wonderfully. My work obliges me to do

Motion Pictures One of
China's Greatest Needs

DR.. John J. Mullowney of the State
Department of Health has just re-
ceived a letter from his friend, Tong
Shing Kow, who greatly de-plores
the death Of General Hwang
FIsing and is gratifled to refute the
story of the distinguished Chinaman's
assassination. Mr.. Tong states in his
letter to DR.. Mullowney that General
Hwang was accorded the greatest
honors, the president of the Republic
having issued mandate ordering the
flags at half mast throughout China.
He was buried in the national ceme-
terry and q bronze statue was ordered
erected to his memory.
Mr.. Tong speaks of many import
ant enterprises which We're under way
in connection with the dead general
and which will now have to be held in
abeyance until he can return to China.
He says: There is one project which
1 sincerely hate to have delayed in it's
and that is the mo-
ton pictures for China. The more I
study the possibilities of the motion
pictures, the more 1 am convinced of
China's great need in this respect"

Army's Final Big Drive
Prior to Saturday Contest

West Point, n. Y, NoC FL = The
final big drive for the Navy contest is
now in full swing in the Army's camp.
The soldiers resumed their gridiron
work yesterday afternoon, going
through two hours of hard, grinding
maneuvering, with the coaches push
ing all hands to the limit. All varsity
men were in their positions, except
Vidal.
The Cadets star halfback was in the
Springfield game Saturday longer than
any of the other varsity men and the
mentors permitted him to rest to-day.
His place behind the line went to
Ford, who has been shifting back and
forth for a fortnight between the
backfield and wings Oliphant and

hardt at quarter.

of quarters to-day. A suitable sub
stitute for Gerhardt is being sought
from among Kilburn, johnson, Muir
rill and Mcneil. Stencil, who has
been guiding the Cullum Hall eleven,
from which the Army recruits its ma
terial for the big squad, was taken
over to the varsity to-day. He, too,
was tried at quarter. MurrilPs poor
work last week makes it uncertain
as to who will go in if Gerhardt Is un-
able to play throughout the game,

Navy Has Secret Practice;
Will Keep Busy Two Days

Annapolis, Nd, Nov. 21. - Under
Lieutenant Ingram, the Naval Acad-
emy squad began Its final preparations
for the army game yesterday. Prac-
dce was secret, except for members
of the Navy contingent, and practical
ly the whole regiment of Midshipmen
was present, the Navy lads encourag-
ing the team by yells and songs. This
Will be continued during the week,
The Midshipmen will practice here
to-day and Wednesday afternoons and
Thursday morning, and will have an
opportunity of working out on the
Polo Grounds on Friday and perhaps
Saturday morning.
1t is definitely decided that barring
accident or some other unexpected de-
velopment the backfleld, which will
commence Saturdays game will be:
Quarterback, Wbelchel: halfbacks,
Perry and Ingram; fulIback, Roberts.
All are members of the new fourth
class and only Roberts. who played at
Colgate, has had doubt that each
member of the quartet possesses much
football ability. but one of the dangers
which the Navy will have to face is
that the youngsters may loose their
heads,
The officials of the service game will
be, Referee Lungford, Trinity; umpire.

Three big games Saturday, Tech VS..
Steelton, Harvard VS.. Yale and Army
VS.. Navy. The game in this city will
decide the triangle contest. Tech has
won from Steelton,. score IA to 0, and
the Central games resulted 0 to and
36 to 0 for Steelton.
The proposition for a third league
looks good to baseball fans. 1t may
not come this year. There is also a
probability that the International
League may undergo a shake-up and
be placed on a major league basis.
Altoona High will be in the field
next year with a football eleven. For
eight years there have been no scho-
lastic games in Altoona. With the
reurn of the Mountain City boys to the
gridiron game Harrisburg elevens will
have chance for new games.
AS was expected, Tech has broken
off athletic relationship with Williams
port High. Central took similar ac-
ton two years ago. 1t is said that
Williamsport wanted to get into the
Pennsylvania Interscholastic League
this season. While the action of Tech
nical High athletic officials will re-
ceive q strong endorsement, it is the
belief that Williamsport should have
had q chance to be heard. 1t is also
the belief that, having known of the
treatment accorded both Central and
Steelton High, the Tech officials should

American League Meeting;
to Consider Demands

Chicago, ILL.,, Nov. 81. - Ban john
son, president of the American League,
announced yesterday that the annual
meeting of the league will be held at
Hotel Lasalle in Chicago on December
12.
One of the chief topics of discussion
at the meeting will be the demands
made by the Players Fraternity. The
players are said to have banded them
selves firmly together TO prevent any
thing like the cuts in salaries that are
predicted with the demise of the Fed
eral League. Several magnates have
announced their intentions of taking
generous slice out of the salaries OF
players whose wartime contracts
expire this year. There are only about
25 players in both leagues who hold
contracts for 1917. The others Will
refuse to sign new contracts, lis said,
unless the fraternity is granted it's re-
quest for q new form of contract.

SEASON RECORDS
Will Permit Professionals to
Act With Board of
Managers

New York, Nov. II. - One of the
oldest things that has happened in the
annals of the Amateur Athletic Union
took place yesterday at the annual
meetings of the organization in the As
tor Hotel, when the delegates decided
that 1t was all right to have profess
sionals on the board of managers of
the body which controls amateur
sports in this country. Some of the
Leading lights of the A. a. u. can
hardly be classed as Simon Pure"
and there was an element in the asso-
citation which wanted to see them put
under the ban.
one of the prominent members in
the Metropolitan district who would
have gone by the board would have
been Herman Obertubessing, the han
dicapper of this association, for he
gets ten cents for every man whose
handicap he makes. The committee
on the revision of the constitution pro-
posed that none other than an anna
teur should sit in the councils, but
the delegates voted down the amend
ment. OF course, those on the outside
looking in may laugh at the fact that
the professionals are allowed to work
the destinies of the amateurs who are
disqualified if they run in a novice
meet twice.
Approve New Record

ably upon by the body was that made
by Ted" Meredith, former captain of
the Penn track team, who created a
new intercollegiate 440-yard time last
Spring of AZ 2-5 seconds. Binga Dis
mond, of Chicago, was credited with
the same mark later. but this was dis
allowed because the track was found
to have been short.
Bob Simpsons record of IA 3-5 sec
onds for the 120-yard high hurdles
made by the University of Missouri
hurdler, was accepted, as was the two
mile indoor walking mark of George
III. Goulding, of Toronto, 13 minutes
and 81 seconds.
The new fifteen-miles walking mark
of 2.06&, made by Edward Rense at
Celtic Park. New York. was rejected
on account of Indifferent timing. Dave
Caldwell, Boston Athletic Ass ociation,
who was credited with 1.13 1-5 for 600
yards, at Newark, N. j., will not have
his mark accepted because there was
no border around the track.
The committee also rejected the
time of "a 2-5 seconds for a 220-yard
low hurdle around a turn made by
Fred w. Kelly, Los Angeles, as no en-
try blanks or programs We're printed
in keeping with laws governing the

the boards refusal to reverse the Cen

that Marshalltown. also a contender
for the pennant, would be declared the
winner. The action, it was explained
was in the nature of recommenda-
ton, the final decision being left to
the association officials. The Central
Association, it was stated, threw out
certain games won by Muscatine in
which it was alleged the club used
so-called veteran" players, players
who should be on teams of higher
