STAGGERING BLOW
DEALT FOOTBALL
FACULTY COMMITTEE OF "BlG
NINE" ACTS
Radical Changes Are Recommended.
Each University May Play but
Five intercollegiate Games
During Season
BY Associated Press.

By Associated Press.
CHICAGO, Jan. 2O.-College football
was dealt a staggering blow by the
representatives Of the faculties of the
Big Nine" western colleges, who at
the conclusion of two days conference
recommended many changes in the
conduct of football and other sports.
The aim Of the professors apparently
Is to curb as far as possible all ten
dencies toward professionalism In the
different universities, and the various
recommendation announced after the
meeting adjourned have this idea up
permost.
1t was recommended that the game of
football as played at present be abol-
ished as an Intercollegiate and collegi-
ate sport in the conference colleges:
that the American football rules COM
mittee make such notifications of the
playing rules as will free the game
from brutality and unnecessary dan
ger; that in the event such alterations
are not sufficient, the conference will
delegate committee to draw up rules
of it's own and that If a satisfactory
game can thus be established the
recommendations today shall apply to
its conduct and management.
The money end of football was
strongly condemned in the set of reso-
lutions, and in the future the faculty
Will have charge of the gate receipts.
One of the new rules compels the foot
ball players to have as many recita-
tons during the football season as at
any other time OF the year. and at the
end of the school year he must be able
to show a clean record to be eligible for
the team during the next playing
season.
Any man who has received his
achelor degree or other academic de-
gree will not be eligible to play on Il
football team, no matter by what in
stitution that degree has been con-
ferred.
In the future the coach of any team
belonging to the Big Nine" colleges
must be a member of the faculty; a
purely professional paid coach is not
to be employed. Among the other
recommendations were the following:
The number Of intercollegiate games
played by each university team shall
be limited to five.
The admission to all athletic meets
shall be limited to SO cents for
students.
No training table shall be main
tanned for the athletes. That no one
may play for more than three years
in the aggregate in any intercollegi-
ate sport and that this participation
be confined to undergraduates.
That no team consisting in whole
or in part Of college students shall
play with high schools, academies or
independent professional schools
That it Is recommended to the COL
lege conference that it's rule which
allows the first three games of the
season to be uncounted in participa-
ton be eliminated.
That freshmen teams and second
elevens shall play only with teams
from their own institutions.

SELLS CONFEDERATE BILLS
Detectives Unable to Locate Woman
Against Whom Complaints
Are Made

Who is the mysterious woman living
near 624 South Broadway that has sue
cessfully evaded detection by police de-
tectives for forty-eight hours and still
continues to sell confederate bank bills?
Nearly n half dozen detectives attempt
ed to solve the problem last evening.
BY the arrest of two young men Fri
day the officers thought that they had
secured the men that have been worry
ing Los Angeles detectives and secret
service officers for many weeks by dis
POSING Of "Planters' bank bills. A clean
confession WAS made by the young men
and it was soon discovered by the Of
ficers that they have had no part in
the affair.
The officers have experienced consid-
cradle trouble with crooks passing
Planters bills. In nearly every case
the officers have caught the criminals
but they have been unable to find
where the crooks secured their fake
bills.
1t is understood that the officers have
secured a confession to the effect that
the mysterious woman sells the bills
for fifteen cents and instructs those
that buy them not TO tell where they
secured them and then shows the pur-
chaser how to pass the bills and how
to make them look like good bank notes.

Battling Nelson says that Aurelio
Herrera is the hardest man Of all the
lightweights whom he may have to
meet. Recently he gave expression
to the opinion which he has OF the
Mcxican's ability. when It comes to
whipping them over he's the fastest
thing ever see. Tommy Ryan Is a
flash, but Herrera goes him one better
yet. When the Mexican whips 'er over

SUTTON, W. Va, July s1-A
story of crime comes from Lyydale,
a village in Clay county, near the
Braxton county border. The re-
mains of Russell Perry, a lumber
grader in tie employ Of the G. L.
Ritter Lumber Company, on Big
Buffalo creek, were picked upby the
section crew at Jessica, a lumber
camp, three miles from Iyydale- A
freight train had run over The mans
body, and although it was terribly
mangled, marks Of foul play were
plainly seen, a bullet hole being
found below one eye, while his
throat had been cut from ear to
ear, apparently with a pocket knife
or some such instrument.
Justice w. P. Hamrick, Of Clay,
quickly summoned a jury for an in
quest and sufficient evidence was pro-
cured to jail three young men,
brothers, named Dicley, who had
been drinking with Perry, while two
other men are strongly suspected OF
completely in the crime.
Evidence is said to have been
given the inquest to the effect that
Perry was beaten almost into IN
sensibility by his companions, after
which he was shot, then held and bis
throat cut. The body was then
placed on the railroad track. Perry
was Known to have had several hun
dred dollars on his person, OF which
he was robbed. The remains were
shipped to Farmer, KY, said to be !
the dead mans home. A thorough
investigation is being made. The
three Dickey boys are cousins OF
Sarah Ann Legg, who was sentenced
TO be hanged by the circuit court
of Clay county at the last July term
for the murder Of her husband, but
who has since obtained new trial,
which is now pending.
