MEMBERS NAMED FOR
ALUMNI COMMITTEE
New Athletic System Will Be
Put Before Board of
Regents.
By "Bud" Fishe|

The plan adopted by the Alumni asso-
cia ton OF tho University OF Utah last
Saturday night TO have council OF seven
alumpi supervise the hiring OF the head
coach at the university and oversee the
coaching was again brought before Pres
idcnt Elngsbury yesterday. SO occupied
Is the president with examination week
duties that he was unable TO so into the
details of the plan with the committee
yesterday. He declared that he was still
in favor Of the plan,
Yesterday the Alumni association do
oided on the men to compose the pro-
Wade. Lon Romney, willard Ashton,
Henry Richardson. Tommy Fitzpatrick,
Oscar Carlson and George isiser were
submitted TO the president, and although
he has not the power to act lndepcnd-
entity OF the board of regents. he cX-
pressed himself as being satisfied with
the selection of the committee.
The president took the resolutions OF
the alumni. which include the plans for
tho new athletic system and the recon-
menda tions OF the committee. and VIII
present them to the board OF regents
either today or tomorrow.
Just what attitude the regents will
take cannot be ascertained, but those
who are promoting the new system are
confident that 1t Will be readily ac-
cepted. In commenting upon the plan
last night, Major r. w. Young. mem
Der OF the board of regents. expressed
himself as follows
have not heard the new plan
mentioned in the board meetings
yet but / believe IL will be taken
favorably when brought up for dis
posal The regents have always been
in favor OF some kind OF alumni con-
nection with the coaching, and when
MI Bepnon brought the matter be-
fore them two three years ago IL
met with tine approval OF the board
Perhaps the matter will be handled
In the committee on student activity
and may be settled there, l think.
however that II will receive the sup
port of the board OF regents.
Major Young also said that on a rec
ommendaton of President Kingsbury the
coaching department had been placed un-
der the control of the department OF
physical education. This will take the
department out OF the hands of Fred
Bennion and put ii under the supervision
OF Professor Bolin, who Is head of the
department OF physical education, 1t is
thought that by placing the athletes un-
der the head of the physical education
department that many OF the men who
are In athletics can be better cared for
than they are ar present and That many
who are not now interested in college
athletics can be brought closer In touch
with Mr.. Bennion's work and taught To
appreciate more the value of outdoor
competition.

Up to- the beginning of these efforts for
increased rates there had for many years
been a steady and constantly increasing
percentage of carriers paying dividends as
well as In the rate of dividends paid. IL
appears evident that carriers are suffer-
ing more just now for want of freight to
carry than for want of higher rates. II
Is just as safe to prophesy that this is
temporary condition as to prophesy con-
corning future rates of interest and the
dumping of foreign-held American rail-
way securities on our investment mar
kets. II would not seem to be out Of line
with ordinary prudence and conservatism
prevailing in other lines OF industry, il
the carriers had undertaken to meet this
apparently temporary situation as have
others. Such course, 1t seems to me,
would have contributed to their credit,
rather than the course they have pur-
sued.
This decision of the commission is the
elimination of the concerted efforts of
the respondent, and other carriers, for
general insurance in freight rates begin
ming in 1910.
