SCHOOL BOARD
CONSIDERS ATHLETICS

Chicago, Jan. 2S.--Conferences were
held here by the public school au-

athletics in the high schools shall be
regulated or the more strenuous
sports shall be abolished altogether.
The latter drastic action is aid to be
contemplated, following the death from
heart disease of Arthur Zahn, fifteen,
Wendell Phillips high school lad,
who is believed to be the victim OF
excessive exercise. Zahn dropped
dead as he was circling the running
track at the school practicing for
field meet. The inquest showed
that the boys heart was greatly en-
larged, and that he was in no condi-
ton for strenuous exercise.
There are many children who
should not be permitted to partici-
pate in athletics said DR.. ]. B. Muir
ply today, land all who do so should
be subjected to a rigid physical ex-
animation once a month. Too little
attention is paid to this matter In
Chicago. Many boys are permanently
injured because of over-exercising."

meanor to keep or conduct gambling

LAW SUIT
John DIS New York Church
Threatened with an Ac-

New York. Jan. 27.--The nearrow
escape of the Fifth avenue Baptist
church of this city. which John d.
Rockefeller ettends, from a suit for
$4,000 as the result of difficulties
in the selection of plans for new
$35O,000 edifice, became known to-
day with the publication of state
ment by Edward l.. Marsten, chair
man of the board of church trus-
tees. Several months ago when the
Fifth Avenue church decided upon
the erection of new building the
trustees arranged for a competition
between six firms of architects for
the plans. Eacn firm was to re-
ceive $40O whether his design was
accepted or not and the successful
one was to receive six per cent of
the construction price. Butler and
Rodman's plans were accepted by
the building committee and recon-
mended to the trustees. The Rev.
DR.. Aked, pastor of the church OBJ
jected to the plans because they pro-
vided no study for him and in the
face OF the official recommendation
the trustees awarded the contract to
William Welles Bosworth. Under
the agreement of the competition
Butler and Rodman declared they
could recover $21,000 which would
be due to the successful architects
as their plans were first adopted
under the agreement but after some
difficulty and the agreement of
trustee Marsten to make public the
reason for the change, they con-
sented to drop the matter.
Work upon the new church will
begin In the near future.
