UNIVERSITY COMMITTED
TO CLEAN ATHLETICS

Educators have come to realize
that in a physical training program
there lies a prolific field for mental
training as well as the physical, and
consequently all our schools in every
grade are encouraging reasonable par
ticipation in athletics, while the pub
lie approves and makes the turnstiIe
click. Too often, however, there is no
keen appreciation of the line denmark
ing the amateur from the profess
sional," says DR.. C. C. Stroud. of the
Louisiana State University.
In many towns in Louisiana as
elsewhere, baseball teams are organ
lied and great interest is aroused in
inter-town games. The receipts frem
these games are often divided among
the players, or a cash sum given for
participation. Promising high school
athletes are occasionally so enrolled
and paid. This is flat violation OF
the amateur code, which states that
the receipt Of any money. beyond ex-
pcnses, for engaging in any form Of
athletics makes one a professional.
1T should be observed by every
high school teacher, and by all others
who are interested in wholesome sport

has professionalism himself before
entering college cannot participate q

PERFECT WIRELESS LULLABY.
Union College Students Apply Wireless
Services 10 Bnby Carriaees.

SCHENECTADY, \. Y. May IL
Student members of the Union College
Radio club here think they have found
a way to provide what might be called a
universal lullaby for American babies.
With couple of light poles and a few
wires the students recently rugged up a
wireless receiving station on an ordinary
baby carriage. with small megaphone
attached to throw sounds under the
carriage hood. With a baby loaned for
the occasion by a sympathetic mother. a
student trundled the carriage through
the old Blue Gate" down Union street
and into the business section of the city.
As the carriage started a young wom-
an at the Radio clubs sending station
i'm the college grounds began singing a
lullaby. Her song was caught and dis
tinCtly reproduced by the receiver on
the baby carriage all through the bust
ness district. more than n mile distant.
and the reports Of the experiment say
that the baby was 'as good as could be. -
soothed by the lullaby from start to fin
ish of the novel wireless experiment.
