LEADS YALE TOSSERS
Was Elected Unanimously Captain
For Next Season at a Meet
ing Held Yesterday
Further honors came to Edward J.
Stackpole, Jr., of Harrlsburg, yester
day afternoon when he was made the
unanimous choice for captain of the
Yale University basketball team' for
next year.
Stackpole's work at forward during
the Intercollegiate season which closed •
last week, was a big factor in giving
the Yale team a better standing in
basketball than has been recorded in
several years.
The Intercollegiate Basketball Lea
gue may be fairly said to have had its
most successful year during the sea
son Just closed, according to Ralph
Morgan, secretary. For although the
race ended In an unsatisfactory tie for
first place between Cornell and Co
lumbia, nevertheless the season pro
duced more high-class basketball and
awakened more general public Interest
than ever before.
The league produced three first
class teams in Cornell, Columbia and
Yale, all of which were in the race
until the very last games of the sched
ule, while Princeton, Pennsylvania and
Dartmouth played winning ball In
streaks.
The season was particularly satis
factory in that Yale made a genuine
"come back" as a real factor in lea
gue basketball. The Blue team just
missed winning out or at least making
it a three-cornered tie.
The best part of i ale's return to
form is that It looks to be permanent.
Of the regular players who finished
the season for Yale only Swihart and
I Smith will be graduated, leaving,
Stackpole, Arnold and Wilson as a
strong nucleus for the 1915 team, to
say nothing of the new material that
may be developed.
Central High Game
Will Close Season
Central high will close the basket
ball season with Steelton high as op
ponents at Chestnut street auditorium
to-morrow night. Steelton high de
feated Tech two weeks ago and has
been playing a fast game, so Central
evidently will have to put up a hard
fight.
Steelton won from Central three
weeks ago, and winning the game to
morrow night will claim the local
scholastic championship. In the event
of Central winning, another game will
have to be played on a neutral floor.
The game starts at 8 o'clock. Steelton

SMITH DISCUSSES
818 STITIITE
Notes the Centennial of the State
Banking System Law and the
Federal Acts
William H. Smith, State banking
commissioner, shows in the annual
report of his department to Governor
John K. Tener that just a century af
ter Pennsylvania enacted Its first
banking law the banking department
of the State has supervision over 498
banks and trust companies and 105
banking houses. In this number are
included 292 trust companies and 172
State banks. »•
The commissioner points out in his
report that in 1814 the legislature
passed the first banking law over the
veto of Governor Simon Snyder and
in the last year the financial institu
tions going under the department for
the tlrst time showed an aggregate
capital of $3,495,000.
Tho commissioner shows that it
cost $91,229.02 to operate his depart
ment, but that it earned $59,020.05 as
fees for examinations, of which $48,-
257.21 came from trust companies
alone. There were 2,236 examinations
made, the examiners travelling out
side of the cities 146,359 miles. The
examinations do not include investiga
tions of complaints.
After reviewing the history of State
banking supervision the commissioner
says:
"And now in 1914, one hundred
years from the date of the origin of
the first general banking system in
Pennsylvania, which had to meet the
fire of several legislatures, and fifty
years after the time when all of the
banks created under State legislation
were forced under national supervis
ion l'or their own protection in the
circulation of notes, the institutions of
our Commonwealth, Incorporated
thereafter and not under the banking
laws of the State but under its general
corporate provisions, are invited to be
come members of a new national sys
tem, the methods of whose operations
have not as yet been systematically ar
ranged."
It is intimated that this may be the
subject of later recommendation.
Mr. Smith says he thinks that the
next legislature will untie the hands
of the department in regard to the
private banking act enforcement and
bring all such institutions under con
trol of the State. The private bank
act has been upheld in three county
courts and he says:
| "Owing to the failures which have
occurred during the year among those
who are not under the supervision of
the department, there has been an ad
ditional public interest created and
it is apparent that this interest at the
next session of the legislature will be
sufficient to cause the passage of leg
islation that will untie the hands of
the department in the prosecution of
its work."
The report regrets the defeat of the
receivership bill last session.
LINCOLN ON THE TARIFF
"I do not know much about the tariff,
but I know this much, when we buy
manufactured goods abroad we get the
goods and the foreigner gets the money.
When we buy the manufactured goods
at home we get both the goods and the
money."—Abraham Lincoln.
