He also said that a game could be played with such sn object. Judge Abbott said that he had played baseball and umpired base ball games forty years, and that an authorised game could not be played with a tape-covered ball. Stark thereupon requested that he be al lowed to bring In professional au thority to decide whether the tapo cover made any difference In the Identity of a baseball.

Belgian Societies Sing. A feature of the ceremonies to-day was the singing of the Belgian Choral Societies. They were arranged In groups here and there, and when one ceased another would begin. They accompanied those of the old (ireek open air theatres, accommodating thousands of spectators standing. The tracks are the ordinary cinder paths, while the Inside arena, where will be held the field events. Is of well kept turf. The running track, oval, of course, is a fraction under 390 metres to a lap the bands In rendering "La Braban- I There is a straightaway, along one side conne." the national anthem and It more resembled the rolling of musical thun der than anything else.

Duo to the fact that a nasty rain squall swept over Gravesend Hay Juat prior to the setting of the oourae alg nals, the smallest fleet of the year raced in the annual regatta of the (kavesend liny Yacht Club yeatorday. Only nine yi his came to the starting line, and they wire sent away by the regatta committee., mnde up of Commodore H. Hotlaimr and Richard Rummell, during the heaviest part of the squall over the usual lower bay Inside course. Fortunately, the rain did not last for lonjr. I'nfortunatcly, It killed most of the wind, nnd it cannot be ,aid that the yachts had a very spirited regatta. The most Interesting fight was In the new Victory class. Again the winner was Nleupcrt, tho property of young Leymnn Brown. Nieuport defeated Dr. C. I Atkinson's Cantlgny by 17 seconds over a 7.3 mile course made up of tivo reaches and a stiff beat home. Although O. Hansen's Ethel was the first yacht to finish In the second divi sion of the handicap class, the winner on corrected time was It Carey'g Mavourneen. The smaller boat gained her advantage In the first round by standing out In the channel nnd obtain ing the advantage of .t strong ebb tide. Although idie was passed on the second round, she more than jiaved her time on the larger craft. The largest fleet of the day raced In the third division of the handicap class. On both actual and corrected time the winner was Commodore Hollamer'B Bug II, The wind was light and from the s nth throughout. Nvftr was it a really good sailing breeze. As usual the start and finish were off the Atlantic Tacht ( lub at Sea Gate. The course took the craft to Bensonhurst, Fort Hamilton nnd home. It was sailed twice by all the yachts but the small handicap boats. The summary : Victory class Start 3:15. Course, 7.3 miles. Finish. II. M.S.
