L L boldly setting an example for the
other members of the Big Three. So
called. On the first day of the second
semester yesterday candidates for two
of the varsity sports were called out and
goody number Of students reported to
the respective coaches.
This is the first real action at Har-
ward, Princeton or Yale to revive ath-
letics on a formal basis, and 1t shows
without n bit of the well-known shadow
of doubt that tho Big Three will be in
the big swim Of intercollegiate sports

war began.
All athletic schedules at the three in
stitutions were Cancelled two years ago

on their way to the opening classes
the students were greeted with posters
on bulletin boards urging them to report
for the crew squad and the hockey team.
The latter sport Is major activity at
the Cambridge institution, and the play
ers who make the team are entitled to
the varsity letter. Hockey is a subst-
tute for basketball at Harvard.
Coach Haines had the rowing candi-
dates out at the boathouse on Charles
River, but they did not participate in
any work. Instead the graduate rowing
tutor spoke to them of the possibility
| of the revival of the sport on large
basis, and told them that work on the
indoor machines would be well under
way next week.
on Monday the call will be issued for
track athletics, and Coach Pooch Dono-
van will meet the candidates at Soldiers
Field. a board track has been erected
at the stadium and all the ''indoor"
training will be done outdoors, as is the
case at Franklin Field.

Hughie Duffy will be re-engaged to
coach the baseball team. Plans are
being laid for boxing and wrestling
this winter. it is expected that there
will be n great interest in these two
sports. especially among the students
who return from military and naval
camps.

 The medal, tthe first of its kind to be distributed in the United States during the war, will be about the size of a. half dollar and will have upon one side a reproduction of the United States Treasury building with the words Victory Liberty Loan" On the other side will appear the certih- cation of participation in the Vic tory Liberty Loan with a blank space for engraving the name of the re- cipient thereon.

SAYS OSBORN
 WENT TOO FAST
Witness Tells Coroner West. port Auto Fatality Due to
 Reckless Speed.

If George Osborn had not been driving at reckless speed, his auto mobile would not have overturned and killed him Thursday night, Jo- seph Winnick testified before Coroner Phelan today. He said Osborn's car was going at a rate of from 55 to 60 miles an hour when the accident hap pened.
 The witness declared he was in another car, which had stopped for repairs. He looked around and saw the Osborn machine approaching. There were two other automobiles go- ing toward Osborn and in order to avoid them Osborn steered suddenly to the right. In doing so his car wheels struck the trolley tracks, caus- ing the machine to overturn.
 Winnick said the tracks at this point, project about three inches above the surface of the road but he did not think, if Osborn had been driving more slowly, that his car would have turned over because of this projection. Other witnesses told about the same story as Winnick.
 Coroner Phelan will visit the scene of the fatality before making a find ing. Osborn had been employed as an automobile mechanic in this city.

 In connection with the League of sider the various amendments 70 .he leagues covenant winch have been proposed, the text of the amendment proposed by the Swiss delegation to the conference of Teurals was given out this morning. It reads:
 This covenant shall not be inter preted as containing anything con trary to the sovereignty of states ex- cept insofar as the state itself, by ad- herring to the covenant, shall consent and the covenant itself shall not in terfere with the internal affairs of any of it's members

CUT
 TO MINIMUM
Principle Is Recognized by Conference of Neu-
 trals.

Paris, Friday, March 21.---Delegate5 to the conference of neuftrals devoted time today to the discus sion of the article of the League of Nations Covenent which provides for coercive measures against state breaking relations with the League without submitting it's grievances to the executive body of the League. Amendne ents were prepared sttpulat- ing that force might be used only in case of necessity, that 1t might be brought to bear only after economic pressure had been insufficient, and that small states might decline to take warlike steps.
 Lord Robert Cecil, who presided, said that if small states were allowed to refrain from military action, the forces of other states should be given permission to pass over their territo- ries.
 Premier Venizelos of Greece de- clared incidentally during the discus sion that purely defensive alliances would be allowed under the League of Nations Covenent.
 The principle that ornaments should be reduced to a minimum was recog- nized by the conference.

It is held to be unnecessary for President Wilson to be in Washington when the call for such a special ses- sion is issued, for this may be Cabled from Paris in advance of his depart ure from France. Mir. Wilson, how ever, has reached no decision regard ing the question and is reserving the shaping of his course of action until he has a. more definite idea of the date Of his return to America
 The President is also keeping in touch with the development of senti- Iuent in the United States toward a League of Nations. If the situation appears to him to demand such ac- ton, 1t is not unlikely that shortly after his return from Europe he will make an extended speaking tour, pre- senting his view of the issue directly to the voters in the states who se sen ators are opposed to the ratification of the League plan.
 Washington, March 22.--It was said unofficiaIly at the White House to- day that President Wilson might re- turn to the United States by May 1, leaving Paris Immediately after reach ing an agreement on the principal features of the Peace Treaty, without waiting for the actual signing of the document
