Special to The Herald.
BERKELEY. July 27.-Word has been passed
around here today that Ollie Snedgar, the once
famous halfback of the university and now
acting as graduate manager of athletics at the
university is to formulate a football team of
stars to play the old game this fall, with the
probability Of great match the campus
here on Thanksgiving day as a fitting close
to a season that will prove a delight to the
football men of the undergraduate world.
Reginald Kitrelle. well known end on the '05
team, is interested in the move and already
has secured a number of stars TO take up the
matter.
Snedgar. when seen at his home this even
ing regards the matter, stated he had no
part in originating the scheme, and gave the
glory of the formation of such a team of old
California stars to Kitrelle, who is now en-
gagged in the real estate business in Oakland.
Snedigar said: LAS graduate manager of
athletics at the university, / shall take no
active part in the formation of such team.

Ktrelle has been assured the services Of
Speedy Mead, 'Wrec" Wombe, Pete Kars-
lerg and Percy Hall, and stated that fast
team will be secured He looks for little
trouble in picking up an all-Caifornia varsity
team that will be able to clean ZIP with any
of the teams in the state Matches will prob
ably be arranged with the Multnomah, Reli-
aEce and Olympic teams.

Special to The Herald
KANSAS CITY, July 27.-The horse
shoe pitching proposition has finally ar
rived at that stage where some one will
have to put up or shut up. On July 20
and 80 the experts from Kansas, Missouri
and Iowa will compete at Convention
hall for the interstate honors, and any
team can enter and no questions asked
as to previous conditions of servitude.
For months all the cities in the states
mentioned have been sending out re-
ports of their champions until an inter-
state contest could no longer be put off,
and right now it looks as If there would
be at least 100 team entries in the two
days carnival at the big hall. An en-
trance fee of 81 per team will be charged,
so per cent of the amount to be award
ed the winners of the contest in cash and
the other so per cent to be spent for
medals for the teams making creditable
showings, and any team desiring to enter
should address Manager Shouse. Con-
vention hall, Kansas City, Mo.
1t looks as if great deal of
money would change hands on the con-
test. Every town appears to be ready to
back their men with little loose change
and the fellows who stand around ready
to bet on which fly flies { -st will be In
on it for the fun of the speculation.
Right now the Excelsior Springs team,
headed by T. j. Oran, appears to be the
favorite with the local dopesters, but
they will have no walkaway, as several
/ crack teams have entered from various
! towns in the three states. 1t is probable
that the entry list will close at noon on
July 2S and the teams desiring to enter
should see that their names are in by
| that date.

Special to The Herald.
NEW YORK, July 2Z-Sweeping changes
in the Amateur Athletic union rules will
be the order of things at the annual
meeting of that body in November.
Something must be done, say those high
G er up or the sport is going to fade away
like June rose.
From the very best authority II hoe
been learned that college athletes going
from college to clubs will be thing Of
the past next year. This is the "one hest
bet" and President James E. Sullivan
will be backed up to a unit in putting
through this new legislation.
Another thing, and of grave import
ance, is the record department. Records
will receive more than the usual atten
ton. The wrangling and questioning
over records has become tiresome of late,
and 1t is going to be stopped by enforc-
ing the A. A. U. laws to the letter.
President Sullivan threw a bomb into
the camp of the record holders yesterday
when he announced that all the records
made recently, with the exception of the
discus record of Martin Sheridan on
June %, are thrown out.
The ones thrown out are as follows:
June 30-Throwing the 56-pound weight
over bar Is feet 21s inches, by Con Walsh
July 4-Throwing the 56-pound weight
for height 10 feet inches, by Con Walsh.
July 4-ThroWing the 16-pound hammer,
173 feet Az inches. by John Flanagan.
July 14-Throwing the 16-pound ham
mer, ITS feet 8 inches, by Matt McGrath
In making this announcement Mr.. Sui
livan said:
Martin Sheridan's record for throwing
the discus, 1876 feet 10 inches. stands. The
others are thrown out. Sheridan lived up
to the rules to the letter. When he made
the record there were A. A. U. officials
present. The discus was packed and
shipped to be weighed We also received
the tape used to measure the toes. There
can be no question of it's genuineness.
Now take the other records. In the
first place, I don't know officially that
there was a record made. BY this 1 mean
1 was never officially notified 1 have
never seen accounts of them in the
papers.
"There were no weights nor tape sent
to my office. No A. A. U. officials re-
ported the matter. Records cannot be
accepted under such conditions.
THE record made by McGrath is sim
ply out of the question! No A. A. U. Of
fetal was present and the hammer was
broken. If these men don't know the
A. A. U. rules they don't deserve a rec
ord.
"At the next meeting of the A. A. U. 1
will make it my business to see that
rule is framed SO that at every athletic
meet of Importance a regulation scale
will be on the field and the weights be
weighed. Also that two A. A. U. officials
be present to watch the weight events.
one to be where the weight falls and the
other to judge fouls.
This will settle all disputes and make
all games a pleasure to witness"

Fascinated by the smooth gliding of
rubber tired bright bicycles. four youths
were drawn from the straight and mar
row path to the way that leads to the
police station.
Two of the boys had no wheels, so they
appropriated those of others. The other
two lads had wheels of their own, but
essayed to ride upon the surface of
municipal sidewalk.
All four were arraigned before Police
Justice Rose yesterday. Two were
charged with petty larceny and two with
violating the sidewalk ordinance.
Adrie Kastanigan and Adrian Temple
were accused of the thefts.
Adrie was hardly old enough to know
what robbery meant, but he did know
that he took the wheel. The arresting of
ficer said that he had talked sassy
when he was caught.
I'm going to send you to the deten-
ton home, where you may learn some
thing about politeness," said the bench.
Then the little fellow cried and said he
was sorry for using a defiant tone to the
mister" who sat in the big chair.
Adrian Temple was arraigned on the
same charge.

Peace Husselton.

why, no; we're old enough to get
married without one of them licenses.

the bride-to-be.
The justice explained that he could
not marry them without license. NO
matter how old they were. and advised
them to either go to Youngstown on
back to Armstrong.
They went back home, declaring that
the justice was wrong about it.
"Old folks like us don't need no
license" they said in unison as they
left the Justices office.
James, who is very we'll to do, said he
would consult an attorney concerning
Husselton's strange demand"

THE ElLLS OF Japan.
They Grind on Day and Night VITA,

They Grind on Day and Niaht Wit,
No Regard For Sunday.
In Japan Sunday is not regarded, and
the mills do not stop for the day. The
majority OF the mills have two holt
days. the LIST and the 18th. In many
mills the engine starts at 6 O'Clock the
morning OF the I'd and runs continu-
ously until O'Clock the morning OF the
10Th, then starts at o'clock the morn,
ing OF the 10th and runs continuously
until 6 O'Clock the morning of the LIST.
This is as near perpetual motion as
men and machines can stand. No stop
Is made for dinner. the hands taking
thirty minutes for dinner in rotation
and spare hands taking the place OF
each hand. Each operative works from
q o'clock TO @ O'Clock, with thirty min
utes for dinner. and the night shift
comes on Mt g o'clock. Thirteen to six
teen twelve-hour days on a stretch
necessarily make the hands slower
and less efficient. Though they do not
observe the Lords rest day, a good
number OF mills have by experience
come to see the material good that
comes from having one day in seven
for rest, and one OF the largest groups
OF mills observes the 4th, 18th, 18th and
9th OF each month, but do not, as GUS
tomary with us, allow n third or faIf
OF the previous day for rest also. These
four rest days are utilized by the man.
agement to overhaul and clean machin-
cry, check up results, instruct green
hands in regard to their duties, etc.
The national holidays. OF which the e
are about ten, are observed by tIls
mills, so that even in the mills making
practice of stopping only two days for
rest the holidays effect stop OF one or
two more days per month.
The hours OF work and the number
OF rest days vary with the locality and
the mill. Each mill has its own sys-
tenn, and. though they work together In
some respects, through the japanese

are very jealous OF each other and keen

projects cannot copy from old, but have

OF this occurred in my visit, on sue
cessive days, to two mills not over if
ty miles apart. The superintendent Of
one said a good many erroneous arti-

always had at least four rest days a
month. l was IN the other mill from
