tions in committees.
1t Is emphasized that the date Tor
the closing of the contest will de-
pend upon the adjournment of the
conference. Therefore. as the clos
ing Of the contest may extend beyond
February /. when the mid-year grad
uations will be held in the pubic
schools. contestants will be grouped
according to the classes they have at
tended during the present semester.
Consequently, If an eight grade pu--
pill, who is now in the Junior class Of
the contest is promoted to high
school, he will remain in the junior
class. If high school student is
graduated before the closing of the
contest he will submit his essay IN
the senior class.
The Star makes this ruling because
it would be manifestly unfair to
make an eighth grade pupil promoted
to high school submit his essay IN
the senior group after having pre-
pared it for the junior class: 1t
would be as equally unfair to debar
graduates from the high schools IN
February from submitting their com
positions after having prepared for
the writing of them fog several
months while in school.

+ CHICAGO, January 23.-A!though
opposed by the three railroad men,
bers of the United States Railroad
Labor Board. provision for time and a
half pay after nine hours of work
was retained in rules governing rail-
way clerks issued yesterday by the
board, which also authorized an
efght-hour day within a spread of
twelve hours. The new rules be-
come effective February 1:
The railroad members, in a dissent
ing opiniop. declared that punitive
overtime within ten hours was "un-
just. Unfair, unreasonable and bur-
dened' the carrier with an uneco-
homfcal condition."
"Split Trick" Permitted.
The new rules supplant the national
agreement of federal control. This
provided time and one-half pay over
eight hours, which the roads con-
tended was particularly burdensome
where only intermittent service was
required, but which extended over
longer period than eight hours. The
split trick" cited by the new rules
will remove this objection. 1t is
thought.
The railroad representatives on the
Labor Board favored straight time for
the ninth and tenth hours of work,
declaring that ten hours service was
usually required Of many station
employees coming under the clerks
rules and that these employees. were
formerly paid a monthly rate for all
services rendered. With shorter
day than ten hours, they said. the
carrier could not meet the demands
of the public with economy and
efficiency" Punitive pay for neces-
sary work, they added. was unjust
and unreasonable.
100000 Employees Affected.
About 100000 employees are affected.
Application of the new split trick rules
and elimination Of time and one half
pay for the ninth hour expected
to save the railroads millions OF dollars.
labor board statisticians estimating that
the amount would reach S15,0O0,0O0 an
nually. During the rule hearings. many
roads testified that baggagemen, train
announcers and other employees doing
entermittent work. many of them young
boys or aged men formerly paid
seventy-f1ve dollars a month. were re-
ceiying $175 to $500, due to operation
of the overtime rule. This overtime will
now be eliminated.
The eight hour day was retained in
principle. however. as were collective
bargaining and union recognition. The
new rules cover all points in clerical
working agreements not covered by
rules negotiated between individual
roads and their employees.
Time and one half pay now ap-
plies only to the tenth hour of work
or thereafter. ard to hours worked, if
held on duty more than two hours when
called for extra work. Sunday and holi-
day work will be paid at straight time,
except where the railroad agrees to do

new rule as to intermittent work.
It will now be possible for the rail-
roads to place responsible employees
at the smaller stations at all train
hours without the expense which
which has resulted in the closing OF
many stations and the handing of
others over to care takers and jani-
tors at some hours of the day.
Under the old national agreement
an employe received overtime pay
after expiration of eight hours from
the time he first went on duty, al
though he may have had several
hours Of idleness due 'to the fact
that there was no train service nor
any other duties to perform.
Charges that employees actually
farmed or performed other work for
themselves in such intervals heve
been one of the outstanding features
of the criticism leveled at railroad

paid overtime for the evening work

was, generally done.
Means Sweeping Changes.
The new rule will also allow the
railroads. at larger terminals where
!: the arrival and departure of trains is
punched. to employ baggagmen. train
announcers. gatemen. train and engine
crew callers and employees in similar
positions on split tricks instead OF
having to maintain two shifts.
The new code leaves the matter of
sick leave and vacations for en-
ployes up to the men and the man

employees. previous practice being

The board extended the time allowed
for investigation of complaints of
employees claiming to have been un-
jestly dismissed from service from
seven days to ten days. Under the
new rules meal period worked shall
be paid for at the pro rata rate.
These periods were formerly paid for
at time and one-half.
The new rules allow straight time
1Or the DAILY WORK period or en-
ployes travelling on company board
ing cars to assignments away from

the provision for payment of half

game today may regard themselves as
Fortunate in comparison with what

past. Balance in club, be it driver

A properly balanced weapon of the

all from champion to duffer, but Of
to get i.the feel" Of a club any for
ward step in this direction is hailed
with delight.
Ever since the game got its start
hundreds of years ago golfers until
recently have known little else save
the regulation wooden shafted club.
Where a good and seasoned piece of
hickory was obtained and the club
maker knew his business the chances

balanced, was the result. But why

something we'll nigh, mechanically

At present the steel shaft is loom

often one hears Of man who has
tried a few shots with a friends

he was able to get yards further than
with his own club which he had
learned to regard as peerless. When
that happens it generally endsAin the
surprised golfer discarding hia old
club for one as nearly like his friends
as it is possible to get.
Right there is where the chap
making change meets with an OBJ
stacle that has existed from the be-

der the able coaching of Howard
Jones, FORMER Yale athlete. completed
their schedule without a defeat. To-
wa defeated Notre Dame, one of the

/ from Illinois, which in turn defeated
Ohio State in the closing game. Re
! suit of this struggle, which was one
: Of the big surprises OF the western
football season, gave Iowa the undis-
puted championship.
Following the gridiron season, the
athletes went into training for the
major indoor activities. AS usual, .bas-
ketball created more interest than
any of the other indoor branches.
Like the football season. the winner,
which happened to be Purdue. was
not determined until the schedule was

trifle too long last winter:
Paul Prehn. we'll known middle

which won the Big Ten mat title.
Prehn taught his men how to, get be-

such a maner that they generally won
decisions. Speed also was helpful

been strong in wrestling ever since
Prehn took over the coaching depart
ment.
Outdoor honors also went to, Illinois.
