TO DIRECT FOOTBALL New Coach Did Not Appear on Gridiron While in College but Haa Since De veloped Good Teams for University School in Cleveland Princeton, N. J., Jan. 20. —Joton H. Rush, of Cleveland, 0., who was grad uated from Princeton in 1898, has been selected as the hea<l coach for Prince ton football, according to the announce ment made yesterday by the Athletic Board of Control, following the ratifi cation of the election by tlie Faculty Committee. Mr. Bush has accepted the position and will move to Princeton with his family in the near future and reside here the year round. This announcement settles the battle that has been waged by undergraduates and alumni for a permanent one-man coach, and is in accord with the plan announced after the Board of Control meeting in December. Mr. Rurfi will be given full power and responsibility, and will work in co-operation with the cap tain, to whom greater powers have been given than to any other recent Tiger football leader. These two will have an advisory committee, whom they can call on for advice. The now committee that has been appointed is one of the strongest that Princeton has ever had. Howard H. Henry, 'O4, is chairman, and the other members are Knox Tavlor, '95; William H. ("Big Bill") Edwards, '00; W. W. Roper, 'O2, and Ferdinand Eiberstadt, 'l3. The committee of five which was ap pointed in December to select a coa<>b made a careful survey of all the candi dates and only after lengthy discussion decided on Rush. For the past 13 years he has "been the director of athletics at the University School in Cleveland, where he has turned out well-coached teams that have made splendid records. Hoggsett, of Dartmouth; Barrett, of Cornell; Weatherhead, of Harvard, and •Scoviil, of Yale, all began their careers under his tutelage. He has had many other offers, but his alma mater was the only one that he considered. The name of ''Speedy" Rush is un known in Princeton football history, as he devoted his time to traofc, being one of the best sprinters who ever repre sented th'e Orange and Black. He holds the Princeton record of 9 4-5 seconds for the 100-yard dash, which he est»b lished in '9B, and he finished l second in the century and furlong at the In tereollegiates of '9S. He was prevent ed from participating in football, which he had played prior to coining to Princeton, by an injury wAicb, if ag gravated, the coaches feared might en danger his track ability. Before com ing to Princeton lie played football at CJrinnell College, la. He has kept in touch with the modern game through his work in training the school eleven, and the "Alumni Weekly" this week predicts success for him here. He will come to a united Princeton and everyone is anxious to help him. The schedule for next season was ap proved at the meeting Monday night, it contains eight games, Georgetown ap pearing on the list for the first time in several years. The Washingtonians will open the season, while Rutgers has been booked a week later. All of the games with the exception of the Yale contest will be played in the stadium, Harvard appearing on November 6. The com plete list follows: September 25, Georgetown; October 2, Rutgers: Oc tober 9, Syracuse; October 16, Lafa vette; October 23, Dartmouth; October 30, Williams; November 6. Harvard; November 13, Yale, at New Haven.

Within a fortnight Charles J. Roney, of Philadelphia, will present bills iu the House of Representatives to submit the call for a convention to the people and likewise provide for the elec tion of delegates. IMr. Roney has not completed the draft of the proposed legislation, "but is co-operating with prominent lawyers of Philadelphia in the preparation. While no announcement has ibeeu made of Governor Brumbaugh's sup port for a constitutional convention, it is understood that the Roney move will be backed by the new Governor, as its sponsor is a Vare floor leader in the House. j As now planned by Representative i Roney, two delegates will be elected in \ each Senatorial district, though this | may be changed to two from each Rep j resentative district. Under the law. j the new Constitution as adopted would | have to be approved by vote of the j people bel'oue going 'into effect. One of the chief purposes of the pro I posed constitutional convention, as out | lined by Mr. Roney, will be a complete reorganisation of the judiciary system. I As planned, the State would be divided '• fnto 16 districts for ommon pleas pro | ceedings, and the President Judges of i these jurisdictions would constitute a j new appellate court. This special body | would consider appeals from the lower ' courts, and it is contended that ' the i change will simplify rather than fur j ther complicate the legal system, through a more co-ordinate organiza -1 tion. I The plan caMs also for the abolish ment of local magistrates, at least in I the cities of the State. As furtiher proposed, the constitu ! tional convention will provide for home | rule for cities, as advocated by Dr. ! Brumbaugh, and permit the municipali- I ties to determine for themselves the ex i tent of their financial obligations. ! It is .likewise planned tn wipe out the : present provision i'or uniform taxation ; and grade levies for public purposes in {the future according to classes. It is likewise proposed to insert a direct principle into the Constitution lj provide for the most advanced type of democratic legislation ror choosing 1 piv'ilie officers, and to,give the extreme . latitude, when desired, in laws for elec tion. uniform primaries or (he like. The Constitution will, as planned, give more definite recognition to the office of the Attorney General as a defi nite department, and greatly enlarge j its scope. SEA MINES IN WARFARE The Result When a Vessel Strikes One of These Deadly Engines To merchantmen, '*o the smaller and i older warships—to .everything that i lloats, except the very highest and more recent products of the shipbuilder's art | —the mine presents the danger of com plete and almost instant annihilation. | The rigidity of the ship is in itself an ! element of* danger, for the water sur j rounding it is incompressible. ! If the v skin and frame could give | way without rupture nnd permit the | enormously expanding gases (2.000 j times tthe volume of the solid explosive) j to transmit their energy in such a way ! as simply to push the ship aside and ! thus find a way to the surface, the dam ! age might be slight. But this cannot be. There is no such elasticity available. And the expan sion is so nearly instantaneous that pushing the ship aside is physicially impossible. Therefore, the structure must break, releasing the gases first ! into the interior and then by Hues of lerst resistance finally up into the air. This action is completely instantan eous. It blows nfl hatch covers and deck plates, twists massive steel mem bers into unrecognizable shapes, spreads havoc broadcast. It trans | mutes a proud ship into a sinking ma3s ; of wreckage—a happy passenger saloon | into a shambles —carries mourning into i a hundred homes. Such is the effect of ' mines.—Sidney Graves Koon in I-.es i lie's. Literary Note "•I must confess that I don't under stand Henry James. His style is so in volved.
