BASEBALL AND THE SCHOOLS
Easier to Get a Job in Jersey if One
 Can Play the Game a Bit.

A man who sells school books an1 has for his territory a large part of New Jersey says that people may talk as they please about the growing in- fluence of graft practices, but he has seen enough of the small towns and cities throughout the state to satisfy him that it will not be long before baseball will be dominant force from the Delaware to the Hudson. You've no idea" said the book man, what hold baseball, and par ticularly Sunday baseball, is getting on an old friend of mine down in Burlington county only last week, just to keep my fences up, and l ask ed him howethfng were going on and what the prospects were for next year.
 There are no prospects said my friend; that Is. not for me; I'm fired. I'm to go at the end of the school year.
 Now this chap is superintendent of schools in his town and 1 happen to know he is good one, a first class educator. 1 found that when he told me he had been fired simply because he had opposed Sunday base ball he had given the exact truth. Nobody had any fault to find with his educational wark; he had done 1t well; the schools had improved under him.
 But when he came into the town he naturally arrayed himself on the side of the so-called better element and with that element had opposed ball playing on the Sabbath. He was no more aggressive than others. not so much so. in fact: but the de voices of Sunday ball won out. and as soon as they saw they had things their own way they began to look around for revenge. Who is this chump of a school master who is down on the gamer they asked each other. He's no good. If he wouldn't have us play on Sunday let's fire him Now, as a result he's looking for another job.
 Whom do you suppose they pick ed out for my friends successor as school superintendent" the book man went on. Why. they scratched around until they got hold of bright chap, who besides being good school master. is one of the best amateur backstops in the state, and they signed him. so to speak. He'll teach the kids five days week catch for the home nine. and maybe, on a pinch. they'll prevail on him 10 put on the mitt on a Sunday. now and then, although I would not vouch for this last. Anyway, they seem to think he will not muss up with the Sunday baseball question and if he won't play on Sunday will keep his mouth shut.
 The state is full of baseball. and young men coming out of normal schools and colleges and who intend to make teaching their calling are getting wise to the fact that If they can knock the ball about and per- haps pitch little they stand better chance of getting a good start in some country town or small city than if they do the bookworm sc.. Even if they can't play it helps won derfully to go to the Saturday games and root for the home nine. It not only helps with the voters. but 1t makes discipline easier in the school It is wonderful how the boys viii stand around a principal who can play a good game"

CORNELL MAY NOT RACE
TROUBLE OYER COURSE.
The Columbia Eight Makes Good
preston an q Trial.
[Ry telegram % The Tribune. ]


POughkeepsie, n. V June 14-The stories that
have been flying around that Cornell may with
draw from the varsity race in the intercollegiate
regatta because of the course that has been as
signed TO the Ithacans crystallized this after
noon, when Courtney. the coach of the crew,
said that unless the course assigned to the wear
ers of the red and white is changed his crew
will not start He said:
We do not purpose 10 over the course as
signed. and unless it is changed they Will look
in vain for the Cornell crew at the starting Inc
when the is l do not know what is 10
be done about it, but We are not satisfied with
1t as it is.
The trouble is that course No. is too close-to
the pier to permit shell to get by without
making it lose some ground. There Is a strong
eddy around the base of each pier. but course
No. is the only that is harmed by this.
The lanes designated to be fifty feet
apart, with the exception that each lane near
a pier should be seventy-five feet from the centre
line of the pier. 1t is obvious that this rule has
not been followed. because course No. 3 Is con-
siderably more than fifty feet away from the
stone work, while the Cornell course In the var
sity race is something like twenty feet away.
perhaps not much.
Courtney said to-day that the freshman crew,
which Yale beat about eight years ago on the
Hudson suffered from the same trouble. Ac-
Cordng to COurtney's story, the Cornell fresh
men went under the bridge a full length before
Yale, and came out from under the bridge as
much behind. The trouble is that the swirl there
catches d boat and carries 1t off the course.
Judge Frank r. Irvine telegraphed to the man
ager of the Cornell crew tonight, asking him
whether there was any need for his services.
1t is understood that the whole matter will be
put before Judge Irvine who is a member of the
board of stewards.
The Columbia crew did really excellent piece
of rowing this morning, going over the full
course and little more at top speed. The oars
men were we'll together all the way and never
showed signs of breaking. The stroke was held
at thirty-three to the minute most of the way
and the shell moved without the semblance of a
check. The freshmen and the fours started with
the varsity, but rowed only two miles
Pennsylvania's hard working four cared crews
had a brush in the morning, and the varsity
went over the The freshmen accom-
panied the senior for the middle miles of
the journey and beat them out. In the after
noon the fours had another race. but the other
crews rowed down the river easily. Ward will
pick his varsity four tomorrow.
Cornelrs crews had the customary time row
over the course In the morning. The work In
the afternoon was light
Syracuse did light work out in the morning.
and in the afternoon took long down the
river. Ten Eyck says that his are in good
condition. The Georgetown crew is expected
here tomorrow and the Wisconsin crew on Sat
