BY JAKE STAHL.
Manager of the Washington Base
Ball Club.

BAL CluD.
A change in the college athletic
system of the country is inevitable.
The competitive idea is RESPONSE
BILE for innumerable abuses. The
beat 'em out" idea has gained too
much of an ascendancy. The sole
notion of one college is to infiict
defeat upon the other college in
foot ball, base ball, rowing and
track events. The glory of captur-
ing big, widely advertised events
is made to seem worthy any sac
rifice. Everything is staked on the
chance to win.
The desire for victory will never
be overcome, but | know that this
thing is all wrong and that it has
been EXTERNALLY injurious to college
athletics. For one thing, it has
made eXclusiveness in the physical
training of the students at the col
leges. The evenly balanced, useful
physical training of the great body
of students is sacrificed for the
quick and scientific development of
the few who look promising for the
big competitive events.
In the great majority of colleges
only the chaps who by physical en-
dowment offer the quickest prom
Use Of being nodded and hammer
ed into shape as foot ball players
in the big games have any chance
to play in the game of foot ball,
The great mass of young men who
don't look good enough to be held
in reserve as possible competitive
players are virtually shut out of
the fun and the benefit of the game
They are relegated to the ranks of
mere lockers on.
It's the same way With college
base ball. The fellows who look
good as base pall material are
snapped up and put in the hands of
the trainers and the other fellows,
no matter how fond they may be
of the game, or how much they
may enjoy playing the game as an
outdoor sport. have no chance.
Perhaps IS per cent Of the young
fellows who go to the college are
proficient ball players-young fell
lows, that is to say, who know the
game and who like to play it just
for the fun of the thing and for the
exercise. But they are brushed
aside for the very few who look
good enough to be taken in hand
and trained for the regular teams.
Even if the unsolicited students
who wanted to play ball among
themselves just for the fun and ex-
ercise were to organize themselves
into scrub teams they wouldn't be
often able to get hold of the col
lege diamond to play the game, for
the diamond Is in almost constant
use by the selected ones, who are
being coached and trained for the
regular teams.
1t is exactly the same with re-
gard 20 track events. and even with
gymnasium work. The instruc-
ton and training are all devoted to
chaps who give promise of develop
ing into something excellent in
their respective lines for competi-
tive events.

hammer-thrower Is grabbed as
