to prove that tho assertion made by, Dr. Wright was true. He said that Inc had no personal knowledge of such promise being made, and that he doubted its truth. He urged that 'this ancient history be not brought up in the present hearing. He showed by a map that the street was not needed, as the petitioners claimed, for the ae- communication of the employees of Win chester's shops. He also contended that the people were not so much in favor of the proposition as they had been several years ago, and said that his argument was supported by the small attendance He said that the project had considerable weight at the former hearings because it was favor ed by the owners of the Lawn club grounds at time when tennis seemed to be going out of fashion, but that now the game was coming back into popular favor, the club desired to keep l it's holdings. He said also that the put ting through of the street would cost l the city considerable, because of the steep grade between Whitney avenue ! and Orange street at this point.
 Mr. Crampton replied to the conten- tions of MT. Watrous that the people were just as much and more in favor, I but they had become tired of attend- ling hearings which brought them no re- l lief He also said that the city eng5n- ger had told him that the benefits and damages in the opening of the street would be about equal, and thus be no expense to the city.
 D. A. Blakeslee appeared before the boar5 and urged the hardening of Dwight street, between Chapel and Oak streets. He was supported by F l.. Perry and J. J. Fitzgerald. who de- scribed the terrible conditions existing in tine street.

WOLVERINES
AS CASTOFFS
Big Nine Will Disown Mich
gan If It Aflliates With
Eastern Athletes.
BLACK LIST AWAITS
Faculty on Right Side of Fence, But
Student Body is Against
Them.

Michigan will be a CASTOR so far
as every member of the big nine" is
concerned II it decides to withdraw
from the conference group and afiIi-
ate with the eastern college athletic
world. according to a statement made
yesterday by one of the leading mem
bers of the big nine" board
Not a team Of the group Will meet
the Wolverines either in football, track,
baseball, or in any branch in sport, in
Guiding even tennis and golf. The bars
will be put up for further competition
with the wearers OF the maize and blue
by the leading teams of the west.
Michigan has come to the parting
Of the ways" said the official last
night. Either it must remain with US
or must sever relations with US in
every branch of sport The colleges of
the group are exceedingly wrathful at
the contemplated action of the Mich
igan board, and statements have been
made by officials OF every college of
the organization that the Wolverines
will have to go on the blacklist.
Would Eliminate Michigan.
Minnesota. Chicago and Wisconsin,
not to mention Purdue, Illinois and
Iowa under no circumstances Will
consider the slightest proposal from
Michigan If 1t withdraws. Minnesota
and Wisconsin even now are none too
anxious TO meet the Wolverines and
naturally they would not hesitate to
eliminate Michigan from every sched-
ule.
There would be few colleges wor-
thy of Michigan's talent left in the
arena if it withdraws. Ohio State,
Vanderbilt Oberlin. Case. Albion, Be
lott, Rose Polytechnic, and few other
lesser lights would be the only posi-
BILE attractions. It is possible also that
some Of these would not meet Mich
igan on account Of the immense dis
advantage against which they would
have to struggle.
"AIiohigan's faculty is on the right
side of the fence, but the students
and the regents, who WELD an immense
influence are arrayed against the pro-
fessors. The fight is bound to be stub
born. and is likely to cause a few res
ignations from the faculty"

LOOKS LIKE AN EVEN BREAK,
When the ODDS Are Figured out
Between MarOOns and IIIini Re
suit shows standoR.

Midway dOpsters are having trouble
figuring out a safe Chicago victory
against the Illini Saturday, although a
satisfactory victory for Captain Rus
sells team can be figured out with a
few points to spare. The margin is,
however, too small to make victory
look sure
May is considered the sprint. par
ticularly as the distance at the state
gymnasium is only thirty-five yards.
The maroons are used to a longer dash.
Barker and Henneberry are looked to
for four points for the maroons. The
high hurdles are generally conceded to
Steffen, and as Chicago has no other
good man since McAvoy is out second
and third will go to Coach Gilrs men
practically by default.
The quarter mile looks good to the
Maroons who Will probably get first
and second with Quigley and Barker.
Quigley looks good for q first place
In the high jump and is expected to
be in form for six feet. The pole
vault will be the same old contest it
was last year when Iddings of Chi
cage fought it out with Norris and
Greer in a long battle and finally lost.
But Iddings is given a shade of ad-
vantage this year being in the pink
of condition as he is while Norris will
go in the meet with hardly two weeks
practice. Figuring this way it looks
as though the Maroons will just about
get an even break.

Halvorsen won the quarter mile in

SPORTING BRIEFS.

New Orleans. Feb. 4.-The third per-
iod Of racing at City Park begins to-
day. Present indications are that the
bad luck in the way of inclement
weather and unsatisfactory track con-
ditions, which have marked the sport

A drizzling rain set in early yesterday
morning, and the weather man predicts
unsettled weather for the next week.
The holiday crowds are already be-
ginning to arrive and the hotels are
filing up with northerners who are
getting away from the cold weather
above the Mason and Dixon line, and
who expect to take part in the Mardi
Gras festivities.
The weeks stake feature at City
Park is the Heaslip cup, at two miles.
Among the entries are some of the
best horses in training in New Or
leans. and a good-sized field is sure
to go to the post. The stake has $1,000
added.
