To the contrary, they ‘Mean to help the litt!o fellows, Weeks issued the following state. ment: “The proposed amendments to the constitution and rules whigh have been sent out to the delegates to the }@nnual meeting of the Amateur Ath- letic Union of the United States, which is to be held at the Waldart- Astoria Hotel on Monday, Nov, 16, should not be considered as any ine | dication that all of the legisiation Proposed will be adopter “They were simply promulgated in | proper legal form so that discussion \upon them may be had ut the meet- {ing, and there need be no fear that ‘any legislation will be adopted, lther jto the detriment of the smalicr clube ‘or to affect in any way the aay j amateur character of the | which the Amateur Athletic Ayalon claims jurisdiction.” For many years Justice Weeks and the late James E.

He was always the: same good- natured and kindly darky.” Tears rolled down Davie: cheeks when he told of the last days of Jack- son. “Ho was without money when he fought Jeffries, but all he received for taking a terrific beating was about $700, and he used this to get back to Australia, his native home, to die.

Brown, in fact, causes the varsity a great deal of trouble every day with his gliding runs through a broken field and his uncanny know! of the destiny of forward passes. If he was igible for the reity he would tank up with Tibbott in many ways. Gillespie at right end was another scrub man who brought the varsity back to earth time and again.
