MANUAL MONOGRAM TITLES WON BY FAST SPECIALS
monogram basketball championship at Manual Training high school was won by the Specials In both the major and minor leagues. The Specials ended the series ysaterday by winning two stiff contests Trom the Crescents. 23 to 29, in the major league and 8 to 7 in the minor
league. r
The major game was a nip and tuck battle from start to finish, and could have been called anybody’s game up until the last few seconds. Buddie Gass, of the Crescents, received a sprained ankle during the last half of the game, and as no available substitute could be obtained to take his place, the contest was finished with only four men playing on each team. Although guarded closely, Behrent, of the winners, was a We to score five field goals that were all shot at times when points meant honor for the Special team. Overstreet started the scoring for the Spec tali by caging two field goals right off the reel In the beginning of the game Gass and Bartholomew divided honors in the Crescent scoring, each getting ten
points.
In the minor league the two teams were so evenly matched In every way during the series that It was really, a matter of one point to deride the champion. In the game yesterday the Crescbnts lost by one point, the score being similar to that of the two previous games.
FLOOD DAMAGE INCREASES
TO ABOLISH DAISY CHAIN.
Vgatar Senior Class Decides Contest Has ••coma. Beauty Rush. POUGHKEEPSIE. N\ t., January 18.-1 The Daisy chain, a feature,of Vassar college commencements, will be eliminated nest year and perhapa abolished. The senior class at Vassar has voted to abandon the practice of choosing twenty-four of the prettiest girls In the sophomore class to carry the famous chain. This decision is attributed to the growth of a sentiment among the Vassar student* that the Daisy chain is not In harmony with Vasnar's democratic Ideals arid that the selection of the girls to carry the chain has become a beauty contest. Miss Dorothy Bailey, chairman of the class day committee, announces that the whole sophomore clans will take part In the exercises next June and will carry email garlands of smilex and daisies.

Rain Continues in Southern California —Two Deaths Reported. LOS ANGELES. January 18.-RaJn. which has resulted in the death of two persons and great property damage by floods continued today. Many southern California rivers are out of their banks. Many families have been made homeless by the flood waters which have inundated the lowlands, numerous bridges have been carried away and long stretches of highways have been ruined In nearly every part of southern California. Hteam railroad service is crippled and in a number of instances cities depending on electric Interurban transportation are without service. Telephone and telegraph wires are down and efforts to restore communication have been hampered by the continual downpour. The storm extends Into Arixona and reports from- Phoenix are that warnings had been issued to residents along the Gl'a river, south of that city, to prepare to flee to higher ground. Among the railroad passengers stranded by the storm was the party of Frederick William Vanderbilt, of New York, which was or a train blocked somewhere between here and the Grand Canyon, lieports from Pasadena said that landslides there had caused considerable damage In Brookside park six boxes of dynamite stored by the Pasadena park commission were buried by a large slide. « PRICES NEARLY DOUBLED. Imports of Chemicals, Drugs and Dyes in 1915 About Half Those of 1914. WASHINGTON, January 18—W’ar s reduction of imports of chemicals, drugs and dyefc into the United States and its effect on prices of these materials is shown In customs figures made public today by the department of commerce. While Imports In 1915 dropped to about one-half the 1914 record in quantity, increasing price* kept total values almost
to 1914 figure*.
Prices In most cases Increased in direct ratio to diminished imports. Chemical, drug and dye imports last year were valued at 180,000.000. only about 87,000,000 less than the 1914 valuation. In 1913. however, these imports were put at 1101,000.000. Dye wood Imports in 1915 almost doubled 1914 shipments, despite the British embargo on logwood shipments from Jamaica and British Honduras. These dyes to a large extent replaced artificial dyes formerly obtained from Germany.

At the signing of the recent peace agreement which caused the death of the Federal League and brought order out of chaos in the baseball world, organized baseball exonerated some 304 players and twenty umpires from all blame and restored these men to good standing in
baseball.
This did not bring any of the 304 players and twenty umpires a job for next year, but assured them a chance to obtain work at their chosen profession if they should

Most of the owners of the National and American leagues expressed themselves as willing to purchase and contract for Federal players. There are a few exceptions to this rule, namely: Sohuvler Britton, of the Cardinals: James J. Lannin, of the Red Sox, and Clarke Griffith, of the Senators. Each of these men has said openly that he would not allow anf of the contract Jumpers on his club, which was not meant as disbarment but plaving favorites or prejudices to some extent. There are twelve other clubs, however which seem to be bidding openly for the services of the better known Federal players, among whom are a lot of stars who surely would bolster up weak spots
