CUT F0UR-MILE CREW RACE
Columbia and University of Pennsyl-
vania Consent to Plan-RelieVes
Strain on Oarsmen.

There is reason to believe that the
last four-mile astern intercollegiate
sight-oared race has been rowed at
Poughkeepsie, N. Y, on the Hudson
river, and that the 1914 varsity eight
race will be over three-mile course.
It is understood that Columbia and the
University of Pennsylvania have prac-
tically agreed to this, and that Cor
nell, however unwilling, will have to
agree, because there are but three
colleges In the association and ma
jority rules. What effect, if any, this
will have on the New London regatta
where Harvard and Yale have their
annual four-mile battle, is not known,
but it is the elimination of years of
agitation on the part OF some of the
colleges on account Of the strain on
the oarsmen and, undoubtedly, hurried
by the action of the Naval academy
in cutting the distance of it's crews are
to race down to the Henley distance
of one mile and $50 yards by direction
of medical experts.

AMONG THE HOCKEY PLAYERS
intercollegiate League Will Not Be
Revived, but Big Eastern Schools
Will Have Clubs.

With the passing of baseball and
football, the followers of sport are
turning their attention to forms of
competition popular during the winter
months.
There already is much activity evil
dent among the hockey players, and
the indications point to a season of
unusual popularity for the Canadian
game. In those cities where artificial
Kinks or freezing weather is assured,
the schedule makers are busy prepar-
ing long lists of exhibition and cham
pionship playing dates.
Plans are under way for the open
ing of the amateur league seasons in
New York, Boston, Syracuse, Cleve-
land, st. Paul, Montreal and Toronto,
and the managers OF the various col
lege sevens have already booked a
number of exhibition and intervarsity
matches.
The intercollegiate Hockey league
appears unlikely to be revived, but
Yale, Harvard and Princeton will play
round-robin series of three games
against each of the two other col
leges, and both Cornell and Columbia
will have sevens on the ice Harvard
will meet some of the best of the
Canadian amateur teams at the Bos-
ton rink, and there also will be sew
eral international matches at New
York between the leading athletic
club sevens and those of the Canadian
amateur organizations
Yale and Princeton players expect
to make the usual Christmas holiday
trips to Cleveland and other middle
western cities, playing exhibition
games against local teams.

IMMENSE WAR FUND ON HAND
Major Leagues Have $2,500,0oo Ready
to Fight Any Outlaw Baseball
Movements-Not Frightened.

The American and National leagues
have on hand joint fund of more
than $4,000 to be used in fighting
any outlaw baseball movements. The
threat Of the Federal league to war
on the major league organizations this
year has caused one Of the major
league magnates to declare that the
war talk did not brighten the big
leagues and that they long had been
preparing for a war. He stated that
for ten years each club had been as
sessed 10 per cent. of its net earnings
and this sum was placed IN the treas
ury of the two leagues, under superVr
sion of the national commission to De
used in emergency.
In addition to this fund the natlona
commission has about 100000 itseh'
the amount left of the $4,000 which
it has received for its share of the
nine world series battles which it na9
conducted.

REFORM IN BASEBALL TALK
Gibberish of Some Sporting Writers
Not Pleasing to Average Fam
Plain Story Is Favored.

A country is counted substantial &c
it begins to acquire literature of its
own, and country's games assume
an air of permanency as they claim
their own vernacular. The present
agitation for a reform in baseball Ian.
guage reminds us that baseball has
woven itself enduringly into the fabric
of our national existence.
Most fans will admit the desirabilitv
of reforming the vernacular to the av.
tent only of making use of the legti.
mate technical terms instead of all
the nonsense which some sport writarg
can think of. But the reform is not IN
extend to the point of trying to divest
the games OF it's own technique. The
object is not so much to make it I'm.
derstandable to the initiated with q
knowledge of the game as to the real
fan. The man who does not under
stand baseball naturally would not
understand it's legal phraseology anv.
how. When he learns the game he
will learn its language, says the Oma,
ha Bee.
So the fans wishes are the ones to
be consulted. The Intelligent fan is
often utterly disguised at the bur.
lesque style of writing. We would
much prefer straightforward story
describing what really took place, and
that can always be done without sac.
rificing either wit or snappiness.
