HIGH SCHOOL HEAD
SCORES ATHLETICS
Declares Over Strenuous Games
and Races Are Almost
Criminal

st. Louis, Mo-, April 3.-Football,
baseball and long distance races in
grammar and high schools were char
acterized as almost criminal by DR..
Arthur A. Knoch, of the Walnut Hills
to-day before the American Physical
Education Association.
Our public officials ought to know
he said. that such strenuous physical
exertion eXhausts almost all organs
and that a dilated heart is the natural
result of the unreasonahlY prolonged
tension incident to such games. Our
ideals should not eliminate in the
training of young athletes, but in the
education of mentally and physically
sound and harmoniously developed
mon and women, whose gait. posture
and bodily movements would arouse
the admiration of all.
observe the clumsy, awkward pos
ture of nearly all members of our
high school football teams. Although
the football season lasts only ten
weeks and the daily practice is only
two hours, yet this strenuous physical
work in deep bending trunk position
develops in the young body round
shoulders, q dropping head posture
and a sunken thoraX.

pedagogues and physicians is rapidly
developing into a conviction that
undue pressure is applied and
applied prematurely in forcing
the mental development of school
children. 1t is cruel to de-

TRACK MEET DATE
IS CONFLICTING
Norristown High Will Be Asked to
Change Time of Their
Annual Event

Changing the date for the annual
high school meet in Harrisburg from
May to May Is has brought about a
conflict with the annual high school
meet at Norristown. If not too late,
an effort will be made by the local
committee to have the Norristown
date changed.
Norristown high school has been
quite prominent in track athletics and
the local committee would like to
have the Norristown team come to
Harrisburg. Norristown is also close
rival with Reading. Pottstown, Allen
town and other high school teams in
the east and a conflict of dates may
prevent other crack teams from COM
ing to Harrisburg.
In view of the fact that the meeting
in Harrisburg on May .16 is a State
meet, Reading will cancel the Norris
| town meet and come to this city. Re-
ferring to Readings probable with
drawal from the Norristown meet, the
Reading Eagle says:
The prize of the Harrisburg meet
is a handsome oak shield with bronze
embellishments, to become the perma-
nent property of the school which
wins the meet the greatest number of
times out of q series of seven years.
The meet this year is the last Of the
series, with Reading having two legs,
Central Manual of Philadelphia two
legs, and Harrisburg and Steelton
schools each having one leg on the
trophy.
The practice of candidates on
George Field continues every after
noon that weather permits. The class
teams are developing excellent ma
terial. A number of interclass meets
will shortly be held

Fred J. Lanshe Quits
as Allentown Leader

Allentown, Pa, April 3.-Sporting
circles were given big surprise yes
terday in the announcement of the
resignation of Fred ]. Lanshe as presi-
dent of the Allentown Tri-State base
ball club. The resignation Of Mr..
Lanshe was presented at A special
meeting of the directors. His action
was due entirely to business reasons.
For seven weeks Mr.. Lanshe had
given almost his entire attention to the
affairs of the Allentown club, and,
after putting the organization on it's
financial feet, came to the conclusion
that he would rather be fan in the
ranks than an officer at the head of
the organization. Efforts to get him
to reconsider were unavailng, and his
resignation was accepted with regret.
Max S. S. Erdman, county solicitor
of Lehigh. who was secretary of the
club last year, was chosen president.

An intricate internal machine which,

Outlook Good for
Standard Gauge

While there has been no report
of an official character sent out, yet
recent developments would indicate
the intention on the part of the
Rio Grandc to soon start the work
ofstandardizingt the road from Mont
rose to Salida and the Crested
Butte branch.
The Utah Construction Company
has recently been brought to Mont
rose and the services of this big
outfit would hardly be required for
any work short of reconstruction
of the road We are also informed
from a reliable source that a con-
tract has just been placed with a
Montezuma lumber man to furnish
II large number of standard gauge
ties. Should this road be COM
pleted soon, and we believe this
summer will see tie Transformation,
it is understood there is great prob
ability that the G.. F. e. |. Com
pany may close contract to fur
nish some 1000 tons of coal per day
for the U. S. Pacific coast marine.
Several cars Of test coal were shipped
to the coast about a year ago and
the trial test was very satisfactory
to the navy for steuming purposes,
Notwithstanding that the. shipment
was considerably Stacked in the
transfer at Montrose.
Furthermore, heavy passenger
traffic to the Pacific coast exposi
ton thefollowing yearwill demandin
creased facilities and the Rio Grande
management will without doubt
commence to rebuild as soon as the
season is sadvanced enoughto to warrant
continuous work, if it is the plan to
make the change at all soon. With
in thirty to sixty days the anxious
public will probably know whether
or not the long-talked-of standard
gauge is to be a reality.

Good Game and
Fine Social Time

The box social and basket ball
game at the new Community Guild
Hall last Friday night attracted
large crowd. The hall was well
lighted and especially decorated with
flags. The basket ball game was
the first ever pulled off in town and
much interest centered in the con-
test of the two local tennis, which
were lined up as follows:
Joe Yoklavich, capt'n John Yokavich, cupt'n
A. H. Barnes Joe Faro
J. Arnott Robert McAllister
p. Campbell Paul Hcuchemcr
Tony Rozmsn Mike Bear
John Campbell Leonard Gladstone
The game resulted in a score of
19 to II in favor of the John Yok-
lavich team and was a spirited affair
from start to finish.
The new Band played several
selections during the evening. the
rendition of which was very credit
able to the boys, considering the
short time the band has been re-
hearsing, of only two months.
With corresponding progress in the
future, they will soon be in readi-
ness to accept any engagement that
might be required: A neat sum
was raised from the proceeds to
apply on the expense of hall
fixtures, etc.

which netted the owners $4,000.
This mine was worked steadily up to

the present reduced railroad rates and
low treatment charges on this class
of ore the Tin Cup has very good
future.

o Little Mother of Mine!

Sometimes in the hush of the
evening hour,
When the shadows creep from
the west,
l think of the twilight songs you
sang
And the boy you lulled to rest:
The wee little boy with the tous-
aid head
That long, long ago was thine
l wonder if sometimes you long
for that boy,
o little mother of mine.
And now he has come to mans
estate.
Grown stalwart in body and
strong.
And you'd hardly know that he
was the lad
Whom you lulled with your
slumber song.
The years have altered the form
and the life.
But his heart is unchanged by
time.
And still he is only the boy as of
old.

What is This New
and Rare Metal

According to dispatches from St.
Petersburg, an unique discovery
has been made in Russia, which, if
the preliminary impressions are
realized, may parallel the impor-
lance and value of radium.
In the Namangaska mountains
in the district of Ferghana, new
metal has been discovered whose
properties saresurprising and remark
able. A prospector, searching for
valuable ores IN these mountains,
found, besides rich deposits of ashes
tos, and rare oresof different kinds, a
doughlike metallic substance OF a
dirty brown color, which was not
known to either chemists or metal
lurgists before. He sent sample
of the stuff to the chemical labora-
tory in Moskva, where it was ana
Iized and experimental on with
most surprising results. When the
ore was treated with acids an in
tense cold was developed. The
glass that held the acid was disin-
tecrated into powder. Vessels of
stone and porcelain were reduced
in the same manner. Iron vessels
to hold the acid were then tried
but they exploded instantly and
were reduced to atoms.
The chemistists then tried large
piece of granite. This was in
SANITY disintegrated and reduced
to gravel without explosion or gen.
Grafton of gas of any kind. When
alkalines were brought into contact
with this new substance the YES sells
containing the alkalines lost ~ per-
cent in weight.
SO far as the chemist have yet
been able to ascertain, this new
substance is in no way related to
radium. One of the most curious
phenomena concerning it is that
substances coming in contact with ii
lose much of their weight.
In Russian scientific circles the
opinion prevails that great scien-
tifc surprise is in store for human
ity, probably much greater than
the discovery of radium.
The Ferghana district, where
this curious substance wasdiscoverei, /,
is in Russia Central Asia and il
known to be rich in rare Uetals and
ores OF various kinds,
