BARS FAIRIES IN
ATHLETIC MEET
University of Chicago Director Says That
Wearing of Dresses Does Not "Put
Iron in Blood"

Chicago, May ia. A. Stagg, ath-
letic director at the University of Chi
cago, does not approve of athletes who
dress in himsy draperies and dance as
"faresv in campus dramatic produc-
lions.
This is the reason why "Pete" Rus
SELL quarterback of last years football
team and Stelan Windrow will not be
among the Chicago athletes in the dual
track meet between Chicago and the
University of Illinois, held to-day at
Champaign, III.
Dressed as women, Russell and Wind
row took part in classic dance in the
annual play given by the Black Friars
club last week. In response to query
as to why Russell and Windrow were
not entered for the track meet, Coach
Stagg sent this communication to the
Daily Maroon, the university paper:
aside from the necessity of conform
ing to certain rules of discipline, | have
a theory--and this is not meant as a
slam at the Black Friars-that wear
ing dresses or living in an atmosphere
which is essentially effeminate does not
put iron in the blood and is not con-
ducive to good athletics"
The director also asserted Russell had
not been conforming to the training
rules. Russell is a hurdler and Wind
row puts the shot.

Representative John Jacob Rogers,
whose pertinacity has resulted in caus-
ing Secretary Daniels to think twice be-
fore he permitted American flags to be
made of British fabrics, was informed
yesterday by Assistant Secretary of the
Navy Franklin d. Roosevelt that the
contract for bunting would be placed in
the United States The bids for the
supply needed were as follows: c. b.
Brook, Bradford, England, S34,5S363;
Nostrand- Reynolds, Halifax, England.
S34,34950; Harold M. Turner, for United
States Bunting company of Lowell,
$44,625 The Nostrand- Reynolds bid, it
was said, would have been rejected any
way because the samples were not up to
specifications. The duty on wool bunt-
ing is thirty.ive per cent. and the
Lowell concerns are the only makers of
bunting in the United States the con-
tract probably will go to one of them.
This is the first time a British concern
ever has bid ON bunting.

The Senator Makes Auda-
cious Use Of the
Privilege
HIS TALK, 365 PAGES,
COSTS TO PRINT $19,sO2
Actual Speech Covers Only
Six Pages-American
Bunting to Be Used

/, Washington, May l5.-The most au.
dacious use of senator's privilege
known in connection with the publica-
ton of speech was disclosed yesterday
in special issue OF the Congressional
Record made necessary by the railroad
rate speech of Senator Robert Nj. La
Toilette of Wisconsin.
This special issue, dated May IL, con-
sists of 365 pages. The bare cost OF
printing, which was fifty-five cents a
copy, was Sl9,S02.20, as 10000 copies are
printed for members of Congress alone,
exclusive of carriage or other copies pub
lished for the departments and the out
side mailing list. The actual speech of
La Toilette occupied only six pages, the
remaining 800 being given to letters and
clippings addressed to the commission
and others which the Senate innocently
allowed the senator from Wisconsin to
insert without reading. The whole pub
LEGATION weighs one and three fourths
pounds. The regular issue of the Con-
gressional Record for May II, containing
the proceedings of both House and Sem
ate, consisted of only seventy.one
pages, against the 1876 given to the Wis
consin senator, and cost nine cents a
copy, to fifty-five cents for the La Fol-
lette issue.
This speech delivered May 5, was di-
rected against what La Toilette de-
scribes in its title as an organized cam
paign designed to influence decision in
the railroad rate case" At the time of
its delivery it was generally regarded
as bald commission of the very offence
it acclaimed against, for its obvious pur
pose was to influence the interstate com
merce commission not TO grant per
cent increase in freight rates requested
by the railroads in eastern classification
territory.
The doubtful taste of this procedure is
suggested by the fact that Commissioner
Meyer of Wisconsin was appointed d.
rectly through La Follette's influence,
and the senator was instrumental also
in securing the reappointment of Com
missioner Clements, whose term expired
last December.
