 he will remain so. It follows that he
 has under this regime all of his time for study; after getting into the spirit of preparing his lessons and observ-
 ing his regular routine of work in his first year it is more natural for him
 to continue so throughout the re-
 mainder of his college course. It is
 not only a good thing for the man
 himself, but for the college athletes in general.
 There is no doubt of. the advantage
 gained by the small colleges being
 able to use men in their freshman
 year, >a as this gives them more. ma terial to pick from and their services for four years, whereas the larger colleges have less to choose from and can use their men but three years at the most. .z- ..s..se.. --ge.z..,--x "I think it would be a good thing for these small colleges to adopt this rule if for no other reason than to uplift the standard of their. athletics and benefit the. students as well.

Baker Receives
 Many Stage Offers
Hero of Series Besiedge by Vaudeville and Moving Picture Managers

Philadelphia, Oct 20-While a crowd of theatrical managers, moving pie ture men. magazine editors, photo graphers, press agents and patent medicine fakirs were clamoring at his door and begging him to honor them by accepting wheelbarrows full of coin, Frank Baker told select audi ence of newspaper men how he ac- quired the ability that enables him to c1out baseballs over fences for home runs at opportune times.
 This modest member of the Athlet- fame, absolutely refuses to take any credit for his achievements. He gives it all to Connie Mack.
 Of course" he said, apologetically, 'I've played baseball ever since I was a kid in Maryland, and I always. could lose the ball if T got a good swing at it.
 '3But I had to learn how to bat all over again when I tackled profes- sional ball and got up against the big league pitchers.
 'sWhen in the Tri-State League I found that I couldn't take a full swing at everything that came over and connect, so I got into the habit of catching the bat up short, choking it, we say. and chopping the ball over short or third base.
 But when I got into the major league, I found that such tactics would aot always work. Then Con- nie Mack took a hold of men and practically taught me how to bat all over again.
 "In addition, such batters as Col lins, Davis, Murphy and Oldring were advising me every day, and that help ed lot
 Collins, who bats now just ahead of me. Is a great base stealer. He has all the catchers and pitchers guessing, and getting to first so often. he has been wonderful help to me. Collins will make a hit or pass.
 Then I come up. Eddie is jump ing around first and the catcher and pitcher are up in the air. They don't know whether Collins is going down or not.
 Maybe in this way I'll get the pitcher in the hole with two Oalls and no strikes. The catcher may signal for pitch out for fear Collins will steal on him. Now most batters with two balls will let the third go by, and
