NEW YORK, Feb. 10.-Unless

Rajah Is no stranger to the Ma

were pretty well noised around
when he was serving a st. Louis

with the Cubs last year.

COLLEGE BOYS Want TO PLAY SUMMER BALL
FOR MONEY, we'll, WHY SHOULDN'T They DO IT?
BY HUGH S. FULLERTON.

The problem of summer base
ball for college players is with US
again; the debate as to whether
college players shall be permitted
to play and accept remuneration
during vacation is stirring many
schools.
The forces favoring summer
baseball appear to have made
gains.
Last fall | decided to make
rather an exhaustive inquiry into
this question. | selected three
players on each of 40 college
teams covering the entire coun-
try. | did not know half a dozen
of these boys personally and
many of them | did not know
excepting by their last names.
i wrote personal, confidential
letters to each, pledging myself
to secrecy as to their identity.
asked them to give me their
opinion as to summer baseball.
l received replies from 6S out
of the 100. Five schools sent no
replies at all. Evidently the three
boys in those schools talked
things over and decided not to
answer. In several cases one
player replied for all three, after
discussing the questions with
them and in several other cases I
learned that practically the en-
tire teams joined in the discus
sion before an answer was sent.
OF the 68 Al admitted that
they had, in the past, played
baseball for money. In three let
tiers the writer plead guilty for
every man on his own team. In
one case IL players on one team
signed the letter written jointly.
The 6S practically were unani-
nous In favor of summer ball
and many OF them entered the
broad, general statement that
"all the students" looked upon IL
in that light.
In the face of such decIara-
tons, showing that the attitude
bof the student bodies almost
everywhere, is against a continue
ance of the present hypocritical
system, it seems absurd to con-
tinue any investigation. Tie
students understand the situa-
tion whether the faculties and
coaches do or not.

The United States has had a
revival of winter sports that
predicates the beginning of new
epoch.
We have prided ourselves for
generations upon being an ath-
letic nation, and then, as soon as
the ground froze and the snow
flew the majority of us have
backed up against the stove and
remained there until someone re-
ported that the lilacs were
blooming.
The truth is that winter sports
like cold baths, are a bit hard to
take, but once taken no one ever
abandons them and that is Just
what is happening. Americans
are commencing to learn that the
best of sport is winter sport and
that it means not only better
health but better athletics. We
are beginning to copy our Cana
dian cousins.
A few years ago | was in Mont
real in January and some friends
invited me to go to a hockey
game. 1t was ten below zero. The
rink was natural ice, the building
unheathed and 1000 people sat
around, most of them with their
feet on the ice itself to watch the
sport.
! was undecided whether to

One day in the last week in
January | picket up newspapers
from a dozen or more of our
cities to see what was going on In
sports. Here Is partial list:
Skiing. Cary, ILL.,. Mt. Horeb,
Wis, Minneapolis. Skating meets
almost everywhere, curling in
every city, and a bonspeil on at
st. Paul and another at Chicago,
tennis on ice at Chicago, New
York and Newport, ice racing at
Saranac, at Syracuse, Chicago.
Detroit. A great skating meet
at Cleveland.
1t struck me that Americans
were taking up winter sports, so
went through two or three
dozen papers carefully checking
off all kinds of outdoor sports
that were reported. The figures
grew formidable. Snow shoe
races, ski jumping, curling, skat-
ing, lacrosse, and soccer surviv-
ing at several places, ice boat
racing, at three points, with re-
ports from dozen of plans for
ice boat races.
One Minnesota town reported
a cake running contest between
boys who were to race across half
mile of floating ice cakes. Three
colleges were holding cross-coun-
try runs in spite of the zero tens
perature.

with. In this connection many i'm
portant researches and explorations
have been aided by special trusts pro-
vided by patrons of the institution.
Several bureaus or branches, de-
veloped through it's early activities,
are administered by the institution
/ with the aid of congressional appro-
priations amounting to about $500,
900 annually. These comprise the
United States National Museum, in
Guiding the National Gallery Of Art,
the international exchange service,
the bureau of American Ethnology,
the National Geological Park, the AS
trophysical Observatory and the
United States regional bureau of the
International Catalogue of Scientific
Literature.
While the Smithsonian is not an
educational institution in the nature
of a university with a corps of pro-
fessors and student body, it's edu-
cational functions are of the highest
rank, for it's scientific staff and it's
many collaborators are constantly
engaged in Investigations in which
students of all branches of science
participate, and the Museum collec-
tions, the animals in the Geological
Park, as we'll as the library and the
various publications are constant
of information to specialists and stu
dents.
For the increase of knowledge the
institution aids investigators by lin
tied grants for research and explora-
ton. It advises the government i'll
many matters of scientific import
ance, and cooperates with all the
governmental departments, and nu-
merous scientific and historical or
ganizations. Through assistance
rendered by special beQuests and
funds it has advanced science in con-
nection with atmospheric air and
aviation. In general, its activities
embrace all branches of natural sci
ence, fine arts and industrial arts,
it's scope being worldwide. Since
it's establishment it has participated
in astronomical, meteorological, geo.
graphical, anthropological, biological
and geological expeditions in nearly
every portion of the world, resulting
in vast increase in knowledge and in
the acquisition of great amount Of
valuable material for the National
Museum.
For the diffusion of knowledge
there are issued several series Of
publications constituting original
contributions to knowledge. accounts
of explorations and investigations,
and papers recording annual prog
ress in the field of science, all Of
which are distributed gratuitously to
important libraries.

he should leave behind him funds
for the purpose of carrying out his
ideals.
