RECORD TELLS Why COAL is HIGH

Paterson, N. j., September 20th.-
Assailing the explanation of Senator
Joseph S. Frelinghuysen, who has de-
clared he did his best to combat the
power of the Coal Trust, George L.
Record, talking here last evening, said
that an investigation conducted by
him proves that Frelinghuysen merely
"camouf1aged" and that the Senator
made no honest, intelligent or bona
ide attempt to deal with the question.
Mr.. Record, who is opposing Senator
Frelinghuysen for the Republican
nomination for United States Senator,
further said that his opponent DELHI
erately pretended to be fighting the
Trust when he knew it was impossible
for any legislation injurious to the
Trust to be passed at the time. He
said:
Senator Frelinghuysen at the be-
ginning of the campaign made an eff
fort to give the impression that he had
tried to do something in the Senate
about the Coal Trust. l have had an
investigation made of the Senator's
activities in that line which confirms
my previous impression hat he had
made no intelligent or bona fde at
tempt to deal with this question. In
1921 he introduced a bill to lower
freight rates on coal, fifteen per cent
in the summer and increase them ff-
teen per cent in the winter When this
hill oopoo nm FOR dicouccion q numhar
of the Senators pointed out that this
would not benefit the in any
way because little coal was shipped
in the warm weather and great guam
titles are shipped in cold weather.
Several Senators also pointed out that
the coal hauling railroads by about
n hundred million dollars a year.
The Senator was unable to back up his
bill in debate and it went back into
committee and was never afterwards
heard from. Later, Mr.. Frelinghuysen
of the Coal Trust. Instead of intro
ducing this bill in the usual way and
having it referred to committee and
brought up for debate in the Senate
he brought it up on what is known as
Calendar Day, when under the rules
of the Senate no bills about which
there is a difference of opinion can be
considered. In other words, he brought
his bill up without having it pre-
viously read in the Senate and at q
time when there. could be no possible
chance of discussion of the bill under
the rules. As soon as this point de-
yeloped the Senators unanimously SEN
it to committee, and it was ley
again heard of. If Senator Freling-
huysen had been in earnest about the
matter he would have prepared to de-
fend his first bill and to force discus
sion upon it and would not have let i
die in committee. If he had really
desired an Investigation, he would no
have brought his investigating meas
ure up at a time when it could no
even be discussed under the rules O
the Senate. If he had meant business
he would not have allowed these bill!

SAY DODGERS
ARE STRONGER;
CITES REASONS

Jacksonville, Fla, March IS
Manager Wilbur Robinson is con-
fident his Brooklyn team will make
a much better showing this season
than in 1921.
Here are five reasons that Robbie
offers for being SO optimistic:
Walter (Dutch) Ruether came to
Brooklyn dissatisfied last spring,
put Boss Ebbets on his mental
blacklist and broke training before
the season even started.
He has married since, received a
voluntary salary increase and now
votes Ebbets a prince. He prom

cause.
lack Wheat and Hy Myers did
not report until the squad broke
the training camp 81 New Orleans
last spring and were never right
all season. This year they both re-
ported early and are getting into
the pink.
Caddy Galore pitched his head
off trying to beat Babe Ruth and
the rest of the Yankees on the 1921
exhibition tour and complained that
these efforts lost him a lot of
games in the championship cam
paign.
Robbie has decided to let Galore
and the rest of his aces work only
about two games each in the "A
with the Yanks and ease them into
the 1922 race.
Sherry Smith had no ambition
last year. He is now a fond papa
and as full of work as a rookie.
He is adding an underhand ball to
his repertoire of slants and prom
ises to be left-handed Carl MAYS
before the big show opens.
Otto Miller was the only depend
able catcher last year. Ernie Krue-
ger has been sold and two ripe
backstops in Barney Hungling and
Hank DeBerry secured in his
stead. lack Taylor, with a couple
of major league seasons behind
him, ought to have improved.

CAMP ANALYZES
SPORT REFORMS
OF BIG THREE
Would Stick in DUN
Yards for Football
Games.
By WALTER CAMP.

tOOpyTlRuI, 1879, Dy Inc AISuS.D
The period of defation which has
marked the business and manufac-
turing world has spread now to
college athletics and there are con-
ferences of all kinds going on with
the avowed object Of bringing ath-
letic reform. The prophecies made
in this column that the growth of
this new giant would have to be
curbed are coming true. Perhaps
as good a vision as any of the
methods to be adopted appear in
the platform accepted by the Har,
ward Crimson, the Yale News and
the Daily Princetonian, as follows !:
l. There shall be no organized
practice before the formal opening
of colleges in the fall.
2. Intersectional games shall be
abolished. No football games shall
be played by the Big Three except
at New Haven, Princeton or Cam
bridge.
3. A committee of the three col
leges on eligibility shall be formed
to which all candidates for major
sports must submit a signed state
ment OF their amateur standing and
Of the sources of their financial
maintenance at college.
4. No transfer student may COM
pete in major sport until he shall
nave passed the entrance examina-
tons of Yale, Princeton or Har-
ward, as the case may be.
5. No coach shall sit on the side
line bench or communicate with
the players on the field or on the
bench during the periods of play
6. Organized scouting shall be
abolished.
Conferences are now going on re-
gardlng this platform, and natural
ly certain provisions must be made.
For instance. under No. l, barring
Football practice previous to the
formal opening of the colleges in
the fall, it will be necessary either
to defer the dates of the early mi
tial games or else insist upon the
candidate getting into some meas
ure of physical fitness before they
return. In the former case the
number of minor games will have
to be lessened.
AS to the second. Princeton has a
game with Chicago to be played in
Chicago this fall. and provision
will have to be made for that.
Three. the eligibility clause does
not materially differ from what has
been supposed to be the arrange
ment previously.
Four, the barring of the trans
ferred athlete is a much needed
provision.
Five, RELOCATING the coach to the
stands would undoubtedly develop
greater initiative in the players.
Six, regarding organized scout
ing, will eliminate paid scouts and
the sending of men as observers
where expenses are borne by the
athletic association. This will give
some greater opportunity for STRAIT
egg in this development of new
players.

SCHAEFER GETS
34-P0INT LEAD
OPENING BLOCK
Hoppe Displays Remarkable Skill.
However, and Play is About
Even.

Chicago, March 2S.-Jake Schae-
fer, worlds champion 1872 billiard
list, will have an opportunity from
his shot tonight to increase the "a
point lead he established last night
over Willie Hoppe, former cham
pion, when he won. the first block
of their 1900 point three-night
match. 500 to 466. Rounding out
his fifth century with an unfinish-
ed run of "a, Schaefer. left the
balls nicely grouped at the head OF
the table for his opening shot to-
night.
Hoppe, in his new role of chal-
lenger, and Schaefer played bill
lizards that ran virtually the gamut
of the games possibilities. Hoppe,
with his old time delicate stroke,
was the master of smooth nursing.
His masses, although at times hes
itated over, we're executed with re-
markable precision and only infre'
quently was he forced to table
length drives.
The young champion almost in
variably had difficulty in getting
the balls together and gave a great
display of hard shot making. On
his nights high run, 252 in the
fourth inning, Schaefer's first IL
shots were of the extremely diff
cult type and table-length caroms
predominated.
At times both showed poorly.
Virtually Even.
Except for the possibilities of
Schaefer's opening play tonight,
the game so far might be regarded
as virtually even, the "a point diff
ference in strings not being regard
ed as a great factor.
Without the champions uncom-
pleted inning, the honors last night
were the former champions. Hoppe
had the higher run. 260, against
Schaefer's 252, and the best aver
age, 81 10, as against Schaefer's
so Hoppe counted in every inning,
although the first and eighth show
ed only twos and the ninth one.
Schaefer registered a blank in the
first, after he had won the bank and
missed the opening shot, and fail
ed to count again in the third. In
the ninth inning he counted only
one.
Play Safe.
In the last part of the game bril-
liant safety play accounted for the
small scoring, although it appeared
that at times both Schaefer and
Hoppe missed easy chances, especi-
ally the champion in the sixth in
ming, when he had the score 446 to
1874 and missed both balls on a
masse He had counted 146 points
in that run and appeared to have
victory in the first block in his
grasp.
Hoppe. displaying grim nerve,
and summoning his old mastery,
clicked off 260 points and drew
into a lead
Schaefer, apparently disconcert-
ed by this recovery, played only
inferior billiards for the next three
innings, although his careful leaves
permitted Hoppe nothing. In the
10th frame Schaefer got the ball
together after a few hard shots
and ran the unfinished "a.

RECRUIT CATCHERS
LACK REAL CLASS

New Orleans. March 28.-Man-
ager Higgins has decided that
none of the recruit backstops
with the Yankees will be able TO
make the grade.
This means he will again put
the catching problem up to his
trio of last year, Schang, Devor-
mer and Hoffman.
While the Yankee staff isn't
the best in the league it is far
from being the worst.
The fine style in which De-
vormer came through last fall
has greatly relieved any worry
that Higgins might have had.
Previous to Devormer's great
work, Higgins felt that an in
jury to Schang spelled disaster
for the Yankees. That situation
no longer exists.
