HIGHER MORAL TONE
URGED BY TAT I, rs
President Tells Yale Diners
College View of Wild
Oats Wears Off.

President Taft no longer believes that
the time for a young man 10 sew his
wild oats is in college. and he now takes
the stand that the higher the moral tone
Of college life the better for the gradu-
ates
In this connection he explained last
evening 20 the Washington Yale Alumni
Association that the wild oats theory
was commonly held by al graduates
FOR ten years after leaving school. but
that he himself has-outgrown that be-
lief, and is greatly pleased with the
constantly advancing high standard Of
morals at Yale
Incidentally, the President declined 20
take on his shoulders the task ~ In
creasing salaries for the instru tors ~
Yale, although he approved OF the mo- O.
ment. and urged fewer conditions tt-
tached 10 gifts In order to allow such
increases.
Distinguished Men Present

tended the annual dinner OF the asso-
citation. which was held in the Raleigh,
with Huntington Wilson. Assistant Sec
retary of State. as toastmaster. and
Prof. II. &. Emery and Dean Jones as
! the other speakers
The President followed Dean JOles,
and commented freely on the speec.s OF
the dean. who, among other thinSs n
declared that college life AZ Ya:G -1S
cleaner and on higher mora p,aae
than ever before, IN spite Of more luxIrl-
Gus conditions Tor many students. AlsD
he appealed directly TO the President 20
lead the movement for higher salaries
for the faculty.
The older graduates have sometimes
feared IN respect 20 The growth OF Yale,
said the President They wondered
whether the life was the same. and
whether the spirit was the same They
feared that il must have changed undei
I the changed conditions; but have
had good deal Of opportunity 20 know
some thing of the internal life Of Nsll
since ] left there, and I agree with M
dean that those changed conditions have
not changed the spirit that prevails.

THREE YERDICTS
in THIS ACTION
JURY IN POLLOCK JORDAN CASE
WAS TANGLED-TWo vERDlcTs
WERE TURNED DOWN sY
couRT-PLAINTIFF AWARDED
$2.so1.ss AND INTEREST.

Three verdicts were returned by the
jury in the case OF r M. Pollock as
bankruptcy trustee against w. 3. and
w. @. Jordan. OF Minneapolis, tried in
the district court, before the twelve
men followed the instructions OF the
court and returned verdict that
could be placed upon record
4 Although the plaintiff demanded
only $4,000 In the complaint, the
jury's first verdict was for $4,000. IT
apears that the jury was mistaken
about goods returned.
. Further instructions were given by
the court and the jury again retired
and again returned verdict that
would not hold water.
The third time brought better re-
suits, the verdict being $4,000 for
goods and merchandise and S3O1.ss for
book accounts. Interest also goes
with the amounted.
The jury first retired at about $3.50
and 1T was 5 o'clock before their work
was completed.
The action was one where Atty. Pol
lock, as trustee for Messing Bros. &
Co. OF Walum, sued for preference
right to assets of the firm which fall
ed. The procedure of the jury was
unique in the extreme.

YOUNG SPLINTER
SHOWS PROMISE

For years the possibility of any
Splinter ever running 100 yards in
10 Us, unless greatly aided by the
wind on a downgrade, has been the
medium Of long dissertations by scien-
lists, former athletes and athletic crit
les galore. Some few there are who
will admit that 1t can be done, but a
vast majority Of them declare that
9 3-5 is about the limit.
Now appear three men, all OF them
well known to the athletic-loving pub
lie, and a. least two of them in a posi-
tion to give weight to their words who
declare that Princeton university at
this present time, should lower the time
first made by Arthur Duffy.
T. t. Pendleton, of Berkeley Springs.
Va, a freshman at Princeton, is. the
prospective record breaker, and Jim
Mccormick, head coach of the Prince
ton football team last year, and one of
the greatest fullbacks the game has
known; Pop" Lannigan, trainer at the
University of Virginia, and old Bill
Foley, who is in charge of the track
team at the Georgetown university, are
his sponsors. AL Copeland who, up to
last summer coached the tiger team.
also looks upon, PendIeton as one of
the coming champs, but does not go so
far as to predict a record brea king
career for him
Pendleton gave no more than a hint
of what might be expected of him
when, as schoolboy, he ran for the
Episcopal highschool and four times
scooted the century in even time. Fly
ing the same colors he made a record
of % 2-5 seconds for the 220. He has
the ideal build for sprinter, standing
five feet nine in his socks and weigh
ing in the neighborhood of 100 pounds.
Nor does he confine his athletic ac-
Invites to the cinder path. He stars
at either baseball or football, and was
captain of the freshman eleven at
Princeton last fall. He hadn't been on
the team two days before the coaches
opened their eyes and took notice. and
before the season was over they de-
clared him the greatest quarterback
Princeton has had in years.

Iy Cobb Is a Student Of the Game
That's Why He's the King Batter

Tyrus Cobb is the baseball wonder of
the present day. We all know that
the Georgian has no rivals when 1T
comes to the long hits the daring work
from sack to sack, the stolen bases and
the terror he brings to pitchers and
fielders. Still, but little is really known
OF Cobb, in comparison with many
other players of less renown. Despite
his name and fame. the Georgian keeps
to himself more than is usual with
players OF the day. and few people
really understand either Cobb or his
playing style.
1t lie generally believed -Tnainly from
the dash and apparent swagger of his
play that Cobb is a swelI-headed and
intolerab1e sort of pest. inflated, blovi-
atipg, boastful. He isn't He was a
fresh sort Of q boy when he began the
game. but his freshness was not boast
full or mere swell -headedness. The kid
knew he had the goods; he also had
warm temper, and he wouldn't stand
for the bossing that young players gem
orally receive. Cobb the man is
modest, quiet and likeable chap, worth
knowing. worth admiring. and people
who have met him either in Detroit or
Georgia are invariably charmed with
his ways and speech. Once and for all,
get the idea that Cobb is rough. a
swell head and a skate, out of the
mind-he isn't that sort of boy, and
he istwell worth any mans respect and
friendly hand.
Writing Of Tyrus Cobb, a Georgian
who knows him says that Cobb, the
most popular young fellow i'm Augusta,
Is not merely hit miss batter,
whose success has terrorized the pitch
ers; but q student of the game. ''Cobb's
ideas, as applied to the Improvement of
his own skill, are interesting" says his
friend. "He figures that study of the
pitchers viii do better than all the
practice hitting in the world, and the
Improvement of his percentage seems
TO bear him out Each man who goes
against Cobb is made the object of
