ADVISERS AWARD
GAME TO WESTERN

The high school baseball game OF
April 20, between Central and West
ern, which ended in a seven inning
1 to 1 tie, has been awarded to West
ern by the board of high school fac
ulty athletic advisers.
Central started and played Cum
mings, an ineligible player, for half
an inning. Cummings was removed
from the game without announce
ment by the umpire, and Dunlop sub
stituted. r. A Maursr, acting prin-
cipaI of Central, took Cummings from
the contest when he arrived at the
baseball park.
AS Central had given out DO line
up or eligibility list before the game
started, and as Acting Principal
Maurer admitted that Cummings had
played a half inning before being
taken out, the game was declared for
feited to Western.
Neither Umpire Belts or the West
ern scorer were notified OF the change
in the Central lineup during the
game, nor was any admission made
OF the change In the lineup until
the day after the game. The faculty
athletic advisers took action yester-
day afternoon, CentraPs representa-
tive being absent and Western dis
senting.
Acting Principal r. A. Maurer to-
day explained the incident as follows:
Through an error in checking the
records to make up the original
eligibility list for the Central-We5t-
ern game OF Tuesday, April 20, a
name was added which did not be-
long there. BY a rechecking of the
record before the game for the very
purpose OF insuring the eligibility II
the team the error was discovered
and a corrected list was sent to the
faculty adviser at the field.
The game had begun and the in
eligible player was Immediately with
drawn at the end OF the first half
inning before he had gone to the bat
This action was taken entirely on
Centrars own motion and even when
the status OF the player was unknown
to the other school These facts evil
dence the schools absolute good faith
in the eligibility code.
There is no rule or precedent in
the history of our high school ath-
Ietics known to Central to support the
action OF the faculty athletic advisers
in declaring the game forfeited to
Western under such circumstances

What's the Use? Caddy
Always Gets the Money
Golfers Can Get Anyway

Business is the ruin OF the
golfng man." said Charles F.
Thompson, president OF the West
srn Golf Association, recently.
He and John D. Cady, former chief
executive Of the Western body,
have been wintering in California,
and have taken part in many
matches together at Midwiek and
Los Angeles. Thompson summed
Il up in the following pertinent
question:
What's the use OF making
money! The caddies get 1t all
eventually"
