Meeting
York, Jan. 20.—President George
[. Graham has not made any announce
lent relative to the date foT the sched
led meeting of the Tri-State League,
ut it is believed that it will be held
i Philadelphia the latter part of this
lonth or in February. Guy Mor

or York's re-entrance into the Tri-State
ircuit, stated! yesterday that he has
een in communication with Graham
or some time and believes that, when
he meeting is held this city will be pre
ared to ask for a franchise.
Several local business men, who have
een approached on the subject re
entlv, announce their willingness to
übscribe to stock in a company it is
roposed to form for the purpose of
ondueting a York club. Others are
arv of the proposition because of the
lack eye professional baseball received
ere last summer. Notwithstanding
his fact it is believed that sufficient
apital can be raised here to insure
(lunching a cluto, providing the proper
ten are placed ait the head of the
icvement and the policy of the league
hanged sufficiently to permit of a club
emaining self-sustaining.

RUSH. PRINCETON TRACK
MAN. 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.

Allentown Basketball Promoters After
Eastern League Franchise
Allentown, Pa., Jan. 20.—Negotia
tions are in progress between (Harry
Ziegenfuss, of this city, and Fred Eck
hardt, owner of the controlling interest
in the Jasper basketball clu'b, of the
Eastern League, for the transfer of the
team to Allentown.
Allentown has for two years been
trying to got an Eastern league fran
chise. Mr. Eckhardt is said to be will
ing to dispose of last year's champions,
now third in this season's race, be
cause Nonpareil Hall, in Kensington,
is too small.
Mr. Ziegenfuss, who is one of the
leading young business men of this citv,
is the Allentown Y. tM. C. A. director
in charge of basketball. It is thought

COffiPLETB REORGANIZATION
OF JUDICIARY PROPOSED
Definite Steps Taken lor Calling Con
stitutional Convention "to Modern-
Ice Present System of State Gov
ernment ''
Definite moves for holding a consti
tutional convention to modernize the
present system of State government
were announced at the Capitol last
night. 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.
