The shortening Of the season to
14O games is generally commended.
The last games will be played on
Labor Day. in the O.-P. league, 1t

last of September, with the result
that many teams went deeper into
the financial mire because interest
was one the wane at the close Of a
long drawn out season. In this lit
tile league, however, there will be a
game every day and occasionally don-
bleheaders so that there is little time
for the players or fans to loaf.

former to Dartmouth and the latter 10
Yale. Both won fame as track athletes

tions to smiths suit. He declared, II
is said, that he did not favor Smith be-
cause he would not settle down in some

courts. He filed a suit for damages,
which has not yet been settled.
