the cOmmerclal1sm of college ath-
letics.
He protested against system OF
forcing students to play, and objects
to a coach paid a magnificent salary
and commissioned to win games and
maintain the public support of the
teams. That is pretty hot shot for
some of the hypocritical utterances
that have been heard about the spirit
of college sports.
intercollegiate sport would not be
conducted unless it paid expenses.
That is recognized generally, is a
commonsense view and college men
gain nothing by trying to deny it.
They rail about the general public
and the newspapers, but without aid
from these two sections there would
be no intercollegiate sport.
Ty Cobb, part owner of hunting
preserve and trainer of hunting dogs.
There are two titles that may be add

est ball player.
Ty, with E. C. Rogers, a clothing
manufacturer; John Philip Sousa,
Jr., and several other men has
bought a plantation of 5000 acres
along the Savannah river in Georgia
and will use it as hunting grounds.
They will stock the place with game
and go there every winter for the
seasons session with the rifle.
Cobb has been assigned the job of
training dogs to be used on the
hunts. He can prepare dog for
hunt as well as he can bone" a bat
for a campaign against the pitchers
of the American league.
The leading batter and baserunner
of the major leagues would rather
hunt than play ball. However, by
playing ball in the summer he is go
ing to be able to hunt in style in the

Only he and his partners in the
ownership of the preserve will he al

time this winter. He and three 9TH
ers got IS quail and one wild turkey
in one day.
By having private hunting grounds
Cobb will overcome one of the han
dicaps he has had to contend with
in the past He will escape enter
tainments. Wherever the Georgia
Peach goes in the south he is feted.
This winter when Cobb and his party
landed in a little village near Angus
ia, Ca, from where they were going
to operate, they we're met by crowd
of citizens.
A big feast had been planned in
honor of the famous son of the south
and instead of being able to start
right out after game, Ty and his par
ty had to officiate at the big feed.
When they returned from the woods
at night another feast was laid for
them.
Cobb is criticized every spring be-
cause he reports late at the Tiger
training camp. Ty says it is not be-
cause he wants to be high falutin',
but because by hunting all winter he
keeps in god shape and all he needs
to do in the spring is to throw few
balls and he is ready for diamond
work.

r would be foolish for the Levy Court Of New Castle
county to investigate itself
1t would be equally foolish and infinitely more harm
fu were the Chamber of Commerce TO permit itself to
be used by anyone interested in political or partisan
controversies TO involve it in their fights.
Even If the Levy Court Commissioners or any Of
them have been guilty of sins OF omission commits
sion It is scarcely in the nature Of things to expect
them to convict themselves Neither is II in the nature
of things for the public TO accept as conclusive any
clean bill of health they may give to themselves,
In other words, investigation such as is pro-
posed in the resolution offered at the last meeting Of
the Membership Council of the Chamber Of Commerce,
referred the board Of directors for further
sideration would not only emanate from organiza
that should hold itself free and clear from parti

worthless because it would carry with It adequate
power to subpoena witnesses, to compel the produc
ton of hooks aud papers, to force the attendance
and testimony of unwilling witnesses whose evidence
might be needed to supplement, confirm rebut the
testimony of volunteer witnesses.
In fact. it would be the she'll OF nvestiga-

substantially the position before the public

serve to dispel in the public mind suspicion

Of the Chamber of Commerce split wide open the
question whether that body should permit itself to be

~ REAT BRITAIN and France could not reasonably

Dardanelles nankod as is with forts and batteries
and with its waters brstng with mines without suf
foring severe losses 1t not surprising, therefore,
that two British warships and French warship
have been sunk and that other washps have been dam
aged in the fierce fighting that has been in progress
there as a result OF the effort of the allies TO smash
their way through to Constantinople. The disasters
seemingly were due to floating mines which had been
set adrift in waters that previously had been cleared
of fixed mines and looked upon being safe for
the operations of the warships.
That such losses had been discounted by the British
is shown by the fact that other old British cruisers
were on their way the Dardanelles to take the places
of any ships that might be sunk and had almost reached
there when the Irresistible the Ocean and the Bouve
we're destroyed That that steps
have been perfected to cope with the floating mine
trouble the British battle line win be strong ever
through replacement the units that have been sunk
Similar requirements doubtless will be made by
France
The narrow part of the Dardaneles is admittedly a
hard nut for the allies to crack. They TO think,
however they will succeed in doing IL and are
willing to make large sacrifices in order to reach their
Mosem objective the Bosporus. It is likely that
