He Could Help Her Out.

A certain prominent movie star is
a cautious person. She had to hail a
taxicab one night last week to get
to the theater in time for the show,
and remembering the old saying, IAN

of cure, she said to, the driver:

Now, Mr.. M is a strong Repub-

talked of Republican prosperity and
Mrs. M of Democratic peace.
Eagerly on election day they both
watched the election reports. And as
one after the other came in Mrs.
M was visibly disappointed. But
she said nothing, and went quietly to
bed.

astonished, and says he never dreamed

gives the lie to all his protestations.
There is no serious objection to a
surprise party when the victim is

about hundred newspapers around

kitchen stove. There was nobody else
in the house. and we had no idea visi-

about eight o'clock, just when i
was thinking of going to bed, there
was knock at the front door. My

NAVY WILL ADOPT \
ELIGIBILITY CODE
Rules Expected to Conform to
Highest Standards Of Other
Leading Institutions.
ny HUGH n. RILEY.

ANNAPOLIS. March s.-rhose In au-
thorty In Athletics at the Naval Acs-
denny have reached a decision TO put In
tho eligibility OF members OF teams. In
conformity with the usual practice
among institutions OF the highest
standing. An official announcement
to this effect is expected within a
short time. and the new rules will
become effective for the first time m
connection with the football team
next fall. -
II has been determined that the two
most important rules OF inter-coliegi-
ate eligibility will be adopted in refer
ence TO the Naval Academy. These
are that no midshipman shall pay on
a representative team until he has
been in that status for a full year.
and that no player shall be eligible
who has played on a team OF collegs
rank for four years.
Other rules may be adopted. but
these are the ones upon which tho
greatest stress is laid. Their adop-
ton will remove any possible feeling
on the part OF other institutions that
the Naval Academy has an advantage.
Some weeks ago, the Naval Academy
issued an official statement through
Rear Admiral A. II. Scales, superin-
tendent OF the Academy, in which IL
was made plain that the Academy was
willing to conform to the rules Of
other colleges. A communication was
sent to the Military Academy suggest
ing that IL take the same course. but
the suggestion was not accepted. Gem
eral Macarthur. superintendent there,
stating that he considered that the
regulations for admission constituted
a sufficient test OF eligibility and that
he opposed Withdrawing any athletic
privilege from any student of the
Military Academy. A
The position will be taken by tho
Naval Academy as a matter of fair
ness toward the other institution with
which II contests. and with which IL
wishes to maintain athletic relations.
II Is recognized that complications
may arise which will interfere with
the relations with the Military Acad-
emy, but this cannot be helped. q
AS mt IN as these relations are
valued, those with all other institu-
tions cannot be jeopardized, and there
is a strong feeling that they VIII be

on the same basis as far as possible

1t will, of course, be possible for
the Naval Academy to keep its first-
year men out Of all games except
those against the Army team, and
play them in that contest IL IL wishes.
This will hardly be practicable. how
ever. as these players would lose all
the experience of the other games,
and would not be likely to strengthen
the team greatly IL used only in one
game.
There is no avoidance of the con-
clusion that the situation threatens
the close athletic relations of the two
service schools IL West Point does not
see its way clear to cooperate with
the Naval Academy and the other
Institutions with which 1t engages in
sports.

POLE VAULT EVENT.
The number of contestants for the
pole vault and high jump events was
left to the judgment OF the referee.
In the past the number has been linn
tied to six men from each college, but
this Is considered too many and as
making the events too long drawn
out. The delegates passed adversely
on the proposal to add the 44O-yard
hurdle race to the list of events. and
wego also against extending the mile
run to two miles, on the contention
II was toe exhausting.
This latter question will be given
more consideration as the executive
committee was empowered to 20 into
the matter. At the Olympic games in
Antwerp last summer the United
states made a poor showing in dis
tance running. That Improvement in
this direction Is planned was shown
in authorizing the executive commit
tee to consider adding a f1ve-miIe run
