STUDENTS TO PLAY BASEBALL
Illinois Senate Would Permit Cor
Ieglans to Receive Coin for Their
Prowess on the Diamond.


The University of Illinois senate is
sued report of its recommendations
to the western intercollegiate confer
ence on the question of amateurism.
which recommendation are now be-
ing considered by the conference
board. While the senate did not
countenance playing In organized ball
or as regular thing, its stand Is
that occasional playing on organized
teams for money is not wrong.
The University of Illinois recon-
mends the amendment of rule so
that it shall read as follows:
"A student shall be ineligible to
represent his college or university In
any intercollegiate athletic contest
under the following conditions:
Calf he Is or has been mem
Der of any team playing under the ma
tional agreement Of professional base
ball clubs or has engaged in contests
with teams playing under this agree
ment.
"(B)-If he is or has been menn-
Der of any so-called outlaw team.
Golf he has played on any team
regularly for salary, so that playing
has been his vocation or principal
calling for the period of his associa-
ton with said team.
Golf he has ever drawn a salary
for nominal service In some alleged
employment while his athletic work
has been really his main service.
"(E)-If he is or has at any time
during his college course been a
member of any athletic team Of any
athletic Tub.
"(F)-If he Is receiving or has at
any time received compensation as
coach, trainer or instructor in physi-
cal training.
Golf in term time he engages
in athletic contests as a representa-
tive Of any athletic organization not
connected with the college"
The University of Illinois also pro-
poses that in place Of an eligibility
committee in each university, which
passes on eligibility of students in
that university, there be created a
single committee from the various
universities to rule finally upon ques-
lions of eligibility, and in doing so
to enforce the true spirit of amateur
ism without regard to trivial infrac-
lions.

at Vicksburg and the indomitable
Nogi learned by the failure of the first
rush attack at Port Arthur.
In week, any army that has
spades and few of the resources of
material which should be part of the
storehouse at it's base should make
such a position as that of the series
of rising hills back of Tchatalja fully
tenable against any but siege attack,
unless there was room for a flank at
tack.
Turks Turn the Tables.
And the breadth of the position
open to infantry approach in any at
tempt at storming was only 16 miles,
while from either sea side Of the. mar
row strip of peninsula the Turkish
navy could bring into play more pow
erful guns than any Demetrieff had at
his disposal.
At the same time there is to be
kept in view the generally accepted
tenet that you must not send in
fantry against any we'll entrenched po-
sition until its batteries are silenced
or it is known that they can be kept
under control during the infantry at
tack by a well concentrated fire of
your own batteries.
Demetrieff used his guns for a day
in trying to develop the strength and
location Of the enemy's batteries. But
the Turks would not be drawn. At last
the tables were turned.
Meanwhile Adrianople also was tell
ing. You may discuss as much as you
please whether the original plan of
the Bulgarian staff was to mask this
fortress or to take it by storm, the
fact remains that the only result was
to mask it, and the lesson was that
any garrison in the rear of an advan-
cling army, though it is held securely
in investment. remains mighty force
in being for the enemy's purpose.
Nature meant Adrianople to be a
fortress. Past it on the south flows
the Martha river, taking its origin In
the Balkans and blowing it's way
across the alluvial lowlands of Thrace
to the sea. A strong bridge crosses it
on the line of the Constantinople high
way at Mustapha Pasha, some twenty
five miles from Adrianople.
This bridge, which is not far from
the Bulgarian frontier. the Turks left
intact, a characteristic piece of care
lessness in the earlier part of the war
in keeping with all other signs of Tur-
kish decentralization and wrongheaded-
ness, which might easily lead the Bull
garians to think that Adrianople would
not resist brilliant onslaught.
Mustapha Pasha became the head
quarters of the second Bulgarian army.

made OF the wounded, nor even OF the
weather, if it were bad, for bad wealth
er might tell the enemy that the roads
were bad
While many an imaginary account,
because it had the similitude of mar
rative which characterizes all con-
vincing fiction, was hailed as real
war correspondence, the Bulgarian
staff, when it came to actual reports
of actions exclusive of massacres),
was scrupulously exact and exasperat-
ingly late and brief.
All praise by the press kept the ball
Of the prestige of victory rolling. 1t
helped to convince the powers and
the Turk that the Bulgarian army
was irresistible. The stage climax
of the whole campaign would be the
fall of Adrianople. Therefore were
the correspondents moved to Musta-
pha Pasha just as Lule Burgas was
being won; and Constantinople, being
then supposedly defended only by a
demoralized army, which could not
make stand, every report from Mus
tapha Pasha which showed that
Adrianople was on the point of capt.
ulation added to the stage effect OF
Bulgarian triumph.
Turks Defy the Bulgars.
AS the first Bulgarian army drew
near the Tchatalja lines, the mise en-
scene was complete; but Nazim
Pasha, making use of the elapsed time
to fortify the Tchatalja lines, rather
than submit to the humiliating terms
offered, babe the Bulgarian hosts
come on"
Success had turned the heads even
of the Bulgarian staff. They had be-
gun to think that the old fighting quail
ity was out of the Turk and so willing
was the Bulgarian infantry to under
go slaughter that it was only case
of recording another charge of flesh
against shrapnel and automatic gun
fire, and the day was won.
Alas, an old principle of war, deal
ing with an impossibility of the same
order as squaring the circle in math-
| ematics, was now to bring generalship
| back from the clouds to solid earth.
You can take strong positions in
front only with time by sapping and
mining and all the weary operations
| of siege, as the indomitable Grant
learned by the failure of his firsh rush

Ancient Science.

1t is generally supposed that those
who combated the opinion that the
earth was sphere when Columbus
proposed his great voyage were only
giving expressions to opinions that
had always been entertained. But the
fact is that long before the Christian
era the Greek and Egyptian philoso-
pliers entertained the idea that the
earth was round and knew vastly
more about eclipses, the motions of
the moon and other astronomical mat
tiers than many do even today. The
idea of Columbus had been anticipated
by the ancient philosophers by more
than sixteen centuries.

SILVER BELT FOR RUNNERS
James e. Sullivan Hits Upon Happy
Idea to Maintain Interest In Long
Distance Events.

Prior to the selection of each
Olympic team, distance running
jumps suddenly into prominence and
then, Immediately after the world s
championship gaines are held, interest
in this branch Of athletic competition
seems to die out. OF course distance
races are held at a great many track
and field meets, but in the majority
of instances the fields of runners are
more or less mediocre.
This means the selection commit
tee does not have as many runners,
of marked ability, from whom to Sc
lect as it would like, and James e.
Sullivan has hit upon happy idea,
which will undoubtedly tend to main
tain interest in distance running
throughout the winter as we'll as the
summer season.
He has discussed the matter with
William (SparroW) Robertson on sew
eral occasions, and they have decided
that the best way to accomplish this
is to offer silver belt as aperpetual
prize, to become the property of the
runner who has scored the most
points from the time at which the
trophy is first competed for, until
within about three months or so, OF
the selection of the American Olympic
marathon team.
The trophy will in all probability
be competed for the first time at a set

Simplify Life.

II do believe in simplicity. 1t is as
tonishing as well as sad, how many
trivial affairs even the wisest man
thinks he must attend to in day;
how singular an affair he thinks he
must omit. When the mathematician
would solve difficult problem he
first frees the equation of all incum-
brances and reduces 1t to its sim
plest terms. So simplify the prob
lem of life, distinguish the necessary
