NEW ATHLETIC RULES
To Purify Harvard Sports Go
Into Effect

CAMBRIDGE, Mass, Jan. L. Today
the new athletic rules which are 10 pu
rify Harvard athletics went into full ef-
feet. They are the final product of
many years work by old Harvard
coachers and men who are the leaders
i'll her athletics. The new rules apply
with equal severity to football, base ball
and all track athletics. For years it has
been argued by other colleges that pro-
fessionaliSm creepS into Harvard ath-
leticS, and is let go unmoleSted by the
captains because the ineligible men
are stars. Now the primary pur-
pose of the rules going into eff
feet today is to thoroughly purify all
individuals and team athletics from any
tinge of professionalism. These rules
are drawn up and signed by Bertram q.
Waters and George A. Stewart. and
take effect Jan. l, 1894. In defining the
term amateur, the new rules say no
students shall be allowed to represent
Harvard university in any public ath-
letic contest, either individually or as a
member of any team. whether before or
since entering the university shall have
engaged for money in any athletic COM
petition, whether for a stake or a money
prize or share of the entrance fees or
admission money; or who shall have
taught OIL engaged in any athletic eXer-
else or sport as means of livelihood.
Again. in speaking of bona fide stu
dents, no one shall be allowed to repre-
sent Harvard in any public contest,
either individually or as member of
any athletic team, unless he intends to
be throughout a college year bona fide
member of the university, taking full
years work. A student who is dropped
for neglect of his studies into lower
class shall be debarred taking part
the END of the next academic
year. until he is permitted by the
faculty to rejoin his class. No one
hereafter entering the university who
is not a regular student in the college
or scientific school and no regular
student in either of these departments
who has ever played in an inter-collegi-
ate contest upon class or university
team of any other college shall play
upon Harvard team until he has
resided one academic year at the uni
Versity, and passed the annual eXamina-
lions upon a full years work.
Us the time limit tilere is LnlS reguIa-
ton. No student, whether ne has rep
resented one or more colleges, shall
take part in the intercollegiate contests
for more than four years; and this
period shall begin with the. year in
which as a player upon university
team he first represented any college,
In reckoning these four years, any year
of probation and any year lost to a stu
dent by illness shall be excluded. BY
these rules many Harverd star athletes
will be thrown out of playing the re-
mainder of this year. Especially will
it weaken the baseball team.

new YEARS MERRY SPORT
SKATING, CURLING. BOWLING ANG
BILLIARDS.
DAY GIVEN TO PLEASURES.

Edgerton Rink Devoted to Skat-
ing for RecordS-Ice Poor and
No Records Broken - New
Rules TO Purify the Harvard
Sports-How New Years Was
Enjoyed.
The skating races at Edgerton rink,
under the auspices of the Minnesota
Athletic club, were witnessed by large
crowd, numbering probably fifteen hun
dred to two thousand people. The ice
was not in best of shape on account of
warm weather, and the time made In
the several events was especially good.
The first race was between Charles
Hotf and 0. Olson. This was won by
the former in 1888, the distance being
two miles. Olson fell on the first lap,
thereby practically losing the contest at
the start. as Hoff awas fully his equal.
and Olson could not regain the lost
ground.
The second event was boys race of
a mile, and was won by Oluf johnson.
Time, S:41 2-5. Then followed mile
race between William Martin and
AuSton Lee. Martin had bad fall on
the second round, and this gave Lee an
advantage which won the contest for
him. Lee won by about fifty feet in
3:2l3l. As II. J. Overbye did not APP
pear TO skate against II. d. Smith. his
place was taken by Louis Johnson,
who made a very pretty struggle at one
mile. Smith was too fast for Johnson,
however, and won by about $50 feet, his
time of 3:01 So being the best at the
distance made during the afternoon,
and being better by two seconds than
any previously made by Smith. The
three-mile race between Bird and
Scheibe was hot one. The men Skated
nearly even for two miles, but
Scheibe was in better condition. and
on the last mile gained about 125 feet.
Scheibe won the race, going the three
miles in 9:24$4, which is by far the best
time ever made in this vicinity. and
next best to Johnson's state record.
There were several trials against time
at One-half mile and one mile. Frank
Crawford went half mile in 1:35. with
out pace makers. Ed Pannell covered
the same distance in 1:2S15, and A. D.
Smith then tackled 1t. ana succeeded in
making 1t in l :264, which is within AZ
seconds of the last American record.
j. Davidson then tried a mill, and low
cred his best previous records by about
two seconds, going in 3:l3.
The afternoons sport was about the
best that has ever been seen it St. Paul,
and the large crowd was well pleased.
The races were run off promptly, COM
mencing exactly at 2:30 D. m. The in
tervalS between contests were short.
Fritz Luhr acted as clerk of the
course, and Dave Wallblom as starter.
There were four Jimekeepers for each
event.

no hint as to how he proposes
to stop the fight if Judge Call decides
that glove contests are not illegal in
this state. There was story current
in sporting circles today that the man
ayers of the athletic club had inside
information that the governor would
look to Sheriff Broward. of this county,
TO stop the fight, and if he fails would
suspend him from office. The story is
of piece with others floating around.
The truth is, everything is uncertain,
for nobody knows what Gov. Mitchell
will do. save the governor himself, and
