v. new rule, s Rcnornuy roromiiinmr..
tb M. , soli ton of what has been, the
JmIpb Problem before the athletic
"S'-WrTwlN" which w 1U
hted out of existence at yesterday 8
I'l the athletic counr 1. fnrbmlo

Gh. effect of heepina n large pro
Stloa of the students' In all the pro
Clonal schools, especially flic inrdl
,1 Khool. where a degree ii required
J entrance, off IVnn's teams.
The w rule In effect permits nil
indents to tnke part In nthlctics, but
S, the athletic council power to rule
?n the ellg b llty of Individual athletes
rt.nVnmes arc played with Inst tu
lions having n degree rule such as l'enn
in just rejected.
Think Settlement Fair
Id a word, Pcnn from now on will,
n(et other colleges on their own
1 rrmind. Where the rival team is mndo
in of strictly undergraduate students,
Peon's team will contnin only undcr
naduates. Where the, rival team has
older men from the professional schools,
holders of degrees. Venn will play her
full itrength of older men.
"It seems to mo Doctor Pcnnlman
in fortunately arrived at what Is a
fair settlement of the whole matter,
tald Mr. Donaldson today.
"This new rule simply gives us our
choice of any men we wnnt until there
is question of ploying a strictly unrfcr
K mduate team. One of the Important
jspecU of tho new rule is in regard to
international nthletics. Suppose wo
want to compete with one of the great
English universities. It is hardly flr
to ak our undergraduate tennis, com
posed of very young men, to meet tenms
of seasoned athletes who arc graduate
itudents. It is conceivable that Bomo
of our own graduates, now Rhodes
tcholars at Oxford, might compete on
an English university team njnlimt our
bo.rs, who arc sevcrnl years younger
and tartly less experienced.
"As I rend it, the 'degree rule' was
almfil ut the importation of men who
ere good nthleteu yet had not played
their full term on their own collego
, teami. The fear seemed to bo that
ouch men would be induced to come tu
the University of Pennsylvania merely
to play on its tenms.' As I pointed out
In a letter to the Pennsylvaninn, tho
'degree rule' utterly failed In this pur
pose, becauso there wan nothing to
' rrevent bringing undergraduate stu
dents to Penn from other colleges be
cause of their athletic ability, '
"It wined to me thnt tho 'degree
rule' put n penalty on education, in
that uniicrsity degrees nro required of
ciaD.v of our professional students, yet
ie debar them from the pleasures and
benefits of plning on our teams.
"Doctor Pennimnn's new rule hap
pily olu,s nil these problem, nml nuts
athletics at Pcnn on a bnsis nt onco
democratic and fair to both its own
itudent body and the student bodies
of other institutions."
Expected Hitter Fight
Contrary to what was expected the
meeting, nt which the new rule was
adopted by n vote of 0 to It, was a quiet
one from nil angles. The decision on
the amendment was reached quickly
and other business taken up. It had
lien expected thnt a bitter light would
result, but the compromise) eliminated
thi.
The essential part of the new rule
follows :
"In arranging n game or sched
ule of comes with another Insti
tution, having the 'degree rule' or the
coi.egc rule, or wiiosc rules In any
ether particular differ from our own, tho
lalieralty council on nthletics shall
have power by a majority vote, if up
proied by the provost to determine the
eligibility of 'players 'representing
renn)lvanin in nnv team, with due
regard to the eligibility rules of such
ether im,tltuMou.
"This amendment to tnke effect on

In commenting on tho rule, Mr. Bell

Two inn. believed to he the ''hand

week, were busy In Washington nml
lliilllmorc Inst night, nnd were nr
rested after they shot and probnbly
fntnlly wounded n detective sergeant.
The men worked In the same manner
in both cities ns they did here. In each
ense handcuffing the store clerk to n
gas pipe nnd then leisurely looting tbc
cash register.
When nrrested the men denied know
ing each other and knowledge of the
Philadelphia robberies, the police say.
They gave their names ns William Ran
dall, twenty-eight years old, and Jo
seph Homer, twenty-three years old,
both of Toledo.
Their nrrest was brought nbout after
they entered the store of William (Jild
horn. 1223 PrnnsylvnYk uvenue,
Northeast, nnd after blndMw him to n

He started after them. DetcXtvc He
gennt Frank M. EllWtt, vSio wns
nearby, nttempted to Intercept tho men
and wns shot in the abdomen. His con
dition is critical.
Prior to the Washington robbery nnd
shooting, the men entered tho store of
John O. Crane. 1821 North Charles
street, Ilnltlmoro, the police sny, nnd,
nftcr hnnclntflmtt nnd gagging the clerk,
got nwny with SlfMl.
Baltimore police were notified nnd n
watch kept nn the trains for Philadel
phia, but tne men eluded capture by
going in the opposite direction nnd
staging the second robberr one hour and
n hnlf later.
In Philadelphia the same men arc
thought to have staged four robberies.
The same method wns used in nch case.
A hat Btorc at 21 South Fifty-second
street, was entered nnd robbed of S70.-15
nnd hats after tho men bound nnd
gagged Edward Mjers, the manager.
The Iletson hnt store, nt 4020 Lan
caster avenue, wns entered nnd money
nnd nats taken under tlie same plan.
At a toggery shon at 5000' German-
town avenue, the men were interrupted
while rilling the place following tho
trussing up of tlio clerk.
They Impersonated clerks nnd man
nged tto get two patrons in tho rear
room, where they locked them nnd then
