Leaders of Illinois Colleges VIII
Discuss Problem at Coming
Meeting.

Jacksonville, Ill, Feb. 16-Pro-
fessionalism in college athletics
will engage presidents of Illinois
colleges in a discussion at North
western university. at Evanston.
Monday, Feb. 20, at the annual
of the Federation of Illinois
Colleges, it was announced here by
President J. R. Harker of the ILL
nois Woman's college. who has
headed the federation for the last
two years.
The Present Day Athletic Stu
alton will be the subject of dis
cussion, President Harker said. The
controversy, which has recently
caused disqualification of some of
the foremost college and university
athletes of the country, will be re-
viewed for the federation by o. z.
Pence, state. student secretary of
the Young Mems Christian associa-
tien, Chicago. whose opinions will
be the basis for the discussion of the

STOCK SIGNS UP
EARLY TO PLAY
WITH CARDINALS

st. Louis, Mo, Feb. 16.-Milton
Stock, star third baseman for the
St. Louis Nationals, has signed his
contract for 1922, it was announced
today.
In the contract was a clause in
which Stock agreed to report at
the Cardinal training camp at Or
ange. Texas, not later than March
I. If he reports as agreed, it will
be the first time since Stock became
a member of the st. Louis Nation
ais several years ago that he has
been among the athletes at the be-
ginning Of the spring preparatory
work.
Receipt of Stocks signed contract
brought 10 seven the number of
players VINO have signed new con-
tracts. Other players have con-
tracts which carried from last sea-
son. Those signed are Stock, La
van and Teporcer, infielders, and
outfielders, Heathcote, Mueller,
Mann and McHenry.
The signing of Stock, Manager
Branch hickey said, removed the
of worry about him not
reporting in good condition tor the
season. Last year Stock
did not sign until the 18th hour,
spring training and report
ed only in time for the first game,
but was not in condition to play.

COLOR THEME TO

GIANT UNIFORMS

The New York Giants will not
sport the title World Champions
across their chest next summer.
McGraw originated the idea years
ago and it didn't make much of a
hit with fandom or players. Con-
sequently it went into the dis
card
The Cleveland club dug up the
idea after beating Brooklyn. and
so Iettered the uniforms of the
Indians. The idea got the Cleve-
land players many q 'razzing" last
summer, in games in which they
were being badly beaten.
However, the fans will know the
Giants are in the park when they
trot on the field. The World Cham =
pions title Will be missing, but the
uniforms will be 4 riot OF color.
The home suits will be white with
4 violet stripe and the initials IN

will be red, white and blue and The

COLLEGES NOT
FOR SURVEY BY
CARNEGIE FUND
Unlikely Proposal of
Pierce Will Be
Accepted.
By WALTER CAMP.

Copyright, 1922, by The Argus.)
New York, Feb. 16.-The propos-
al of Colonel Palmer E. Pierce,
president of the National Coilegi-
ate association, that the Carnegie
foundation undertake a survey of
college athletics does not seem
destined to meet with satisfactory
response. The matter is to be re-
ferred to various colleges for ap-
prevail and nobody knows just what
the result of this referendum will
be. The plan is not likely to prove
effective unless it has the support
of large majority of the prominent
colleges. So far as history relates,
few of the larger and older institu-
tons propose to let the control of
athletics pass out OF their hands.
This came to light very plainly at
the last meeting of the National
Collegiate association, in New
York, in December when both
Princeton and Harvard voiced that
view
This has been one of the diff
culties of securing uniform rules

are not the same at another and
regulations which would be ap-

refer to matters of eligibility ex-
cept insofar as the freshman rule
and legislation of this kind is con-
cerned. The general proposition of
professional and amateur" is
clean cut. But there are instances
whsre a freshman rule works ad-
mirably and also cases where any
freshman organization could count
on only a very limited schedule. In
such places the rule requiring one
year in college before a man could
be eligible for varsity teams has
really operated to keep freshmen
out of athletics generally.
A good many of the replies al
ready received by President Pierce
state that the college authorities
in question think that an investiga-
ton should be made and believes
it should be made by the National
Collegiate association itself and not
by the Carnegie foundation. Still
other college officials take the
stand that all that is necessary to
live to the rules are those at pres

GET CHANCE TO LLFT.CROWN OF
VETERAN CHAMP, JACK BRITTON
BIZ FAIR PLAY.

Copyright, 1922, by the Argus)
New York, Feb. 16.-Dave Shade,
the fast Californian, who will fight
Jack Britton for the welterweight
championship at the Madison
Square Garden on Friday night, is
the worst advertised good fighter
that ever hit Broadway. There is
not an eighth of the interest over
this battle that was manifested in
the meeting of Benny Leonardsan
Rocky Kansas. Yet there are
shrewd judges of the fight game
who pick Shade to take the meas
ure of the champion. 1t is possible
these experts are influenced by the
last fight between the two, in Ore
gon. Upon that occasion, as will
be recalled, Shade received credit
for a knockdown, although it ap-
pears that upon that, historic oc-
casion Britton slipped. Again, he
was on tour throughout the coun-
try at the time and was not in the
best of condition to meet a man
such as Shade.
There will be no such mistake
this time. Jack is in the pink and
if Dave Shade takes him he will
have no alibi, unless it be the long
period of inaction he has just
passed through. Not since July
% last has the champion fought
and he is a fighter who needs ac-
ton Shade is not a terrific punch
er and it would seem the champion
has little to fear from punch that
with another fighter would be a
Touchdown But if he is not thor
oughly timber and his eyes attuned
to distance, Shade may win on
points. Remember the word is
"may."
Which ever wins will probably be
called upon to do battle with Mickey
Walker. Shade did a bit better
against the Jersey man than Brit
ton but Walker has been coming
fast. However, to get back to the
starting point, the public interest
or rather lack of public interest in
this Britton-Shade setto is pro-
nounced. Unless the situation
bucks up within "a hours Tex Rick
ard is liable to have the pain of
looking upon lots of vacant seats.

OF PERMITTING

Kansas City Mo. Feb. 16.-In a
statement to the Associated Press
today Newton c. Gillian explained
his suggestion to Judge Lands of
permitting the batter to attempt a
steal of the first sack According
to Mr.. Gillian rules should be
made which would entitle the bat
ter to make an effort to steal first
base in case OF a passed ball." or,
if the "outs" were running a man
down between the bases. Mr.. Gill
ham contended that if the fielders
in some manner throw the ball
away" the batter should be entitled

NEW WORLD MARK IN BOWLING IS
HUNG UP BY MILWAUKEE MAN

A new worlds record has been
established in bowling.
On Feb.'4 at Madison, Wis, in
the singles event of the Wisconsin
state tournament. Herbert Ewald
of Milwaukee rolled a total of 1888.
Previous to. Ewald's performance,
the best score in state or national
events was 1877. This record was
held by another Milwaukee bowler.
Wally Swift, who established his
mark in 1919
Ewald gave a consistent -per-
Torrance. getting 247 in his first
game, 244 in the second game and
coming right back with PAT in the
final game
Ewald had only one break in the
series. 1t came in the second frame
OF the second game when he picked
the number pin off the number 9.
In the 10th frame of the final
game a perfect hit left the 10 pin
standing. That was the crucial mo-
ment of the entire series. :
p Ewald needed that 10 pin spare to
set new record. He made It with
ease. He proved that he had the
nerve of a champion.

Present Football Best.

Fielding H. Yost, coach of the
Michigan football team, is credited
with the statement that present day
football teams are superior to those
of the old times. The game has
changed so much and so radically
that it is difficult to measure teams.
Men, however. can be measured for
the same qualities which made
football player in bygone years one
today. Sand, sense and speed were
as valuable then as they are today
and there were plenty of players in
the olden times who combined all
these qualities. Many of these
have been frequently mentioned but
the writer has noted one omission
from such recent discussion. The
name omitted is that OF Hector Cow
an, the old Princeton star AS a
linesman he would have made any
all-American team today.

The Cambridge high school team

to be made to get Cambridge in the

said. because of agreements made
by the various high schools to
abide by the state athletic associa-

question but that the local tourna-
