ent at least, that the baseball public
desires q sharp, slappy worlds series
as a climax p the season. Long
drawn out play, covering ten days or
two weeks, according to weather con.
ditions, appears to be a hazardous
undertaking ulder present circum-
stances and it is extremely doubtful
II there will be any effort to alter,
during 1915, the regulations now gov
erning the worlds series.
That a football coach, to produce
the best results, should make coach
ing a regular business. is the opinion
of William tBill) Edwards, the fam
Gus Princeton guard. Edwards, in
stating his views on the future coach
ing system at Princeton, said recent.
ly: .saja.a
Il believe absolutely in the one
man system. Football has become a
regular business, and in any regular
business, cne man mus stand at the
head. There should never be consid-
cred any time any mar but a Prince
ton football man for the position.
Princeton has numerous men who a
handle this job successfully, but
when such a man is chosen, he must
make football his regular business and
give his entire time to this work.
Such a man must be we'll paid, and
this man should, ! believe, have en-
tire selection of the coaches under
him."
Awards of national championship
prizes and state championship medals
have been announced by the United
States Revolver association in con-
1ection with the recent outdoor con.

ously in different sections of the

vailed during many of the competi.

ners in each class: Match A, A. P.
Lane, New York; Match B, George

All signs point to an active season
for college rowing in 1915. Efforts
are being made by various bodies and
individuals throughout the country to
establish the sport upon a broader and
more staple foundation and it is be-
lieved that more crews will be on
the water next spring than ever be-
fore. In the east the recent organ
ization of the Collegiate Rowing asso.
citation is expected to greatly increase
the popularity of rowing in the east.
The new association is intended to
serve a double purpose, to promote
the interest in rowing among the col
leges and schools Of clhe country and
to establish an annual clearing house
for managers to arrange early season
races sr ISL PIN,
The managers of crews will coop

atory schools of the country, to es
tablish al interest in rowing among
those schools which now do not have
rowing as a part Of their athletics,
and to increase the interest in row..
ing in those schools that do. 4

very ambitious one and may require
several years to work out, since sew

crews. KeoKuk, Ia, and Peoria, H.,
have been approached regarding the
possibility of financing an annual re-
gatta, but nothing definite has been
accomplished. It appears likely, how.
ever, that Atlantic and Pacific coast
crews will meet on the water next
summer either at Poughkeepsie or
San Francisco, where the exposition
officials will stage a college regatta.
Several eastern college crews have
been invited to row on the Oakland
course, including Pennsylvania, Cor"
nell, Columbia and Harvard, If the
races are held during the summer
vacation period and the oarsme1's ex.

two crews is not unlikely.
