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 EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE OFc GRANGE PLANS CONVENTIONc Six PICK C-C-C MEN FOR EAST NEXT SATURDAYl Men Will Go to Franklin, Mass., Meeting Fastest Distance Squads I w I_ r Frank Brother FIFTH AVENUE BOOT SHOP NEW YORK I 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. In future all cars stop at Goodyear's Drug Store. o'etf It AT THE BOND STREET STORE- 300 S.
