ARMY AND NAVY MEN
SEEK FOOT BALL SITE
Deadlock Over New York and Phil
adelphia-May Select
Princeton.

NEW YORK, March 31.-Several army
and navy officers, representing the ath-
letic associations of Annapolis and
West Point academies. held a meeting
at the Hotel Astor yesterday and dis
cussed the possible places for holding
the Army-Navy foot ball game next
November. Lieut.. Philip Mathews and
Lieut.. j. X Jamison We're among the
army officers present and H. A. Pierce
and r. NJ. Comford represented the
navy.
There is considerable controversy
about where the game will be played.
The army wants it again at the Polo
Grounds, but the navy objects to the
long trip here, and advocates playing
the game in Philadelphia again. The
business men in both this city and Phil
adelphia are using all their influence
TO get the game. The University of
Pennsylvania will probably not have It
on Franklin Field because of the limit
ed seating capacity, but the Philadel-
American or National League base ball
parks in that city for the contest. II
will be impossible under present con-
ditionS to accommodate in Philadelphia
a crowd of $4,000 such witnessed
the game at the Brush stadium here
last year
Favor New York.
Last years game here was capably
arranged and managed, and for that
reason the army wants it played at
the Polo Grounds again. They hope TO
overcome the objections of the navy
about the long railroad trip from An
napolis to this city.
Princeton was also discussed as a
possible site for the game. The new
Palmer stadium will be completed in
time, and this will be the second choice
of the navy if West Point refuses to
select Philadelphia. Two members of
the committee which met here yester-
day will so to Princeton today to con-
fer with G. NJ. Murray. graduate treas
urer of the athletic committee.
The Army-Navy game was played at
Princeton several years ago, and The
big crowd had difficult time getting
there on account of the Insufficient
railroad facilities.
The navy officials believe that before
next fall the PENNSYLVANIA railroad will
enlarge its accommoda lions in order
to be prepared for the increased at
tendance at the games at Princeton
when the now stadium is completed.
The committee arrived at no sat!sfac
tory agreement yesterday. and it viii
probably be some time before the place
for the game is decided upon. The long
wrangle which occurred last year will
probably be repeated, and the final Sc
lection may have to be made by the
secretaries of the army and navy.

Marty O'Toole was the highest priced

years before he showed anything after
being bought for $1,000. 1t undoubt edly

Dubuc and Dauss are undoubtedly the
best pitchers Hughey Jennings will have
this season. He has large squad o.

all the others. But two pitchers of merit
are hardly enough to carry a team

WITH HEAD 70 THE NORTH
Rsasens Why That Position in sleep
Ing May Be Beneficial, Especially
to Those In Poor Health.

In answering a subscribers ques-
ton as to why one should sleep with
ones head to@the north, DR.. Robert
T. Morris in ST. Nicholas says:
Electric currents run north and
south, through the earth. An object
is said to be in a state of better cleo
trio rest is its long axis is in line
with the earth's electric currents. 1t
is my impression that the custom of
sleeping with the head to the north
was adopted before anything was
known about these currents. If that
is the case, l take it to mean that
certain persons are SC readily af-
fected by these influences that they
find themselves disturbed il they try
TO sleep with the short axis of the
body in line with them.
81 have purposely made the exper-
iment and have asked friends to
make it when we were in camp.
None of us noted any connection be-
tween our sleep and our position in
regard to points of the compass. We
were strong and well, however. 1t
might be quite different with inva-
lids.
''The volume of these terrestrial
currents is not commonly appreci-
ated. Drive any iron rod INTO the
ground at right angles to the plane
of the earth's surface and it at once
becomes a magnet"

WASTES THE TIME OF OTHERS
Wait-a-Minute Woman Declared Re-
sponsibIe for Much That Could
Be Avoided.

The "Minute-man" is one who is
ready to respond to duty's call at a
minutes notice, while the 'wsit-a-
minute-woman" is always sure to
keep one waiting for half an hour,
SAYS Il writer in the Boston Herald.
The first is prepared to kill" the en-
envy, while the second makes point
of killing" time. If time is money,
then what misrepresentation of
others funds goes on at the hands
of this stealer of precious moments
Most petty thicving evokes some
kind of punishment sooner or later.
and generally the thief comes to a
sense of remOrse for such misdoing,
but not so this stealer of other
peoples hours; she goes upon her
way rejoicing, continuing her life
of thieving without the least com
junction for all her past oifenses.
The 'minutc-man" marches to
meet his adversary when he is sum-
moncd, and he may be counted on. to
be at the appointed place without de-
lay; the ''wait-a-minute-woman"
makes point of not keeping her APP
pointmcnts and merely murmurs
swcetly, so sorry to have kept you
waiting. But she is really not in
the least sorry" since genuine con-
triton is sure to bring about future
improvement. This is never the case
with that incorrigible, for she is just
as late on the next occasion and no
more "sorry."

ALARM CLOCK IN THE MIND
Explanation of the Power Many Pos
sess Of Always Knowing the
Time to a Minute.

Did you ever know a person who
could always tell the time to min
ute without seeing timepiece? That
there are such people is known
scientific fact The latest theory in
regard to the power of those whose
minds count out the hours and min
utes is given by French psycholo-
gist.
''Time is measured in the subcon-
scious mind by heart throbs. The
heart beats for the most part with
great uniformity and ticks off the
seconds as regularly as a clock
at is in sleeping hours rather
than in waking that the mind works
out the problem best. 1t is no un-
usual feat to say TO your mind at
night, "Call me at 6 30 and You
will waken and wonder why. until
you recall that you planned to get
up at just that time.
"This alarm clock in the mind
can be trained" the psychologist
goes on to say, ''to be much more
accurate than the buzzer on the table,
which sometimes fails to awaken us
III the morning because We have
heard it too often"
The writer says nothing as 10
whether those who are in love will
waken earlier ecausc of their quick
ened heart throbs. or whether those
who are depressed and whose heart
