SuEfe.sf Athletic Alliance
Interesting Papers Read at Meeting of Nationa
Collegiate Athletic Association.

At the morning session Of the National
Collegiate Athletic Association at the Hotel
Astor yesterday addresses. were made as
follows:
The Intercollegiate Athletic Associa-
tion,'' by Captain Palmer z. Pierce, presi-
dent; "a Chronicle Of the Amateur Spirit
by Professor r. TAFT Mckenzie, University
of Pennsylvania: Conference Direction
and Control of Athletics in the Middle
West" by Professor Arthur g. Smith. State
University of Iowa. and 'sAthletics as a
Function in National Life by the Rev DR..
Charles F. Aked, New York City.
Captain Pierce suggested an alliance with
the intercollegiate Association of Amateur
Athletes of America, which controls track
and field sports. and gave an interesting
and entertaining review Of the work of the
association He said, in part:
II is a great pleasure TO report that as
time passes this association meets with
glowing approval. In 1906 thirty-nine uni
versities and colleges were members. This
year the membership has grown TO elshty-
one. On account of its really national
name, it is proposed TO call this organiza-
ton in future the National Collegiate Atm
letic Association.
II does seem that the Importance OF prop
er direction ana control Of athlstics in our
colleges should be patent 10 every educator
Some are slow. however. TO accept the ldea
that national organization is necessary,
but it IS believed within a few years all
will join in this effort to make the best OF
the educational features OF college attn
leticS.
Without doubt il will be a great thing for
the country when all the boys and young
men are flled with a desire for personal
participation in pure athletics, knowing
that il is better to lose fairly than 10 win
unfairly.
If we can encourage the great mass OF
youth of this land to take part In manly
games in a rational and sentleTnanly man
0er we will have done much for their NOR
al and phvsicai wellbeing. Since over %
ner cent of the successful men are college
Graduates what q wonderful field there is
in which TO work for their national vel
fare.
If we succeed In eliminating the what
any-coSt idea on our college athIetic ieiuS
the civic life of this country Will be bene-
flied
The Importance Of the work done by the
football rules committee cannot be over
estimated. The committee had dlfncnlt

Professor Mckenzie wound up his inter
esting address by saying:
But the very specialization and study re-
quired to fit a man for place on soou
college team in football or baseball, or trach
athletics, for that matter, are such that the
mental strain of football season ieaVes
the high strung college man morose, HIl
bic or even hysterical, and now that the
bur6ened by rules SO complicated that a
ost-graduate course in the hiGner naaltie

dispute about them intelllgently the Ihie
has surely arrived for course OF down
ward revision and simplication and for the
consideration of the following four maladies
of amateurism, all the result OF INTENSE
specialization and competition: .

arated into a special class apart from ms ms
fellows requiring separate quarters, speclai
Giet and consequent privileges TO make the
drudgery less irksoIle.
s. The publicity that accompanies the
contest brings them into the class OF pubic
spectacles for which spectators pay 10 see
players, who become mere performers.
Pressure Is thus brought TO bear on athletic
authorities and rules committees to con-
slider tie spectator rather than the man for
whom the game should be designed
T. The winning OF the game becomes more
important than the observance of the spirit
of the law and the practice of fair play.
It is a professional motive, which Is again
replacing the amateur motive, which is the
thrill of the contest.
And since I have spoken OF these. four
evils that have always been the lneVltaoie
companions of too high degree of specldi-
ization, ancient and modern. let me- sus-
gest four lines along which We must con-
tinue TO work if We are to avoid the ms
takes that in the past have done so much
TO drag down the ethics of athletic cornpe-
titien among gentlemen:
First-Keep the standard or excenence
down within the reach of more men by dis
couraging indirect training and training ur-
der forced conditions; add more joy to the
drudgery of the varsity man..
Second-Diminsh the class distinction pc
tween athlete and student fostered by
training tables and the privileges that the
athlete so often claims as a right

BASEBALL ON THE GRILL
Much Interest Shown at Meeting
of Newly Named National
Collegiate Athletic
Association.

Faculty representatives from some eighty
o6d universities, colleges and educational
institutions throughout the country set
their stamp OF approval yesterday on new
football al the fifth annual meeting Of the
newly named National Cole yiate Athletic
Association in the north ballroom at the
Hotel Astor. One year ago almost every
hand was turned against the virile, popu-
lar college game. Open threats were made
that a ban would be placed on football by
many institutions unless some radical ac-
ton 7as taken to insure safer and saner
game Such members of the football rules
committee are named by the associa-
tion., seven in number. We're warned that
the fate Of the game rested in their hands,
and that the faculties would not be satisfied
with any halfway measures.
Thi. hostile attitude was conspicuous by
Its absence yesterday, except in rare in
stances, and while some suggestions were
made to simplify the code and TO make
stiu further improvements. the general feel
ing. plainly indicated and more or less
strongly expressed. was one of satisfaction
that much had been accomplished TO bring
about the desired result.
The complex problem of summer semi
professional baseball and its attendant
evils cropped out from time to time, but
no regular discussion was had and no ac-
don taken on this ali-important question.

TEACHER AND PUPIL
PLAY PARTIES TO ROMANCE

K. Timothy Faust, the lanky, back
woods school teacher in the original
school-day sketch in the Miles this
week, and Isabel Crawford, one of
his make-believe pupils, were prin-
cipals in real stage romance, which
had its elimination I'm matrimony just
before the company packed its trunks
in Kansas City recently. to come to
this city.
The young couple became acquaint-
ed as members of the chorus in a
musical comedy back east three or
four years ago. They grew quite
fond Of each other, but when the
show broke up, they drifted apart.
Faust subsequently took up with Sam
Curtis and was engaged to play the
teacher, while Miss Crawford re-
NAMED in chorus work until fate in
tervened.
About a month ago a vacancy oc-
cured in MrC Curtis company. Miss
Crawford was engaged TO fill the
place, and there was mutual rejoicing
when Prof" Faust recognized in his
new pupil his friend of musical
comedy days. The smoldering flame
was rekindled and during their Kan
sas City engagement it burst into
fame.
So, one afternoon, the pair betook
themselves to the Office OF the county
clerk and procured a license. While
it was being issued, a justice of the
peace happened along, and. without
any preliminaries. began tying the
knot. 1t was all so informal that the
couple supposed that this was merely
part of the process Of obtaining the
license and were genuinely surprised
to learn they had been married. To
make doubly sure that the knot had
been properly tied they were remar-
ried by minister the following day.
Mr.. and Mrs. Faust are quite con-
fident that, with all these precautions,
their little romance will have hap
pier termination than most stage
unions. Both are young and ambiti-
Gus. Mr.. Faust was a son Of the late
Rev Herman =. Faust a prominent
New York divine.
