sentenced to death for an al- legged assault upon two white girls, will be held at Decatur, Ala, thruogh a change of venue granted by Circuit Judge A. E. Hawkins.
 Judge Hawkins refused the de- fense request for trial in Bir- mingham, although George w. Chamlee, Sr. chief of counsel arr gued that the larger city would provide more adequate protection for his clients.
 The United States supreme court, which sent the case back for a new trial upon appeal, had found that the defendants were not given a fair trial because of the prejudice existing in Scottsboro.
 Motions to quash the indictments were overruled. Although the next regular term in Decatur is scheduled for late in June. an agreement may be reached by prosecution and defense for an earlier trial.

ILLINOIS GOV.
 HAS ISSUED NEW PROCLAMATION
It Relates to Bank Situa- ton, Food Prices and Re-Openin g of the Chicago Grain Pits

Chicago, March 8-(UP)-Under a new proclamation by Gov. Henry Horner, Illinois banks will remain closed at least until Friday.
 The governor issued a new pro- clamation directing ''that no bank or Trust company shall be open for the transaction of banking or trust company business prior to March 10, 1933."
 Gov. Horner's original proclama- ton would have expired today and banks would have been required to pay 5 per cent to depositors oil demand.
 Meanwhile the American Bank Note Company was printing scrip for use, if authorized by Secretary of the Treasury Woodin, by the Chicago Clearing House in denom- nations of $1, $5, $10, $20 and $50. Itwas reported that the banks were spending $100,000 to have it printed.
 Howard Sims, manager of the Chicago Clearing house. said after studying the new Horner pro- clamation in conference with other leading bankers, "the governors pronouncement precludes any ac- ton on scrip before Friday"
 Banks said they would furnish credit for shipments of foodstuffs. hospital supplies and public relief. Such credit facilities were author ized by Secretary of the Treasury Woodin.
 Rising commodity prices were expected to be checked by the ex- tension of bank credit for perish able foodstuffs. Meat prices were up 20 per cent over week ago in Chicago markets.
 The Chicago livestock exchanges directors rescinded their order to close and will remain open today.
 Eggs, which sold last week as low as cents, were quoted at 10 cents. Butter made a half-cent advance yesterday.
 A money exchange service, oper- ated under supervision of the fed- eral reserve bank for local mer- bills for smaller ones and silver. reported a drop in the amount of cash hand]sd. Yesterday only $750,000 was brought in, while $1,000,000 was handled Monday.
 Reopening of Chicago's grain pits, the largest trading centers in the world for cereals, awaited con- ferences between Peter B. Carey, president of tn Chicago Board of Trade, and Secretary Woodin in Washington. Trading in cash grain will cease today.

 Bankers Puzzled
 New Haven, Conn, March B. (UP)-Orders from Washington against the use of scrip by banks will change the plans of Connecti- cut bankers who had planned to issue it.
 Orders for millions of dollars worth of the paper had been placed.
 William G. Redfield, president of the New Haven clearing house, said a meeting of bankers would be held here tomorrow to discus the new turn in events.
