ruling is the allowing Of the man who
hit the home run to tally. 1t is con-
tended that the man who hit the home
run should be declared out since, in
touching second base prior to the run
ner who preceded him. he technically
passed that runner on the base lines,
the penalty for which is the declaring
out of the runner who does the passing
on the base lines.
Such an argument has always seemed
foolish to me, yet there are some
mighty bright men in baseball who
will argue the correctness of such a
ruling. 1t is a play where fair play
and common sense must rule. 1t would
seem ridiculous to call a man who
knocked the ball over the fence out, be-
cause the man ahead Of him on the
bases failed to touch one Of the bags.
1t would be a grand decision to make
in, say. the deciding game Of the
worlds series.
Applying the Rule.
In some ways section two of rule IS
would cover the situation it says the
batsman is entitled to a home run if
he bats the ball outside the ground and
then touches the bases in regular or
der. On a home run, triple or a double
made inside the ground, it would still
be possible to argue the other point.

Football Situation In Colleges Is Bad
-:l:- -:I:- -:II:- -:II;- -:I:-
Too Much Like Circus Says President
Nv ]. G. BRANN.

HERE have been many boosts and
many slams at football during the
L season recently closed. The prize
criticism Of the year, however, comes
from the president Of the Mount Union
(Ohio) college which this year har-
bored the great kicker who scored 81
goals from touchdown during the year.
The Mount Union president says in
part. THE football situation in most
colleges is disgracefuL Fathers and
mothers allow their sons to be exploit
ed in the arena, for profit like circus
performers or vaudeville actors. Acad-
emies are scraped for athletic material
and inducements of all kinds are Of
fered for promising athletes.
THE men that 90 into football are
driven and coached under a profess
sional system until they have no time
for study"
And the president probably is right
There are many athletes to whom IN
ducements have been offered to go TO
certain colleges. And many Of them
have accepted these offers. The usual
inducement is free tuition, board, room
and all other expenses and certain
stipulated amount OF spending money,
which is paid in weekly instalments.
or course a nominal position is given
the athlete for which the money is sup
posed to be in compensation. But as a
rule all the real work he does OFF the
field Of play could easily be crowded
into an hour. And this is not all. The
mans railroad fare to and from his
home city and all expenses en- route
are paid and he is provided with a
good paying position during the va
cation months. Yes. indeed. The big
COLLEGES take good care of their attn
Ietes. That is, of course, provided upon
his making good.

Every athlete in college does not re
ceive compensation for representing
the school on the athletic field. But
many do. And as a rule the men 90
not think there is anything dishonor-
able in what they are doing 'So-and-
so is doing it and we would be toolish

money into something profitable IS

PERRY IS WINNER
IN BILLIARD GAME
Makes Largest Score Registered During
Tournament; Kelly Is
Defeated.

Tournament; Kelly Is
Defeated.
The click Of the worries and the ring
ing Of the bell registering billiards
was heard again Saturday and Sunday
nights in the tournament at the Gem
billiard parIors where the tournament
for the three cushion championship is
in progress. In the first game Satur-
day night Tom Kelly, whom most of
the wise heads have picked to win the
championship. was defeated by R.
Palmer by three points by score OF
40 to AZ. AS Palmer has handicap
Of 10 the real score was Palmer 80,
Kelly AZ. This game was big sur
prise to tine followers of the game as
it was believed that Kelly would have
little or no difficulty IN disposing of
his opponent. Palmer, however, showed
a splendid game and led all the way.
In the second game, Fred Hardiker,
ten point man. won over c. Williams
who is asked to go only to 30, by
score Of 40 to 81. The handicaps given
these two bring their score up to so
to SO in favor of Hardiker. In this
game Hardiker recovered his handl-
cap early in the game and after adding
a point or two cOntented himself with
holding his opponent safe.
Sunday night brought R. Palmer and
z. Beardsley together in the first game,
both carrying handicap of ten. The
former won rather easily, the result of
the play being 40 to &c. which, with
the handicaps, makes it so to As.
Palmer went into a long early lead and
thereafter played a safe game. Under
this style of play Beardsley crept up
a little but was never able to draw up
on even terms with his opponent. Had
Palmer played the same game through
out the match that he did in the early
stages he would in all probability have
won by much larger score.
In the second game Sunday night

-HE failure of a base runner to
touch each base in proper order
Il is the cause of a majority Of the
arguments that come up on the ball
field. It is really remarkable-the
many peculiar conditions that can arise
from the failure Of a certain runner
10 comply with one Of the simplest con-
Cfftions Of baseball A player, to prop
erlv. score a run, is required to touch
first second, third and then home base
In their proper order. II the players
would only comply with that rule,
many an umpire would be saved an
unnecessary riot, and many Of the
disputes that mar the game would
never arise.
Probably just as long as baseball IS
plaved. players will continue TO cut
bases They will cut them a foot, yet
insist that they touched every base
in the center, and often they honestly
feel that way about it.
Gains Very Little.
Very little is gainted by cutting
base. It is more or less force Of habit
I have always believed if the bases
were made about half the the present
size as to thickness, fewer bases would
be cut Fast runners hate to touch
bag suuarely, because of the chance
they take Of turning their ankle. In
an effort to touch it as lightly as pos
Bible, they often miscalculate and miss
Il by a fairly wide margin Until
rule is placed in the rule book that
definitely defines the situation. a dis
pute will always arise as to what &C
tion should be taken on a runner who
touches a base after the same base has
been missed by the preceding runner.
EMPIRES are almost a unit in their in
depreciation Of this play, yet the cor
rectness Of the adopted Interpretation
is disputed in some quarters. An editor
OF a prominent sporting paper, regard
ed as an authority on rules, takes is
sue with the almost universal ruling on
the play Very recently, / received
letter asking for information on the
point I have under discussion. / will
quote the letter:
Bases filled, no outs. Batter hits
home run. Man originally on first cuts
second. Ball is returned to second
base. How many runs count2'
Technical Passing Of Runner.
On such plays umpires invariably
rule that all runs count except that of
the man who failed to touch second.
He is declared out for a failure to touch
that base, after the ball has been re-
turned to the fielder and held on that
particular bag. It is the consensus Of
opinion that the man who hit the home
run cannot be penalized because Of the
failure Of the preceding runner to obey
the rules. The point disputed in such
