CALIFORNIA COACH
 PLEASED AT CHANGE
Andy smith Expresses Satisfaction Over the New Rules Formulated
 By Football Committee.

Chicago. April 1S.---Satisfaction over the new football rules, recently pro- mnlgated at the meeting of the rules committee in New York was expressed here last night by Andy smith. l'ni- versty Of California coach.
 "rhe new rule which will make it difficult to score the point after q touchdown is going 10 decide many hard fought games" smith said. T believe most teams will try the kick, and ] believe about one in five will be successful. Evenly matched elevcns will resort to the kick instead of the run or pass, If is mighty difficult to make five yards in one down when close to an opp6nents goal line"
 Smith said he liked the rule against clipping declaring that it is a bad play and should be legislated against. None of the changes he said will have any serious bearing on the game as IL has been played in recent years.

MAY USE SIGNALS
Under Proposed Plan Spectators Will Be Able to Know How Yale and Harvard Crews Arc Progressing.

Cambridge. Mass. April 13.-Pro- posals for signals intended to make it possible for all spectators of the Yale Harvard boat race on the Thames river this year to know how the crews stand at each half mile are now under consideration.
 Major Fred w. Moore. graduate treasurer of athletics at Harvard, said the suggestions offered by him at q meeting in New Haven earlier this week included the following
 Raise square red flag on the ref erees boat at each half mile is Harv- if Yale is leading.
 If less than length separates the contesting crews. raise a large white ball. If more than length separates the crews, raise one black ball for each length.
 Few spectators on the observation trains have been able to gauge ac- curately the relative positions of the eights because of deceptive angles. Previous systems of signaling have failed.
 Tentative plans for the Harvard Yale regatta call for forenoon contests on June 23 between the rival fresh man and the second varsity eights to be rowed down stream over the upper end of the course. Both races are at two miles. The scheduled starting is at 10 a. m.
 The varsity race will be rowed up stream, starting at 5:30 o'clock.

 Since Japanese began to grow pearls arudcially, there has been much discussion as to whether these new pearls would affect the value of the accidentally grown pearls. The only difference would appear to be in the pearl seed, or grain of sand and now 1t is claimed by Dr. Bou. tan that even this difference cannot be detected.
 The statement Of Dr. Boutan is catcgoric: If I did not have cer, tifcate oI origin when sections ol pearls were shown me, pearls cut into sections for testing purposes, would not be able to say which pearl is artificial"

Wisconsin Founder Followed the Water Route to Discovery

Green Bay.-Jean Nicolet, the ad- venturOus Norman, who discovered Wisconsin and founded what is now the city of Green Bay, in 1884, made the trip from Quebec to Green Bay over the proejcted Great Lakes-st. Lawrence waterway route.
 Just fourteen years after the Pill grims landed in Plymouth, Nicolet with seven Huron Indian savages, started the treacherous trip in ca noes, from the Canadian city; came down the St. Lawrence river; cross ed lakes Ontario and Erie, followed the coast line of Lake Huron until they reached Lake Michigan which they crossed and arrived at Red Banks on the shore of Green Bay, in 1884. He made the l,OOO-miIe trip as an emissary of Governor Cham plain of New France, which is now Canada. After spending 10 years isolated from the lest of the world in Indian camps fitting himself for the expedition.
 Nicolets companions were sent in- to the camps of tue Winnebago's s with the announcement that the "manitouirnion" Or "a wonderful man" was coming. As he stepped ashore he fired a musket which sent women and children running into L air tents fearing the God of Thunder" To him goes the glory of being the first white man to sail that section which IS now destined to become the greatest waterway ever attempted.
 Red Banks, where Nicole. and his helpers landed, is a clay blum stand ing about so feet aoove the water of Green Bay. A nuge boulder to which a bronze tablet is attached commentaries its discovery.
 This section is now a conventional summer resort lined with private cot tugos. Archaeologisrs still find relics believed to have belonged to the Winnebago and Portawatomie Indi- an tribe which once inhabited this region.
