being Waged in this country to use
silver as a supplement to gold as a
monetary base, they are, neverthe-
less, interesting. They accuse the
treasury department of buying huge
contracts for the white metal on
weakness caused by conditions it
helped to create. The object, it is
suspected, is to make big profit for
the treasury if and when silver leg
islation is enacted, but the result, it
is maintained, has been to cause
wide fluctuations in the price of the
contracts.
1t is worthy of note that there
has been much of the "Off -again-on-
again Finnigan" interpretations Of
silver developments in Washington
of late. On weakness caused by such
versions brokers have noted heavy
purchases by one special group, par
ticularly of May options. BY a
process of deduction and by reason
of the fact that the purchases have
cleared largely through one large
bank in the financial district, these
brokers have concluded that they
were for the account Of the treasury
department.
A CTIVITIES have not been linn
IA tied to the issuance of SEEM
ingly conflicting statements, either,
it is contended. Gold holdings in
London, so it is charged, have been
sold and the proceeds used to pur-
chase silver. And the equalization
fund has been brought into play,
according to the compliments. to
buy American dollars in Shanghai
in order to depreSS the Shanghai
dollar, which is of silver content
The world price of silver follows
the price of the Shanghai dollar TO
a marked degree, it is explained.
A widely fluctuating market
usually affords excellent opportu-
mites for trading profits if traders
are nimble enough to catch the
swings. But when some one else
holds all the cards, as would the
treasury department if it is buying
silver, as it is alleged to be doing,
the chances of being "YhipsaWed"
are very great. 1t is that condition,
and no doubt also the fact that the
purchase commissions are not being
spread, that is so annoying to the
brokers on the Commodity EX-
change.
TINE silver bloc, of course, is con-
Il cerned because developments
of that sort interfere with its pro-
gram. That part of the bloc who
are interested in the price of the
metal largely because it affects the
returns of the people in the States
they represent are opposed to any
thing which has a depressing in
fluence. The other part of the bloc,
who are not especially concerned
about silver as such. but want an
expansion in currency because of its
inflationary effects, are peeved over
the supposed operations primarily
because they are defiationary in
their effects on all commodities.
1t is estimated in the trade that
100000 ounces of the metal have
been taken by the one source during
the last three weeks. 1t is said that
100000 ounces were bought re-
Gently. No one other than a per-
son acting for the treasury depart
ment would be likely to make such
large purchases. it is contended.
Further confirmation of the source
of the buying is afforded, the trade
believes. by the pride Mr. Morgen-
THAI has manifested over the paper
profits made by the treasury on its
government bond purchases.

The chill and fog of the early

nails deployed to thrill the fans
with a brisk fielding drill, most
Of the crowd was seated.
There were bare stands in the
temporary left field stands, and
the indications were that the
crowd would not be as great as
yesterday when some $4,000 fans
were on hand.
After the scenes Of disorder
that marked the opening of the
first game, delaying the start 20
minutes until holders of reserved
seat tickets could be seated, the
superintendent of police assigned

before the half empty bleachers
and the gang out there cheered
the paid clown and forgot about
the impromptu performers who
stole his stuff yesterday.
There was no welcoming shout
to hail the players. No vote Of
confidence. They came out on
the field, and apparently as far
as the crowd was concerned, they
could have stayed away.
No, not quite. If they'd stayed
away, there'd have been no ball
game.
It was not until Joyner White
slammed what would have been a
triple out to the left centerfield
fence that the crowd really woke
up to the fact that the home boys
were on the field.
Smiles Are Sardonic
The assurances oft repeated
that the Tigers will improve today
brings somewhat sardonic smile
to the faces of baseball men. OF
course, the Tigers will improve.
They can't get worse and escape
the embalmerS.
Even without benefit of wise
cracks or what have you that
Tiger inner defense is far too
good and far too steady as to
continue the antics that marked
their play yesterday. They've had
their baptism of fire now and
they know the task that con-
fronts them.
"Schoolboy" Rowe was the
most grimly determined, silently
confident youth on the Tiger
team. He said before he donned
his uniform that he had slept
well and was not fearful of the
outcome of his greatest test in
baseball.
Rowe Is Confident
The brawny youth who gave
the nation a new catch line by
radioing his sweetheart: "How'm
all dom, Edna, honey?" learned
plenty about the Cardinals yester-
day. He will put it to account
today, he insists.
Rowe's greatest strength is his
low fast ball and when his curve
is breaking down he'll be plenty
tough. He hasn't the experience
Of the young Celt who will op-
pose him, barring changes in
managerial minds at the last
minute.
Rowe took his batting practice
and bounced four drives off the
screen in left field. The crowd
cheered him.

ion, Charlottesville and university
people feel that Virginia stands
an excellent chance of tripping
Navy in Saturdays big game.
It is pointed out by local peo'
pie that Virginia played under
wraps against strong Hampden-
Sydney in last Saturdays initial
game. Under popular Gus Tebell,
it is said, Virginia is a much bet
ter team than the Cavaliers have
been during these past several sea-
sons.
Bring On Berries!
"Bring on your Borries!" seems
to be the password around this
city, which has more than a
little confidence that Virginia
will return winner Of Saturdays
battle of Griffith Stadium.
I am down here to report on
the Virginia team. I have not
yet seen the Cavaliers in action,
but expect to this afternoon, with
the permission of Mr.. James G.
Driver, Virginia's capable direc-
tor of athletic, and Mr.. Gus
Tebell, who learned his football
at tie University Of Wisconsin,
where he was an All7American
end.
No sooner had I arrived this
morning than I was RECALLED by
one of Charlottesville most cap
able downtown coaches with an
interesting story to the effect
that Virginia has a huge surprise
for Navy. Just what constitutes
this surprise deponent sayeth not,
but he had a very knowing look
as he broke the news to me.
Old-Time Team
"This is one Of Virginia's old
time teams" said another down
town coach, as he leaned
against the pillar outside the
popular local drugstore. "This
Virginia team will have far
more fight than any of Vir-
ginia's recent gridirOn outfits.
There will be no Ohio State
debacle reenacted in Griffith
Stadium on Saturday after.
noon. You can bet all the ham
I'm Virginia on that"
OF course, that's a lot Of ham
to bet, and all that, but one gets
the feeling down here that Vir-
ginia must have something to in
still such a winning spirit in the
townspeople, more particularly
the hard-bitten downtown coaches
who know their football.
