NAVY OFFICER

PLES|OSAURUe
Describes Strange Monster
Sighted In Silhouette of
Patagonia Coast.

PHILADELPHIA, March H..
Philadelphia broke into the lin
light today In the hunt for tn
plesiosaurian monster In the terri
tory OF Chubut, near the Ande
mountains. In the wake Of report
from Buenos Aires OF an expedition
into the wilds to beard the plesio-
saur In his den an officer at the
navy yard tells of having seen an
animal similar In description to that
Of the soughtfor Mesozoic am
| phibian.
The officers experience, 1t IL be-
lieved. adds credence to the state
ment of Prof. Clement Onelli. d.
rector Of the Buenos Aires zooiosi-
cal Garden. that at least one Of the
animals. generally considered to ex-
list only In fossil form. 10 actually
alive In Patagonia.
The naval officer. Lieut.. Comdr.
o. Bevilaqua, commanding officer
of the u. 8. 8. Kaweah, now At
the Philadelphia navy yard, related
how he had sean what he believes
to be the strange animal sixteen
years ago while his ship then. the
Ward Liner Saratoga. lay In the
Straits Of Magellan. off the Pata-
tgonia coast.
Saw Iceberg Crash.
In part. he said: .
I'm June, 1905. we were bound
from New York to San Francisco:
| via the Straits of Magellan. and
anchored for the night in one Of
the numerous coves OF that region.
The vessel lay about 500 yards from
the land. The shore, ~ Ia general
in the vicinity, rose precipitously
from the waters edge to cliffs 100
feet In height.
II was on watch when We came to
anchor, and the deck was soon de.
serted except for q few whose duties
required their presence there. II
was about 3 o'clock In the afternoon.
and though late In the day for that
season and latitude. the visibility was
high and objects outlined themselves
against the gray sky in perfect de-
tail. As scanned the skyline shore
ward. q great ice-covefed boulder
crashed down the rocky steep and
into the sea with . terrific splash.
Hardly had II disappeared when

1T was silhouetted boldly against
the sky and its proportions made II
clearly discernible from the vessel.
When related the circumstance to
my shipmates, they ridiculed my re-
port. But I could never be con.
vinced that was the subject Of an
optical Illusion.
II have always believed that the
monster which appeared 10 viyidly to
me was q reality. Prof. Onelli's re-
port recalls the incident to my mind
as clearly As though II were yester-
day. and convinces me that the
monster I beheld on the cliff was
not an apparition. but a monster of
prehistoric species such as de-
scribed in the recent dispatches from
Buenos Aires"
Theories offered by scientists Of
natural history in this country that
the monster told OF In dispatches
from Buenos Aires was q huge turtle
or possibly a giant snake were dis.

FORMER COP
 SEEKS FUND
 FOR IRELAND

Hartford, Dec. 29 - Daniel Mo Auliffe, formerly a Hartford police man and now head of the Secret Ser vice of the Irish Free State, has been back in America since Monday. and is thought to have been sent to nego- tiate for the release to the Free State government of S5,000,000 on deposit in New Y York banks, relpr resenting the purchase by Irish republicans here of Irish bonds.
 McAuliffe left Hartford suddenly two years ago and was declared dis missed from the Police department. His brother. Thomas McAuliffe, now dead, was the first prohibition en- forcement officer in Connecticut, and he was under indictment in a liquor bribery case when Daniel McAulifre disappeared. It was expected that he would have been ali important wit ness in the prosecution of the dis missed prohibition officer.
 He arrived in America on the Ced- ric and reached Hartford Christmas night. It is said he had assurances from high sources in Washington that he would not be molested during his stay here.

guilty of such failures should be rele- gated promptly and exclusively to in- termunicipal contests until such time as they can give some assurance that they are entitled to once more par tEcipate in intercollegiate games
 ''Prosytlng, absence of the one year rule, the tramp coach who thinks only of the successful season and con- siders that he has no responsibility for the protection of the game or the good name of the institution whose team he is coaching, the scheduling of games with teams from institutions which make no pretense of maln- taining decent amateur sport stan dards are not questions of the rules committee, but they are questions which must bee onsidered and rightly answered if we are to maintain the good name of football.
 '"The responsibility for proper stan dards and policies in connection with the preparation for and conduct Of intercollegiate sports and for proper standards of play is in the last analy- sis squarely up to those who are re- sponsible for the academic adminiS- tration of the schools and colleges
 "The game itself is all right. It is in the outside influences that the dan ger lies. The rules committee stands ready to do it's part and the colleges, I am sure, are ready and anxious to do theirs but, it is only the close cooperation between the two that will assure the preservation of and in- tegrity in this wonderful sport"

GOLF POINTERS
 FOR FAIR SEX
By MURIEL c. WICKENDEN. Girl Golf Champion of England.

Turnbridge Wells. Eng, Dec. 29- The question has often been discussed ''Why are the Americans so much better at putting than the English ?' [ can only judge from what better and more experienced players than myself have had to say on the sub tect, and l should think the reason Is that the majority of American golfers, from the minute they take up golf, are used to putting on fairly slow and perfectly true greens, what ever course they happen to be play ing on, whereas no two English greens are alige. Obviously the climate is the main cause of the difference be- tween English and American greens as a whole. In England one never knows what the weather is going to be like from one day till the next, whereas in America one can prac- tically rely on it's keeping the same during the whole of the golhng sea- son. The grass seems much strong CT on American greens than English consequently they can mow them much closer without fear of them get ting worn out when played On con tinually The English golfer does not know what to expect on the greens the first time he plays on a course, and consequently he lacks the conf dence which is absolutely essential to become a good butter. From the beginning of my short golfng career there is one thing I have always said and always will say about putting and that is mo matter what style one has putting is merely a matter of confi- dence." If one is confident and takes care over the line of a putt there is nothing to prevent one be- coming a frst-class butter There is just one thing to De avoided ana that ds swaying the body. l do not think there is any one particular style .oI putting that is better than anothei. It is far better for a player to dis cover the stance that seems to suit her best and then stick to it.

New York, Dec. 29-Warning
 that ''outside infiuences'' were
 threatening the ''prestige and
 which the mere framing of rules
 could not avert, was contained
 in the annual report of the Amer

 Rules committee for 1922 filed
 with the National Collegiate Ath-
 letic Association yesterday. The
 report was read by F. K. Hall,
 of Dartmouth, who retains the
 chairmanship of the committee
 for another year.
 Interest in the contests Is SC widespread and so acute that both the players and the athletic auth ori- ties in the various colleges are under Q tremendous pressure to win,' the report said. Under these circum- stances the temptations are very great both on the field and off, to adopt practices or policies which are direct ly hostile to the best ideals of the game and amateur sport and which, if indulged generally, would speedily bring the game into disrepute."
