HIGH SCHOOL IS TIGHTENING RULES
Students Leaving, Then Return-
 ing for Sports, Barred

What is believed to be the first step in a campaign to curb the prac- tice of some football players in the senior class who leave school after the season is over so that they will be able to return to school and take part in the games for the next sea son, will be taken by the administra- ton of the Senior High school this year. Unless the boy is in school at the end of the present semester, he will not receive A letter for par ticipation in the football games. Principal l.. r. Slade has ruled.
 Announcement of the new ruling was made today by Principal Slade. The date when players on the team will be awarded the "N B" mono gram will be changed from the usual time in December until the latter part Of January, lust previous 10 graduation. The members of the basketball team will also be given their letters at that time.
 The school authorities have tried 10 curb this abuse for some time. A few years ago a rule was made whereby a student who Hunks" in q semester previous 10 the June promotion will be ineligible to take part in athletics for the next semes- ter which would end in January. This would leave the boy out of foot ball and part of basketball. It was 1I r,IlaI that Stn11nf WO1Il1 have 10 be in school for 14 weeks before he could play In athletics. The purpose of htis ruling would be defeated. however if a boy left school after the football season and return toward the latter part of the spring term to be ready when tho i call for football candidates was sounded.
 Thus, if a member of this years | football team wishes 10 leave school so that he will be eligible for next years football season, he will not be given q letter for this years work, TWenty-threc mem bcrS of tn" squad will be awarded letters. of this number fl will be given red sweaters and two will be given white sweaters. The last named award is for participation in three sports.
 The list of awards follows: Clifford Bell. Ugo Bertoine. Frank Casale, John Dumin John Ericson, Michael Grip. Alden Hewett, William Kuhs Louis Landino, Alexander Ialoski Gunnard Nelson, Anthony Nevuls Arnold Reckert, John Reid Fred Saunders. James SCully. Edward Sowka. John Szymansky. Justin Cr- ban. Joseph Netrano, Fred I"hrer, Manager John Matthews and Eugene Brown. general manager of athletics. Of this number Bell. Bertoline, Casale. Dumin, Grip, Hewett knhs. Nelson, Reckert, Reid Szymanshy. Urban. Matthews and Brown are 10 receive red sweaters. Scully and Lam dino are to receive white sweaters.
 All these awards are given pend ing whether or not they stay in school.

"b|G BILL" FAVORS
 BOSTON WITH VISIT
ChicaSo's Belligerent Mayor
 Goes Sightseeing in Storm

Boston. Dec. lPl-"Hig Ril' Thompson. Chicago's mayor and King Georges bittcreSt foe swept into this city with a raw December gale, saw number of historic spots including his birthplace. unburden"d himself on Q great variety of sub iocts and then hoped aboard his special car for Washington.
 The scheduled purpose of his visit was an address before the Ameri- can association for the recognition of the Irish republic but that proved to be the least spectacular part of the program.
 Fewer than 1,500 persons heard Big Bill' deliver his speech in a. hall that has seated 12,000. The address was markedly at variance from the one he showed to news papermen before the meeting. The customary Thompson elocutionary Fireworks" were missing and, in stead, the mayor discussed such comparatively academic questions as foreign alliances, flood relief, inland waterways and war referenda.
 He made no mention Of his celc- brated text book controversy or Of many other matters with which he has been accustomed to eXpound to home constituencies.
 To reporters, however. he yenturod on broader fields but ncwspapermen found him reluctant to be specific concerning 3 number of issues.
 British propaganda. he thought. was inspired by a desire to "sell this nation for money to whoever can get iu' When reporters pressed him for a more explicit statement Of views he stood on Well. just that"
 He sides;epped entirely when asked about prohibition.
 The mayor greeted a welcoming delegation of city officials with an expansive smile and an unlighted cigar and when he emerged from his private car to be cheercd by q small and shivering group of men and women carrying Irish and American flags he was wearing a green suit.
 Then a tour Of the city was start ed but some difficulty developed when they undertook to find the Old North church, the first object Of their curiosity. The traffic officer leading the cavalcade dashed right by it and later had to stop to inquire 1 the way back.
 At Bunker Hill the mayor allowed himself surprised at the height of , the eminence.

w. William Lilliendahl was killed he was driving past the scene of the crime and saw q man running from the underbrush to jump into an au- tomobile and drive away. He posi- lively identified Willis Beach as that man. When Sanderson was called to the stand as the states star wit ness, he said that he was unable to identify Beach.
 Beach and Mrs. Margaret Lillien- dahl are charged with the murder.
 The affidavit now in the judges hands is said to offer the following explanation for the change of front.
 While Sanderson was in New York. it is said, after testifying for the grand jury, he was approached by stranger who bought an alum mum frying pan from him and then made friends" finally asking San dcrson. q married man, to a wild party
 Sanderson accepted the invitation and at the party met another man friend Of the frying pan purchaser. The next day Sanderson bade his new friends good bye and saw no more of them until the time he was called 10 the stand to repeat bis testimony against Beach.
 "Nifc Might Know"
 Then some heavy object was dropped on the floor in front of the defense counsel table. Sanderson looked down and saw an aluminium frying pan. one Of the sort that he sold. Raising his eyes he saw the two men Of the wild party" sitting beside the defense lawyers and in the affidavit those two men were said to be identified as defense in vestigators
 Sandorson said in the affidavit that as soon as he saw the frying pan and the two men he became afraid that if he testified against Beach the men would inform his wife of the wild pGrty.' As a result, he said, he changed his testimony complete ly and denied that he was able to identify Beach as the man he saw | near the scene Of the crime.
