Coaches, Athletic Chiefs
Meet at Chicago Banquet

Chicago.-Intercollegiate football, its
trials, its triumphs and its hopes,
passed in review when coaches and
athletic directors, ranging from coast
to coast. sat as guests of honor at
dinner given by the Commonwealth
club at the Morrison hotel, in a gath
ering that was perhaps the most nota-
BILE in the history of the game.
Ted Coy, the great Yale fullback of
years gone by, said:
Lets keep the game, our game,
free from this rotten professionalism.
Let's stop this making of stars, this
frenzied worship of the individual
players. Let's let those boys alone
until they have completed their college
careers. Let's not keep driving at
them, clarifying them"

December Wheat Scars to
1881 in Wild Market

Chicago.-A new season record was
set by December wheat when it
reached $1.781a in a day of wild trad

5N to 65s cents. The steady adj

ried the market up 1914 cents without
the semblance of break. May wheat
reached $1.783s.
The buying was precipitated by the
pessimistic crop reports from the
Argentine, where bad weather caused
great damage to the unharvested
crop.

the Labrador coast to meet the return
Ing explorer and to get the first inter
views with him.
In the party was one New York
correspondent who spent three days
framing a highly scientific and in
volved question which was designed,
so he thought, to bring out the exact
truth regarding Peary's achievement.
It will be remembered that the DIR.
Cook controversy was then waging
All the way up tire coast he was
insisting that he should have a
chance, without interruption, to fire
his broadside.
Pearys answer, he stated, would
inevitably have a direct bearing upon
the claims of DR.. Cook and would
show conclusively whether Peary had
really reached the Poe.
In body the newspaper men
boarded Peary's ship and met him.
After the first exchange of greetings
and congratulations the spokesman
for the interviewers cleared his throat
and said:
Commander Peary. this gentleman
here has very important question
to ask you.s
Peary turned aggressively upon the
New Yorker. His bushy eyebrows and
bushier mustache were bristling.
What do you want to known he
demanded briskIy
The New York newspaper man was
seized with confusion. He fumbled In
his pockets and produced cigarette.
What is 1t you want to ask meYs
repeated Peary sharply.
The correspondent swallowed hare:
Have you got match?" he In
Quired.
