Statements of George Huff, athletic director of lllino's, sturdily favoring the practice, and of L. St. John of Ohio State, opposing any mitigation of the rule which forbids college men to play base ball in vacation time for money, have been noted, as has the rather curious statement by Tom Jones of Wisconsin. Jones states that While he does not favor opening the gates fer culcge vlayers who want summer tase ball. they should to pla h receive “liberal consideration.” if when found guilty they appiy for re- ement as varsity players. Director Phil Barteime of Michigan lelieves in restricted summer ball. that is, giving permission to varsity men to play semi-professional ball on town or industrial nines And so it goes—varying opinions at almost all the confefence seats. Frank Glick’s Opiai Frank_Glick, hedd “pabkfield-¢oach of the Princeton eleven and captain of the Tiger team of 1915, hits the summer_base ball nail squarely on the head. Base ball”” writes Glick, “is a na- tional pastime. played in the larger sense by professionals, but also to a great degree by amateurs. I do not think that the moment an amateur steps across the line and receives a monetary return for his services he becomes less worthy. or loses the fine spirit of sportsmanship 2nd fair play which are inculcated in all amateur play 1 i hold no brief for professional sports; they need none. Their popu- larity among the American public is sufficient proof of their place and their worth-whileness. In order to be fair with all college athletes .why should any one proficient as a foot ball player not be allowed to sell his services dur- ing Thanksgiving and Christmas holi-- days, the same as one who is permitted to play summer base ball for money. “To ask the very question is to an- swer it. Foot ball today, with a few exceptions, is truly a_college game— played by amateurs. To permit men to play professional foot ball in coflege would destroy the very essence of the game. To my way of thinking the same holds true of college base ball. ‘Surely an expert college ball player can find enough ways to earn sufficient | money to pay his way through college | without jeopardizing his amateur standing. ‘It has been done before, and, with so many oppertunities open to- y. it can be continued to be done. This seems to be the sentiments of | most of the college men today, as I have heard them.” Navy Crew Looks Best. The triangular regatta on Lake Car- negie tomorrow among varsity eight- oared crews of the Navy, Harvard and Princeton. is the first of the season's important regattas.
