The question has been raised
locally as TO whether prospectors

looking them over as mineral
properties. Commissioner Rich
ards when asked for his opinion
ON the matter, stated TO the

LATEST SPORTING
NEWS

The days of blue blood in Harvard
athletics, and especially in football
circles, have come to an end, accord
ing to Myron T. Townsend, sporting
editor of the Boston Traveller, who is
spending the winter on the coast.
And Mr.. Towsend gives assurance
that this innovation has been wrought
by "Bill" Reid, Harvard's chief coach,
who halls from Belmont, Cal.
It will not be necessary to have
the blue blood of aristocratic old New
England families trickling in ones
veins to make the squad or even the
eleven this year.
Reid has sent forth the command
that his team will be one of brains
and ability, players who are equal to
emergencies, rather than roster of
names that reads like New England
blue book.
And as Reid has supreme control of
football at Harvard, his wish in the
matter of players is law.
In former years poor students had
a chance to gain knowledge at Har-
ward, but they had absolutely no show
to make the football squad. This sac
red precinct was reserved for youths
whose families had stood high in dear
old New England for years. It was
considered a sacrilege for working
student to try to get within the inner
gates. The football team was not for
him. The result of this exclusiveness
was that Harvard, for a college of its
pretensiOns, made poor showing.
Its old rival, Yale, practiced an en-.
tirely different system. It was men
rather than ancestry that Murphy,

plant that there was collision be-
tween Foley and the defendant. the
stock was reported unsaleable and
plaintiff was induced to sell to the de.
PENDANT $4,000 shares for $4,000, de-

each of the four S-inch breech-loading
rifles, and but three misses were re-
corded.
