To Improve the v. s. A.

The Senate has added to the
bonus bill an appropriation of
$350,0O0,000 to reclaim swamp
and arid lands, the lands to be
distributed among ex-service
men. Senators opposing the
bonus voted for this amend
ment. They did it, they
frankly admit, to make quite
certain that the President
would veto the bill, and Con-
gress sustain his veto.
To assume that the Presi-
dent would veto a measure to
reclaim swamps and deserts
and give the land to soldiers
does not speak highly for the
Senate's opinion of the Presi-
dents intelligence or patriot
ism.

Where fashion is concerned,
60 say that woman is as cnange-
able as a feather in the wind is
putting it mildly. You know
how white American women sit
for hours, uncomfortable, look
ing like "fretful porcupines,"
while a hairdresser fastens a
permanent wave" to their
straight hair. They pay $40
and waste hours to get that
Lkink well established.
From South Africa to the
United States Commerce De-
partment comes Q demand via
the American trade commission
at johannesburg for something
that win straighten out the
kinky, permanently waved hair
of Zulu, Kaffir and otner South
African ladies. "

Here's some comfort for en-
ployers of strikers. Whatever
happens usually helps hem.
Henry Ford will close his fac
tory and discharge 10000 men.
p What will those men do? Help
the men on strike? Not ex-
actly. ManyNof them will apply
to the railroads for jobs to
help break the strike.
Thus. intelligence at the top
Is able to manipulate the lack
of it at the bottom.
Recently Samuel Gompers
predicted that four million
union men and fourteen million
farmers would unite to help
each other.
At present, for lack of coal
and transportation caused by
the strike, canneries, cheese
factories and creamelies are
closed down. Fruit and vege-
tables are rotting on the ground
and transportation for grain
threatens to be inadequate.
How many of ghe fourteen
million farmers will sympathize
with coal miners and railroad
workers on strike? How many
will do exactly the other thing?
If Mr.. Gompers thinks a ma
iority of the $4,000. 900 farmers
will sympathize with union la
Dor, he doesn't know the H..
100000 farmers. Farmers are

Later we shall ignore the
tides, using direct the suns

we live is a gigantic driving
wheel and dynamo. The sun
Is an engine with endless bill

We shall not always be burn

Spring Grid Work
Commences Today
in Scarlet Camp
Baseball Squad to Play Pre-
Season Games With Semi
Pro Teams.

CHARLOTTESVILLE, Ind, April s.
Spring football, something new in the
way Of sports here, was scheduled to
start at Wabash this afternoon. Coach
Vaughan made a call for all candidates
to the 1922 grid squd and more than
fifty were expected to answer the initial
summons. Football men, now members
of the baseball squad, are exempt. This
includes Captain Kessler, Goldsberry and
Thorn, all regulars.
The Little Giant ball tossers probably
will add another contest to their sched-
ule, it was learned here yesterday. The
factc that Minnesota will take over In
diana's schedule means that the Big
Ten club Will fill the tentative dates
Wabash had with l. U. Bill Spaulding,
former Wabash star athlete, is coach
at Minnesota.
New Ross Independent ball club
probably will meet the Scarlet in
Practice game here the last of next
week. The Cooler All-Stars from In
dianapolis will be seen in actiocn here
April 10, II and II. Inclement weather
has slowed things up in baseball, but
Coach Scholler is counting on getting
in some good practice this week.

BY YEDDER GARD.

At a recent meeting Of the Indiana
Basket ball Officials Association a plan
was brought up and discussed that may
mean much toward a better understand
Ing between the men who officiate IN
the-variOus high school net contests ana
the coaches and athletic directors who en-
gage the officials. There are always nu-
merous suggestions being onere1 as 10
the betterment Of the popular Indiana
game. not that the bardcourt competition
especially needs any drastic changes, nut
lecause there Is always room Tor I'M
provement. no matter how well any sport
is conducted.
The suggestion OF the Indiana officials
is for a meeting OF their organization
with the board OF the I. H S. A. A. Just
before the basketball season starts
preferably in October at the general meet
ing OF the high school association. There
is nothing that clears up any situation
as much as an open discussion of the va
rious problems that come up. 1t Is
thought that a meeting between referees
and officials of the State association
would do much to encourage a mutual
understanding. The basket ball OFFICIALS
could thus obtain the opinions OF the
high school authorities on the odiciat-
ing end of the game, and vice versa, the
men who work the games could state
be arranged at this time.
1t is admitted by all that good, con
scientious, intelligent work by the men
with the whistles is absolutely essential
for the welfare of the popular sport. The
referee with clear judgment is needed
to steer a contest through the forty min
utes Of fierce combat. In some cases
poor officiating spoils a good contest.
But, on the other hand, If everything does
not go just right, the unthinkihg fans
usually blame the goat whose other
name is "the bum out there Oh the floor
that don't know nothin'
But there is another side to the ques-
ton. II is not strange that the referee
stranger still, in some cases, he may not
beA There Is a vast difference in the at
titude Of teams. coaches and fans.

STATE SCHOOLS
HIT BY RULING
Big Ten Prohibits Members
From Meeting Teams Play
ing Freshmen.


One OF the rulings made at the meeting
OF the Western Conference. athletic au-
thoritie5 IN Chicago Saturday may change
the aspect OF several football schedules In
this State HeXt fall. Beginning on Sept
l. the conference decided that no contests
were to be permitted with institutions
not enforcing the freshmen rule. This
would prohibit Indiana aud Purdue play
ing the other schools OF the State ex
cept Nofre Dame as the two Big Ten col
leges and the South Bend school are the
only ones that do not allow freshmen
to compete In athletics.
Some years ago the rule was side
stepped by scheduling contests with the
understanding that no first year men were
to play This situation may prevail
again.
A general Tightening OF the rules was
the result Of the Big Ten meeting. In
tersectional contests were disapproved,
but Will not influence the grid games
scheduled for this year.
When an athlete migrates from one Big
Ten institution to another, hereafter, he
must attend the new institution for two
years before being eligible for intercOl-
leRiate competition.
The amateur rule governing baseball
was made more drastic by forbddng
college players TO be members Of teams
where admission is charged.
After this year athletes Will be per
mitted 10 participate in only two sports,
If favorable action IS taken at the Con
ference meeting in June on resolution
presented TO the faculty meeting Satur-
day. According to the proposed rule an
athlete would not be allowed to play
both football and baseball. Cross
country running and track work were
considered one sport.
The COMMITTEES also voted TO normal
ize and enlarge the list Of eligible Con
ference colleges and passed the recon-
mendation of athlet.c directors that Big
Ten basket ball officials who work in

Hopes Manager Talks

ST. LOUIS. April Accommodating on
the announcement Saturday night Of the
retirement Of Willie Hoppe from the
billiard game, Manager Benjamin last
night charged that "commercialsm in
the billiard game made 1t impossible
for the eN-champion to compete for his
lost title within eighteen months or
two yBrs.
Primarily, Willie feels that he has
reached the age where his first duty is
TO his family" Benjamin's statement
said. FOR nearly ten years he has been
touring the world giving exhibitions
Furthermore, he has been very dis
satisfied with the manner in which the
championship contests hPve been con-
Quoted during recent years"
Benjamin declared that a billiard
firm had "commercialized the game"
adding that the x-champion's recent
defeat by Schaefer had not stimulated
his decision to retire. Hoppe and Ben
jamin were to depart for New York to-
day, where they expect to make arrange
ments for the future.

NET OFFICIALS SUGGEST OPEN
MEETING WITH II. S. AUTHORITIES

The man out there on the floor can sense
Ii In the atmosphere when the audience
of fans can see only two teams battling
for game. There are teams that are
''mean"-which take every decision with
i'll grace. The referee is their natural
enemy. There are ather fives that &C
cept ms final the judgment Of the man
running the contest
There are rooters whose chief delight
is to pan" the official and whose loud
ness of mouth is only exceeded by their
ignorance. There are other roOters who
are real sportsmen and take the adverse
decisions along with the favorable ones
with the same grin. Its all in the
game"
There are coaches who wrangle and
haggle over the smallest details and en-
deavOr to browbeat officials. There are
others who fight just as hard for the
game from the bench, but do it In the
fashion Of gentlemen.
Just who is responsible for the differ
ent attitudes? 1t is largely up to the
coaches; and after the coaches. the pTIn-
cipals Of the schools. There were in
efficient officials in some contests and in
past season. On the other hand, there
were unsportsmanlike players and
crowds. All Of this can be corrected.
The plan of the Indiana Association az
Basket ball Officials for a meeting, 4
adopted, will go a long way IN bring
ing about clear understanding of both
sides Of the matter. The board Of con-
troll of the I. II. S. A. A has in the past
left the question of officials too largely to
run along in hit CT miss fashion.
A communication has been sent to the
board of control hv the officers of the
Officials Association suggesting a meet
ing Of referees ard high school author
tiles. general circular has been sent
out by Secretary Trester to all members
Of the 1. II, s. A A in regard to the
question Of officiating. The matter will
be brought up at the next board meeting.
There is nothing that will clear up the
situation to such an extent as a grand
get-together meeting in which the whole
thing can be "rhrashed out" from every
angle with high school authorities and
referees both present to bring forth their
respective views

BY HENRY FARRELL

NEW YORK, April 3.-Yale, Harvard
and Princeton-the well-known big
three" still figure that intercollegiate
sport has to be saved. They differ on
methods, but they agree that 1t must be
done.
Harvard breaks forth with the bril-
liant idea that the problem could be solved
II the plebeian newspaper men could
be barred from the stadiums ut the big
games However, this was passed up when
some bright light made it known that
several years ago Harvard had offered
newspaper men 500 IL they wouldn't
write anything about the Tale-Iarvaro
game. They couldn't understand why
any wspaperman could turn down 500
cash. - Ii also was pointed out that
troops might be needed at the gates to
keep out the scribes.
Yale hasn't had much TO say since the
head coach came cut and said that com
mon sense instead Of high-brow talk
would cure any evils II they ala exist.
Tad Jones stands high at Yale and the
bright minds OF the campus could hardly
engage In a debate with him.
Bill Roper also pounced with both
feet on some Of the big notions the
Princeton boys got about cleaning up
