OF BEINGPROFESSIONAL
Quits Pehisylvania Eleven Only to
Meet 'Fresh Charges
of Union
Philadelphia, Nov. 8-Howard Berry,
the greatest all-round athlete in col-
legiate circles, is a professional, ac-
cording to 'advices received here.
Walsh, Grant and Stack are other star
Penn football players who have been
ensnared in the "Pro" net. On Wed-
nesday Berry declined to take part in
a football scrimmage when ordered to
do so by the Penn coaches, and when
reproached informed Chairman What-
ton Sinkler he was through with ath-
letics.
Accusations against Berry, which
are said to be in the hands of Sec-
retary" Frederick W. Rubien of the
Amateur Athletic Union in New York,
assert that he played semi-profes-
sional baseball before he came to the
University of Pennsylvania.
According to the best information,
when Berry went to Muhlenberg col-
lege about three years ago it was
known at the time that he had played'
on semi-professional baseball teams
around Philadelphia. After leaving
Muhlenberg Berry went to Pennsylva-
nia, and then applied for admission
into the Amateur Athletic Union. He
received his card, but it is said only
after a bitter fight.
The information will be acted upon
at the meeting of the Amateur Ath-
letic Union in New York on November
15.
Berry came into prominence as an
athlete when he won the all-around
championship in the Pennsylvania re-
lay sports here last April. He was by
far the best of the field, and by hisi
high scores in all the events earned
the title of "strong man." He is pro-
ficient in almost every branch of
sport. His work on the gridiron squad
has been excellent.,
Berry alleges that he has not re-
ceived fair treatment from the foot-l
ball coaches at Pennsylvania.c

Final tryouts to determine the make-
up of the cross country team to repre-
sent Michigan at the Eastern Inter-
collegiate cross country meet will be
held Saturday. The elimination test
will be a race over the cross country
club course, and the six high men will
be chosen to make the trip to Frank-
lin, Mass., the following week.
Boston will be the immediate ob-
jective of the six men who qualify, and
they will take up their headquarters
there until they are met by Track
Coach Farrell. From Boston the run-
ners will go to Franklin for the meet,
where they will compete with teams
from practically all of the eastern and
middle-west universities, including
Harvard, Princeton, Yale and Cornell.
Michigan's team so far this year
has made a good showing, winning
both from the Detroit Y. M. C. A., from
M. A. C., and Albion. Michigan's team
beat the Detroiters over the Michigan
course in a dual run, and won from
the state colleges in the meet at Lan-
sing last Saturday.
IOWA. PROFESSOR DISCOVERS
HUGE PREHISTORIC SLOTHS
Iowa City, Ia., Nov. 8.-Prof. Homer
Dill, assistant professor of zoology at
the University of Iowa, has made pub-
lic here the result of scientific explor-
ations at Rancha La Brea, eight miles
west of Los Angeles, which, were un-
dertaken this summer.
"In the fossil beds of this vicinity,"
reported Prof. Dill, "scientists have
discovered the remains of ground
sloths which when they were alive,
200,000 years ago, were as large as a
modern street car. Their remains
have been found in asphalt beds. The
excavation work is now being con-
tinued under the direction of officials
of Los Angeles, and information of the
discoveries is being closely guarded."
Bones of great carnivora, lions,
tigers, wolves, and bears have been
found, Professor Dill reports. The
most notable discovery is the saber-
toothed tiger. A human skeleton,
whose age can hardly be measured in
terms of years, but which must belong
to a period when human evolution was
in its beginning, has also been un-
earthed.
Many remains of birds were also
discovered, reported Professor Dill.
Because of the fact that bird bones
do not usually fossilize, the bird de-
posits at Rancha La Brea are partic-
ularly noteworthy in the world of
American science.

Dr. Post Leaves Lansing City Hospital
Lansing, Mich., Nov. 8.-Lansing is
to have another hospital and because
the city already has one, the gift of a
former resident, it is possible that this
one may be for care of contagious dis-
ease cases. Dr. Julius A. Post died
recently and when his will was open-
ed it was found it left everything to
build a hospital in Lansing as a me-.
morial to his late wife, Ellen A. Post.
The will was made in 1897 and esti-
mates the value of his property, most-
ly real estate in Lansing, at $5,000.
Since then the property has increased
in value until it is now figured as
worth $100,000.

U. S. Navy Wants Munitimeserve
Washington, D. C., Nov. 8.-A ma-
terial increase in the reserve supplies
of ammunition, shells and torpedoes
of the United States navy is recom-
mended by Rear Admiral Straus, chief
of ordinance, in his annual report to
Secretary Daniels. Progress has been
made during the last year along a
number of lines, according to Rear
Admiral Straus.. One of the greatest
steps forward, he says, was the per-
fecting of a new 8-inch armor pierc-
ing shell. Experiments are now being
conducted for the purpose of perfect-
ing shells of a larger caliber.
