Lister played first base regularly for

Jennings at the New York baseball
meeting. Lister looked good to me
when he was with Cleveland, and he
has been improving. both in batting
and fielding ever since"
"Criger will make the Highlanders
win next year." says James McAleer,
manager of the Washingtons. 1.-The
veteran catcher is not all in by any

FREE HITTING GAME
POPULAR, SAYS DONLIN
FORMER GIANT, WHILE PLAYING
SPORTING EDITOR, WRITES
ABOUT GAME FANS
LIKE TO SEE.

Mike Donlin, following Joe Tinker's
example, acted as a sporting editor re-
Gently and it was in a st. Louis paper
that the former Giant had this to say
among other things:
There is one particular factor in
baseball, from the view point of the
spectator, that appeals to him, or her,
stronger than any other. l say him
or her" because so many women at
tend baseball games and understand
all the niceties of the play that they
must be taken into consideration in
any discussion which tends towards
baseball legislation for the benefit Of
those who support the game.
This fact of which l speak is what
is technically known as 'free-bttting-
game That is, heavy hitting by the
batters and consequent action on the
bases by the runners.
There is a patent reason for this.
I'm all popular sports action is the
main attraction. That is why base
ball, which is full of action, is so popu-
lar.
"The men who manage and promote
the national sport, having, of course,
the pleasing of their patrons in view,
desire this kind of a contest between
the teams.
"a pitchers battle, when the pitch
ers prove themselves so much supe-
rior in their delivery of the ball to
the batter that base hits are few, is
not as interesting to the grandstand
and bleachers as the more active
game!
There has been for years legislation
among the owners and managers Of
the National league toward handi-
Gaping the pitcher so that the batter
will have an equal or more than
equal chance against him.
eff l may use an illustration, this
puts me in mind of those who manu-
facture armor plates for battle-ships.
They are in direct competition with
those other manufacturers who make
projectiles to pierce the aforesaid
armor All the improvements in de-
Tense of warships have been more
than met by the improvements in the
piercing force of projectiles."

MILLER E1UMBLES
MICHIGAN'S PRIDE
PLAYS ON FOOTBALL TEAM
WHILE INELIGIBLE AND
CAUSES APOLOGY.
SOCCER GAME is SCHEDULED

!. low Miller certainly put the UNI
versity of Michigan in an embarrass-
ing position. He played star football
and helped to win several games,
among them the Pennsylvania and
Minnesota contests, and wasn't even
bona fide student of the school.
Now the football management of
Michigan has had to apologize and
say how sorry it is for the actions OF
one of its players, who had no right
in the game under the intercollegiate
rules.
On the strength of the good work
he had done Miller was elected cap
tain of next years team and received
the university "M." He has been
shorn of both of these honors and
new leader is to be chosen.
Announcement of the action taken
against Miller was made by Prof.
George w. Patterson, chairman OF the
board of control Of athletics.
The question of Miller's eligibility
first came under the attention OF
Dean Cooley, of the engineering de-
nartment of the university. Miller
was absent from Ann Arbor and a let
fer requesting his appearance before
+be hoard in control brought no reply
IF was given out that Miller appeared
before the eligibility committee dur
ing the season and signed statement
that he was a bona fide student ana
eligible to play on the team.
The action against him was taken
upon the ground that while ne mad
registered in the engineering depart
mont he had not been enrolled in any
classes until after the close OF the
football season, when he induced sew
eraI professors to accept his enroll
ment tentatively, with the understand
ing that he would make up the work
/ that he had missed. Miller lives IN
Detroit.
The games in which he played were
those against Minnesota, Pennsylva-
MIA. Notre Dame, Syracuse and Mar
quette.
Inst what the ultimate outcome OF
This mess will be has not been deter
mined Michigan won all Of the games
in which Miller played except that
with Notre Dame The teams that
lost to the Wolverines would seem to
have good grounds for protest, but the
critics agree that they cannot be
thrown out and will stand. Michigan
is in none too good standing in the
west. anyway, and Miller's conduct
certainly has not helped any.
The question of Michigan's return
to the fold of the Western conference
was not discussed at the big Eight
meeting in Chicago last month and
nothing was done about Minnesota
having scheduled game with the
Wolverines for next season.
One of the important things that
came out of the meeting was the
boost given to soccer football stock
when Director Huff of Illinois asked
Director Stagg to raise this sport tt
a position of intercollegiate impor
lance. The idea so appealed to Stays
that he challenged the Illini to game
on Marshall field next fall.
This game will be the first inter
collegiate clash of it's kind in the
middle west. The Illini took it up IL
earnest among themselves last fal
and found it to their liking. At thu

To remove the penalty for an I'M

To put a penalty on player for

To protect the receiver of forward
passes and onside kicks from hard
