First objection to the New Chain
less Wheel.

A lullaby with beveled gear-a sort of
neutrality-suspicious. a massage-these things
are awaiting the pedal pushers.
At least that is what one of the oldest
wheelmen in Chicago said recently to the
Times Herald.
Somebody had asked: How about the SO
chainlesS2"
The answer came: Il can't ride them. They
make the feet and legs numb-not a soothing
process, but irritating one
The pUt-me-to-sleep theory was spread be-
saddle about much as the average wheel
man in the city.
Il have felt the rumbness, he explained.
Tn mcshing Of the gears gives rise to
steady, continuous vibration. which is com
municated through the crank hangers to the
pedals, and thus to the feet. This incessant
pulsatCn due to the teeth of the meshsd
gears coming together. has the effect of
massage. In time this results in numbness.
VIII numb your hand or the part of your body
on which the blows fall. OF course, the vi
brations are so slight that they are only APP
preciated after a ride.
This, too is demonstrated by the state
ment that If the is pressed against any
part of the frame and the rear wheel is spun
around, the 'chuckle' of the gears is plainly
evident. The sensations are defined being
similar to those impaired to the hands after
a hard ride, due TO the vibrations in the
handle bars. To modify this effect the hick-
some time ago."
On the other hand the chanless wheels
have broad-ehested rooters who can find
fault with the SO product. The lame, halt
and paralytic possibilities are brushed away
by beveledgear adjectives.

NEW RULES At THE I.
Athletic Association Takes steps for
NneHeh Ehnn.-es.


The result OF the recent organization of
the Alumni association is already felt in
athletic circles 1t the state university. A
meeting Of students and a committee from
the alumni association has been held and the
outline Of a new constitution prepared. This
will be published in the Ariel next week and
acted upon at the annual meeting of the ath-
letlc association IN January
The most striking feature it presents is the
transformation of the manager. He is made
the agent Of the board Of control. which IS
the directing force. 1t handles the money,
directs the athletic policy Of the institution,
for the time has come when there is recog-
nized need Of a policy. and finally selects such
managers for the different departments as it
gees tit Every provision is made for
business-Ike conduct of affairs.

offers a contrast TO the present set of articles,
and some OF the graduates are disposed TO
dwell upon this point as Of greater Importance
than any other one change proposed. Mem
beTship III the association is thrown wide

Nege witch, worth having at all, is worth
at least what is asked. The new consti-
tuition holds the view that restricted mem
bershtp IS obstructive to the expression and
growth Of college spirit. 1t therefore throws
down the bars and declares the association
an institution OF the university public which
every man attending the college should be
interested in. and in the meetings of which
he should have a right to express his opinions
whether he has money or not.

student members to be elected by the as
