PENN TO REWARD
 GREAT ATHLETES
Win Give New Emblem to Men Who Make Varsity Teams More Than
 One Year

The Board of Directors of the Ath- letic Association of the University Of Pennsylvania yesterday considered a plan to distinguish an athlete of more than a years membership on an ath- lotic team.
 The Varsity ''P'' will be awarded as before, but under the new plan a player who serves for two years on a team will have band, one inch in diameter just above the elbow on the sleeve. Three years service will se- cure two bands, the highest possible honor.
 Jack Keough, whom the football committee recommended as, worthy of a Varsity letter, was anted the same by the committee, and he is now in the class with Livingstone Smith, who was so honored In 1902

Wife Won't Let
 Me, Says Pitcher
National Comm SS;onFines Elmer StricAlett of Brooklyn $1OO
 and Reinsiates Him


 The new woman has made a place for herself in baseball. Pitcher FL mer Stricklett, who refused to report to the Brooklyn team in 1909. and was therefore banished from organized ball, has made a successful plea for reinstatement to good standing on the plea that My wife wouldn't let me" It will cost the twirler $1O0 for lis ten1ng to the feminine lure, but aside from that he stands just as well with everyone in the national pastime- Chaslfe Ebbet's possibly excepted-as he did before he decided to disregard his contract and stay in California.
 In his application for reinstatement Stricklett admitted that he had de- clined to report to the Brooklyn club and also acknowledged the fact that he had played outlaw ball on the Coast. He said. az an excuse for his actions, that his wife insisted that he should not leave California and that he was forced to play ball there as a means of earning food bonnets and other little luxuries for the real head of the family.

Auto Attendance
 Record Is Broken Big Crowd Wits Show in Grand Central Palace and Many
 Sales Made

Attendance records at the new Grand Central Palace show in New York, yesterday. were broken owing to the fact that the crowd of passen- ger ear buyers whose interest was formerly shared with the Garden show thEonged the Palace. The number of sales reported was most gratifying to the exhibitors.
 The number of women in attendance was much greater th63a on previous days and enclosed cars came in for greater attention The different types of closed cars seemed to attract equal interest the Sedan four passenger coupe ce the Rambler being the only one in this exhibit which differs ra- dicaIIy from those models shown by the Regal. Paige-Detroit, Hupp- Yeats Fiat, EArgo and R. c. H. firms.
 The sales of open cars have been unusual as the number of dealers in attendance has been great. At the close of the show last night the Ram bier people reported twenty-one sales, while the Hupmobile, Abbott-De Velie. Paige-Detroit, Imperial, Fiat and Cole firms took many orders.

WONT PLAY
 NEW YORK GIANTS
Upset Big Leaguers' Schedule by Re- fusing to Visit Polo Grounds
 April 6.

For the first time in many years the Yale baseball team will not open the exhibition season on the Polo Grounds. The date was offered to the sons of Eli. as in former years. and a game for Saturday April 6, had been considered as good as booked by the New York club. However, Secretary O'Brien received a telegram yester- day from the Yale manager. saying that April 10 would be preferable as the Yalensians would be in the South on April 6.
 pone the annual Gotham game played havoc with the training schedule ar ranged by Secretary O. 'Brien and Manager McGraw- The Giants had arranged to play in Washington on April and g. in Baltimore on April and 5. Yale on April on the Polo Grounds and Newark on April 8 and g. The Giants. are now without a game for Saturday. April though 1t is probable that the Polo Groun ders will spend that day in Harrisburg. It also Is possible that the Newark gsmes will be cancelled and that the Giants will remain in the South until the beginning of the National league campaign. col

 Preparing To Wed
(special from United Press.)

Toledo, O., Jan. 16-From the little apartment they were preparing for their home when they were married, soon, Miss Daisy Palmer and Joseph Manochio, her fiance, were buried to day. In twin collins, the victims of asphyxiation were borne to the grave and laid to rest, side by side.
 Mystery surrounds the deaths. They were engaged and invitations for their wedding had been issued. Manochio and his prospective bride spent many happy days planning the home they were to occupy. Last Saturday, after saving for months, they bought the complete furnishing for their apart ment.
 Saturday night, they went to- the apartment to hang the pictures and arrange the furniture. NeighboSs who heard them laughing at the4r work thought they were entirely hapPy.

BIG LEAGUE GOSSIP

Bill Sweeney of the Boston Nation als Is a philosopher. He says:
 A player who expects nothing but boosts IS making a. big mistake. He can be sure that he will get the hand when he is delivering the goods, and try never to get sore when I am crit icised, for I know that 1t Is deserved in nearly every ease. If play bad ball I expect criticism. The best way is to pay as little attention as possible to what is said about you, but just go along and deliver the goods as well as you can. It doesn't pay to swell up over a good notice and get sore

Hare was a lineman. a half back, a punter and the captain of Penn. team. He was a real giant. Smith was one of the best linecrack- CTS and never had a superior as de- fensive back.s. Brooke was a star punter, a great runner and a fine a1l- round player, while Bill Hollenback could turn an end with better judg- ment than most of the backs He placed his punts and he possessed the fighting, spirit which makes not only player but an entire team.

COLUMBIA, PENN
 AND TIGERS TO ROW
Three Crews Likely to Meet in Re-
 gatta on Carnegie Lake.

SAIIA oA NaUHcSAc ASaAce
 It is regarded as likely that the Coll umbia Varsity crew will take part iR the proposed regatta with Princeton and Pennsylvania on Carnegie lake next Spring.
 The chief difficulty in arranging the race will be the selection of a suit able date. April would be too early to suit the coaches and on May 1, Pennsylvania will row the Navy crew, while Columbia will tackle the same aggregation on the following Satul~ day. This leaves the last two Satur- days in May, the 18th and 18th, as the best available dates, and if no unexpected development turns up. the race probably will be held on one of these days.
 This race. if it is arranged, the, an- nuaI contest with Annapolis and an entry in the American Henley at Philadelphia will be the only events on Columbia's preliminary schedule Attempts were made without results te Tet races with Yale or Harvard.

DEAFNESS CANNOT BE CURED

by local applications, as they annot
reach the diseased portion of the ear.
There is only one way to cure deaf
ness, and that is by constitutional
remedies. Deafness is caused by an
inflamed condition of the mucous lin
ing of the Eustachian Tube. When
this tube is inflamed you have a rum
bling sound or imperfect hearing, and
when it is entirely closed, Deafness is
the result, and unless the inflamma-
tion can be taken out and this tube
restored to its normal condition, hear
ing will be destroyed forever; nine
cases out of ten are caused by Catarrh,
which is nothing but an inflamed con-
dition of the mucous surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars
for any ase of Deafness (caused by
catarrh) that connot be cured by
