SUMMER BASEBALL IS
OPPOSED BY ST. JOHN
Buckeye Coach Is Not in Favor
of Proposal.
Asserts There Is Ample Time for Coll
lege Player to Take Up Profes-
sional Game After He Has
Left His University.

Commenting upon the suggestion ad-
vanced by George Huff, athletic direc-
tor of the University of Illinois, that
the western conference colleges per-
nit their athletes TO play summer base
ball for two or three years as an ex-
pertinent, L. w. st. John, athletic di-
rector at Ohio State, said: There Is
ample time for the college player to
take up the professional game after
he leaves his university. He should
not be permitted to play in the sum-
mer for money and still maintain his
amateur status.
"While it Is true that our SWIM
mers, musicians, orators and others
earn money during the off season by
imparting knowledge learnedUln col
lege to others, 1 am not In favor OF
allowing our baseball men to play for
money. There is ample time and
plenty of opportunity for the good
players to join professional teams
after they have played their allotted
time on college mines. College base
ball Is for the mass Of students rath-
er than the few who are exceptionally
proficient, and I think it would be
unfair to the majority to permit
few to earn money during the summer
because of their diamond skill.
81 realize there is plenty Of room
for argument on both sides. Ii the
majority of our directors want sum-
mer baseball, then l will climb aboard
the band wagon and give it trial.
At present, however, I am opposed to
1t and will not permit any Of Ohio
States players to engage in profess
sional games unless such rule IS
passed by the conference. When our
players join our teams they do SO
with the understanding that they
never have played baseball for money.
At the same time they are told our
faculty board Of control reserves the
right to recommend suspension from
college If they have told an untruth.
7 believe that it Is up to the man 10
determine which game he wants to
play. If he wants to play profession
ally then I believe he should be barred
from playing on our university teams.
Director st. John is a stickler FOR
amateurism. It was largely through
his efforts that Chick Harley, Ohio's
great halfback, did not play profes-
sional football while he was in col
lege. Harley was offered large sums
of money to play with pro teams IN
the Buckeye state.

he had washed from some stream In
a similar direction to that from which
the Indian hailed.
He never visited his trap lines after

NeedlewOrk to Do.

The day when every woman who
liked to do needlework had a sheaf OF
colored silks in her work stand is
gone. Colored embroidery of some
sorts is. of course. still done. How
ever. there are other kinds of needle
work that are more in vogue.
One is filet lace. 1t is interesting to
contemplate the length of time that
filet lace has been in high fashion,
both for the adornment of woman and
the adornment OF her home. The
fashion does not dwindle. rather in
creases.
for the heavy Italian filet lace. This
may very easily be initiated, simply
by using very heavy thread. This
lace forms scarfs for the table. Done
in deep cream thread, with a long
knotted fringe at the ends. scarf of
this lace is effective on the living
room table. Done in white thread
covering for the luncheon table. Re-
member, though. to have the thread
of very heavy quality. for therein
lies the distinction of this particular
sort of lace.
Old English eyelet work is also in
vogue. The kind that one does with a
stilleto. 1t should be done on very
fine linen, sheer and soft. This is
used for neckwear especially.
Then there are the various fine cro-
cheted edges that are used on so many
of the luncheon and tea napkins. Not
a scallop or a lace, but a little picot
edge, worked on fine. strong linen.
Embroidered bath towels, with big
initials worked in a diamond shaped
frame. are still considered quite smart
and their working is a pleasure be-
cause of their softness
