There is no doubt that Fred Merkie

Cal complains that he has only
three pitchers for the world tour, but
the Giants went through the Worlds
Series with only one.
1t is claimed that the world tour
will leave the athletes in poor shape
for next seasons work, but any man
who can survive that trip is tough
enough to go through regular
schedule without batting an eve.
In view of the fact that the George

go to the highest bidder, we are will
ing to take chance and bid five (5)

Opinion Is Cleaned From Re-

From All Sections.

NEW YORK. March 21.-Prof. Mich
olson. secretary OF the National Athletic
Assoc .ation, who some time ago sent out
questions on training to colleges all over
the country deduces from the replies he
has received that getting students to go
to bed early il the hardest thing train
ers have to do. The questions sent out
were on eligibility training, physical
condition and finances. By way Of sum-
mary Prof. Nicholson says:
"Ninety-two colleges (about so per
cent? enforces the one-year rule. OF
these thirty-one enforce the rule in mod
flied form, debarring only those who
have represented on an athletic team
the college they first attended, and four
administer the rule only for half year.

toned freshmen only. Ninety-two out

Qess than so per cent? debar students

of l3i colleges Qess than 40 per cent?

Considering the answers on training,
Prof. Nicholson has this report: Fifteen
colleges report that they enforce the
rules absolutely; 81, strictly II. fair
ly:' 4, not very well ) 2, as much as
possible : /. not as strictly as we wish ::
know. Twelve report that they sue

the rule requiring the students to go to

|DUBUC MAY Be ONE
OF THE "HOODOOS"
King Cole, Alexander, and
Lefty Russell Are Some Who
Have Blown in One Year.

NEW ORLEANS. March 2L-you who
believe in jinxes, hoodoos. and other
grim things, what do you think about
the chances of Jean Dubuc's making
good this coming season with the
Tigers?
Remembering that he was the sensa-
tion among the first-year-out huriers
in the American League last season and
bringing to mind the recollection OF
the black cats and other dire things
that have followed first year pitching
sensations, what odds are you willing
to lay that the jinx gets Jean?
Swing that searchlightj out behind
the shin and you can see the wrecks
of two or three notable hurlers who
burned UP the big leagues during their
first year in the big pond.
There's King Cole. the Bay City bar
her. for instance. Hi Cole was a won-
der with the Chicago Cubs in 1910. He
not only helped them to National
league pennant. but he whipped the
Mackmen in the worlds series. although
he failed to get credit for the game be-
cause he was taken out in the eighth
inning when the score was tied TO
make room for pinch hitter: Bnt IN
and he went back to shaves and hair
cuts via Pittsburgh.

is another example OF the faculty OF
Young lights to giimmer and fade after

man was dazzler for the PhillIes. Last
wear while he wasn't exactly tizzle
there were twenty pitchers in the Ma
tional League that had better records
than he.

THREE MEETSOFF
FOR G. U. TRACKMEN
Blue and Gray Athletic Council
to Call Off Meets With Navy,
Hopkins, and Virginia.
A., A. is LACKING IN FUNDS
Athletes Will Take in the Penn
Relay Games and the Annual
IntercoIIegiates.
A, A. is LACKING IN FUNDS
By BRYAN MORSE.

Georxetown, will probably cancel the
track engagements with the United
States Naval Academy and the dual
meet with Johns Hopkins, and will IN
all probability be forced to call of the
enxagement with the University OF Nir-
xinia. according to information received
from the Hilltop today.
After the various wins during the
winter the management made pre-
tentious schedule of outdoor track
meets for the team during the coming
sprinp. which were to culminate in the
visit to the annual intercollegiate field
and track games at Harvard.
The Penn relays were also recorded
on the long list of engagements for the
Blue and Gray track stars. and the
management was resting content In the
knowledge that Georgetown would. have
a Ane representation. 1t is now an
nounced that the tentative schedule
will probably be called on, as funds
from the Hilltop treasury are not suf-
fcieut to warrant so many dates for
the athletes.
II seems certain, however, that the
Penn games and the annual fntercollegt-
ate games at the Harvard Stadium VIII
be taken in by the Blue and Gray
track team Georgetown has made ap-
plication for the big college classic and
will have to send at least three rum
ners to the event
while no official announcement Is
Forthcoming from the Hilltop as yet 1t
is expected that the athletic council will
have a session within week to notify
the Naval Academy that the team will
be unable to come down on May TO- and
Hopkins will also be made aware of the
impossibility of the appearance of the
Blue and Gray team.
The dual meet with Virginia has not
been taken up as yet and 1t is thought
that there is good chance to allow the
track team to take on the Orange and
Blue athletes in their promised meet.
The stringency in the treasury has
caused the change of policy II is under
stood, and the Blue and Gray is today
finding that il bit OF a little more than
it could chew in scheduling so many
track dates this year.
Six outdoor meets were carded for
the Georgetown men and Of these 1t
least three will have 10 be sidestepped.
The meets in order were calculated o
bring best possible results for the big
event at Cambridge and were prepar-
ing for a win In the collegiate games In
this section of the country

Gil meeting will be held in a weeks time
