SUCCESS IN ATHLETICS
BRINGS MORE STUDENTS
Increased Registration at Harvard
Follows Victory on the
Gridiron.

CAMBRIDGE, Mass, February 49,
That success on the athletic field con-
tributes to a bigger college attendance is
amply demonstrated by the figures OBJ
tainable through the registration records
at the university. A victory or defeat
for an athletic team means = correspond
ing increase or decrease In registration
the subsequent year.
In the year following a Yale foot ball
victory there has always been a decrease
in the enrolment at Harvard of fresh
men from public schools. Most students
who so to private schools have as rule
a traditional preference for certain uni
versities. But in the public schools the
choice is made during the school course
or at it's cQpclusion. s..s4..s.,

welt for the presidential nomination. A
Mr.. Pinchot is one Of the coloners mos,
intimate friends and has been in con.
ference with him repeatedly in the past
few weeks, consistently refraining up te
this time from making any comment upon
the presidency, his announcement was
taken by politicians to be preliminary tc
the colonePs expected forthcoming dec.
laration OF candidacy.
Medill Mccormick left La Toilette, went
over to Roosevelt and after a visit to
New York came back aNd opened head

this is followed by an outright declara-
ton by Clifford Pinchot. The politicians
can therefore place no other construction
upon these consecutive events than that
the colonel was having his friends pave
the way for his appearance in the open.
Will Respond to Draft.
1t is noted that all Of the Roosevelt
boomers are adroitly taking the position
that this is a case Of the colonel being
drafted for service. The colonel has in
timated all along that he would respond
to a. draft. Every utterance Of the Roose-
welt hackers points to the necessity, as
they see it. Of some one taking the lead
of the progressive forces and OF Roose-
welt being the only man to do 1t.
Mr.. Pinchot's statement issued last
night. follows in full:
1.-THE struggle, which until recently has
centered around Senator La Follette's
candidacy, was undertaken for two clear
and specific purposes first, to hold the
fighting force; and, second, to prevent the
nomination of a reactionary republican
for the presidency. Within the last
month circumstances have made it i'm
possible to accomplish, by means Of the
candidacy Of Senator La Toilette, either
of these two purposes. and the impera-
tive need for another leader has been
made plain.
"One of these circumstances is the i'll
health of Senator La Toilette. which all
his friends SO greatly deplore. l retain
undiminished my admiration for the high
quality Of his past services to the pro-
gressive cause, but the course which the
senator has elected to pursue will not
that course 1 cannot follow him. From
the beginning I have fought for cause
and a principle, and not for a man.
Notifies La Toilette.
1.-THE reasons for the action am taking
are set forth at length in a letter to
Senator La Toilette, in which I have no
titled him that since, in my judgment. his
candidacy no longer will advance the pro-
gressive cause, I shall hereafter advo-
cate the nomination Of Col. Roosevelt,
whose duty 1 believe it is to take up the
leadership of the progressive movement.
Until this notification to senator La
Toilette was delivered 1 have, Of course,
taken no part in advocating the nomina-
ton of Col. Roosevelt.
The country knows that Col. Roosevelt
is a genuine progressive. That question
was settled once for all by his active
championship of human rights during the
seven years of conflict which made the
progressive movement a power in the ma
ton.

HOSPITALITY AND THE LAW
Invitation to Dine invests Colorado
Resident With Certain Rights
Under Protection Of Law.

When q resident of Colorado ne
ceives an invitation to dine with .
friend the next day he is thereby
invested with certain rights and
privileges in which the law will give
him its full protection.
To make this point clear, consider
the case of John Dolan of Denver.
Two days after reaching that city
he dined with two old friends, Mr..
and Mrs. William Patten, and Is he
was taking his departure Mrs. Pat
ten Hospitality remarked: ''Whenever
you feel hungry, just remember my
kitchen"
Mr.. Dolan was ravenously hungry
the very next day, and naturally
enough he remembered Mrs. Patterns
kitchen. But when he arrived at the
Patten residence it was locked, and
nobody was at home. He therefore
broke into the kitchen and ate his
fill; for which he was arrested ON q
charge of house-breaking. The Judge
instructed the jury that If they be-
.heved that Dolan entered the house
on the woman's invitation of the day
before they should acquit him. The
Jury did.
