The change means the lifting of an

from the sidewalks Of the famous thor
oughfare and the bringing OF light and
fresh air to store-fronts. The Bowery
has been a dark and dingy street night

The elevated tracks are now grouped

the Bowery chance to feel and reveal

BIG NINE VOTES TO DROP
INTERCOLLEGIATE BALL

Chicago, Ill, Dec. members OF
the big nine faculty committee today
sounded the death knell of baseball as
an intercollegiate sport In the confer
ence. In addition to refusing to sane
ton summer baseball playing by their
athletes. the committee voted to re-
fer to each institution a resolution
providing for the abolition of the dia-
mond sport entirely. except for inter-
class contests.
As most of the delegates voted un-
der instructions. It 10 presumed that
the colleges will support their resolu-
ton and that intercollegiate baseball
will be given up before the spring
season starts. An objection by only
one university. however. will force q
reconsideration of the resolution by
the committee, and unless q special
meeting Of the committee Is called for
the reconsideration before its regular
June meeting. tho single objection
would have the effect of allowing one
more baseball season.
According to conference custom,
the alignment Of the delegates on the
question was not given out. Secre-
tary T. r. Moran. Purdue representa-
tive, said that the vote on the aboli-
ton Of intercollegiate baseball was
seven to two. and for the retention of
the summer baseball rule. six to three.
Reports that there had been techni-
cal violations of the rule against
football practice before September 20
were received. A committee was ap-
pointed to investigate A COMMITTEES
to investigate the physical effects of
cross-country running also was ap-
pointed.
Sentiment was not found strong In
favor Of the establishment of soccer
football and golf as intercollegiate
sport. and no action was taken on
them. The committee voted to re-
quire one day of open football prac-
tice a week. but declined to limit
secret practice to two days.

THREE BATTLERS JUMP
TO FRONT In YEAR

New York. Dec. lin the last year
three boxers have jumped into prpmi-
nence. Two OF them are known quanti-
ties. The ability of the third is shrouded
in more or less mystery. but the fact
that he has been selected to be the first
to oppose Jess Willard since the lat
ter won the heavyweight championship
OF the world from Jack" johnson en-
titles him to mention with the others
Les DaTchy. the Australian middle
weight, and Johnny" ErtIe. the St.
Paul "Kewpie.''
They represent three divisions. Ertle is
a bantanweight. Darcy Is q middleweight
and Fulton. a heavyweight. Is known as
the Rochester Giant Darcy's fame
was enhanced when he stopped Eddie"
McGoorty. Ertle polished his own repu-
tation when kid" Williams lost to him
on a foul. Fulton came out of the back
woods when he asserted he had fioored
Willard in an exhibition bout.

Nine. Recamier. the famous French
beauty, once remarked that she knew
her good looks were waning, as the boys
on the street no longer stopped to gaze
at her. 1 do not know at what age
madame made this observation. but GER.
tainly at period in her life when we Of
today would regard her rs distinctly
young, since at her death she was still
the most beautiful woman in France.
The story is often told of a handsome
popular belle who had all the world at
her feet. so to speak, but whose dread
OF the first almost imperceptible appear
ance OF declining youth was so overpow-
ering that she preferred death, OF
course, such overweaning vanity Is q
form of insanity. utterly Incompetent
sible to right-minded person; yet so
characterless a creature is more to be
pitied than censured.
Mime. Recamier was built in a different
mold; she was the acme of unselfishness;
her sympathy with every shade and de-
gree of human nature was SO exquisite
that it reflected itself in all her acts.
Such a disposition would engrave lines
of beauty upon the plainest face, and as
II goes without saying that had this no.
ted woman been merely beautiful. her
claim to posterity would rest upon a very
fiimsy structure, since
Beauty dies and fades away,
Ugly lies the bone
Beauty is but skin deen
But ugly holds its own.
The story of the silly belle whose name
is long ago forgotten is repeated only be-
cause it points a moral: on the other
hand, Nine. Recamier's luster will never
fade. as her beautiful character shines
out with undiminished light by virtue of
the charming qualities of her heart and
mind.
At a time when women formerly took
a back seat and believed themselves
out Of the running, women of today are
just beginning to feel themselves. This
has been brought about by the supreme
rapidity with which we live, plus our
fashions. We can all remember when
those who were fair. fat and forty"
settled down in their rotund compla-
cency to make way. for the younger"
element Younger element. forsooth!
