peal the wide sled law, the report
being accepted with few scattering
"noes.'
The house by roll call provided
for salaries to be paid various en-
ployes. In two cases-the salaries
of pages and the desk reporter-were
different from the statutory pro-
vision. Rep. Larkin objected on the
ground that the assembly ought not
to violate the laws Of the state.
Pay of Employees.
Rep. Twichell declared the orig
inal provision regarding pay of
pages was met by cutting the num-
Der in half, and that the position of
desk reporter was not recognized in
the statutes, which provided for a
desk stenographers.
II don't believe we ought to
change the law and establish limit
for employees" Mr.. Twichell said,
because the Nonpartisan League
may be in control two or four years
and we don't want to limit them to
the number of employees we now
have-which is about IL less THAI
the Nonpartisans employed in the
house four years ago"
The bills introduced included one
by rep. Flom. decreasing the mile
age allowance, of county superinten-
dents from Is to 10 cents within a
county, and allowing actual railroad
fare in attending meetings called
by the state superintendent outside
the county, instead of 10 cents a
mile as at present. Another bill by
Red Trubshaw would permit cities,
upon petition of 10 per cent of the
electors and subsequent majority, to
levy tax to provide a fund tt pay
for musical concerts.
Follow House Rule.
The senate yesterday afternoon
followed the example of the house
in formulating a gentlemeRs agree
ment to permit senators who felt it
necessary to attend the convention
of the Tri-State Grain Growers as
ISOLATION in Fargo this week to do
so. Under the agreement no final
action will be taken on any measure
during the period Of the convention

should five of the senator's present
make objection.
Two bills were recommended for
passage by the senate judiciary COM
mittee. One of these is one of the
two bills introduced by Senator Whit
man of Grand Forks to permit for
eign consuls to act as administrators
of the estates Of deceased citizens of
their respective countries. It's COM
panion bill which provides for no.
tice to such consuls Of the filing of
wills for probate is being held in the
committee for further amendment.
The judiciary committee also recon-
mended for passage S. B. Is, put in
by Sen. Rusch of Fargo for the val
idation of mortgages in which the
postoffice address of the mortgage
was omitted.
Six bills were introduced in the
senate during the afternoon session.
Among these was one by Senator
Gross of Grant county which would
cut the maximum road levy which
may be made by counties from four
mills to two. This is made advis-
able in the opinion of Senator Gross
by the increase in assessed valua-
tions which has been made during
the last few years.
Of special interest to the hunters
Of the state ISIS. B. q; introduced
by Senator's Ployhar and Porter, by
request. 1t includes a number of
important provisions such as max
ing the closed season on deer ex-
tend throughout the year, allowing
the use of dogs as retrievers, and
prohibiting hunting or pursuing
wounded game in fields of standing
grain.
Two other bills were introduced
by Senator ployhar. One of them is
special measure to fit the needs of
eight or ten small towns in the
vicinity of Valley City which re-
ceive current over high tension
lines, and desire to purchase the
lines in question. The other per-
mits residents of city or village
to tax themselves up to one-half mill
for bnad concerts.
Blue Sky Bill In
Senator Stevens of Ramsey county
also introduced two bills. One puts
the law regarding the sale of min
ing stocks in the state in line with
the state blue sky law. The other
merely straightens out some techni-
calities regarding the filing of the

CONTROL FOR
SCHOOL SPORT

Chicago, Jan. 16.-Greater control
of athletics by the faculties of COL
leges and the elimination Of COM
mercialism from intercollegiate ath-
letics, was urged in report made
tonight by Dean Douglas Anderson
of Tulane university, to the Asso-
citation of American Colleges, in ses-
sion here. The report was made fol-
lowing Il survey Of a large number
of leading colleges and universities.
Among the leading abuses which
the committee discovered were COM
mercialism, excessive expenditures
OF money, scouting for athletes in
preparatory schools. too much news
paper publicity, gambling and the
over emphasis on the part of alumni
and the general public of the rela-
tive Importance of athletics" Dean
Anderson stated.
1.-The first step in eliminating these
abuses" declared Dean Anderson, sis
to give the faculty control not only
over the eligibility of players, en-
trance requirements and scholastic
training, but also over finances,
schedules and the employment of
coaches. Each coach would have the
standing of a full professor, under
the plan.
The average expenditure of SOU
thern colleges for athletics is $24,334
per year." the report said. "Our in
stitution last year spent $1O9,797 for
athletics. The great and ever in
creasing cost of conducting sports
is one of the gravest phases of the
problems. 1t exaggerates the rela-
tive Importance of athletics. It
should be the serious business of
each institution to reduce these ex-
cesslve costs. A suggestion has been
made that gate receipts be elimihat
ca and admission to games be made
strictly a matter of invitation"

EXPECT QUIET SESSION.

Prospects were for light session
of the house. of representatives dur
ing half of this week.
Because of the desire of several
members to attend the Tri-State
Grain Growers convention in Fargo,
leaders of the Independents and
Nonpartisans proposed to the house
that members be excused to attend
this, and that during their absence
no final action would be taken on
any measures lilo members object.
The house will not recess during the
three days-Jan. IA, IL and 16-but
will handle such business as it can
under the limitation.
