SUMMER BASEBALL
 STRONGLY OPPOSED
Case of Charles Paddock Also Up
 for Discussion

Atlanta, Ga.. Dec. 2S.--Gencral
 Palmer E. Pierce, president of the National Collegiate Athletic Associa- tion, reviewed the accomplishments of the past year, outlined the aims of the association and discussed the case of Charlie Paddock, champion sprinter in his annual address before the convention of the organization in session here today.
 He urged strict administration of the amateur law, with particular ref erence to summer baseball. The situation with regard to the playing of professional and emi-profcssional baseball was particularly bad in certain parts of New England, he said, where there is no uniformity of practice in the treatment of the sub ject.
 General Pierce urged all colleges to initiate steps that will lead to the greatest possible use of the Olympic games for the stimulation of track and field events throughout the country by holding sectional or con- ference tryouts. the place winners of which will be entitled to enter the final Olympic tryouts at Boston under the colors of their respective educa- tional institutions.
 One of the controversial matters to be discussed by the association dur ing today's session, he said, will re- volye around the unfortunate incl dent connected with Mir. Paddock's participation in the university of Paris games last May" He read con- siderable correspondence he had had with officials of the amateur athletic union, which has barred Paddock from competing in this years Olym- pie games, and expressed the opinion that there may have been misunder- in connection with the case.
 He said that Paddock had never to the National Collegiate Athcltic Association with reference to his case, and said he understood the A. A. |. had barred Paddock from the coming games at the request of tho Olympic executive committee.

By The Associated Press
 Paris, Dec. 2S,-The delegation sent here from Greece to persuade eN-Pre- mier Nenizelos to return home and help unravel Greece's political tanglc arrived here today after an unpleas- ant voyage of eight days on the storm -lashed Mediterranean. Its members were happy to discover that their mission had been accomplished for them by telegraph while they were on the way.
 NJ. Nenizelos gave luncheon in their honor and subsequently began conference with them regarding the situation. His departure is fixed for some time within the next As hours, the exact hour being held secret.
 The Greek delegation. headed by Professors Karoids and Hadjidakis of Athens university. represents all classes of the people and all the Greek parties. Professor Karolidis was till qnite recently one of the most bitter Of the anti-Nenizelists. The general non partisan sentiment the delegates represent, which was made known to the eX-premier by wire while he delegation was on the way here. is the factor that persuaded him to decide to return 10 Athens tempor- ariiy.
 His closest councillors here say Nenizolos is not quite sure just how much he can do to help Greece out of her political confusion, and they fully expect he will refuse to take the re- sponsibility Of forming q new govern mcnt.
 He will give all the help he can without returning to power, ii is fore cast. IL is thought possible tine pres surc will be so great that he may bc induced to accept the post Of foreign minister, but he would prefer to act as d sort of travelling foreign minister ii is undcrst od. believing he could do more for Greece outside tho country than at home.
 In any ease, his friends say, the ON premier will decline my post which would involve responsibility for in- terior politics. because of the bitter ness developed during his long con fiict with the late King Constance. Tho temporary character of his crcn- tual action in Athens is held to be in- dicatcd by the fact that he has estab- l'shed a permanent home in Paris, | where Madame Nonizelos will remain during his trip 10 Athens. He will bc | accompanied only by his secretary, | Michael Opoulos.

Earth Would Burst If Planet

Archer, s. j., astronomical observer

fix that Beta Ceti and it's peoples il
it were inhabited, are in. IL this
sphere got in the same fix, the incl
newspapers of other planets; the Mars
Messenger would interview the Mars
tan astronomers and announce that
another planet had flared up in the
sky.
Result Of a Collision.
Beta Ceti, the astronomer explain
ed today, is burning up because it
either collided with or approached too
closely to another star. Father Archer
holds the theory that while the end of
this world might come about in a
similar way, thus fulfillin: the Bibii-
cal prophesy of destruction by fire
Gnd birthstone, it is not at all prob
able.
He agrees with Camille FlammariOn,
noted French astronomer, that il some
meteoric body or dying sun either
struck the earth or approached near
enough. there would occur n vast in
ternal upheaval which though minute
and lost in the vault of the Heavens,
would destroy all vegetable and am.
NAL matter on the earth. Humanity
could not exist under the appalling
stress of asphyxiating gases and the
colossal heat.

Science Defeats Hours
Decreed by Wallace

Washington. April 3. - Dirt far
mer methods may be effective in some
parts of the Department of Asricu!-
ture-
But Science has triumphed over the
Time Clock.
Secretary Wallace has modified his
order to make all employees of the de-
partment punch the time clock. The
scientists have won exemption.
Announcement of the clock method
didn't get an enthusiastic shout from
the internationally prominent men
whose scientific work has saved mil
lions to farmers every year and re-
duced life loss all over the world. They
declared a regimen of getting TO work
at ., taking half an hour off for lunch
and working again until 1 80 impair
ed their work.
The scientists argued that they
had become accustomed to their own
methods of research and study. They
cited that much of their most valuable
work was done late at night. And
furthermore, they let it be known that
the scientific mind depends upon the
mood, not the number of working
hours, for its effectiveness.
Wallace Strict.
Wallace declined to give in at first.
He insisted all bureau chiefs should
be at their desks promptly at .. as
he always is. But he is now miti-
eating the severity of the ruling for
the scientific men.
Which means that the following ex-
perts are happily working according
to their usual schedules:

gist, honorary member of many for
eign scientific societies, president. As

crust OF the earth-the part that has
cooled off sufficiently for people TO
live on it and to plant crops. The
Grange would be the white hot mass
inside the earth with its burning, pois-
onous gases.
Even now. these gases cause the
earth to swell and deflate from six
teen to twenty inches without outside
attraction. If a star such as Alpha
Centauri approached the earth even
as closely as the sun, which is 03. 000,-
600 miles away. the heat would be-
come so intense that human life would
be impossible. The tidal attraction
between the two stars. Father Archer
s0id. would be so great that the crust
of the earth would be broken and the
gases released.
Possible But Not Probable.
"Such a calamity" he added, ais
entnirely possible. 1t is however, mere
ly problematical, one of those things
we speculate upon. AS a practical
proposition, it is not probable that
one of the celestial bodies would come
close enough to cause an explosion Of
the earth"
Figures that convey the amount
of the national debt appear as insig.
nificant trifies alongside the distance
between the earth and Alpha Centauri.
The star is 127, 900. 600. 100000 miles

explained. The relative distance be-
tween the two reducing their size for
illustration would be represented by

Washington and another football held
