Pittsburgh, March 16.-Fans of this city and. in fact. all over the country were cast into gloom at the report that Hans Wagner. one of the most picturesque players in the national game, is about ready to quit. The big Dutchman is now in his forty-third year. Recently he had conference with President Barney Dreyfuss about his contract for the season, and he told the Pittsburgh magnate that he wanted to become a baseball scout and search through the minor leagues for new playing talent.
 Last season Wagner was visibly de- pressed, it is said, when he saw the passing of many of the old guard.

The intercollegiate football rules committee will meet at the Biltmore hotel In New York, tonight. Several minor changes may be made in the playing code. but nothing of rad ical nature will be done. Such are the indications, at any rate. The for ward pass will receive some attention. in all probability. Some coaches are in favor of limiting the pass to ter ritory behind the line of scrimmage, while others are in favor of establish ing zone similar to the 20-yard zone seven years ago. The majority of the changes in the rules will be correc- tive nature.

With good old army stew.
No more fixes, beer or highballs
When we've got an awful thirst.

No more feather ticks or pillows,
