Follow Plan of Smaller Colleges in 161 Dropping Seasonal Mentors. Cambridge, Mass.,, April 12.—Harv- ard, Yale and Princeton are not ex- pected to vote to do away with the seasonal coach, as did the Presidents of a number of smaller colleges, at a meeting held Monday in Springfield. It was said on good authority last night that the representatives of the “Big Three" institutions did not vote against seasonal coaching at their New York meeting, but it is felt that some stand may have bheen ken in favor of graduate coaches in case it is possible to secure suffable ones for the different sports. Of the five major sports at Harvard only one is coached by a professional, the baseball team, which is handled by Jack Slattery, an ex-major leaguer. The sole seasonal coach is Dr. Heber Howe, in charge of crew, who is listed as an instructor in physical education. rraduates coach football, track and hockey, and among the minor sports, tennis and lacrosse. Iaculty coach- ing. it is said, could be applied to smaller colleges where the candidates for athletic teams are few, but it would be almost impossible at a !flrm\ college where several thousand stu- dents are eligible for athletics. 277 will start 286 265 287 328 442 224 200 239 217 244 124 247 232 243 218 210 Chicago Semi-Pro $10,000 To Bambino For His Ser\. ices And Gets a Laugh.

Editorially The News said: “Though the loss of men may be keenly felt, Princeton may hold up er head in pride that she has made 1 move which is definitely in the di- rection of clean athletics. Sport for sport’s sake and not for victory's is the aim of the American university in the present day. Princeton is to he congratulated on her advance to- vard this goal. “It must be firmly berne in mi that there is no charge of profes- sionalism against the barred Prince- ton athletes. “The failure of the men lately de- clared ineligible lay in their failure to repdrt their financial status to the proper body. This action on the part of Princeton spells ‘danger' in red letters to other Yale, Harvard or Princeton athletes at present or fu- ture, who neglect this full report of finances.” T BOSTON OPENIN(C Sox With \Inm New Faces in Lineup, Meet Athletics Boston, April 12.—Fair and cool weather favored the qpening of the najor league haseball season here to- fay.
