Eddie Murray, captain of Trinity baseball team, wiil be given a chance to make good in the big show with the St. Louis Browns when they come east. Murray, one of the best players that ever put on a Trinity uniform, was_interviewed last Tuesday by Har- ry Davis, scout for the Browns, in re- gard to signing a contract with tha% team. Murray is undecided whethe? he will take up the offer or not, but sl e oy S cvnenasme: Ll £ Mitel will east. Davis has been keeping tabs on Mur- ray from the beginning of the season and has watched him develop into a fast and heavy @itting inflelder. The Hartford club of the Eastern league report when the Browns come Davis' offer was very flattering, as he was willing to sign Murray without even a tryout with the team, giving the youngster a place on the bench. Murray received his baseball edu- cation at the Norwich Free Academy, playing for four years on the team. On entering Trinity he made the team the first year. At Trinity he has been de- veloped by Coach Jimmy Burms, who knows the game from etart to finish.

An informal conference of graduate managers and athletic representatives of fourteen universities and colleges discussed the present condition of col- lege athletics at a meeting held in New York Saturday. While these rep- resentatives had no power to bind their several Institutions, the discus- sion brought out the fact that it was the sense of those present that college athletics should be continued. Many modifications of the usual systems were discussed although no conclu- sion was reached. 1t was decided to request the execu- tive committee of the National Colle- giate Athletic association which an- nounced a meeting of that committee to be held at Washington some time next August to consider these same matters, to make the meeting a gen- eral one of all members of the asso- ciation, because the subject is so im. portant that all members should have Iln opportunity to present their opin- ons. Major H. G. Pender, Dartmouth, pre- sided at the meeting and the follow- ing were present: Sol Metzger, Washington and Jef- ferson; S. G. Palmer, Swarthmore; Frank Cann, N.
