i The final action of the representa-
tiyes Of nineteen colleges present at
the meeting before adjournment this
afternoon, was to adopt a summer
base BALI rule conforming to that
adopted at the recent meeting of the

student participating in college ath-
letics may play summer base ball in
a league which schedules more than
three games. a week.
The S. I. A. A. rule which was abro-
gated by this action permitted col
lege athletes to play on any profess
sional base ball team not a member
of an organized league.

ended and the army OF
nagnates who hopefully invaded
chicago last week home again with
"nly hoarse voices and aching

the question OF who will pilot the

Beyond admitting that he wanted
eddie Collins and endeavored un-
successfully to get him, Clark Crit

managerial situation. although he
intimates he has not abandoned all
hope OF landing the star second
baseman and captain OF the Chicago
