Officials Claim Winning Team
O.annot Be Had Without
Rule Violations
Special to The Telegraph
Carlisle, Pa., Dec. 1. Persistent
rumors to the effect that football will
be dropped as a sport at the Carlisle
Indian Sch'ool following the present
disastrous season were given partial
confirmation yesterday by Superinten
dent Llpps. He said the Indian Arrow I
would carry an account of the stand J
of the authoriUes on the matter.
He would, however, not give any i
Information of the character of the
statement, ilthough it is generally be
lieved that it will take the form of
an order stopping the Fall sport It
is believed the sport will be halted j
on the ground that a winning team'
cannot be conducted without violat- j
ing governmental regulations.
First Bad Season
The present season lias been one
of the worst in the history of the Red
and Gold team in some ways. The
aborigines have won but few games
of their schedule although in many
cases, as against Harvard, they out
played their opponents. Frequent
fumbling and various tactical errors
featured the year. It is reported al
so that there has been Internal dis
sension under the new management.
That Carlisle will not take favor
ably to the elimination of football is
generally believed. The Indian School
primarily through its football team
lias been one of the biggest adver
tisements the town lias had and the
school has been noted especially for
its athletic prowess.

Johnson-Willard Films

Washington, Dec. 1. Assistant At

reply to the appeal in the Jack Jolin
j son prizefight film case, in which the
constitutionality of the law of 1912
against the importation of prizefight
films for purpose of public exhibition
is supported.
The films were taken at the fight at
Havana last April between Jess Wil
lard and the negro champion, who
was worsted.
Tlie government argument holds
that even if the films imported should
not be used for public exhibition and
should be used only for private enjoy

used.

A CARTOONIST OP THE OLD
SCHOOL
Many years have passed since Joseph
Keppler, Sr., drew his lithographic car
toons for Puck, but he is still remem
bered. Eugene Zimmerman, who was
associated with him nearly a generation
ago. gives the following pen picture of
the artist, in the current number of
Cartoons Magazine:
"Keppler was rather an attractive
figure, with mustache and Imperial; a
soft hat which he often wore and a
cloak thrown over his shoulders gave
hlra the appearance of a master of the
old school. Gillam was tall and had
a scholarly stoop to his shoulders, with
head bent downward, thinking always
of ideas for cartoons. He was seldom
to be approached in his office, for the
door tender usually delivered a caller's
card, and unless he was a personal
friend, the answer woud come back
"not in," which Is not uncommon in
busy offices where everything is sup
posed to move on schedule time. Upon
being admitted, however, one found a
modest and most cordial gentleman,
with a beam of welcome that made one
feel immediately at ease.''

CHAMBERURGES
SPRINKLER SYSTEM
Commerce Body Urges Busi
nessmen to Protect Their
Property From Fire
The Harrisburg Chamber of Com
merce, following out its well-marked
path of constructive work, is making a
strenuous effort to induce the business
men and manufacturers generally to
follow In the footsteps of those pro
gressive ones who have taken means
to protect their own premises and
lower the fire risk in their neighbor
hood by installing the sprinkler sys
tem of fire prevention.
The danger of fire in congested dis
tricts particularly is ever present and
the sprinkler system, which is auto
matic and sends forth a deluge of
water that floods the room immedi
ately upon the fire touching any part
of the sprinkler connection, infinitely
diminishes the danger of a destructive
conflagration. Particularly is this so
when the sprinkler's work Is aided by
the protection of all elevator and air
shafts, floor and other openings, by
metal doors or wired glass. No mat
ter how fire proof a building may be,
there is always danger in a congested
district that the fire may come through
the open spaces such as windows and
completely gut the building, leaving
the walls untouched, as in the .Edison
plant.,which burned down several years
ago in East Orange.
The movement is widespread and
calculated to render all districts free
from the remotest possibility of fire.
With the above outlined system in
vogue a building is safe from itself
and constitutes a means of protection
to its neighbor. And the beauty of the
whole thing is that the cost of in
stallation is very shortly covered by
the decrease in the amount of the
premiums paid for fire Insurance.
