DR.. Hunters Plans

A big event in the college chron-
icles is recorded as late as 1908, and
is marked by copy of the program
followed on the occasion of the in
stallation of q new president for the
Normal College. DR.. Hunter had re-
signed the preceding year, after
thirtyseven years Of service. In the
spring of 1908 was chosen the new
permanent head, George S. Davis,
who had gained recognition in an

Thousands Denoted

Nearly one year ago the War
Department began to denote regular
army officers from their temporary
rank and thus return them to their
proper grades in the regular army.
They began with major generals and
orlgadier generals, so that soon a
number Of regular officers who had
won distinction in France found
themselves majors, and lieutenant
colonies, and even captains, in few
instances, while hundreds-yes, lit
orally thousands-of their juniors
continued in the grades of lieutenant
colonel and colonel. Complaint elicit

tees must inevitably result during
the rehabilitation Of 100000 men.

AS to Quitting To-day


CINCINNATI, Jan. 7.-August Herr
mann, chairman of the National Base
ball Commission, would not say tonight
whether he would resign from that po-
the commission. When asked if he
contemplated resigning he said: "All
l can say is, you be at the meeting"
Hermann has repeatedly announced
that he was willing to vacate the chair
manship in view Of the opposition in
the National League of having a man
interested in one of the clubs in the
circuit further serve in the capacity of
chairman. He maintained, however.
that he could not quit until suitable
successor had been appointed.
Unless Herman does voluntarily re-
sign it is believed that a deadlock will
ensue at to-morrow's session.

Value of 1922 Futurity
Will Exceed $73, 900

The phenomenal entry which has
been received for the Futurity Of 1922
shows plainly that the prosperity of
the turf is such tina. The Westcheste.
Racing Association would be justified
in going back to the original conditions
of the race. which called for $4,000
added money and higher subscription.
The present intention, therefore, Of
on the old lines, namely, $4,000 added
money and $25 for the first subscrip-
ton. Considering the number of nom-
nations received this year, the value
of the stake for 1923, based on the old
terms, would exceed that of the year
1890, when the gross va1u4 of the stake
was $73, 3,676-Potomac's year.

Majority of Racket Weld

tons of the Net Game
By Fred Hawthorne

Little journeys along the highways
and byways in the world Of lawn ten
mis- lead me to believe that consider
able opposition is liable to develop
throughout the country during the COM
posed change in the present system OF
scoring.
We have grown 80 accustomed te
calling the score At "16-love," "deuce,"
Ssdvantxre In" and the other time
honored variations that q change to
the mathematical do" "2--1," etc.,
dces not seem Just the thing. Lawn
tennis players have certain traditions
about the great old game that they do
not relish seeing shattered unless there
be due cause, and the general. belief
By the committee that advocates the new
scoring system are outweighed by the
considerations that urge the retention
Of the present system.
One serious defect that has been
pointed out in the proposed scoring ar
ranxement b. adherentS OF the exist
ing, order Of things il the likelihood OF

Tennis Players Oppose Proposed
Changes in System of Scoring

Belgium, Canada and South Africa are
certainly not going to adopt this new
scoring system, and that can only mean
one thing, when our players are COM
peting against men from those coun-
tries. There is bound to be confusion,
and which side is going to recede from
Its position?
of lawn tennis ever since the game was
the Colonies have been brought up in
the same beliefs, the same traditions
SO have France and Belgium. They
have given no Indications that they ap-
prove Of the proposed action by the
u. s. N. L. T. A., nor are they likely to.
: One of the most serious objections
that / see ip the new system is the
plan to decide the winner on the total
number Of games won, instead Of by
sets, as at present. There is certain
to be widespread dissatis action at
that has prevailed for all these years.
Suggests to Try-Out
ITO my way Of thinking, it would
be the part Of wisdom to try the new
scoring system out this season and
give it fair test all over the coun-
try, and then Mt the meeting Of the
national association next year submit
the proposition to referendum vote
among the players Of every club il
the United States. Only in that manner
could true decision be arrived at.
and I believe the sentiment against the
proposed change would be overwhelm-
"If the matter is placed in the hands
Of the delegates at the meeting this
month, as Is planned, they arc liable
to vote for the new system simply be-
cause they have been told that the ex-
ecutive committee is in favor of it,"
McNeal's suggestion is a good one
and l also believe that the U. S. N. l..
T. A. should go slowly in undoing the
work Of the past.
Action still dragged yesterday in

By Stevens Tech

Stevens Tech easily defeated Colum-

formers court last night by score
of AZ to 80. Better teamwork and
more accurate shooting featured the
play of the Engineers. Carlson and
Kurtz, the star Stevens players, scored
enough points between them to down
the Blue and White by three points.
The Hoboken five repeatedly worked
the ball toward the Columbia basket by
clever passing, while the New York
players took long chances. Farrell and

from the game for committing four
