The National league concluded its separate sessions yesterday by voting to permit a limited number of night games, the first ever playful in the majors. Powel Crosley. Jr., whose Cini.innati Reds are appropriately named, he observed, for the color in which most of the club’s finances are written, led the fight for night, games, hopeful of boosting attendance. Hut it will’be only an experiment in 193.'. The league limited each club to seven home games at night, permits the visiting dub to refuse to play at night and provides a penalty calling for a $15,000 fine and confiscation of gate receipts for each game over the limit of seven. Pittsburgh. New York anti Brooklyn were definitely opposed to going bush league. Philadelphia was lukewarm. St. Ixruis. Chicago. Boston, and Cincinnati thought it a good idea.

There was a minetrel show and after it an exhibit'on of children's school work. A bov was sinking a song when shore was a loud crackling noise. The floor sagged and collapsed. Those n the hall n’uneed down, buried in debris and blinded by dtisf. Lights wnt C'’» An onen fire flickered in a grate in the wall above while gas hissed from broken pines. As the children shrieked for their rarents, all fire engines and ambulances in the dis’riet sped to the building. Civilian passers-by joined police i and firemen who went into the i bal'd’ng. “Women were struggling to reach their children." said Walter Greeg, a stonemason rescuer. "Others had children in the’r «nn«. I saw- two hove who had rrnbbed a window sill as the floor '■olhmsod climb from it and fall to the ground yelling."
