ped at. length at a meeting of the
31arrisburg Track Athletic committee
3i<-ld in the Union Trust building Inst

usual. The grammar school meet will
"be held Thursday, June 4. A resolu
tion was passed cutting out the five
mile marathons in all track meets in
Jlarrisburg, held under the jurisdiction

Owing to the lack of time to per
mit the board of control of the State

■the committee last night gave notice
that they would follow the new rules
ws far as possible but that in the fu
ture track athletics would be under
• ontrol of the State body.
In accordance with the recent
Change in intercollegiate rules and
following those adopted by the A. A.
V., there will be five places for points
this year. Winners in each event will
ecore five points; second, four; third,
three; fourth, two; and fifth, one.
Only three medals will be awarded in
each event.
Resolutions were adopted express
ing regrets oil the death of the late
John Y. Boyd, a former member. The
resignation of George \Y. Kehr as sec
retary was accepted and George Hill
was elected to succeed the retiring
official who lias been a faithful worker
fbr many years. M. Harvey Taylor,
superintendent of parks and public
property, was elected a member of
the committee. Instructions were
given the secretary to send out en
tries for the high school meet next
■week.
"There's no age limit to-day.
and there's no indoor exer
cise so beneficial as the mod
ern dances."
And here is the correct
equipment for the man.
Full dress suits, exactly
right, $35.
Tuxedo S3O.
Evening waistcoats $2.50 to
$7.50.

Special to The Telegraph
| New York, March 28.—Robert Fltz- J

! champion of the world, was knocked
(out yesterday by the appellate divis-!
ion, which aiflrmed a recent order ot'l
I Supreme Court Justice Seabury, for- j
i bidding the ex-champion to box in this
State.
I Justice Seabury upheld the New

| which has jurisdiction over the ring, i
I and which had served notice upon the j
Atlantic Garden Athletic Club that it i
must not permit Fitzsimmons t# par-j
jtlcipate in a ten-round bout with "Sol

This action was taken by the e.om-i
j mission because the ex-champion i.sj
i now more than 50 years of age, and ■
I that is the age which it had previously j
j decided upon as the limit. George i
! Norton, Fitzsimmons' lawyer, says!
j that he will take the case to the court'
