CHICAGO HE|RESS
 MAY CHANCE MIND
Speculation Hints Mccormick Marriage to Swiss May Not Occur

Chicago, May 26-Speculations over the result of l7 year old Mathilde McCormick's engagement to Max Oser. Swiss riding master, was re- newed today following the appoint ment Of her father, Harold F. McCor- mick, head of the International liar vester Co.,, as her guardian. Mir. Mo- Cormick was made his daughters le- gal guardian upon her own petition in a brief court action yesterday after noon at which only an attorney was present.
 Immediately the question arose as to whether Miss Mccormick made the move to provide an easy way out of the engagement to the Swiss horse man or whether the court action was taken to hasten the marriage. Neith- CT Miss Mccormick nor her father could be reached for statement.
 Swiss laws requires a girl of Miss McCormick's age to obtain the con- sent of her parents or guardian to marry.
 It was pointed out that if Miss Me- Cormick wishes to cancel her en- gagement to Oser she needs only to have her father refuse his consent On the other hand if Miss Mathilde wishes an early marriage she must have a guardian who will approve it.
 When MT. and Mrs. Mccormick were divorced each of the three chill dren. Fowler, Muriel and Mathilde, was given the choice of residing with father or mother, the two older ones choosing the father.

YALE NEWS STANDS
 BACK OF CORDERRY
Approves Changing From English
 to American Stroke

New Haven, May 28.--The change last night came so unexpectedly that opinion today had scarcely crystalized d as to the effect 1t will have on row ing affairs during the interval from now until Harvard is met on the Thames river June 23. The Yale News viewing the situation today from the undergraduate standpoint, said:
 "The rowing committee has evident ly come to realization that the exaggerated swing which has hitherto characterized the Yale stroke is not satisfactory and has decided to use the shorter, quicker pull of the American stroke. To supervise such transition at the present time George Corderry Is unusually well qualified. Not only does he under stand the English swing but he is a thorough master of the Belgian stroke. which is practically identical with the American stroke. Hence he will be able more easily to instruct his charges in the new method than could strange coach ignorant of the dis carded stroke. Furthermore, he will have full four weeks in which to institute his system before the Har- yard regatta"
 The News says that George Cor derry will have a trying task to per form, but "the man who coached a crew to the worlds championship ir the Olympic Games of 1912 should be fully capable of assuming such re- sponsibility. His goal is to beat liar yard. As he strives towards this purpose Yale, filled with new hope and confidence stands back of him tc man."
