MANS DECREASING HEIGHT.
When Adam and Eve Walked Around
 They Woro as Tall as Trooa.

When Adam and Eve Walked Around They Woro as Tall as TrooN.
 It was a French savant named Henrion who POO years ago gave to the world authoritative statements as to the height of Adam and Eve. He said that the father of the race was 123 feet 9 inches high and Eve 11S feet 0 inches. He noted that from the creation of these enlarged editions Of humanity degeneration had been rap Id; that Noah was only twenty-seVen, Abraham only twenty and Moses but thirteen feet in height
 According to this French authority, If the Christian dispensation had not arrested this decrease man by this time-2OO years ago-would have been a mere microscopic object, and We may conclude that by our time he would not have been at all. NJ. Henrion d1d not give any explanation as to how he arrived at his estimate of the height of these ancients-
 Perhaps the most gigantic story on record is that concerning an immense skeleton, said to have been in Sicily, which measured 800 feet in length. This story, however, carries It's own refutation, as 1t is said that found be- side this giant was his walking stick. which was thirty feet long and thick as a telegraph pole. A clever calcu- lator made the estimate that a walk Ing stick only thirty feet fin length for man who measured 800 feet would be as ridiculous as one of seven inches for a man of ordinary stature.-Indian- apolis News.

Yet the undergraduates have seen fit to

the athletic associations position precari
Gus. Something must be done to remedy
such situation, and 1t must be done
quickly.
Every student enrolled in the University
should be forced to become a member of
the athletic association. Some scheme
should be devised whereby such a course
would be as compulsory as the joining of
the Houston Club Then would the stu
dents not only occupy the centre sections,
but one-half of the whole stand. and until
such condition exists 1t little behooves
the student body to demand what they do
not deserve.

ELMER MYERS
TO PITCH FINAL
AGAINST BROWNS
Mack's Sensational Young
ster Will Oppose One of
Jones' Southpaws

The postponement of the third game of
the series between the Athletics and
Browns assures the Mackmen of better
than an even break of series for the first
time this season. Even If the Browns
should win today, the Mackmen would still
have the edge as a result of the first two
victories, but Manager Mack does not in
tend to permit Jones' team to get a single
game.
1t is likely that Elmer Myers will be sent
against the Browns in the final game this
afternoon. as Manager Mack wants to use
the sensational youngster again on Satur-
day and must pitch him today to enable
him to rest for two days prior to his first
start against the White SoX.
If Myers works today, Crowell will open
the series against the White Sox tomorrow,
while Joe Bush will pitch the second game
of the series against Chicago. BY working
his pitchers in this manner Manager Mack
will be able to open the Cleveland series
next Monday with Bush, and the latter will
be given two chances to stop the league
leaders
Manager Jones probably will send an.
other left handler against the Macimen to-
day, Carl Wellman, being the logical choice.
Bob Groom, who was beaten in the first
game of the series by the Mackmen, wants
another chance, but 1t is not likely that he
will get it, as Weilman and Davenport are
overdue and need the work.

| TIME Daily Pennsylvania, the official
through its editorial columns, advocates the
| changing of the student cheering sections
| at athletic contests on Franklin Field to
| the centre sections In either the North or
South stands, 1t is claimed that the stu
dent body demands such change, and
that through such an innovation the Ath-
etic Association would gain better support
and greater degree of confidence from the
undergraduate body.
There is no doubt of the fact that better
support and greater confidence Is needed
from the undergraduates. At the present
time there are nearly 1000 students matric-
uated at the University, yet the under
graduate membership in the Athletic Asso.
citation consists of less than 400. Evil
IDENTIFY, something is wrong, but that this
discouraging lack of student support is due
to the present location of the cheering sec.
tions seems unthinkable.
Present Sections
In the first place, the present sections
which are reserved for the students are
omst desirable for track meets, being at
the finish of both dashes, both hurdle races
and of the mile and two-mle runs and
broad jump. No better seat could be de-
sired for witnessing a baseball game than
one in the students cheering section
The only remaining objection would then
pertain to the seating at the football games.
seat in the cheering section costs the
holder of an athletic association member
ship book about 80 cents a game. He has
a good view of the field and is associated
with his friends; is excited by the action
and the cheering. 1t 1t possible that he
would be so small as to think of himself:
81 should be sitting in the middle of the
stands for my 30 cents. What right have
they to sell those seats for $2?" No fair
minded student on the campus. knowing
the difficulties under which the athletic as
sociation labors. would begrudge them the
opportunity of making that profit.
Move Impossible
Under the present condition of things
such move would be impossible. The
support accorded the association by such
change would not begin to make UP for
the loss which would occur through the de-
creased amount of high-priced seats which
would be for sale.
