As a matter of fact, the whole
Jones-Curley regime has been
odious to the champion. He has
stood for 1t as long as he has for
two reasons: first, because he APP
preciates the fact that without
their assistance he never would
have gotten Jack Johnson in the
ring with him, and he has felt in
duty bound to give them a chance
to reap the benefits of their SOW
ing; second. because he has con-
sidered the field of challengers
to be of such inferior material
that he did not believe there
really was an urgent demand for
him to stay in the ring as con-
sistently as champions have been
used to.

WELLYS 2 CORNER

Indications are that the college
football managers will have to get
together on a schedule for the fall
games. War conditions have put for
mer plans heller skelter and many
of the elevens have not been able to
get together on dates. 1t is probable
there will be conference within a
few weeks.
Baseball fans throughout the Unit
ed States agree with President Wood
row Wilson that a worlds series
should be played. From the start the
general belief was that the effort to
have the big games called off was
due to a case of sour grapes" with
some managers. Teams up in the
race are lighting for something's
chance to get at the big cash prizes
that come with a worlds series.

that was not considered advisable.
The freshmen will have their own
sports and it was intimated that
Princeton and Harvard will enter
the freshmen field.
Lack Material
The abandonment of Varsity sports
by Yale, Harvard and Princeton was
ascribed to lack of material, most
members of last years squads now
being in some branch of the military
service. The ranks of other colleges
nave also been decimated, and the
most promising athletic material has
marched off to war, but the colleges
have decided to place teams on the
gridiron this fall as usual.
The plea for the resumption of
college sports is made on the ground
that athletics are great aid in the
equipment of young men for the re-
ception of military training.
In his address Secretary Baker
said: There is one great criticism
of college athletics. The big, strong,
husky men are made specialized
athletes, while the anaemic and
studious and unathletically inclined
are left to fill the bleachers. Star
teams and specialized athletes, while
good and valuable in their way are
not numerous enough to make arm
les. The gospel of college athletics
should be athletics for ALL"
Resolutions for the continuance
of athletics were adopted as follows:
The Resolutions
Whereas, College athletics, as
stated by Secretary Baker in his ad-
dress to the conference, are of great
use in developing the qualities of a
good soldier:
Resolved, That we recommend to
the colleges that the program of ath-
| letic sports for the coming year be
continued, with increased efforts to
develop athletics for all students
| rather than for a chosen few, and
that the schedule as far as local con-
ditiops allow, care being taken not
| to interfere with the military train
! ing of the students or to conflict with
the military interests of the Nation:
That we recommend that there
/ be no preseason coaching during
/ the coming academic year:
That training table be given up I;
/ That professional coaching and
other expenses incidental thereto be
reduced to minimum; that the
number of officials at intercollegiate
games and their fees be kept as low
as possible;
| THAT the association reiterates its
belief in the eligibility rules, which
I 1t has already indorsed, including
the freshmen rule, and recommends
that there be no lowering of eligibil-
ity standards because of existing
conditions"

NO NECESSITY
TO CALL OFF
WORLDS GAME,

Chicago. ILL.,. Aug. 3.-President
wilson has come to bat in a pinch
and saved professional baseball.
Gloomy interviews given out recently
by President Ban Johnson. of the
American League. with a somber fol-
low-up by President Tener, of the
National League. indicated that there
would be no worlds series this fall
for the reason that President Wilson
might consider the Derby of profess
sional baseball unpatriotic in view of
impending events in France.
Mr.. Johnson. especially, was beset
by forebodings and said that his
league was ready to shut it's gates
Immediately, If. in the opinion of
President Wilson. such a procedure
would be the patriotic thing to do.
These utterances gave baseball fans
all over the country the impression
that the sport was tottering and that
il was only a question of time until
President Wilson would explode both
big leagues with a word. Johnson's
interview followed a visit to Wash
ington and it naturally was presumed
that he had had some sort of hint
from the White House.
Attendance Is Good
In order to find out just what the
situation was, w. S. Forman, sporting
editor of the Chicago Herald, wrote
to President Wilson on July %, call
ing the Presidents attention to the
statements made by Johnson and
Tener. 1t was pointed out that the
attendance figures this year have
shown that the public is tremendously
interested in major league baseball;
that here in Chicago one club owner,

PROVIDE SEATS
FOR GUN BUGS
Make All Shooting Events
Enjoyable to Fair; Crowds
Are Profitable
BY PETER P. CARNEY.

editor Natioal Sports Syndicate)
The immense crowds that have at
tended the state. sectional and other
important trapshooting tournaments
Of the past three years show the
growth of interest in the trapgun
game from the spectators standpoint.
Observers have noted. however,
that this attendance is "hoating"-
the crowd changing every hour or so.
This is due, in a great measure, to
the fact that no adequate arrange
ments are made to seat the gun
bugs"
1t is true that at some of the
leading tournaments that circus seats
have been set up and the st. Louis
(Mo) Trapshooters Association last
August erected grandstand seating
several hundred persons. This stand
was built for the Grand American
and was behind the traps used by the
professionals and women.
AS a rule the seats are located well
in the rear of the firing line and a
clear view of the shooters is to be
had only from the rows nearest the
top.
Trapshooting and golf are the only
sports which the spectators cannot
witness with the comfort they can
other sports. yet these two sports
have overwhelmed all others in new
devotees in the past five years.
One reason no provision is made for
the adequate seating of spectators at
trapshooting tournaments is that no
admission is charged. and the clubs
promote the events because of their
interest in the sport and without
thought OF profit. The building of
seats would cause a deficit that could
only be met by charging for the seats
provided.
There is no better way to create a
desire to shoot on the part of nom
shooters than to provide them with
seats and let them watch the partici-
pants-the trap men and trap women
enjoy the sport alluring."
This is something the Interstate
Association for the Encouragement of
Trapshooting might give a little time
to and thought. for 1t is a problem
that the Interstate Association will
eventually have to solve.
