MAY PROHIBIT SOLICITING.
Big Athletic Conference May Try to
Stop Bad Practice Amono COLLEGES.

stop BAD Practice Among Colleges.
Iowa City, Nov. 26.-George r. Bur-
nett. chairman of the athletic board OF
control of the State University, left
Iowa City for Chicago last evening to
witness the Thanksgiving football
games there. and to be present AT the
conference of the delegates from the
several conference universities.
The colonel, when interviewed as to
the probable action of this meeting, of
the conference representatives, said
that there would in all probability be
several measures proposed to the con-
ference. all of which will look toward
yersities.
There will be an attempt made to
prevent the practice now in vogue in
some of the universities of soliciting
athletes while yet in high schools. This
has been done from year to year at
Michigan and it is reported that Chi
cago has not been adverse to the prac-
tice. A second amendment will provide
that the migrant rule shall apply to
graduate students as we'll as to under
graduates. This means that man
graduating from one of the colleges
or universities of recognized standing
Will not be permitted to play on team
from one of the conference universities
until his second year in residence. a
third amendment may be introduced
to prevent men from playing on con-
ference teams until they can present a
high school diploma or its equivalent.
This will cut out men from the pre-
pstratory departments and will prevent
the Fastening of high school men into
the universities before they have COM
pleted their high school work.
With reference to next years srhe-
dule Colonel Burnett said that the Min
nesota game would probably be play
ed on Iowa field next year and that an
effort would be made to arrange for
a Thanksgiving game with Illinois at
Rock Island on Thanksgiving day. Chi
cago or Northwestern universities may
also find place on the Iowa schedule
another year. Coach ]. G. Chalmers
ana Manager H. E. Spangler will go
to Chicago direct from st. Louis after
the Iowa game with Washington uni
yersity. The conference is called to
meet at the Chicago Beach hotel on

AMERICA SCORES POINT IN
ALASKA BOUNDARY CASE.
Russia's Interpretation of Disputed
Clause Not Questioned Until
Ten Years Ago.

Washington. May 5.-The strongest point
in the American case In the Alaskan boun-
Diary dispute. which was recently delivered
to the British Ambassador, Is the commu-
~nication Of the Russian Ambassador to the
British King, when he delivered the ex-
change Of ratiications of the Russo-Ang!o
treaty in 1895.
1t is a part of the record of the Amer
lean case that the Ambassador was in
s%tructed by the Russian Government to in
form the King that the Interpretation
which the Russians placed on the treaty
was that the clause relating to ten marine
leagues, meant that the distance OF the
boundary from the sea should not be less
than ten marine leagues.
1t is shown by q report of the Ambassa-
dor that he delivered this instruction to the
King. and that the contention OF Russia at
that time was not disputed until ten years
ago.
The fact that there was no contention
over the boundary. and that this interpre-
tation of Russia was communicated to the
British Government. is believed by the
American Consul to make a strong legal
point in favor of the American claim
