THE AMATEUR WAR. %;g,;:g By SOL METZGER Most of the present war-timesasi- tation about reforming intercollegiate athletics is for the far-sighted purpose of seeing that they land on a new and purely amateur basis onoe peace comes. The immediate object is to make college athletics a part' of <and entirely. subservient to military trair- ing, a landable and patriotic plan. But those who look into the future—to-that day when peace is ours and intensive intercollegiate competition in sport is once more likely to:come about— are dreaming of another college sport, world than the one which ceased in April, 1917. T take it that is the:long- sighted views of those educators'who are doing the patriotic. thing now in keeping the sport. on a more or less informal basis and always svbordinate to military training at thelr respec- tive institutions. These men know—as we all know— that the college athlete as we knew him in almost a majority. of cases was aided either directly or indirecHly to zain his education; these men know that various graduates and _ under- graduates, singly and collectively, were engaged in proselyting school boy athletic stars and these men be- lieve 211 this is wrong and that when peace comes our college sport should be free from these things. To do away with these so-cailed evils many educators are now' m\ much attention to so-called reform college sport. They realize that the present situation makes_ the time ripe to strike; and striking they are to eliminate the machinery which makes proselyting and yrofessionalism mone- tary and social, possible. Getting rid of professional coaches, MARKET FLUCTUATED Pools Resumed Operations in the Bet- ter Known Specialties. - New York, March 14—Revival of last week's inquiry for rails, especially the coal carriers, contributed in large degree to the occasional activity and variable strength of today's stock market. Reading was again the conspicuous feature at an extreme gain of 4 points to 84 5-8, the maximum quotation thus far this yea~ Dealings in that issue so far exceeded all other issues as to excite much conjecture. Other strong coalers included Nor- and ey and Erie first preferred, ranging from one to,two points. Transcontinentals, angers and trunk line shares moved forward later, Union Pacific, Atchison, St. Pauls, Ii- linois Centrai, Rock Islands and New York Central leading these several di- visions by a point or more. There was a tentative resumption of bullish operations by pools in the bet- ter known specialties, notably tobac- cos, oils, motors, Ameri®an Can and low priced equipments -where gross advances of one to three points were shaded on general realizing of the fi- nal hour. Seasoned industrials, inctuding Unit- ed States Steel, held within restricted limits and shippings and metals were much less,prominent than usual. Sales amounteq to 385,000 shares.

In this, connection sparting writers are coming in for ¢. shot or two, here and there, for featuring college athletic news, a matter that automaticslly takes care of itself if the objective of theseteducators be attained. But attaining. this objective is a tre- mendous task. It means nothing less than changing human nature, for indi- viduals with money many continue to hold that they have the right to use their coin as they will according to each man’s conscience and within the law. They reason that it is legiti- mate.for them to educate a poor boy, even it the selfish purpose is to glo- rify the college in an athletic sense. And they can point with pride to many Successful men of today, who, by this means, were able to get the education which gave them their start in life. Breaking un such a thing is about im- possible am -if carried. too far can easity be made to effect college endow- ments. So much for that, The fine mentality of the men who seek to make a new crder of things in college athletics after the war is shown in their plan as so far revealed: They do not any longer directly strike at the right of proselyting: they go beyond this -and- seek to remove the reason: for proselyting-:and .consequent professionalism by wiping out inter- collegiate sport as we knew it up to the, time Uncle: Sam decided to cleanse William the Rotten. Nearly éveryone knows if the -war goes a.long time—and that seems to be the general view — that our ed- ucational:institytions will be on a mili- tary basisiand that sport will be noth- Ing gwre than what it shonld be— sub®dinate to military © work. This will automatically wipe out biz games and athletic heroes and substitute in . | their: places battles and military cpm- manders, Consequently the youth of the country will naturally fall into line and forget about great football play- ers and other college athletic stars. Sport on_a miiltary basis sport for all.’ From a commercial standpoint it iy small potatoes. Army sport produces ' few stars and the army itself is too busy to note who they are. Consequently, if the col- legesiget upon a military basis, which seems_plausible, the 4thiof July:will be knocked out of college sport+and can only_be restored after-the war is over.

That is intercollegiate sport and a great many people think it a fine thing to for boy, even under the conditions prevalent when we went to war. After all it is the spirit of the thing which counts. That is what the ama- teur propagandists shout at us. They cannot countenance professionalism in any form. Spirit, eh! What do you think of this? The writer knew of a noted: varsity runner who was technically a pro! sional because pe was aided financial ly in zetting through college. Later he met a runmer from ahother col technical and spiritual amateur, “who ran many & race in his undergraduate days aazinst the technical pro run- ner. The amateur, entered hls last race against the pro in a college dual meet. The amateur had never won his varsity letter. To do so he had to win a first-in this his last dual meet. His chances seemed doomed. But on the last Jap when all hope seemed dead. for the pro was jogging along In the van, an.easy winner, a _strange thing happened. = The pro‘looksd nver his shoulder, saw the amateur, check- ed his pace and when the amateur challenged him the pro said: “Come on now, S—! Tl pace you in. and if no one else comes up it's your race.” S—, the amateur, won that race and his. coveted letter as well..He has always -held that the . other” fellow, technically aypro, was the finest sportsman he! ever® knew.

Last Spring the Pirates:tesk abaut forty athletics to the -club’s southern training camp. This time, however Manager ‘Bezdek has only about 23 nien ‘with him. The Cardinals may begin their pre- liminary work in the south without one of last year's regular outfielders signed. Tommy Long has been re- leased and Walter Cruise apd Jack Smith are holdouts. Like many another player, Jimmy Archer finally has bobbed up with the club which gave him his first major league contract. It was with the Pis rates that Archer made his major league debut in 1904. Now that Jack Powell has shown that he is serious about his comeback stunt somebody should page Cy Young and find out if he too would not like to don the spangles for another try at the major league game. The ‘St. Louis Browns should be very well coached this . season with Jimmy Burke on hand.to hand out tips of the infielders, Fielder Jones to direct the outfielders and Ed Walsh to take care of the pitchers. Jim Scott of the White Sox is now Capt. Jim and is located up nean Ta- coma. Von Kolnitz, also of the White Sox, is a captain, giving. the champ- ions an edge on most teams as far as commissions are concerned. Roger Bresnahan intends to do a lot of catching for his Toledo Amerti- can Association club this season. Last summer Bresnahan caught in about 20 games, as Ed Sweeney was the team’s leading backstop, but now Ed is in the'army. Among - the- stars- at, The New Jersey gtate association, American Football association and the United States football association, are all making a new rule making plavers eligible to play at shorter time of re- gistration, on aceount of so many players having been called to the colors. The Field Club soccer league of New York have been fined the suni of ten dollars for. failure to keep some form of registration, which would enable the association to know whether the players had signified their intentions to play for' the respective clubs in that league.

Because it is going to help win the war through' the training it is giving our aviators in the art, of wing shooting, the better equipping them to cope with enemy airmen. 2. Because, it is alréady helping to win ‘the war, through thé soldiers, al- ready in action or at camps, who were trapshooters (and they are legion) who have had their marksmanship im- proved by this sport. 3.
