OPINIONS DIFFER AS.
TO BASE BALL SLANG
College Professors Like It,
While Comiskey Wants
Straight English.

CHICAGO, August 12.-Charles A.
Comiskey, owner Of the Chicago Ameri-
cans, likes base ball reports best when
they are written in plain English. while
professors at the University of Chicago
deplore the possibility of the elimination
Of slang from the accounts OF games.
These unexpected attitudes were learned
today In a vote being taken by local
daily to determine just how the followers
Of the national pastime want the games
described.
II am in favor of clean, plain Eng
lish story of a base ball game" said
Comiskey, who has just returned from
the woods Of northern Wisconsin. What
readers want to know is who won the
game and how it was won. When these
facts are covered up with lot of useless
words the reader is apt to grow tired
Il think 1t would be pretty tame to re-
port base ball in plain, ordinary English. -
said Prof. Nathaniel Butler There Is a
species OF humOr on the sporting page
which is enjoyable. We want the pic
turesQue in the reports, but the writer
shows a defect when 1t is impossible for
the layman to understand him."
Several other professors at the univer-
sity declared their preference for stories
sprinkled with slang.
