CONFERENCE ON
ATHLETIC RULES
College Committees Will Take
Up Question of Eligibility
Within Another Week


Princeton. N. =, Nov. 26.-Repre-
sentatives of Harvard, Yale and
Princeton will meet at the Yale Club
in New York early in December to
confer on the question of the athletic
relations OF the three universities.
Not for ten years have the thrse met
for a like discussion. In December,
1905, representatives from Harvard,
Yale and Princeton got together and
drew up the agreement under which
the athletics at the three institutions
now are run. Dean MoClenahan,
chairman of the Princeton committee
which will participate in the confer
ence, said when interviewed to-day;
Some Action Necessary
THE representatives of Princeton,
Yale and Harvard seemed to feel that
some further discussion of our gen.
eral athletic relations was not only
desirable, but necessary. Extension
must be made to meet changing con-
ditions. This conference is for the
purpose of discussing all questions of
athletic relations and athletic conduct
among the three universities, of which
questions of eligibility are only a
part"
Yale is expected to ask for a vote
on the question of the eligibility of
Easton, Legore, Pumpelly and Rhett,
the men who for accepting board
while playing summer baseball were
declared ineligible under the present
rule. Dean McClenahan would not
discuss the possible result of this vote
other than to state that probably Yale
will vote in the negative if a reinstate-
ment of the players Is proposed.
The representatives of the three
universities at this conference will be
chosen from the committees which
control the various sports within the
individual colleges.

HAS
 BUSIEST SESSION.;
 CLEANS UP DESKS

Hartford. May 15.-The Senate yes terday morning faced a matter of six ty-five bills and resolutions which were ready for its action and when 1C adjourned, at 6 o'clock last evening, it had disposed of some sixty of them. Most of the day was spent in run ming fight over a sheII-fish matter re- ported by the finance committee. In a burst of originality one senator termed it inquisitorial. Presently Senator Isbeu intimated that the oys- termen proposed to get by without any material tax increase and the re- suit Justified his remarks the Sen ate added various amendments be- fore passing the bill, stopping just short of granting a subsidy to the oystermen.
 All the appropriation bills in sight were cleared and the only two inn portant matters left on the Senate calendar are the jitney bill and the one revising and otherwise toying with the succession tax The home rule bills were passed without mur- mur and an act incorporating the city of Shelton passed as soon as a poll of the Senate showed that no member knew what it contained in asmuch as it fills 16O odd pages of the file. Before adjournment it was announced that the Senate will dine at the Hartford Golf Club next Mon day night, when the presentation of gifts to various members and off cials, all of whom are densely ignor- ant of what is likely to happen will take place.
 The House had a session that was uneventful except that when 1t ad- jOurned, at a little before 5 o'clock in the afternoon, it was able to boast that it had completed practice all it's work except disagreements and other matters still to be submitted from the Senate. sf Mr. Hyde of Man. chester, asked that the members come, Monday, prepared to stay still until an indefinite hour in the even | ing. Eivi dently he expects that every thing will then be ready for the for nal informalities of an adjournm ent day on Tuesday. The morning half of the session, yesterday, presented 1 the unusual spectacle of a; committee
 being trampled upon without protest from the victims and with evidence, even that the trampIed somewhat en- 1 jOyed their experience. The occasion was the passing of a bill appropriat- l ing $16, 900 for agricultural extensi on work in the counties, after it had been reported unfavorably by the ap- propriations committed There were many speeches and votes against the
 report, but practically none in it's fla vor. A real contest developed over a
 bill appropriating S6O,oOo for a state
 armory at Waterbury. It was pass
 ed after successive attempts had been
 made to cut the appropriation in half and to more than double it. During
 the afternoon there was a lively scrap 1 over a bill to relieve savings banks
 directors of certain financial responsf- 1 bilities. It was passed after MT. Stod- dard of Woodbridge had apologized
 for being facetious at the expense of 1 MT. Isbeu of Ansonia and a cousin l of his wife whas was not named.

Government Getting Figures on Capacity
 of Munition Plants

Washington, May 15.-War Depart ment officials recently sent out in quiries to the important munition plants in this country asking them about capacity and changes in ca pacity for turning out munitions of war.
 A government official said tonight this action should not be regarded as having been taken as result of the relations between the United States and Germany. RN added:
 Congress always wants to know from the officials of the government where and how much munitions can be had. For several years such in quiries have been made. The War De- partment began after adjournment of Congress, to send inquiries to various plants to get their capacity and any changes in their capacity"
