Spectacular and CONNER
cialized Activities Inten-
sify Official Antagonism

The twenty-hfth annual meeting Of
the Society of Directors Of Physical
Education in Colleges was held yester-
day at the Hotel Astor. One Of the
principal subjecta discussed by the
body was that of the steadily increas-
ing demand upon the time and energy
of students that is made by the modern
athletic system. DR.. George l.. Mey-
Ian, of Columbia, expressed the fear
that complete prohibition of collegiate
sports might come to pass unles some
rational policy is adopted.
''The tremendous increase in public
interest and attendance at athletic con-
tests during the last two years has
served to accentuata the difficulties
arising out of spectacular and COM
mercislized intercollegiate activities" !"
said DR.. Meylan. Steadily increasing
demands upon the time and energy of
students for training and trips and
greatly increased distraction Of the
whole student body from academic du-
ties, only serve to intensity the antag-
onism of college officials. A most Sc
rious matter is that many Of those in
charge of athletics es coaches, train
ers and advisers, fail to recognize the
di~e~~ree between amateur. recrea-

Bezdek, who came East to attend
Tuesday nights meeting of the foot
ball coaches and to represent Penn
State at the annual meeting of the
National Collegiate Athletic Associa-
tion at the Hotel Astor tonight, is
particularly impressed with the pos
slbillties of Killinger. His opinion is
worthy of consideration. Bezdek
proved fine success as manager of
the pirates and laid the ground work
for the fine team that repre- sented the
Smoky City last season. He volun-
tarily retired as manager when the
alternative was presented of his sever
ing his football connections with Penn
State, one of the very greatest grid
iron elevens in the country.

bezdek during visit to Yankee head
quarters yesterday afternoon, "if Kill

The boys championship singles ad-
vanced to the semi-fnal round, with
Horace Orser, Palmer Sealy, K. Appel
and Grevil Acker occupying the brack-
cts, and three matches were played in
the junior doubles. All the final
matches will be played on Saturday,
and the junior singles matches will be
played this morning, beginning at 10
o'clock
The outstanding performance yester~
day was shown by young Dawson, the
Fordham schooiboy. who moved down
two of the strongest eontenders in the
field during the day. In his sirst mstch
Franklin 7. osgood. of Dartmouth Col
lege, by 8 score of SIS, 6-2, rs,
Dawson then took on John F. Whit
beck, OF Loomis Institute, Windsor,
Conn, and triumphed again, this time
by the score of 1-6, Sc. Is, al
though the Connecticut schoolboy star
pressed him hard every minute of the
his opponent.
Dawson Has edge"
Dawson, q stalwart young athlete,
drives, and following in behind his
forcing shots for fine kills" at the
net. Both Osgood and Whitbeck held
him almost even in many flashing ral-
lies. but Dawson had sufficient ledge"
to come through with the winning
points when they were most needed.
Aydelotte, who halls from California,
was another double winner yesterday.
In the second round he eliminated Carl
E. Scnuster by score of 60, 6--2,
and then rushed through his match
with John Van Ryn at Go, 6--0
Aydelotte brings something Of the typ
ieal California brand of tennis and
speed to his game, and it was It's that
rendered opposition against him yes
terday hopeless. Aydelotte and Lang
meet this morning. and one of the most
stirring contests Of the week should
result.
Easy Bracket for Lang
Lang did not have much difficulty in
gaining his bracket, defeating Eugene
Stein, of Stuyvesant, by a score of
6-3, CO, and always holding himself
we'll in reserve. Aydelotte should force
him to the limit this morning, and
the winner of this match should force
his way into the final bracket in the
lower half.
Dawson, who is in the upper half,
will face Valentine Gress to-day, and
judged by his performances, to date he
ought to win. Young Miles, who is
small but wiry, defeated F. A. Walsh,
Of Fordham College. by . score of 7--5,
Cd, and this morning will take on
Rouillion. the Harvard representative.
In the bottom brackets the contendeTs
will be Morton Bernstein and Harry
Baker, and it looks as though Bern
stein would come through here, owing
80 his greater tournament experience.

Hippo Vaughn, of Cubs,
Sticks Will, Sen1i-Pros

CHICAGO, Dec. 2S.-Jim Vaughn,
former star southpaw of the Chicago
National League team, will again be a
member Of the Beloit, Wis, Fairies, q
semi-professional club next season of
the Mid West League, according to
prominent baseball men.
Vaughn was suspended last summer
by Johnny Evers, then manager OF the
Cubs, and during his suspension he
pitched game under an assumed name
at Kenosha, Wis. When he reported
back to Evers he was referred to Com
missioner lands and was put on the
Ineligible list as q contract jumper.
Officials of the Cubs declare they
have had no dealings with Vaughn
since that time, and few days ago
Commissioner Lands said he did not
recall an application for reinstatement
from the pitcher.
Eemi-pro men, however, claim
vaughn's case was taken before Landis
and was turned down. Hippo" then
went back to Belcit and signed con-
tract for 1922

Schedules Seeking
Winter Spotlight
Texas Mississippi Circuit
Would Place Courses
Among Leading Havens

CHICAGO, Dec. 2s.-Golf schedules of
the Texas Mississippi circuit and the
Atlantic Coast resorts are to be rear
ranged, according to word received here,
so that other Southern states in addi-
ton to those on the east coast will
have share of the golf spotlight dur
ing the winter months.
Golf enthusiasts of Mississippi and
Texas are making every effort to place
their courses among the leading havens
for the professional golfers, and the
Gulf state, civic and commercial organ
izaticns are behind the movement.
Present plans provide for two COM
plete circuits over which the golf pros
will travel. The tournament play in the
Texas-Mississippi circuit will start on
January Is and end February 10, with
San Antonio, Dallas, Houston, Fort
Worth and New Orleans being the CEN
Cers OF activities.
The golfers will then have sufficient
time to reach Florida for the tourna-
ments, which start at Jacksonville.
Miami, Palm Beach, Belaire, Asheville,
N. c., and Pinehurst follow, where the
season reaches an end with the holding
of the North and South open.

Professional Football

Bezdek is not particularly hostile to
professional football though like most
Of the other college coaches he would
discourage it's practice by graduates IS
Tor the simple reason it holds no fu-
ture.
with few exceptions, such as Jim
Thorpe, the average graduate can
stand the wear and tear of the game
no more than two or three seasons
Professional baseball is an altogether
different proposition. 1t does hold a
sense of the word,n
The National Collegiate Athletic
Association, which meets here tonight,
is the governing body of all college
athletics in the broadest sense of the
word, but has no power to alter rules.
Suggestions and plans for the govern
ing of college activities are talked
over and recommendation made. AS
to football, the intercollegiate rules
committee has the final say.
Bezdek is likely to suggest several
radical rules changes for football. He
believes the final whistle should not
cheat team of triumphant march
down the field; that even after the
call of time the attacking force should
sary distance if touchdown lay at the
other end of tbs trail. Also he believes
certain scoring changes should be made
to better distinguish between real foot
ball skill and "fool luck" Or "breaks'
of the game.
Yankee Training Plans
While plans in final detail for The
spring training Of the Yankees have
not been announced by Manager EC
Barrow, it is generally understood thai
the American League champions viii
spend four weeks at New Orleans, be-
ginning on or around March l. Some
of the veteran pitchers and catchers
are likely to go to Hot springs, Ark.

Before the team leaves for training
