ITHACA, N. Y. July 21.-Formal
approval by the faculty committee on

Cornell next fall, when football and

Graduate Manager Kent said that the
freshman rule would not be abolished.
and that teams would be made up
from the three upper classes.
Cornell's policy. he said, would be
to attempt to get large numbers OF
men engaged in athletics as exercises
and physical training and the univer-
sity will also turn out varsity teams.

DISTRICT ATTORNEY
TRIES CASE BY PHONE

Brighton, Col, Nov. 26.-With food
fuel and other commodities subjected
to intensive saving campaigns, "con-
servation" is the popular watch-word
in the Rocky Mountain region. The
latest plan to conserve" has result
ed in the first "court trial by wire" on
record.
Conservation of time. money, ener-
gy and fees" is what District Attorney
Samuel w. Johnson terms the new
wrinkle. Johnson's jurisdiction ex-
tends over several counties adjacent
to Denver. and he experiences consid-
erable difficulty in being present in
the various towns of the counties
when several cases are set for the
same day in different courts. So the
busy prosecutor decided to use the
telephone.
Sitting in his main headquarters in
Denver. with telephone receiver to
his ear, Johnson listened to counsel
for defense plead before Judge in the
local court here for the discharge Of
his client, woman charged with
"bootlegging." When Attorney MI
chael Waldrin had finished his case
for the defendant Johnson picked up
the transmitter and presented evil
dence over the wire of sufficient
weight to convict defendant, who was
fined 800 and costs.
Johnson declares his new method
of handling cases will also result in
the saving of much gasoline, as he
can avoid travelling from town to town
