Athletic Rules Pro-
posed To Be
Changed
Amateur Athletic Union
Wants Alterations in the
Rules and is Taking
Measures to Bring Them
About.
By Henry L. Farrell


UNITED Press Staff Correspondent
NEW YORK, Nov. 19.-Even the
amateur athletes have been hit by
the high cost of living.
A star performer can't live any
more on SIS day. To insure three
square meals" a day, parlor car &C
conlmodations and good hotels for the
travelling stars, Justice Barlow S.
Weeks, head of the legislation COM
nlittee of the Amateur Athletic
Union, wants travelling expenses
raised to 81 day.
This is one of the changes in the
constitution that will be proposed by
the legislation committee at the an
nual meeting of the union in Bosto'
today.
Unless the traveller is a girl under
81 years of age who needs chaperon,
the expense account cannot include
fees for trainers, rubbers, massage
experts, neither can the traveller
bring along a friend or a relative at
the expense of the club, according tt
-re substitute clause cT-posc1.
The Pacific association of the A.
E. u proposes an amendment pro-
hibiting athletes of other countries
from competing in national champion
ship 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 thirty-four proposed
amendments in all. Among them are
an entire new set of handball rules
and various small changes in basket
ball, wrestling, boxing and swimming
rules.
A very important change suggested
would bar only the winners of big
r-collegiate events from competi-
ton in the Junior championship
classes. Some of the colleges COM
planned that they had suffered
through the existing regulation which
made ineligible members of their
teams who had won events in small
intercollegiate championships such as
the middlestates, the Newe England,
the South Atlantic and other similar
Intercollegiate championships.
The delegates will also be asked to
accept as members the Indiana Ath-
letic Association and the Niagara
Athletic Association, both of which
have been formed during the last
wear.

Having fixed his car he drove blithely
on. The wire gave out presently, and
he renewed it, twice, thrice, four or
five times, from the telegraph line
beside the road.
Meanwhile the trains of French
merchandise had begun arriving at
Szabadka. Official sanction was
necessary for the cars to proceed.
The frontier officials framed the
proper sort of telegram, and it was
duly countersigned and presented to
the operator. He reported that the
wire was mot working" So the
frontier officials decided to wait un-
til it began to work.
They waited two days, while more
and more trains drew into the con-
gested yards, Szabadka was cut off
from wire communication. Mails G
only once a week, and then only if
trains are running.
The telegraph officials finally de-
cided to send out a incorporating
party. The party returned after
another days delay with the an
nouncement that so many breaks had
been found that their supply of spare
wire had given out.
Meanwhile congestion in the yards
increased and the appeals from the
French convoyers, the American con-
voyers and the Roumanian merchants

DISTRIBUTION OF
COAL DURING THE
PRESENT FAMINE

The method by which the railroad
administration, acting for the govern
ment, will distribute coal during the
present emergency was announced
here yesterday by District Director
William Sproule with the appointment
of a district coal committee for ter
ritory within his jurisdiction which
embraces that portion of the country
south of Ashland, Ore, and west of
Ogden, Albuquerque and Ell Paso.
The committee includes representa-
tives of all large roads operating in
this district and has as it's chairman
L. F. Newton, of the United States
railroad administration. His head
quarters will be in the Southern Pa
cific Building in San Francisco.
The situation and the method to be
employed in the distribution of coal
was explained last night by Chairman
Newton as follows:
Cali carload shipments of coal now
in transit from mines to consignees,
whether retail yards, industries, or
others, have been confiscated and the
coal is now in the possession and I'M
der the control of the railroad adj
ministration. 1t is possible for con-
signees to insure delivery of ship
ments ordered from the mines if their
needs are sufficiently urgent to war
rant preference. 1t is essential that
original consignees and all receivers
of carload shipments of coal file their
applications with nearest railroad
agent of the line usually making de-
livery of their shipments.
eve are today furnishing all rail-
road agents with application blanks
to be filled out in detail by receivers
of coal setting forth full information
as to their requirements.
"The railroad with which the ap-
plication is filed is required to verify
the statements contained therin and
pass the applications to our commit
tee with suitable recommendations. 1t
will be our duty then to fill such of
these applications as we can from
district coal pool comprising all coal
on wheels now held at convenient
points of distribution together with
coal hereafter loaded at the mines.

Coal diverted for commercial uses
is to be paid for in accordance with
the fuel administration order of
January ID, 1918. Applicants must
give satisfactory assurance of finan-
cial responsibility and are required to
deposit sufficient security for any
coal furnished. Applicants must also
make definite written obligation to
pay shipper for the coal promptly up
on presentation of bill. Legal trans
portation charges including war taxes,
from mines to point of delivery to the
applicant will be collected on delivery
in usual way.
In placing orders for new ship
ments from the mines applications
should be made at the same time to
the local railroad agent for preferen-
tial delivery.
The daily morning oasis. [volume] (Nogales, Ariz.) 1917-1920, 1919-11-20

In administering this coal pool we
will be guided by the priority list es-
tablished by DIR. H. A. Garfield which
specifies that consumers rank as fol-
lows: (a) railroads, (b) army and
navy and federal government, (c)
state and county departments and in
situations, (d) public utilities, (e) re-
tail dealers, (f) manufacturing plants
on war industries boards preference
list, (g) manufacturing plants not on
such list, (h) jobbers, G) lake, Cd
tidewater.
Acting upon the recommendation
of the railroads with which the appli-
cation is filed, and having in mind
the location of available coal and the
amount on hand, we will direct the
roads to fill the applications with the
best possible advantage"

W ar Mothers In
Session Plan A
General Tree
Planting

WASHINGTON, Nov. 19.-(United
Press.)-The War Mothers in coop
GRAFTON with the American Forestry
Association, which is registering all
memorial trees in a national honor
roll, today completed plans for the
biggest memorial tree planting pro
gram ever undertaken in the United
States.
The Service Star Legion, of which
Mrs. Robert Carlton Morris Of Toledo
is the national president, is now plan
hing for the planting of thousands
of memorial trees through every
chapter in the country. This is the
organization made up of eleven or
CARNATIONS of women relatives of
men in the world war.
"Our second Thanksgiving Day
since peace came" says Charles
Lathrop Pack, president of the Amer
lean Forestry Association, "brings a
fine opportunity to plant and dedi-
cate memorial trees in honor of the
wars heroes. In the action of the
Service Star Legion there is the
greatest inspiration for these wa,
mothers know and feel the war as
perhaps 10 others did. Reports show
that tree planting associations are
being formed by teachers in many
states"
In it's instruction for December the
association points to the need of rare
for the trees during the winter. All
the weaker trees should be treated
with fertilizer by giving the top soil
we'll rotten manure and digging it in
lightly. Splitting of bolted trees will
be found as the colder days come and
the association will give instructions
as to handling. All trees marked in
the fall should be cut down and the
infested wood burned.

finally been restored and the official

blockade had become so complicated
that it will probably take a month to
put Szabadka back on normal basis.
