Collegiate Officials Should
Use Logical Methods in
Deciding Status of Re-
turning Athletes
MEETING THIS MONTH
BY EDWIN ]. POLLOCK

THE suggestions recently made by
l. Gus,avus T. Kirby. chairman of the
advisory committee of the intercollegiate
A. A. A.. A., to cover the status OF the
returning soldier athletes are well taken
n It is very likely that they will be
approved by the executive committee
and adopted by the association.
One of Kirby's proposals would make
a student soldier returning from the
service eligible for the nnual outdoor
track and field championships, no mat
ter nat his academic standing may
be. provided he is a regular student of
the university or college which he will
represent on and after April /.
Freshmen Eligible
This means that a freshman at Penn,
for instance, would be eligible to COM
pete in the cinder-path championships
il he returned to The University not
later than April 1, provided he had
been u student at the Quaker institu-
ton before he left to enter the service.
Another one CT his suggestions would
make the member of the s. A. T. c. con-
sidered as having been in regular attend
ance at college during the time that he
spent in the training corps. This
theory already is being generally ac-
cepted.
No Indoor Games
Kirby also favors the elimination Of
the indoor championships this season.
There never has been any likelihood OF
an indoor set Of games in 1919 because
Of the financial condition of the asso-
citation and its members, but the associa-
ton must go through the Formally Of
waving the rule which calls for the
games.
These proposals will be brought up
for approval before the executive COM
mittee at its meeting in New York
January &c. The adoption of the sug-
gestions will be left over until the an
nual session March /.
At he time of the annual meeting the
outdoor championship games will be
awarded. The choice as usual lies be-
tween Soldiers Field, at Cambridge.
and Franklin Field. Penn was host
at the 1918 games and it is very prob
able that they again will go tG the
Quakers.

SCHOOL UINTETS
IN FREAK GAMES
Pierce Five Fails to Tally
Point Against Ridley
Park Five
LARGE SCORES A
By PAUL PREP

Yesterday surely was some day in
scholastic basketball circles. 1t seems
as though every coach instructed his
proteges to go out and play their heads
off or something like that, for unusual
plays cropped up in virtually every
game. It is unfortunate that scholastic
records aren't kept. for we believe sew
eral would have been added to the book.
For instance, the d In~terscholastic
League gam between Coach Gerney's
Northeast five and the Frankford High
quintet. The Archive guards. "Al" Par
ent and Hamilton. especially the former,
played a bang-up game to such IN ex-
tent that the Frankford team was pre-
vented from tallying a goal from the
field. 'Tis needless to say that North
east won, 31-12.
This Is Sad
Then there is the sac exhibition given
by the Pierce School team in it's contect
with the fast Ridley Park High School
five in the suburban gymnasium. While
the Ridley Park players were dropping
tne oval IN the net ffonl all sections
the Pierce team was unable to score a
single two-pointer during the entire
game. In addition the Pierce players
missed all of their twelve chances from
the foul line. Final score $50.
These two contests were only a few
of the many freak games played. Cath
Ollie High school went all the way to
Atlantic city to receive some pointers
and a '71-l6 defeat from the shore high
school team. Germantown Friends
School ran up a record score'of 10-1l in
their initial game with Friends Select
School, while over in New York the
Barnard School, scored a 71-O victory
over the Massee School
Some Good Games
So many games were staged yesterday
that it is a matter of course that a few
of them were of high order. Camden
High and Norrlstown High had quite n
time of it for forty minutes, the team
across the river finally gaining a 35-3i
victory. Crate and Stewart, the Camden
forwards, worked together in fine
fashion.
Trades School gave West Philadelphia
quite a scare in the second half of their
game. At half time the Speedboys were
leading 1913. At the restart the Trades
School five dropped in a few double
deckers and had West Philly on the run.
But the good work couldn't last and
West Philadelphia won, $500.

Many Benefits Derived
From Indoor Golf School
Francis Ouimet Says
Halt Should Be Called
on Making Long Holes

Thc golf wcrld il calling u halt on
long holes. Ever since the rubber ball
ousfed the gutta-percIln il has been
the tendency of the architects to keep
increasing the distance between holes.
Here's what Francis Ouimct. the ia
nous Boston golfer. has TO say on the
subject:
1T is an open question just how
far our longest drivers can hit n ball.
Personally. ! think there are about
three golfers in the world who can
drive. an carry. ESQ yards. Despite
the fact that balls are more resilient
and golfers driving further tina ever.
I cannot for the life of me understand
why the green committed are always
ciamoring for more distance. Better
by far to have u course measure 5000
yards, with plenty of variety and NJ
such construction that the player
must play every shot carefully than
one measuring $500 yards and calling
for distance on each shot"
