WEAkENs HARVARD TEAM.
Probation In Athletics Causes Loss Of
Several Stars.

Cambridge Mass, June 12.-Proba-
ton, the bane of all college athletes
has been having merry" run at Har-
ward. and as result the student coun-
ell, after hearing graduates connected
with the university sports speak in
favor of n remedy for this state of af-
fairs, has just appointed committee
To study the existing situation from all
angles and TO report its Investigations
TO that body.
Coach Percy d. Haughton of the
eleven and j. Wells Farley, head of the
football committee, were the men who
appeared before the council and dwelt
at length on the inroads probation is
making i'm Harvard athletes. Football
bids fair To lose several promising men
unless studies are strictly attended to.
Jim Gilman, varsity tackle last fall.
has already been forced to leave the
university temporarily, and on his re-
turn next fall will still be ineligible
for the team. r. y. Hitchcock. a
freshman star, is another football play
er forced out of college. Fred With
ington's status at present prevents
him from participating in any sport.
The baseball team lost Boyle, Erwin
and Heyer. all men Of great promise,
ana track lost Rod Tower a member
of Harvards champion short distance
indoor relay team.
The council soon after listening tol
Messrs. Haughton and Farley. appoint-
ed a committee to investigate the best
methods toward creating sentiment
against probation, the members OF

FAIR PLAY MUST
Be MAINTAINED
Popularity of National Pastime
Demands Moral Honesty

Cincinnati O., June 12.-"There is
hardly a boy or man in this whole
country who does not follow the great
national game of baseball with as
much earnestness as he waits for his
breakfast in the morning. The innu-
ence that it yields is tremendous. For
this reason, If for no other, fair play
should at all times characterize the
methods used in conducting the game
If we permit one team to seize upon
players of another without regard to
moral or legal obligation, we are GO
ing to undermine its whole structure
and the game will lose it's hold on the
public"
This was the sentiment expressed to-
day by Attorney George w. Pepper of
Philadelphia representing William NJ.
Killifer. Jr., catcher with the Philadel-
phia Nationals. and the owners of the
team, when he stood before the United
States circuit court of appeals and OPP
posed the idea for an injunction to
prevent Killifer from playing with the
Philadelphia club made by the owners
Of the Chicago Federal league club.
Attorney l.. T.. Gates, representing
the Chicago Federals, made the first
argument. He said that Killifer told
President Gilmore and other officers
of the Federal league that he was free
to make contract for his services and
was not i'm any manner bound to the
Philadelphia Nationals.
Judge Denison put the question:
Did not the owners of the Federal
league club know of the reserve clause
in Kllfer's contract"
Attorney Gates REPLIED Even if
they had knowledge of it, it was only
general knowledge and they still would
have the right to offer work to KILL
fer, inasmuch as he had told them he
was not under contract to any one
else"
At the conclusion of the arguments.
the judges announced that they would
take the case under consideration and
would hand down a decision later.
