THINKS WOMEN SHOULD
 OUT POLITICS

LONDON, Dec. 19.-"I really don't think that women should be in par lament at all," said the Marchion- ess of Townshend in an interview.
 'eThis is not, of course, because I think that a woman, by doing so, neglects her home and her chiL- dren, but because I feel that women in Parliament would be far too apt to concentrate on home affairs and the concerns of women and children ito take to the parochial instead of a national attitude.
 "That is why I shall not attempt election to Parliament, but will con fine my political activities to the social side, although I shall do some public speaking.
 One of women's greatest political faults in the past has been that they have continually spoken as though men, with wives and children of their own-to say nothing Of moth 
 CTS and sisters--were active enemies of our sex. That is one of the great est mistakes ever made.
 Right Type Problem
 And another difficulty about wom- en in Parliament is the trouble in getting the right type of woman to stand for election. We don't want to have nothing but spinsters, who. however clever, haven't the broad sympathies and understanding of the best type of married wom- en. Neither do wes want the emolt' tered woman, who turns from dlsap- nointment in her married life to find solace in public service.
 "But so far as I understand the women in England outside the bis cities, seem to take no interest ln politics at all. That is pity, ana think women enthusiasts should agitate with all their might to make women as keen on political affairs as men.
 No Political Plan
 "That is why I am about to De- gin a new type of political enter taining. I want to get together all sorts of people-actors and actresses as well as average men and women and the few people who are actively interested in politics, and then set them all talking, There will be no nlatitudes or long-winded speeches, hut just a few facts set out clearly for discussion.
 q may be accused of trying to re- yive backstairs influence and pettl- coat government, but that doesn't matter So long as I can arouse political and municipal conscience in women I shall be satisfied.
 "Once we can get women inter- ested in public service and convince them that this is the duty of every citizen then we will quickly educate my sex to a sane and lively inter est in the great subjects of national and world politics"
 The Marchioness of Townshend' apart from being one of the most beautiful women in England, is distinguished playwright and author,

Summer Baseball for
Money Disapproved
by Dartmouth Prof.

New York, Feb. 21-Removal of the
restrictions governing vacation peri
DDS So as to permit college Under
graduates 20 play summer baseball
for money lis highly inadvjsable" DR..
Ernest NJ. Hopkins of Dartmouth
said today in response to Il question:
nairn sent him by the New York
World.
DR.. Hopkins said he did not believe
more drastic rules We're needed to
control college athletic evils. such as
recruiting. PROSECUTING and scmi-pro-
fcssionaliSm, but that he did believe
the existing rules Eeeded clarified ton
to a degree that would manifest their
propricty and desirability for the
good of sport.
He added that he always had con-
tended that there was no use of cs-
tablishirg honor systems unless one
could possess himself Of en- honor
code and that the need now was more
distinctly for code in athletics than
for more regulations.
breaches of the code of amateur
ism in college sports" he said, ARE
more likely to so back to careless in
dividuals among the alumni odies
than among the undergraduates.
Il have great admiration for the
professional athlete who desires a
college education and professional
athletes should not be denied the
chance to obtain educations or even
Of earning them by their athletic alb
ility, but they should not be permit
ted to pose as amateurs or play on
amateur teams. On the other hand !
see no reason why undergraduates
who win college prestige in athletics,
then conmercialize such recognition,
should be hOnored on the basis of be-
ing amateurs and be paid as though
they were professionals The glory
of college 'athletics-and their only
glory is their amateurism."
DR.. II. A. Garfield, president of
Williams college, said he had not dis
covered the need for more drastic
rules than those now governing col
lcge athletics, and knew of no stiff
ciont reason for removing restrictions
on summer baseball play.

NOT JORDAN
BUT JORDAN

a good kick IS far as it goes, but
Manager Kelley overlooked the SPELL
Ing of the name. Tom Jordan did not
box in Augusta, but Tommy Jordan
did. Now here is the story and there
was no attempt to fool the people or
trade on another name.
Tommy Jordan is the real name of
Pete Roy. In his correspondence to
Manager O'Brien. Manager Cassidy
gave the boys real name and also his
fighting name-Pete Roy Manager
OBrien made the mistake of using
the fighters real name in his pub
licity, which was Jordan and not
Jordan. When Cassidy arrived in
Augusta he said he was very much
surprised that the mistake had been
made, but rather than confuse the
public he allowed the matter to pass.
This is the explanation of both
O'Brien and Cassidy and the sporting
editor will say that he saw the let
ter referred to. There certainly was
no design to trade on Tom Jordan's
name.

Manager Kelly Says
Tom Jordan Did Not
Box IN Augusta. Me.

the Journal on Tuesday morning
received the following letter. which
tells Its own story-apparently.
Tom Kelly, Elm Rink,
New Bedford, Mass.
Feb. 20. 1922.
Sporting Editor Kenncbec Journal:
In looking over the Boston papers
l saw where Tom Harmon had X.
ga Tom Jordan of New Bedford in
two rounds. Now. as Tom Jorda MS
manager would like to say few
words.
Tom Jordan is looked upon down
this way Is the best looking prospect
at 14O pounds in New England. Tom
Jordan never was booked to box in
your city and last Friday night Tom
was at home in New Bedford. / don't
Know If someone put it over on YOU
or not, but l certainly would like to
see this Strengthened out, as it is a
rank injustice to a good boy and a
very poor sportsman like way to get
a rep.
Just to show the fairs down your
way that Harmon can't lick Jordan I
will let Tom go down and box him at
your club, winner to take all, Or any
way he likes.
The boy that boxed Tom Harmon
was Pete Roy of New Bedford and if
the club is fooling the public or let
ting some fight manager put it over,
/ think YOU will agree with me that
they should be sat on-for someone
put 1t over, as Jordan was never
hooked through me to box at Angus
ia.
Hoping YOU will let the public know
that Tom Jordan did not box Har-
mon, but he is willing to go down and
box him and will let Harmon in at
l42 pounds and thanking you in ad-
vance,
l. am yours for real sport,
TOM KELLY,
Mgr. Tom Jordan

between class room and athletic

and are always in perfect physical

The big part played by physical
development in the students lives in

most of the athletes make unusually
high grades and their extra athletic
activities simply take the place of
the afternoon teas popular at some

school authorities, however. give MIR.
Rockne's unique coaching system
most of the credit, this system he
ing explained by the mentor, as fol-
lows:
"All of the candidates for end on
the football team go through a
course of boxing. This makes them
shifty on their feet. teaches them
to stand hard knocks without losing
their feet, to keep their wits no
matter how hard they are hit and
never to lose sight of the objective
the man with the ball.
The linemen. during the off sea-
son. go through Il course of wrest-
ling. This makes it hard for the
opposing players to shove them back
and improves their leg and arm
muscles.
THE backfield men do a great
deal of skating. Thus they learn to
move quickly - improving their
dodging-and to stop or make sharp
turns without tearing their muscles"

for man trying for a Notre Dame
