MANY CHANCES Nv
ATHLETIC RULES PROPOSED

peting in national championship events
This proposal was voted down last year
on the ground that American athletes
are not barred from the national events
in England, Sweden and Canada.
There are 81 proposed amendments
i'm all. Among them are an entire new
set Of handhall rules and various small
changes in basketball, wrestling, box
ing and swimming rules.
A very important change suggested
would bar only the winners OF big in
ter-eollegiate events from competition
in the junior championship classes.
Some Of the colleges complained that
they had suffered through the existing
regulation which made ineligible mem
bers Of their teams who had won events
in small intercollegiate championships,
such as the Middle states. the New
England, the South Atlantic and other
similar intercollegiate championships
The delegates will also be asked TO
accept as members the Indiana Athletic
Association and the Niagara Athlstic
Association, both Of which have been
formed during the last year.

The 1900 fans who saw the VIII
mington Hlgh-West Chester game,
agreed that it was one OF the cleanest
ana finest ever seen on local field.
Weather conditions were ideal all
over the East for gridiron contests Sat
urday. Particularly was this so Of
Wilmington. The drawback was that
some Of the fields were a little slippery
as an aftermath Of the rain last week.
Ghesrook showed that they were a
real football team when. after coming
out on the short end at the conclusion
Of the first half Of the game with
Clearileld at Harlan Field. they turned
around and walloped the visitors, 30-6.
one Of the queer things about this con-
test is that not a goal from touchdown
was kicked. II Chesrook h2d a kicker,
the team would be one Of the most for
midable independent teams in this sec
tion.
Captain Gray put up a fine exhibition
for the locals, he scoring four out OF
ChesrOOk's five touchdOwns. The rest
Of the team was in the game at all
stages.
II was. in. fact, a good day for VIII
mingtOn teams all around, for Parkside

He started in as Presiding Elder on
