 No one has yet seen great, un- broken ice floes in that sea during summer the letter said. Wilkins believes it will not even be neces- sary to rise in the leads" danger ous places which wind closes like jaws.
 He says floes always have quiet air openings in their interiors and but few miles apart.
 There will be a telescoping con- ing tower capable of thrusting up- ward through 10 feet of pack ice. There will be a new kind of peril scope capable of boring upward through 50 feet of ice to get air for men and batteries.
 There will be an air lock in the subs bottom for divers to step out into the half-mile or more depth of water believed to cover the polar bottom. These divers will climb the subs side by ladder, equipped with underwater lamps for exploring and in emergency with explosives to be fastened beneath the ice and set off from a distance with wires.

Braves May Swap Vet

InfieIder-
BuUnifcd Press

IN tntffd Press
NEW YORK, April 10.-Burleigh
Grimes, veteran National League
spitbaIl pitcher, today joined the
Boston Braves squad but kept his
trunk packed in anticipation OF
further travelling.
Grimes was traded to Boston
Wednesday night by the Pittsburgh
Pirates for Percy Lee Jones, south
paw pitcher, and reported large
cash consideration. 1t is believed
he will go to another National
League club in q three cornered
deal if an infielder and a catcher
desired by Manager Bill McKechnie
can be secured.
The Chicago Cubs, st. Louis
Cardinals and Cincinnati Reds are
to have attempted to pur-
chase Grimes from Pittsburgh and
it is probable that the 37-year-old
right handler will open the 1880
season with one of these clubs.
Grimes refused to join the Pirates
at training camp this spring when
his demand for a $4,000 salary or
a two-year contract at $4,000 per
season was refused. Pittsburgh
officials offered him a contract
calling for $17500, the same salary
he received last season.

146 FIoOdightS to Be Used in Experimental Western
League Game; Plan Is Elaborate.

was brought about by the work of
Lee Keyser, president of the club,
who attended many night football
games last fall, who reasoned that
if football can draw at night, so
can baseball.
Keyser rugged up an elaborate
food-lighting system which is ex-
pected to make the field as bright
as day. The system consists of 146
hoodlightS mounted in batteries on
90foot steel towers
Behind the grandstand, directly
back of home plate, are two of the
towers, each with a battery of thir-
teen projectors. Another tower is
located so as to throw its rays
across first base and another across
third base. Two other towers are
in strategic positions to illuminate
the outf1eId.
Two problems faced engineers in
the work, glare and shadow. The
former was solved by the height of
the towers. Shadows were averted
by riSs-crossing the beams. Spec
tators thus will be able to see the
longest of drives and highest of fly
balls at all times.

Dawson Is
Ousted by
Golf Heads
Popular Chicago Star TOO
Good Loses Amateur
Standing.
BY FRANK GETTY
United Press staff Correspondent

NEW YORK, April 10.-Johnny
Dawson Of Chicago today stands as
an example Of a young man who be-
came too good for his job.
Recognized generally as one OF
six best golfers in the world, the
popular young Chicagoan finds him
self not only barred from the north
south championships, in which he
already had shared the qualifying
medal, but deprived of his amateur
standing in all tournaments under
the Jurisdiction of the United States
Golf Association.
His case threatened for time to
become a cause celebre," but owing
to the youngsters inherent sports
manship it may be overlooked.
Dawson has been declared ineli-
gible because of his connection with
a nationally known sporting goods
house. He went to work for this
concern when he didn't know a pivot
from a caddy, but since that time
his game has improved to such an
extent that he is considered pro-
feSSional.
If Johnny had remained a dub the
question of his amateur standing
never would have been raised. This
much is admitted by H. H. Ramsay
president of the U. S. G. A,
chairman of. the tournament COM
mittee of that organization.
Dawson'S disbarment from the
north-South amateur championships
at Pinehrst was effected under con-
ditions rejecting little credit upon
those concerned. w. C. Fownes Jr.
of the U. S. G. A, himself COM
petitor in the tournament, was re-
Sponsible. FowneS advised Dawson
that a letter from Prescott Bush,
secretary of the parent organization
of golf in this country, stated the
Chicagoan was not an amateur.
Johnny promptly withdrew.
