Direc- tor Fitzgerald has organized for reg ular deep water elimination competi- tion among the water bugs of the as sociation, and by means of the new classification chart of the Physical Training journal, publication of the athletic directors of the American Y. M. c. A. Fitz is working up a system of dropping his swimmers into classes and so preparing them for training ac- cordingly.
 The chart system is explained some what as follows There are ten classes beginning with the sink easy class of men unable to swim or unable to swim 25 feet and extending through classes g, f, e, d. c. b, a, to junior and finally senior 1ifesaver. F'itz calls 'em l junior and senior leaders He has also

crea5ed to the propore proportions. ~
 The tennis tournament was to have begun Saturday. afternoon with several sets in both the doubles and singles class. It rained some Saturday morning and although the concrete court was abundantly dry and satisfactory, the grounds were quite impossible. It was decided to leave the starting games un- til the afternoon but when FitZ found there were only a dozen entries for the singles and but five teams, he conclud- ed to hold over two days He wants at least ten teams and twenty four singles entries.
 The conditions of the tournament are quite easy. nominal entrance fee admits anyone to the play, be he mem Der of the association or not. The Y. M. C. A. new cement court, called the best between Denver and the coast is in fine shape. It has been in use for a month and has developed some real classy artists A solid court always conduces to rapid playing, and this one ! is finished in a particular way, smooth | but net slippery so that the very best l foot action is possible. The tourna-
 ment will be the first formal game that
 has ever been pulled off on the new 1 court.

The stunts that Fitzgerald has pre- escribed are somewhat easier than those in force at larger institu- tionS. From the list made out for a senior leader, the stunts grade off to q fifty foot swim, swim on back 25 feet and dive in 65 per cent form which

 so one can practice to advance his standing without over eXerting or un dertaking too much at start. The way Fitz win work it will be to try out the

The property adjoining the New Dennis is owned by Louis Kileen and Mrs George Hageman In the construction and reconstruc- tion work, the general contracting firm of Anderson x Walker. who have done so much good work in the down town district. will have an op- , rortunity to show just what modern methods can attain.

Abraham Lincoln Is Years Ago
on Reverence for Law

The following paragraph is from an address on
The Perpetuaton of Our Political Institutions deiv-
cred by Abraham Lincoln before the Young Mems Ly-
ceum, of Springfield, January ~, 1887. The entire
address from which this extract is taken is printed in
Unity of Chicago, Feb. TO- 1913.
This paragraph should be committed to memory by
every American citizen:
LET reverence for the laws be breathed by every
American mother to the lspng babe that prattle on her
lap let it be taught in schools, in seinares and in COL
leges let be written in primers spelling books and in
amanacs let it be preached from the pulpit proclaimed
in legislative halls and enforced in courts of justice
And in Short let it become the political religion of the
naton and let the old and young the rich and the poor
the grave and the gay of all and tongues and coors
and conditions sacrifice increasingly upon its affairs"

There is no protection to anybody or any
thing in so-caled segregated districts; they
are sources of pollution and corruption. -.
In all its features the report is in accord with
facts and dominant ideas.
The sensible idea that regulation does not regu-

such hold upon the intelligent people of this country
that there IS but one course to pursue the same
course that this vice committee followed in dealing
with the social evil in Chicago In other words the
only solution of the saloon problem is the total
inhalation of the saloon.

brewers monopoly the saloon business as did the

WILL ERADICATE
 PROFESSIONALISM 4. 4. AS DRASTIC ACTION
 SHIP AWARD MAY BE PREVENTED.

Little Rock, Dec. 1.-Such drastic action will be taken by the Arkansas Athletic Association during the win ter that will forever bar from the ranks of the association every athlete against whom there is even a suspi- cion of professionalism.
 Because the association permitted players to compete as amateurs, who were suspected of being professionals, but against whom proof could not be secured Ouachita College withdrew from the association. The executive committee now has proof against prominent athletes on two of the lead ing college teams, which will bar them from future contests, and which will probably prevent an award of the championship in the collegiate foot ball class. The elimination of these men is expected to bring Ouachlta back into the fold.
 Another drastic action on the part of the executive committee IS cam paipn to rid the state of undesirable coaches. Two of the largest cities have already given notice they will not permit their teams to contest with two leading high schools of the state as long as the present coaches are en- gagged These coaches are charged with being unsportsmanlike in thelr actions on the field. Profanity is one of the charges against them, and this is a cardinal crime in the eyes of the committee.
 The executive committee has declln- ed to receive the application of the Helena high school for membership, based upon the squabble when TeXar- kama played Helena basketball in that city last year.
 The committee desires sport for sports sake, and for this reason the awarding of championships will prob ablv be eliminated after this year, It being the sense of the committee that the association will be more harmon ions if there is no cup. If champion ships are awarded plan will be worked out to prevent post-seasoh games.
 It has been suggested that the foot hall teams which expect to be m the race for the championship, send thelr claims to the executive committee by the first of November, thus permitting the committee to make schedules for these teams for the two or three fol- lowing Saturdays, and Thanksgiving day. This would permit the strong teams to meet and prevent a dispute about the championship, for the two teams which had survived the run of battles without defeat, would be pit ted against each other.
