the surgeon general. under the law. has
to be an officer of the service. AS the law
stands. the appointments to the service
are made after a medical examination be
fore a hoard OF officers. much as in the
case of medical officers in the navy. The
appointment is made by the President
and confirmed by the Senate after the
applicant has passed his examination.
He serves then for a series of years as
assistant surgeon, passed assistant sur
geon and finally as surgeon. From this
grade the surgeon general is selected.
The talk of DR.. Wiley for the position
probably originated In the suggestion
made some time ago for the transfer of
the pure food work from the Department
of Agriculture to the marine hospital
service. 1t is known that the Secretary
of Agriculture favors this transfer and
that he has recommended it In his forth
coming report to the President. Dr.
Wiley is now out Of town. 1t is known
however. that he would consider the po-
sition with the fairly immediate prospect
of cabinet position attached to 1T. but
he would not relish simply having his bu-
reau transferred to the marine hospital
service.
1t is probable that the selection OF a
successor to Gen. Wyman will be made
within a short time.

HAS SUCCESSFUL SEASON.
Tome Institute Ends Year With Good
Record,

A very successful foot ball season was
closed last Saturday, when SWarthmore
Prep Cancelled the Tome game on account
of a muddy field. The cancellation OF
the game was a great disappointment TO
the coaches and the team, as every man
was in the best of condition and the team
was working together better than at any
time during the year. OF the six games
played Tome won four and lost two, Per-
kiomen Seminary, although very heavy
team, was easily defeated, but gave the
team just the right kind of drill at the
beeinning OF the season. Western High
School of Washington was next on the
schedule and proved to be one or the
easiest of the. year. This was followed by
Atlantic City High School. which was
a fierce fight but was Tones game all
the way. The next game was with Law
renceville, and would have ended In
scoreless tie but for an unfortunate rum
bic which Lawrenceville took advantage
of and scored the only points of the
game A number of men were injured
in this game so they were not aoie 10
get into the lineup AGAINST Hill, NoVem-
Der II. This was the biggest disappoint-
nent of the year. The game was PLAYED In
Pottstown, Pa, and almost Immediately
after the arrival of the team, which was
tired from the long trip and greatly
handicapped by the loss of its star play
ers. Tome was unable to stop the rusnes
of the Hill backs, and suffered an over
whelming defeat. The next week rome
came back strong and easiy deleateu
Pennington Seminary. Coach Maysers
system of developing the team steadily
through the season is a good one, and
had the Hill game been scheduled later
in the season no doubt 1t would have been
"a different story.
On returning this fall the coaches FOUND
only five of last years team back to bat
tie for the Blue and White on the grid
iron, and it became the task OF coach
Mayser to develop winning team out
of almost entirely green material. The

FOR WYMAN'S PLACE
Speculation as to Who Will Be
Surueon General.
THREE NAMES MENTIONED
Surgeons White, Anderson and Blue
Under Consideration-Some
Talk of DR.. Wiley.

Interest is being manifested in the Sc
lection of successor to DR.. Walter Wy
man as surgeon general OF the public
health and marine hospital service. No
official action has yet been taken looking
to filing the vacancy. but it is understood
that it was informally discussed at the
cabinet meeting today.
AS there is n fair possibility that the
service ultimately will be developed into
a separate department, with a head who
is member of the cabinet, the appoint
ment of a new surgeon general is looked
upon as more important than would be
the case were the position to continue in
definitely as a bureau under the Treasury
Department.

Three Men Discussed.

Three men are being seriously discussed
as possibilities by the officers Of the serv-
ice. They are Surgeon Joseph White, Sur
geon John F. Anderson and Surgeon Ru-
pert Blue. There Is possibility that one
of these will be selected.
All have scientific records. Surgeon
White was in charge of the yellow
fever work in New Orleans in 1905
Surgeon Anderson is now the director
of the hygienic laboratory in Washing
ton and Surgeon Blue is in charge OF
the bubonic plague work in San Fran
cisco. He is a brother of Victor Blue
of the navy, who won fame by his
ieconna ssance in Cuba during the
Spanish war.
All three of these officers are high
class research men, and all OF them
have had experience in executive work.
Dr. Anderson, as head of the hyg1en1c
laboratory, more. possibly. than the
two others. Officers of the service IN
discussing the matter said that the
only objection to selecting any OF the
three for the place would be the mad
visibility of putting a high-class re-
search man in an administrative posi-
