I has been thought advisable by the associates OF
Professor Friedrich Migge, whose discovery OF
method OF. eradicating the bacteria which causes
falling of the hair and badness to issue statement
designed to be of especial interest to who wish
to take the steps necessary to the preservation OF their
hair and it's healthflness The press of the entire
United States has devoted many columns within the
last few weeks to discussion and description of the
discoveries made by the scientist after many years
of untirng investigation but the majority of this edi
toria comment has been devoted to the effect of the
discovery in the prevention of badness it obtains
among masculinity. The discovery, from scientific
standpoint is Of just the interest to women who
care to be particular as to men.
II VERY statement given to the public in connec-
ton with the work being done by the Migge
Laboratories in the preservation and treatment of the
human hair is made only after it has been carefully
scrutinzed by the director Of the laboratories him

By Friedrich Misse

Formerly Of the University Of Berlin Caesie Institute Ldborde
llepue Medical College Laboratories Stanford Unpersiy Lat
les and the private laboratories Of Dr. Powell Erich Of Berlin
Il have found in my researches while in
pursuit Of method Of attacking and Grad
icating the various species of bacteria
which destroy the hair, that almost all the
trouble with their hair experienced by women
who consider the hair their proudest ornament
is directly traceable to the minute organisms
which secrete themselves in the hair canals,
it's roots and in the hair follicles. Fortu-
nately the feminine hair is so long that only
in rare instaces do the bacteria penetrate the
root itself usually their spores remain in the
hair canals, causing the hair to first lose its
lustre, then become brittle, then begin to
break off just below the tips and, finally, to
fall out altogether.

"Massaging is the most usual method re-
sorted to in any Of these conditions by women
who wish to prevent the progress Of any of
these shortcomings. Massaging is an excel
lent thing to resort to in such cases, as it
keeps the scalp invigorated and prevents the
rapid multiplication Of the bacteria to some
extent But as cure, or as permanent re-
lief, as women will testify to- it is Ineffective.
Gradually the bacteria increase, until it is
found that the falling or breaking Of the hair
becomes more and more noticeable

DEATH OF YALE
0ARSMAN TRAGIC
Dick Whittier Found Wander
ing I'm Boston Streets

Brookline, Mass. Oct. 27-Richard
Clement Whittier, headmaster at the
Pomfret school at Pomfret. and a
prominent Yale oarsman, died here
yesterday morning in the Brookline
sanatoriunl. where he had been con-
fined since September 1. when he was
found wandering the streets OF
Boston in a half-dazed condition.
Richard Whittier. popularity known
throughout his career at Yale as
Dick whittier, was an example of
the man who -embodies the best Yale
spirit. the lad who comes to the uni
versity unheralded, with no recon-
mendation but a magnetic personal
ity which carries everything before it,
and becomes in a short time the idol
Of his classmates. He was a gradu-
1905. He rowed on three successive
victorious crews, 1903. 1904 and 1905,
of the latter of which he was captain.
He was president of his class at
Shelf. and voted the most popular
man, the man most to be admired,
and the one who had done the most
for his class. Not only in athletics
was he active, but he took a large
part in University Y. NJ. C. A. work.
He helped bring the crew to victory
in three successive years. He rowed
No. 8 in 1903, and No. in 1904 and
1906
He was a member of Delta Psi and
st. Anthonys.
= Winters end was as tragic as his
life had been successful. During the
summer he had found himself consid-
erably broken down in health af-
ter his arduous duties OF the year,
but was prepared to return to his
work In the fall, with what seemed to
be his old time vigor. About Septem-
Der 1 a man was found huddled in one
of the doorways of house in the
most forlorn section of Boston. His
clothes were torn. and disarranged,
and he could give no account of him
self. His mind appeared to have suf-
fered a lapse. He was taken to the
Brook1ine sanatorium and there held
to await Identification. In that state
he remained until found by Mrs. Ohm
stead. who Instituted a search for
him when he. did not return to the
school. Doctors said he was afflicted
with Bright's disease, augmented by
other organic affections.
His death recalls the death of other
notable Yale athletes, Jim Hogan,
Gordon Brown and more latterly Girls
void, of the 1908. crew.

White Sox world tourists a great re-
ception yesterday afternoon in wealth

game, it was won by the Giants BY

Umpire KLEIN introduced each player
to the crowd as he came to bat the
first time and all were given hearty
receptions. The greatest noise was
when he announced Jim Thorpe in
1.-The worlds greatest athlete" Then
the Indian cracked one for a single TO
right and showed what he was in the
way of speed.
The Giants won by a goodly margin.
Manager Callahan used three pitchers.
Russell, Faber and Scott, and only six
hits were secured off the trio, but two
bad throws were mixed up in the deal,
which accounted for a majority Of the
Giant scores. Bih JEFF Tesreau went
the full route for the Giants, and while
he was touched for ten safe blows r
kept them well scattered.

NEED new CHAMPIONS
In FIGHTING RANKS

The middleweight class has given
signs of waking up of late This
month two prominent claimants Of the
title, Frank Klaus and Harry Lewis,
have been eliminated by younger men.
Gradually the list of incornpetents who
have sought to fill the shoes of STAN
ley Ketchel are being Weeded out Per-
haps among the newcomers one will
be found with sufficient class to arouse
interest In this division once more
The lack of champions has been a
great handicap to boxing during the
past few years. AT present CouIon,
the bantam chief, is practically in re-
SO far as real bouts go. Kill
bane is said to have oiltgrown the
fea therweigllt division. This leaves
Willie Richie as the only active
champion capable of arousing interest.
If Packey Mcfarland and Mike Glib
bons can be brought together at 145
pounds the welterweight class will
boom once more. But the chances are
the present talk of matching this pair
will never advance further than the
conversational stage. Two weeks ago
Gibbons made las pounds for Spike
Kelly, scaling early in the afternoon
The ST. Paul boxer made an Indifferent
showing. He declared that he had
been weakened by the weight and that
in the future he would not try to re-
duce so low.
Be as it is, Gibbons would have lit
tie chance in ten round bout if he Is
weakened by making weight. He
would be no better than an even
choice at any weight. Gibbons needs
an advantage in order to- offset Nc
F,arlapd's superior skill. On form Nc
Farland rates at least ten pounds bet
ter.
IF Leach Cross drops over a. lucky
punch on Willie Ritchie it would be a
great thing for New York boxing Not
that Cross would be especially orna-
mental as champion, but merely be-
cause a demonstration that title can
change hands in New York would add
interest to the bouts.

COL. ROOSEVELT, SIS
TOMORROW, STILL HANDY
WITH HIS FISTS

The boxing game. decentIy conduct
ed, has few f1rmer friends than Col
Theodore Roosevelt. Although he
will pass his ffty-ffth milestone to-
day, the chief of the Bull 1Ioosers is
still handy with his fists. and likes
nothing better than to put on the
gloves for a friendly bout. While the
Colonel IS fond of nearly all athletic
sports, he believes that boxing IS the
best of all for building up the body
and conserving the health. AS a youth
Col. Roosevelt was delicate and
"spindling," and at Harvard he took
up boxing under competent direction
and was transformed into an athlete.
Not long ago the former President
sent a message to the Olympic Games
Congress advocating the inclusion Of
boxing contests in the Olympic pro
gram. He laid great emphasis on the
benefit he had personally derived frora
boxing, and asserted that If it were
not permitted to become brutal and
if the betting element were excluded
boxing was one Of the finest of sports.
The Amateur Boxing Association OF
England has waged a campaign to
have boxing included in the Olympic
program, and King George is In
thorough sympathy with the move
nent.
Col. Roosevelt's attaipments as a
boxer are largely due to the instruc-
ton he has received in the manly
art from Prof. Mike Donovan, the
veteran. instructor in boxing at the
New York A. c., and long a profes-
siona1 pugilist in the bare-knuck1e era
of the game. Prof Mike has de-
clared that he has never had a more
proficient pupil than Teddy" Col
Roosevelt is also a good wrestler hav-
ing taken lessons in the mat game
from Billy MuIdoon and others II
the Colonel should be forced to de-
fend himself against an attack how
ever, he wouldn't have to depend On
boxing and wrestling. He knows the
Japanese art of jiu Jitsu from A to Z.
having been the pupil of John
O'Brien, at one time a police official
in Nagasalcf, Japan. He is also an
expert in the ancient exercise Of sin
gle stick, thanks to the Instructions
of Gen. Leonard Wood.
Boxing, fencing, wrestling and ten
mis- all play a part in the Colonel's
training for a political campaign. He
also takes long rides, on horse and
bicycle, chops trees, pitches hay and
walks as far as a pugilist training for
an important fight. He often covers
twenty-five miles day, walking at a
smart pace. which often verges into a
jog trot.

MICHIGAN AGGIES
LEADING IN WEST
Hitherto Unknown Football
Eleven Beats Michigan and
Wisconsin

Chicago, Oct. 27-In football play in
the west, Michigan Agricultural Col
lege occupies the commanding posi-
ton. Leadership decisions are yet to
be made in the Big Nine conference.
Many of the larger teams Of the west
are as yet undefeated, but the Aggies
will have a record of victories over
Michigan and Wisconsin, last years
western champions.
Chicago, a team with "a declared
weakness in the line, placed itself
firmly in the race Saturday by it's de-
feat of Purdue. The Maroon back
showed itself more shifty than that of
the visitors. Its kicking and covering
of kicks was superb, and this factor
was the deciding one in the battle
Purdue showed three Weaknesses
inability to kick, inability to cover
even short and high kicks and inabiI-
ity to handle the, long and elusive
spirals Captain Norgren was sending
to the backs. The Purdue ends failed
to stop the return of punts for long
distances and were also circled from
scrimmage.
In the final minutes of play, howev-
er, Purdue opened it's defense and
showed a fine line of open work, car
rying the ball almost to the Chicago
goal on consistent forward passes
alone.
Illinois proved its right for another
week at least in select company by
defeating Indiana. The Illini have a
meeting four Big Nine teams in sue
cession. It's battle with Chicago this
week is the decisive one in its sched-
ule

Cornish is in a class by himself in
the quarterback material and the
back field is now practically picked as
Cornell, Knowles and Wilson.
Knowles punting; CornelFs running;
