families. Sometimes families travel

Is no mixing of domestic arrangements

Keene Fitzpatrick Of Princeton.--"1

Harry Huffman Of Dartmouth.-"My
opinion is that the regulations Of this
event should remain as they are. and
the necessary precautions should be
taken against accidents"
Thomas Keene of Syracuse.-"I can
not see where the danger will be less

and shortening the handle. The
chances OF a broken wire would nat
urally be greater with a heavier ball.
