COLLEGE WRESTLING PLANS
Delegates Meet Here to Discuss
Philadelphia Tournament.

The Intercollegiate Wrestling Associa-
ton held its annual fall meeting at CO.
lumbia University yesterday afternoon.
Because Of the absence of delegates from
Yale and Pennsylvania State It was i'm
possible for the meeting to draw up a
tentative schedule for the year. and an
other meeting will be held. probably next
month. in Philadelphia. Plans were dis
cussed for the conduct Of the intercolle-
giate tournament, which is to be held
at the University of Pennsylvania on
March q and Is. 1914 The preliminary
rounds are TO be contested on the after
noon and evening OF the first day, and the
finals will be held on the evening of the
second day.
The scoring plan which the association
adopted last year worked so well that the
delegates decided TO continue 1t for the
present season. with a slight modification
in the method Of timing bouts. Those who
attended as representatives Of their ccl-
leges were II. w. Graham, Lehigh; r. II.
Phipps, Columbia; II. ID. Painter. Prince
ton; J. Walter Levering, Pennsylvania,
and r. III. Johnson, Cornell.

COLUMBIA LACKS GOOD
FRESHMAN CREW MEN
Plenty of Candidates, but All
Too Light for First Class Oars
men, Says Jim Rice.

Jim Rice. coach Of the Columbia crews.
Is facing ono Of the most perplexing prob
lens he has been called on TO solve in
the seven years that he has been trying
TO put Columbia ahead In rowing. He
has more candidates for his first year
crew this season than ever before. sew
enty-eight youngsters having registered
already for the freshman squad, but on
the whole II is so light and so poor in
quality that he thinks his chances OF
turning out presentable crew next
spring are not much better than they
were a year ago with the 1916 freshmen.
Columbia has one OF the largest enter
ing classes in It's history this year, the
total being something over four hundred.
and Il has been a more or less general
impression on Morningside Heights that
the athletic material OF the class was far
superior TO that OF recent classes. Rice.
however. says this is not so. and further
states that so far he has hardly more
than dozen men OF really first class
promise as crew candidates. The official
physical examination OF the class which
is conducted each year by the depart
ment OF physical education is not yet
complete but 80 far II is said that the
students examined have failed TO disclose
a higher average than those OF the two
or three classes Immediately preceding.
Rice feels keenly the situation which
confronts him. but is working with the
men ne has TO the best OF his ability.
The average weight OF the freshman
squad at the present time is about $50
pounds. whereas Rice demands that II his
efforts are to count for anything he must
have men weighing at least l60 pounds.
Rowing is not the only sport that is
feeling the dearth OF good material, for
Bernie Wefers, coach OF the track team.
is wondering when he is going 10 get any
track men from the incoming class. The
interclass games are TO be held I'm ten
days. but to date not more than half a
dozen freshmen have turned out for prac-
tice. In baseball the freshmen made q
fairly good showing In numbers and they
also showed that they had some promis-
ing players in the series OF games for
the interclass championship.

Princeton Not Hopeful
of Beating Yale Crew

lar varsity oarsmen have returned. DR..
victory:
81 am satisfied that there is material
for crew which will be perhaps more
powerful than last years The men have
been showing Improvement for the last
week. but are still far from racing form.
They were sent over the mile and a half
course yesterday and made from two to
three lengths slower time than last year"
Princeton's chances rest on a compara-
lively green list of men. who have never
rowed together before this fall, Captain
Briggs, Pyne and Putnam being the only
regulars left from last year. Bunzel, who
substituted for Briggs In the Harvard
race last year, is also in the boat this
fall.
OF the men who now make up the per-
sonnel OF the Tiger eight Captain Briggs
and Pyne are accomplished oarsmen. with
powerful stroke. and form the most de-
srable sort OF nucleus for winning crew.
Putnam. at stroke, Is characterized by
DR.. Spaeth as my greatest find last
spring" He is invaluable to the crew, as
he clearly demonstrated when he set the
pace which defeated Harvard last year
He is rowing In good form again this
year.
Heffron is perhaps the strongest OF the
new men, but he shows the rough edge OF
inexperience. He was a member OF the
10 class crew which defeated the Yale
freshmen In 1872 but has not rowed since.
and reported for the first time this fall
as an eligible for the varsity.

College Athletics Do
Not Affect Longevity

bers OF that famous crew who are living
and I'm good health. besides the gentleman
whose memory betrays him about events
OF so long ago.
These two definite Instances OF er-
roneous assertions about the death OF old
athletes. both from apparently trust
worthy sources. will suffice TO show that
the many statements made In articles and
addresses cannot be accepted unless the
facts have been obtained from reliable
records. and not from the doubtful recol-
lectlons OF old gentlemen.
The records show that during the
period OF forty-one years from 1852 10
1882, inclusive there were thirty-hve races
between Harvard and Yale. one race
was with n crew OF four. twelve races
with crews OF six and nineteen races
with crews OF eight men. The total num-
ber OF different men on these thirty-flve
crews is l52. OF these l20 were living on
June %. 1903.
THE first question that suggests itself
Is. How do these oarsmen compare in
longevity with other men? To determine
this We have TO make use OF the expecta-
tion Of life tables. In the schedules of
the American experience table OF NOR
tally II appears that a healthy young
man OF twenty years is expected to live
422 years more.
'ln averaging up the age OF Harvard
oarsmen. I'm all the crews under con-
sideration. / found Il TO be almost exactly
twenty years. II we take, for example,
the eight men who constituted the first
crew. in 1852. we find that the year OF the
race these men. being twenty years old.
were expected TO live on an average each
422 years, or a total OF 1916 years for
the crew.
Five OF these men were living fifty
one years after the race. But as these
men were only expected to live 422 years
and they have already lived hfty-one
years. they have lived each Ss years more
than was expected. or the five together
have exceeded expectation OF life by
forty-four years.

AMERICAN KENNELS ARE
GAINING NEW STRENGTH
Pekingese Enthusiasts Inter
eSted in Importation of Two
Highly Bred Puppies.

Nine Vernona Jarbeau, who has here
tofore been identified almost exclusively
with the breeding and showing Of French
bulldogs, has just purchased a number OF
King Charles and Pekingese spaniels.
Nine. Jarbeau has also some new French
bulldogs which she is saving for the AL
bany show.
Lady Moor, owner OF the noted Wink
field Kennels and one OF the first to breed
Pekingese dogs in England has just sent
two sons OF the famous Piggie OF Wink
field to Mrs. Carl Spottiswood. Of Van
couver 1t is reported that the young
celebrities are to be campaigned, and
American families are on the qui vive
TO see them.
Prince Arthur OF Connaught, who Is one
Of the most enthusiastic OF bulldog
fanciers, has had considerable success at
the English shows this season with two
good specimens which he had exhibited.
They are called Woodcote Idyl and Wood,
cote Horatio.
His bride, who was the Duchess Of Fife,
has long been devoted to the breeding
Of fox terriers. The favortte In the
prlncess's kennels Is a son Of the famous
CRsar. the devoted companion OF the late
King Edward. which followed his coffin
through London.
Mrs. Samuel WillettSs pride in the nrst
litter of Sealyhams of her own breeding
is quite justified. for they have been pro-
nounced by those who know the wiry
little terriers to be the most even litter
and the heaviest boned puppies ever seen
in America.
Their mother lie the noted winner
Senny Lily. Mrs. Willetss most recent
importation, Affeton Betty. won the cup
for the best Of the breed at the recent
Danbury show. This was the young

pat on the Currency Bill.
Well, of course, he has and they
are sound as common sense as loyal
as patriotic as were ever advanced by
any American.

Would it be possible to conjure up
some other excuse! Is it not a fact
that all money, regardless of material
used, is fiat money! Fiat money
means lawful money, nothing more
nor nothing less. The thing we call
