Columns have been spilled on the subject of commercialism and over- emphasis of football, the menace of the 'gate receipts, the million- dollar athletic budget and the bal- #yhoo. At the College of Puget Sound, the student manager reports that football showed a net LOSS of $2,000, whereas debating and dra- Tollege a, Wash- matics, among other undergraduate | act last ties, produced profits, year. Had football broken even, it might be said that affairs had reached the ideal state of propor- ion in the collegiate organization. Tducators might, in fact, hail this as a great example. However, at the College of Puget Sound there is no enthusiasm whatever. Nelson R. Hong, in the Tacoma News Tribune, writes: { “Logger gridders played to little more than empty seats in Tacoma. | Lack of color is the reason foot- ball fans did not turn out in larg-| €r numbers. With this disastrous ®financial season behind it the Col- lege of Puget Sound should be more anxious than ever to do some- thing to put football on a self-sup- porting basis, if not a paying basis. “By employing a coach of per- sonality and color the College of Puget Sound can take the most effective step to rout Old Man Fi- nancial Difficul s As the boys in Enid, Okla., and elsewhere have hastened to point out to us, Eddie Morgan, the Cleve- land clouter, seems more occupied with making a success of the first base job than with any ambitions to be another Cobb or Speaker in the outfield. In fact, Eddie played only 19 games in the outfield last year, as compared with 129 at first base, where he displaced the veteran Portuguese, Lew Fonseca, and turned in a very neat job.

For example the following cir- cumstances described in a Glasgow dispatch to the London Evening Standard: “Two well known ex-footballers were arrested today on a charge of alleged bribery. “The men, Archibald Kyle, labor- er, of Rockliffe Street, Glasgow, and Adam Miller, miner, of High Avon street, Larkhall, appeared be- fore the stipendiary magistrate. “They were charged with ‘hav- ing, between Boxing Day and yes- terday, in May street and Both- well road, Hamilton, and in Hope street, Glasgow, corruptly offered al gift of 100 pounds to the captain of Hamilton Academical Football club, if he agreed that his club be defeated in the First League game with Leith Athletic, which is to be Iplayed at Hamilton Saturday.’ | “They were remanded in custody for 48 hours pending further in- quiry. Kyle played for Rangers,| | Blackburn Rovers, Clyde, St. Mir-| ren and Hamilton Academies. He; }represented Scotland on two occa- |sions against England.

Each team has won two contacts in their five-game tourna- ment. The next and deciding strug- gle will be at Douglas next Friday evening. At the beginning of the present series, Juneau did not show to advantage, and Douglas took the first two encounters. Juneau then developed winning form and has captured the last two games. Dash and Confidence In the high school gymnasium here last night, Juneau played with dash and confidence. Douglas was nervous and over-anxious. Details follow: First quarter—Fast and checking featured the early play. L. Jackson of the Juneau team eau close scored the first point of the game, registering one on a foul shot. R. Africh caged the ball on a foul shot for Douglas. L. Jackson made another point from the charity line for Juneau. Due to close checking, there was frequent fouling on both sides. Douglas had nunferous shots at the basket but failed to sink the ball. Second quarter—R. Africh scored a goal for Douglas. M. Hansen per- formed likewise for Juneau. R. Africh recorded a point for Doug- las on a foul shot, tying the score just as the quarter ended. Fast and Close Playing Third quarter—L. Jackson scored a goal for Juneau. M. Hansen reg- istered a point for Juneau on a foul shot. The play was fast and close Douglas forwards on numerous shots were unable to cage the ball. Fourth quarter—R. Africh made one point for Douglas from the dharity line. L. Jackson scored two goals in rapid succession for Ju- neau. The last few minutes of play witnessed a fast exchange of pas es.
