The defeats of Yale and PennsyI-
yania are no longer unusual happen
ings. Both were beaten for the second
time this season last Saturday. WASH
ington and Jefferson's victory over
Yale was the second In succession. The
little Pennsylvania collegians' victory
is the more notable because Il was

year. The University of Pennsylvania
defeat by Pittsburgh had been expect
ed, though no one dreamed that the
Phiiadeiphians could hold their Pitts
burgh rivals to a score Of I4-T.
The surprising thing about Yale's
game was the fact that the Ellis have

succeeded twenty-five times. No won

to make matters worse Yale has lost
the great Lexore and Easton from her
back field because Il was found that
these men had played summer base
ball for their board and expenses.
Not In a good many years has a team

as the greatest eleven on the gridiron.

The Summer Ball EVIL.
There is hardly any word in the Eng
Iish language which has more defini-
lions and interpretations than ANA
teur" Harry Legore. the all-around
Yale athlete. and four of his team
mates have been disqualified for all
lime from amateur athletics because IN

as their board and room.
That is strictly against YaIe's ANA
teur rules and on their confession Of
he error which. they maintain. they
made in ignorance. they are debarred
rom all athletics.
To the public the offense Of which
hey were guilty seems SO trivial that
hey ought not TO be barred. and al

would not relent. Perhaps these men

more than college track athletes are
allowed to do continually. For example.
