Company A, First regiment, qual-
ified for the finals in the relay event
to be run off next Saturday when
their team defeated the representa-
tives of company B, First regiment,
yesterday afternoon in Waterman
gym. The winners ran the half mile
in the good time of 1 minute 42 3-5
seconds. ~
The victor's team consisted of Bar-
ringer, Meese, Ullman, Lamont and
Johnston, while the company B team
was made of Haley, Bodman, Lumby,
Gilman, and Bauer. The company A
team will meet the winners of one of
the other matches to be run off dur-
ing the week in the finals. Their
time yesterday was better than all
but one of the marks made in the
preliminary meet last Saturday. Com-
pany C, Second regiment, ran the re-
lay in 1 minute, 41 4-5 seconds and
it looks as if this record would be a
hard one to better.
TO FLOAT $x,00,000,660
IN THIRD LIBERTY LOAN
That the Third Liberty Loan to be
floated April 6 will probably amount
to not less than five billion dollars, is
the substance of the monthly financial
letter issued by the National City bank
of Chicago. The bonds of this loan
will most likely bear a four per cent
,interest rate.
The establishment of a War Finance
corporation for the purpose of assist-
ing corporations whose activities are
.necessary to the operation of the war,
is now being considered by Congress
in connection with the Third Loan.
,The workings of this body will be un-
der the supervision of the Federal Re-
serve board and will be concerned es-
.pecially with securing capital for nec-
essary war industry.

Play Better on Foreign Courts
The men seem tb play better bask-
etball on foreign courts than on the
one in Waterman gymnasium. This
can, in some measure, be accounted for
by the fact that most of the other
floors are larger than is the one here
and it allows the men more opportun-
ity to use teamwork.
Much improvement has been made
over the game put up in the early
part of the season, excepting in the
battle with Chicago. The dribble has
been learned the past few months
and this, although causing many fouls
through lack of perfection, has great-
ly improved the work of the team on
offense. On the defense the quintet
has always been fairly strong through

EARLY PEACE TALK ABANDONED
BY WALL STREET FINANCIERS
New York, March 4.-Wall street a
week ago imagined that an early peace
,was forthcoming, and the cheerful out-
lookgwas reflected on the stock ex-
change.
Last week the talk disappeared, and
the market has taken a slump. The
complete collapse of Russia is believed
to be the cause of the change.
