''If Folwell does not turn out a win

own language. He wants to blame
nobody but himself, and he does not
want to shift the responsibility. We

coach this year. because we wanted
a man who has played, and coached
modern football, and who under
stands the game as it is now played
I'm getting Folwell we have been
very fortunate because he has shown
his capabilities as present day coach
and If he turns out a team at Penn
sylvania of the same caliber as the
teams he produced at w. & ]. think
we shall all be satisfied"

Cannot Compete This Year

New Haven, Conn, Feb. 1.-THE
executive committee of the Yale Ath-
letic Association decided yesterday
that the five athletes who withdrew
from intercollegiate competition last
Fan, for violating the summer base
ball rule. cannot represent Yale in
sports during the present college year.
This action bars Captain Milburn, of
the baseball team: Harry lie Gore, the
football and baseball star. and Will
liam Easton, Spencer Pummelly and
Robert Rhett, members of the varsity
nine.
A statement by the committee says
that the action was taken only after a
thorough consideration of all the facts
in the case and consultations with
officials of the university and with
representatives of other universities.
Although the five players violated the
rule unintentionally, the committee
says it sees no way to overlook the
explicit character OF the rule. The
decision does not impair the amateur
standing in athletics of the men in

Yale officials put the ban on sum-
mer baseball yesterday in refusing to
recommend the reinstatement of the
athletes who earned vacation money
last year. Rules were broken, accord
ing to a statement, and the punish
ment followed. The latter, while Sc
we're in keeping the athletes out of all
sports this year. permits them to hold
their former records.
The selection of Charley White to
referee the willard Moran fight has
brought a general expression of ap-
proval. His presence in the ring means
that the big fellows will have to put
forth their best efforts. There is no
reason to expect that either Willard
or Moran would simply box. Both
have regulations that must be looked
after. 1t may be 81 one-sided battle,
and for this reason the referee must
be q man who has the nerve to end 1t
when one man is getting all beat up.

Until his first fight with Coffey on

gagged in forty fights, twenty-five of
which were knockouts. These in
cluded his bouts with Luther Nc

For his fight with Coffey Moran re-
ceived $1,000 which he says is more
than he made out of all his fights pre-
vious to this. His share of the money
from the second Coffey bout was
$9,994. His share of the bout with

will be 100000 and 80 per cent. OF the

DIXIE ACADEMY
TO GIVE OPERA
Presentation of Robin Hood at b. A
c. on Tuesday Night Promises
TO be Something Good.

Unless the unfavorable conditions
of the weather and roads interfere,
lovers of music and the other accom-
plishments which enter into operate
productions will be afforded treat
in the presentation by the Dixie Acad-
envy next Tuesday night in the aud
itorium Of the b. A. C. of the piece
entitled "Robin Hood"
The leading role will be sung by
Miss Lille Ship, the noted soprano
of Salt Lake City, and the cast will
comprise not less than 60 voices, in
Guiding the chorus work.
The Dixie has been engaged for sew
eral weeks on the rehearsal of this
difficult piece, and feel that it is al
most time wasted to present it in one
town only, so have arranged to bring
it to Hurricane, Cedar City, Parowan,
and possibly go as far as Beaver with
it. 1t is being given for three nights
in St. George this week.
We feel certain that the production
will be something quite worth while,
and we trust that the condition of the
roads and the weather will not be
such as to interfere with their COM
ing.
The exchange of courtesies of this
kind is something of which we heart
lily approve, as all the towns and cities
of this southern part of the state are
confronted with the same problem in
the production of plays and operas
/ that of the excessive amount of labor
and expense attached with the put
ting on Of attractions proportioned to
the meagre returns from single pre-
sentation, or perhaps two or three
appearances at most, if the home town
only is considered. If we can ex-
change such exhibitions as are worth
while with several other towns, no
one will be the worse off, and there
will be more encouragement for en-
gaging in amusements of this kind,
and better variety of amusements
| afforded to break the monotony of the
constant dance.
The date announced at present is
| Tuesday evening, March 28th. We
hope to see a good turnout to greet
our Dixie friends on their appearance
here.

that District Attorney Mcdonald,

was violating the law and that all
who participated were subject to ar
rest and punishment.

fore Justice Dauwalder Wednesday

ants asked for time in which to pro-
cure an attorney. They were given
until Friday, the 18th, and the case
was set for hearing at / o'clock on

and Olson, asked to have the follow
ing witnesses summoned in his de-
Tense:
The Myton town council, the direc-
tors of the Myton opera house, C. b.
Cook, George Phillips, Stanley Petros.
The complaint lodged against Olson
the principal defendant alleges that
"the defendant did then and there I'M
lawfully, wilfully and feloneously en-
gagged in a "prize fight, ETC. Stokes
friends allege that the fight was not
"prize fight"-although the town
had been posted with placards an
nouncing in fiaring letters:
this is TO BE A REAL FIGHT
