LATHROP & SONS 28 Shetucket Street New York, Dec. 28—A resolution endorsing ical preparedness in the cause of national defense was adopted today by the National Collegiate asso- clation. It was a substitute for one R T ey L ittee composed A. Farr of Yale and George W. Ehler, of Madison, Wis. The res- olution follows: “Resolved, That this convwation calls upon all affiliated persons to give their entire’ support to the cause of the na- tional defense to the end that the na- tion shall be assured of immunity from invasion and that all members be urged to emphasize the necessity of physical preparedness on the part of each individual, Amateur Athlete Defined. An amateur athlete was decided by the convention to be *“one who par- ticipates in competitive physical sports only for the pleasure and the physical, mental, moral and social benefits di- rectly derived therefrom,” as suggest- ed by the Athletic Research society. The vote on this question was 24 to 1, 1. For the first time in the history of the assoclation delegates were present from all the districts today. They came from local conferences all over the United States, including the Rocky mountain country, the Pacific coast and the south, representing more than 200 colleges, demonstrating the na- tional character of the organization. Dean Le Baron R. Briggs of Har- vard, who presided, refused to accept another term as president of the as- sociation, and Major Palmer E. Pierce, war college, Washington, D, C., a for- mer president, was again elected to that office by a unanimous vote. Prof. Samuel W. Beyer, lowa State college, was elected vice president, and Frank ‘W. Nicholson, Wesleyan university, ‘was re-elected secretary-treasurer. The districts were increased from eight to nine, and the following representatives of these districts wer eelected as the executive committee: Prof. C. L. Maxcy, Williams col- lege; Prof. Erastus Palmer, College City of New York; R. T- Abercrombie, Winter brings an increase In FIRES.

Browne, Oregon Agricultural college. Compulsory Physical Training. Major Pierce, in his address on Col- lege Athletics as Related to National r eSS, in part: “Compulsory physical training should be introduced into all our institutions of 'learning. I mean by this not a course of training that is confined to any particular class in these institu- tions, nod to a certain specified num- ber of periods that may be covered in. a very short time, but a course that extends throughout the entire curricu- lum and is serious enough to be rated among the most important subjects taught. Here, in my opinion, is a very favorable field for the National Collegiate Athletic association, a field that can be controlled and made profit- able because it comes under the juris- diction of the faculties. “How necessary such a step has be- come was made very apparent to me at Plattsburgh last summer, where I had charge of 3,200 college students. The sight’those young men presented when stripped for work was, to use the expression of an army officer of very high rank, ‘pathetic, and spoke volumes of the startling inefficiency of the methods employed in our colleges to train the bodies of our students, if any are employed at all. That this side of the training of our young men has been very much neglected by those to whom their education has been en- trusted has long been known. That it had been neglected to the extent ex- emplified by the representatives com- ing under my observation at Platts- burgh was, however, a revelation. And yet these young men were drawn from institutions that rank athletically—if turning out successful teams be con- sidered a criterion—second to none. Football, Track, Basketball and Swi ming. Summarizing a joint report made by Chairman E. K. Hall, football rules making peace insist upon retaining Germany’s lost * ¢ colonies and Germany at the - | same time to evacuate all enemy ter- ritory now oceupied. In admitting today that no further communication had accompanied the German or the Austrian reply to the president’s note, officials stated flatly that such questions to this effect in “ ' the future would not be answered. Slight Difference in Notes. The official texts of the German and : the Austrian replies, received today, { varied slightly from each other and from the original cabled press trans- lation. Most of the differente, offi- cials thought, was in the warmer. more cordial tone of the official ver- slons. Differences between the two © replies were noted with interest. For . instance, the reply refers to the president’s note as calling for “the creation of bases for the foundation of a lasting peace,”” while the Aus- trian has it an “exchange of views for the "eventual establishment of peace.”” Germany Proposes Speedy Assembly Germany proposes “the speedy as- sembly on Teutral ground of delegates of the warring states,” and Austria proposes “that representatives of the belligerent powers convene at an ear- ly date at some place on neutral ground.” The most decided difference noted was in Austria’s ascribing to Presi- dent Wilson himself the view that it # Was necessary to postpone discussion ‘ of guarantees for a permanent peace. The Austrian reply “concurs with the president that only after the termi- nation of the present war will it be possible to undertake the great and desirable work of the prcvention of future wars.” The president's note said tha tthe United States would be glad -to co-operate fowards peace “when ®he war is over,” but did not specifically declare the two subjects c;:ld not be discussed at the same . In the allled countries there is un- compromising hostility “to any plan not guaranteeing “reparation, restitu- tion and guarantees.” Text of Austrian Note. MANRKET WAS DEPRESSED Extreme Recessions Ran From Three to Ten Points. 28 —With interna- tional affairs—the German peace pro- posals and the Me: > again looming large on the financial horizon, the stock market today ex perienced another ‘depression in pric Speculative favorites, particularly those which suffered most in the re- cent severe reversals. were again sin- gled out by the shor: interest, pro- voking fresh liquidation. Extreme recessions ran from 3 to 10 points in these groups, with Here and there some feeble railies at the close. A few actual sains were scored in shares more or less exempt from professiona] pressure and rails for the most part yielded only mod- erately. The market difference between to- day’s operations and those of recent sessions was the smaller volume of offerings, total sales aggregating bare- ly ‘one million shares, against.the 2,- 000,000 to 3,000,000 share turnover in the turbulent days of last week. Prices were heavy at the start, but made their greatest declines after the publication on Wall street news tick- ers of what purported to be a second note from Germany, which was re- garded as bearing adversely on the peace situation. Although this com- munication proved to be a delayed forecast of the Berlin note of the ear- 1y week, the market failed to recover except in the case of isolated special- ties. The sharp declines that follow- ed were concurrent with heavy sell- ing of Mexicans, causing renewed ap- prehensicn in that quarter. ‘War and semi-war stocks were again the center of the general move- ment which soon took in shares of all The text of the Austrian note, sent | descriptions.

Adverting to its declaration Hish. of the twelfth inst. in which it an- nounced its readiness to enter into peace negotiations, it now has the Mhonor to propose that representatives ' of, the belligerent powers convene at dn early date at some place on neu- . tral ground. “The imperial and royal govern- . ment llkewise concurs in_the opinion of the president that only after the « termination of the present war will it be. possible to undertake the great and desirable work of prevention of future wars. At an appropriate time it will be willlng to cooperate with the United States of America for the realization of this noble aim.” " Statements in the Austrian press, which have turned from hostllity to the ident’s note to expressions that he is allied with the central pow- e for the accomplishment of the e end, caused further embarrass- ment here today in the administra- tion’s attempt to dissoclate the iAmer- jean unication from central powers’ gote of six days before. Future Negotiations. Pregident Wilson, belleving that the peace discussions may go on for months, is looking forward to the most arduous and troubled work on foreign affairy that he has ever faced. This is the reason for his announced in- tention of seeing Secretary Lansing almost every day. They believe that in“the future negotiations there will be jmany delicate questions to settle ‘which can be handled only by personal conferences. nc:“’!;‘l‘lt is :-lidh:o realize that lure 1 peace nego- probably would be serious ver New York, Dec.

ALLOWS CLAIM OF NEW ORLEANS CLUB Claim of $1,629 Against Charles Frank Former Scout For Cleveland—Debt Contracted By Frank of a Personal Nature. X Cincinnati, O., Dec. 28.—The Nation- al Basebrll Commission today allow- ed a clazy made bv President A. J. Heinemann of the New Orleans base- hall - club against Charles Fgank, formerly employed as scout by the Cleveland club and now president of the At't nta club, for $1,629. Attorneys , represented Frank denied the jurisdic- tion of the commission in the case owing to the debt being of a person- al nature. The attorneys also claim- ed that Frank admitted having con- tracted the debt but that he had com- promised it for a lesser amount, ac- -cording to the cimmission’s finding. The commission ruled, however, that it had uniformly exercised jurisdiction n the adjustment of official oblications between parties connected with the major leagues. The finding then goes on to hold that the compromise was abrozated through the fact that one of its conditions was not fulfilled by Mr. Frank.
