u 1mor Concerning Warrington Ga"
Light Untrue. Reside Says.

That the United Gas Improvement Com
pany, OF Philadelphia. has obtained cor
troll of the Washington Gas Light Com
pany was denied yesterday by Howard
S. Rceside. president OF the Washington
company. He stated that the Philadei-
phia concern will have no voice in The
management of the local company.
The rumor probably started, it vas
said because the Washington company
retained the services of the Philadelphia
concern to investigate conditions in this
city with view to suggesting changes
whereby gas could be supplied to the
residents of Washington cheaper.

Coach Is Necessary,
Says Vivian NickaIls

Philadelphia, April zs.-"Athletic
coaches at the University of Pennsyl-
vania are doing as much as any pro-
fessor to bring out the best in stu
dents" This is the answer of
Vivian Nickalls, coach of the crew,
to Assistant Professor Thomas d.
O'Bolgers charge that athletic
coaches. the "least desirable" element
in the University were back of the
movement to have morning classes
begin at o'clock instead of in
order that athletes may have more
time to practice.
In letter to the Pennsylvanian, a
student newspaper, the crew coach
yesterday said:
"I have not written on the subject
of to classes before because l con-
sidered it a matter best left to the
undergraduates themselves. Mr.
O'Bolger has chosen to write a letter,
published in Mondays issue, full of
abuse of athletics and with ground
less arguments against the to 4
proposition.
"Mr. O'Bolger starts out by saying
that the coaches are the least desir-
able group of men in the University.
This / call a most scurrilous attack
on a body of men who do as much
for the University as any professor
in bringing out that which is best in
man, promoting high thoughts, the
desire to fame and all that makes a
man."

PICTURE FIGHT ON;
TEST FEDERAL LAW
Seek Permission to Give Exhibi-
tions; Films Are Not For Sale,
Is Announcement
By McManus

Newark, April 2S.-In the effort to
have the Willard ] ohnson fight pictures
SHOWN In the United States, own
ers of the picture right started legal
battle yesterday 1t is to be a fight
to a finish.
The first step preliminary to the be-
ginning of the legal battle was taken
here yesterday, when Mr.. Towne made
formal demand upon the Collector
of the Port that the pictures be ad-
mitted. Refusal was given on the
ground that the Federal statutes for
bad it.
Mr. Towne then served notice that
he would apply to Judge Thomas G.
Haight in the United States District
Court on Friday for an Injunction re-
straining the collector from refusing
to admit the pictures. 1t is expected
that argument will be heard about
week later and that the applicants will
contend that the law barring the pic
lures is unconstitutional.
Mr.. Towne said that his applica-
ton for an injunction would set forth
that the owner desires to bring the
pictures into this country not for sale,
but for exhibition by himself. He said
1T would be admitted that they are
films of prizehght, not of a boxing
bout.

For Permanent Injury

New York, April 2S.-Melvin w.
Sheppard, holder of worlds cham
pionship amateur running records
and representative of the United
States in several Olympic contests,
filed suit yesterday for $4,000 for
damages because of injuries sustained
by a fall, in Madison Square Garden
February 10 last, which, he alleges,
removed him from the field of
athletics.
The defendants are the show cor
poration and the New York Athletic
Club. To their negligence his COM
plant ascribes the injury which re-
suited in his alleged disability.
on the night of February 10, the
complaint sets forth, Sheppard was
competing in a 300-yard race in the
Garden when he stepped upon a part
of the flooring which was weak, di-
lapidated, rotten and dangerous" It
broke and he was thrown, he
charges, and sustained various
bruises. In addition, he alleges, his
muscular system was severely wrench
ed and he sustained a great shock to
his nervous system.
Sheppard states that as a result he
will be forever barred from competi-
ton in amateur athletic games.
