TO RETAIN AMATEUR STATUS
Head of Amateur Athletic Union Dis
approves of Competition With
Professionals.

Alfred J. Lill, Jr., president of the
Amateur Athletic union, is positive
in his declarations that the union will
not want competitions between anna
teurs and professionals. He said that
while he was at the head of the organ
iZation he would do all in his power to
prevent permission being granted for
such races.
II have the greatest respect for the
professional" said Mr.. Lii, "but he
should remain in his own class. The
trouble arises when a professional
masquerades as an amateur and tries
to compete as such. know that pro
fessionals and amateurs meet in golf,
cricket and even horse riding con-
tests, but the practice cannot be car
ried out in track and field events un-
der the A. A. U. sanction.
81 am decidedly opposed to this, and
hope the day will arrive when it
shall pass away
The president said he believed in
ternational contests did tremendous
good for the sport, and se hoped that
many such events would be arranged.
In speaking about the growth of
athletics in this country and the good
derived therefrom, Mr.. Lill said:
Since was boy track and field ath-
etics and every other branch Of sport
have increased tenfold. Up in our
home in New England sports are on
the increase and certainly not on the
wane The athletics do a world of
good. 1 am positive that American
boys are much stronger and healthier

outside stake. Find the center of the
middle hole as before. When these
holes are brought opposite each other
one end of the back slab will lie 16
inches nearer the center of the road.
way than the front one. The holes
should be two inches in diameter Care
must be taken to hold the auger plumb
in boring these holes in order that
the stakes shall fit properly.
The two slabs should be held 80
inches apart by the stakes. The
stakes should taper gradually toward
the ends. There should be no shoul-
der at the point where the stakes en-
ter the slab. The stakes should be
fastened in place by wedges only
When the stakes have been placed in
position and tightly wedged a brace
two inches thick and four inches wide
should be placed diagonally to them
at the ditch end. The brace should be
dropped on the front slab, so that its
lower edge shall lie within an inch OF
the ground, while the other end
should rest in the angle, between the
slab and the end stake. A strip OF
iron about three and one-half feet long
three or four inches wide, and one-halt
of an inch thick may be used for the
blade.
An ordinary trace chain is strong
enough to draw the implement, pro
vided the clevis is not fastened
through a link The chain should be
wrapped around the rear stake, then
passed over the front slab. Raising the
chain at this end of the slab allows
the earth to drift past the face of the
drag. The other end of the chain
should be passed through the hole in
the end of the slab.

Some men are born billiard players,
some achieve greatness as billiard
players, other have billiards thrust
upon them.
Young Jake Schaefer, the Chicago
cue expert, has the distinction of be-
longing to all three classes. In this
respect he is unlike any other billiard
player in the world
Jake Schaefer, the father, known as
''the wizard of billiards" was one of
the most proficient players that the
world has ever known. 1t was his
fond wish that his son follow the same
profession
The younger Schaefer inherited a
natural ability to play the game, and
also the wonderful skill and technique
of his father. Therefore, he was born
billiard player. But he also acquired
decided dislike for ivory balls and
green tablecloths. And then he had
billiards forced upon him. His dislike
for the game made him shun it, and
during the earlier years of his life he
could not be induced to handle the

CONTROL OF COLLEGE TEAMS
Present System Tends to Discourage
Initiative and SeIf-Reliance,
Essential Points.

With all due respect to our friend
the professional coach, we must admit
that there is much truth in what Presi
dent Hibben of Princeton university
has to say on the subject of student
control of college athletic teams The
present system of coaching is the
natural outgrowth of the development
of intercollegiate athletics and the de-
mand for winning teams. By engaging
experts to assist in drilling the various
teams the colleges have taken out OF
the hands Of the players themselves
the work of team development and it
is now the generally accepted prac-
tice to ALLOW the coaches to direct
every detail of play. Doctor Hibben
does not believe that responsibility for
the work of the team should be divert
ed from the players actually in the
game and placed altogether on the
shoulders of those on the side lines.
He thinks the team captain should di-
rect it's development and style of play.
One of the results of the modern prac-
tice, he says, has been to discourage
initiative and self-reliance, which he
regards as essential points in college
training, says Lafayette Courier. I'm
doubtedly the stand the Princeton
president has taken will be approved
by many educators and not few lead
ers in college athletic affairs.

ROADS IN BETTER CONDITION
SpIit-Log Drag of Great Service in
Keeping Thoroughfares in Shape
How IL Is Built.

The use of the split-log drag is i'm
portant in putting the roads in shape.
There are over 100000 miles of earth
roads In the country, and the split-iOg
drag is of great service in keeping
them in economical repair. The drag
is used in many states and in foreign
countries 1t is used with two, three,
or four horses, and is easily con
structed.
1t is mistake to construct heavy
drag. A dry red cedar log is the best
material for drag. Red elm and wal
nut when thoroughly dried are excel.
lent, and box elder, soft maple, or even
willow are preferable to oak, hickory
or ash.
The log should be seven or eight
feet long, and from ten to twelve
inches in diameter, and carefully split
down the middle. The heaviest and
best slabs should be selected for the
front. At a point on the front slab
four inches from the end that is to be
at the middle of the road locate the
center of the hole to receive a cross
stake, and 22 inches from the other
end of the front slab locate the center
for another cross stake. The hole
for the middle stake will lie on line
connecting and halfway between the
other two.
The back slab should then be placed
in position behind the other From
the end at the middle of the road
measure 20 inches for the center of
the cross stake, and six inches from
the other end locate the center Of the

cue. 1t was the earnest appeals of his
parents, their threats and chastise-
ments that compelled him to take up
the game.
After the fathers death the mother
added her final appeal and then young
Schaefer began to take real interest
in the game, or, rather, he was deter
mined to become as great a player as
his father had been. But his natural
ability had lain dormant too long and
the task was not an easy one. Now
it became a question of achieving.
And Jake has succeeded.
Although but eighteen years of age
this youngster has shown the class
and skill of a veteran Those who
have watched his game closely say
that he is certain to make as great a
player as his father He is now most
proficient at the 1872 style of playing,
but is fast developing as an expert in
other styles. He is certain to become
a champion, and is urged on by de-
termination to reach that pinnacle of
fame which his father reached

such a way that the black revolves
around the whits and gives the bat

accurate gauge on where it is coming.
This yarn was related to Christy
Mathewson the other day, and the
veteran pitcher of the Giants had one
of the best laughs in his life.
