The manager Is much maligned
because the whole responsibility
rests upon his shoulders, no mat
ter how much they slope. 1t is
his task to bring his team before
a sea of strange faces without
blowing up like one of those
dirigible balloons. And even IL
he succeeds, there are some who
will cavil and say he should have
succeeded differently.
1t is the habit of the manager
to have his employees gather
OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES and give
heed while he gives them good in
|structions. Quite frequently and
OF he must read to them from
the "Child's History of Baseball"
and tell them that one cannot
take strong drink and manifest
health and vigor, nor possess a
prime batting optic if one has
been out after curfew the night
before. Sometimes players pout,
even when admonished in a pleas
ant way. He is criticised for
preaching up nursery notions by
swart athletes who should rather
give up certain pernicious habi-
tudes and be content to dissipate
only in the cloying popcorn fritz
ter. How true this is.
When procuring youthful adj
juncts to his staff he must be very
careful-oh, yes, even that he Is
not duped. He must assay their
craniums to see what per cent
runs to 24-carat ivory. He must
guard and guide them every hour.
and even tuck them in their trun-
die beds lest they stray away
after a hurdy gurdy while he is
lpouring over household expenses.
I Even when they are on the
field of battle, he must impress
upon them, with constant assid-
uity, that some games are Inn
portant and 'twere just as we'll to
win them as fling them away in a
free-handed manner. He must
show them to work a dou BILE play
faster than their brains can work.
He must put down mutiny and the
Arrogance of the umpire with
equal flrmness. mot that hM

SAY COLLEGES DOMINATE
High School Principals Discuss Repor:
of New York Teachers.

Syracuse, Dec. 50.-Clarence D. Kings
ley, chairman of the New York City High
School Teachers Association, to-day sub
mitted a report to the state convention OF
the Associated Academic Principals on the
question of college domination of high
schools
This report which has been ndorsed by
many leading educators throughout the
country, calls for less dictation of the high
school courses by the colleges and urges
less restrictions as to college entrance with
out lowering the standards.
The principals consider this question one
of the most important concerning high
schools at the present time. The report
contains many recommendation for the re.
organization of secondary education
Andrew S. Draper, State Commissioner OF
Education, thinks colleges are too exactine
in their requirements for admission and
particularly that they lay too much stress
on knowledge of what is in books and toe
little on the power to do things He also
thinks that colleges should receive the
graduates of recognized high schools an6
give them their opportunity to snow
whether or not they can do college work.

Agreement with Canada Report
ed to State Department.

Washington. Dec. 3o-An international

United States and Canada, is practically
assured.
Martin a Knapp. chairman of the In
terstate Commerce Commission, and j. r
Mabie, chief of the Railway Commission
Of Canada who have been in conference
on the subject, presented their report to
the State Department to-day. As it is
diplomatic matter, the department directed
them not to make public the result OF theil
negotiations at present
It is known, however, that they nave
agreed as to the advisability Of the Gre
alton OF a commission which shall have
supervisory authority over the railroad
lines doing business between the two coun-
tries This authority is to extend TO the
regulation OF rates, both freight and pas
senger The commission may prescribe
through routes and Joint rates and through
bills of iading. 1t will also have authority
over all international transportation, and
shippers or carriers in either country may
appeal to it for relief from what they may
deem oppressive methods or regulations or
excessive or unreasonable rates.
1t was finally decided TO recommend that
the arrangement should be concluded by
treaty, rather than by legislation When
the treaty is completed 1t will be submitted
to the Senate, and it is believed that it VIII

New Jersey Senator Declar
Smith Has No Chance.

Senator William c. Gebhardt, of Hunter
don County, n. J., one Of the Democratic
leaders of the upper house of the New
Jersey Legislature, said yesterday that
those persons who are alarmed about the
selection Of James Smith. jr., as John
Kean'S successor need worry no longer,
because there was not possibility of
Smith being chosen. unless he should get
help from the Republican side. Mr. Geb-
hardt defended the candidacy Of James E.

ship Of Governor-elect Wilson.

as a gross Insult said the Hunterdon
Senator but, on the contrary. I am high
Iy pleased with it. l am glad that the
Deocratic party of the State OF New Jer-
sey has at last leader who is not con-
trolled by the corporations and special in
terests OF the country, and especially one
who is not the New Jersey representative
of the corporations and special interests OF
the entire country. Dr. Wilson is not
heading a movement to evade the ConSti-

sisting that the members Of the Legislature
shall properly perform their constitutions

MAKE WHAT NOISE YOU LIKE
Police Won't Tolerate Confetti,
Ticklers or New Year RoWdyism.

Everything in the line of noise that
human ingenuity has invented or can in
vent for that occasion will be permitted
by the police tonight, New Years Eve.
Tin horns. rattlers, whistling Instruments
drums that squeak like a hen and fendish
instruments that emit pathetic squeaks as
Of a baby III distress, all will be allowed by
the police.
Sounds pretty sweet, eh? But wait a
minute. Noise is the only thing that will
be allowed. Everything else which New
Workers have always regarded as their
sacred right on New Years Eve has been
tabooed. That is, there will be no such
thing as 'ticklers' or confetti; gone and
forgotten will be the lockstep and fivfng
wedge, dear to the hearts of the college
students. In short, everything in the form
OF rowdyism will be stopped.
Lower Broadway will be cleared of all
vehcular traffic in the vicinity of Trinity
Church. The crowds that flow up and
down Broadway will move south on the
west side of the street and north on the
east side, and will have to keep in mo-
tion. Automobiles Will proceed at slow
pace while the crowds are ushering in the
