John McGraw has taken Eddie
Roush off the second team of
Giants and placed him or the first.
Roush had requested his transfer to
the seconds in order to get a full

turned over to the second team In
exchange for the veteran.
Walter johnson likes the way
Goslin, Barnes and West shape up
as his outfield. This arrangement
would leave Sam Rice, the veteran

to do its summer stuff.
Ty Cobb, who told Dan Howley
last winter that he would be on

about all. He was on his way to

a Brownie uniform and remained

given a great reception when he

The Pirates were jubilant today
over the showing of their two be-

in getting into shape the forepart

his coaching duties more than once
to catch for the Braves this year.
Yesterday Gowdy was behind the
platter for the full nine innings,

UNDER CHARGES

PHILADELPHIA, April 1o.-P
- Twenty three University OF
Pennsylvania students were under
arrest today on charge Of melting
to riot. In a general fight near
the dormitories police used their
night sticks. The students met
the charge with a barrage OF
stones and milk bottles.
All the reserves from city hall
and those from the West Phila-
delphia police districts were called
out to battle several hundred STU
dents.
I'VE hadn't had much fun for
a long time" one Of the arrested
students replied when asked what
had caused the disturbance.
Riot calls were sent out after
the students had gathered at 37th
and Spruce streets and assumed
control of the traffic lights. Owing
to the manner in which the lights
were operated traffic was soon in
a jam and accidents were narrow
ly averted.

Remains of Early Men and
Animals in Northeastern
Arizona to Be SaIvaged.
Nv the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
PHILADELPHIA, November 4.-The
University of Pennsylvania Museum and
the American Museum of Natural His
tory in New York will join forces to
salvage important remains Of early men
and extinct animals that have been dis
covered recently In Northeastern Arr
IONA, the university museum announced
yesterday.
DR.. J. Alden Mason. curator of the
American section at the university
museum, and DR.. BarIium Brown, cura-
tor of fossil reptiles at the Natural His
tory Museum, have completed arrange
rnents for the project.
Joint visit Planned.
DR.. Mason, who has been making i'm
portant archaeological Investigations in
the Southwest, will be joined by DR..
Brown In q few days. and they win pro-
coed to locality about 100 miles north
of Flagstaff, AriZ., where numerous
dinosaurs footprints have been uncov-
cred and where there is series Of I'M
explored cave dwellings believed to con-
tain relics of the earliest inhabitants Of
this continent.
It was pointed out by Horace H. F.
jayne, director of the university mu-
scum, that by combining the archeologi-
cal and archaeological work through a
Joint expedition the important Illus
trative material sought could be at
tanned at q big saving in expense and
equipment.
DR.. Brown will arrange to remove
large sections of the Sandstone in
which the gigantic footprints are i'm
pressed, so that they may be placed on
public view in the Natural History
Museum.
Millions Of Years Old.
The footprints of the dinosaurs, which
were huge land reptiles, were made mil
lions of years ago, probably IN the
JuraSSic period, according to biologists.
It is believed the tracks were made orig
inally in soft mud which, when 1t be-
came solidified, preserved the footprints
through the ages.
The cave dwellings are of a much
later date, but probably were used by
races which lived in America before the
Christian era. Because Of their mac
feasibility, DR.. Mason believes these
caves viii be found just as they were
left by the original inhabitants.

King George Dead,
Paris Radio Sends
Out Through Hoax
Attempt to Trace Phone
Call Fails, Despite
Careful Check.

PARIS, November 4.-Word that King
George Of England had died was broad
cast by Paris radio station last night
and not corrected until 10 minutes later,
when its information was found to have
been hoax.
The radio station received q phone
call purporting to be from q widely
known French news agency which
sometimes supplies It with news. The
speaker, after identifying" himself,
conveyed the false information that
King George had Just died.
The information was put on the ether
at once, one of the editors Of the news
agency being among the listeners. He
called his organization and asked de-
tails, only, of course, to receive a
blanket denial that any such report had
been put out. On the contrary, it was
noted, latest reports as to the Kings
health were highly optimistic.
Both the radio station and the news
agency instituted an investigation, but
ran up against q blank wall when the
telephone company was unable to trace
the call. 1t Is anxious to prosecute
the Inalefactor.
There have been several such hoaxes
recently, but all hitherto have failed
when a careful check was made of the
information conveyed. The most re-
cent occurred last week when inforn1a-
ton as to the composition of M. Tar
deus new cabinet was offered.
