That intrepid explorer, Walter, e.
Traprock, who dared the tropics of
the South Seas last year for his book,
"The Cruise of the Kawa," told an
audience of his friends and admirers
in the Town Hall last night how he
leaped from crevice to crevice in the
glaciers of the Arctic to get material
for his latest and greatest work, "My
Northern Exposure"
It was gathering that warmed the
authors heart, whenever he thought
OF the price Of admission, he said. DR..
Traprock's lecture was concerned
chiefly with why explorers leave home,
and he showed the answer in d bevy
Of lovely native ladies who, despite
their. whale-oil, bore remarkable re-

ACCOMPANYING DR.. Traprock on his

Lack of Blue Sky Law Makes

Ground for Wildcat Pro-

specsal Dispatch 10 rae 1'gpvNs


ALBANY, Oct. 20.---A wave Of stock
promotions to finance "New York State
mines" was attributed to-day BY DR.,
John M Clark, curator Of the State
Museum, to the failure Of the Legis-
lature to enact an effective blue-sky
law.
"There are no gold mines iii New
York State,o DR.. Clark declared In d
speech before the New York State Asso-
citation of Real Estate Boards. "There
aren't any platinum mines, silver mines
or vanadium mines, although lot Of
fake stock promoters are representing
the state as fertile field for mining
and getting the peoples money under
false pretenses. There are enough
suckers at large to make their activity
worth while, but the state should ex-
few dollars in his pocket. Every state
makes promoters show their proof Of
bona fide investment"
Wildcat promoters, DR.. Clark said,
while using this state as the bonanza
reao most Of their harvest Of investors
in Western and Middle Western states.

year." he said, displaying list Of the
shorn lambs. "Most Of them are from
Illinois. Just imagine it, they invested
sS7 600 in this project and all they got
back was s2,144. The promoters are
wise enough not to use the mails. They
do business strictly ON cash basis"
DR.. Clark related an incident in con-
neetion with another gold mine,
which WAS supposed to be located
somewhere in Essex County.
"The investors made it SO hot for
this promoter that he had 60 sdie,'" DR..
Clark declared Ellis body ostensibly
was placed in coffin and brought to
Albany. from where it was shipped to
years later the same promoter showed
up very much alive on the other side
of the mountains and he had another
project"
A Tall Tale from the Hills
Promoters are nothing daunted when
faced with proof of their misrepre-
sentation, the State Curator declared.
He told Of man who actually came
to his office with phial OF mercury
and Jar of sand.

he told DR.. Clark. II discovered the

But, he continued, the promoter left his
Office serenely, and as far as he knew
promoted the discovery with profit.
Right now there is company pro-
noting a platinum mine, which they
claim TO have discovered at Lowville,"
DR.. Clark said. "They have an assay

all the directions to McGregor. Robin

ment that he was punished because
he did not learn list Of nautical

than the latter had stated, and he said
that he called the sttints to o halt ON
the FIRST sign Of fatigue.
AS to the "asymptote," she most
severe OF the three physical exercises

ANNAPOLIS, Md, Oct. 2o.-- Midship-

gave his version Of the alleged hazing
OF William II. McGregor this afternoon.
He was the first witness after the

d likely to lose Albert A. Exen-

the Hilltop varsity elevens since
1914. The athletic board OF the
university will meet this morning
and, it Il believed, viii offer to
sign up Exendine with the under
standing that he will become q
member Of the law faculty. The

Exendine has lucrative legal

This decision of the faculty OF

.Exendine has. been assisted this
year by Dan .O'Connor, former star

the new ruling, these assistants

1sz2 football season that there are
dozens of universities looking for
new & coaches, and. as Exendine
ranks with the best. undoubtedly
he win not be long waiting Tor q
new berth.
The communication from the fac
ulty regarding the change In policy
follows:
.The successful establishment of
freshman athletics and the interest
manifested in nter-dormitory ath-
lettc contests indicate that there are
many students. who are desirous OF
eyailing themselves Of opportunities
for physical development.
eft 10 the wish Of the faculty to
encourage this Iaudable desire. Let
n, be established, therefore as a pol
ICY Of the university. that each
branch Of athletics be 50 conducted
that all students, even though they
may not be promising candidates
Tor varsity teams, be given every
ppsstbie facility for taking physical
exercise. .t.;
To carry ont this policy It seems
advisable that athletic coaches be
,engaeed for the entire school year
aod that as far as possible they
be elected from the teaching staff
Of the university.
