breach between Biggy and Sweigert,

Ia statement IN explanation of his vote.
In explaining my vote" said Swei-
CERT i would like TO say In justice TO
this commission that I believe there is
graft, much graft, and proper way 10

with the procedure that takes off seven
stars and places in humiliation seven
men simply upon the word OF this foul
gNvretch Samuelson. ! therefore vote
aye"
While Sweigert was delivering his
with arms folded, glowering at the
speaker The vote OF the commission
was then polled. Leggett and Cutler
voting for the adoption of the resolu-
tion. Kel. who had participated IN
the invest cation. did not vote.
BTGGY SCORES SWEIGERT
When the poll had been finished
Biggy jumped to his feet. Facing
Sweigert, he hurled forth a singing
denunciation, drawing out the words
with cutting distinetness. He said:
Il wish 10 state that prior TO any
act in so far as the chief Of police is
concerned a statement OF the evi-
oence was presented to the honorable
board OF police commissioners and
Commissioner Sweigert voted in favor
OF preferring the charges. / want to
state further that Commissioner Swei-
CERT said that he believed not only the
two men but all the men in that sec
tion were guilty OF graft"

were PatrOlmen Jacob l. Mel
son. George Holmes. George Har-
rigan James Cavanaugh and Ser
geants J. J. Donovan and An
tone Northing. Patrolman Dave Sulli-

Rat proofing OF warehouses was dis
cussed at a meeting held yesterday by
the executive body of the citizens,
health committee at the chamber of
of many local firms were present on
invitation. Just what was needed to
make these warehouses rat proof was
explained to those present by federal
inspectors.
Great interest was manifested by the
warehouse men, who promised to rem
der every possible assistance to the
federal health authorities. The re-
ports of the latter showed that condi-
tions at the warehouses as a whole
were better than had been believed.
FIND DIRTY SCHOOLS
Unwashed windows and floors in 15
schools, said to be the result of poor
janitor service, has been called to the
attention of the citizens health COM
mittee by the wonen's sanitation COM
n1ittee on schools, and steps to correct
these faults will be taken at once The
Morgan" system of ventilation at the
Bernal school is reported out of order
by the committee. The services of a
nurse are said to be needed at the Bernal
and Holly Park schools in Cortland
avenue at Jefferson. Other schools In
the Mission district are also said to be
in need of visiting nurse.
Contrary to the opinion of many San
.franciscans that the publicity result
ing from the work of the citizens
health committee would damage the
city, press reports from the east indi-
cate that the course of the health COM
mittee has strengthened outside faith
instead of weakening it as was pre-
dicted by many.
LABOR BUREAU ACTIVE

GERS of the labor bureau to compel
merchants who employ both men and
women to improve sanitary conditions

bureau declares that many fragrant vio-

Yale's Costly Mistake.

Still another error by Yale in the second
half occurred after an onsde kick by Coy
had been caught by Goebel on Harvard's
1S-yard line. Coy gained 3 yards more In
one OF his characteristic plunges, after
which Johnson tried another forward
pass. but the ball was muffed by Haines
and Harvard player fell on it one yard
from the goal line. These mistakes Yale
men said after the game. were directly
responsible for the defeat of the New
Haven eleven. but excuses do no good.
the fact is that Harvard won wonder
full victory.
Yale began the game with a ripping.

that the Crimson players showed that
they were made of the right stuff. for
they ced in gallant style and Yale lost
the ball on downs. Then it was that Har-
