WILLING
TO COACH #
ASKED

Bill Roper will be back for an
other season If Princeton invites
him and this is Just what the Mas
sau officials intend to do unless
present sentiment is changed sud
denly. Roper intended to quit this
year because Of business demands
in Philadelphia, but recently he
told few intimates he could spare
the time next year if Princeton
wanted him.
There is some scattered opposition
to Roper among Princeton men who
claim he does not provide a perma-
nent system Of play, especially for
the offense. 1t is true that the
Tigers frequently change their style
in order to borrow play or two
from opponents, but. after all, re-
suits prove the value Of coaching.
and since Roper's return in 1913
Princeton has broken even with
Yale and won three, tied two, and
lost only one game to Harvard.
No Princeton coach ever eQualled
this showing and there's a growing
feeling at Princeton that Roper IL
best qualified to handle the coach
ing next year, although there was
much sounding Of the anvils after
the Tigers lost to Yale.
Roper was chiefly blamed for that
setback. although the truth Of the
matter is that the Princeton team,
flushed with the "a to Q victory
over Harvard, worked itself into a
mental state that simply invited
disaster, despite the. frantic efforts
Of the coaches.

CALLS JOHNSON
MENACE To
BASEBALL
Fred Lieb Thinks Bans Re-
tirement Would Solve
Games Troubles
By FREDERICK G. LIEB.

NEW YORK, Dec. 10.--The retire
ment OF Byron Bancroft, Johnson
from baseball would be one of the
best things which could happen to
the peace of baseball. 1t must be
apparent to the American League
owners that johnson cannot always
be right and everybody else in base.
ball be wrong.
At present he is on the outs with
Commissioner Lands, with Presi-
dent Heydler and most of~the Ma
tional League owners, with Comis-
key, of his own league, and now
with the entire minor league world.
From the Johnson point of view,
every one is out of step but Ban.
Johnson did much for baseball in
the past that was constructive and
for the welfare of the sport. Aided
by the zeal and force of Comiskey,
he successfully battled' the National
League and forced recognition of
his league as an equal partner in
the big league movement. He al
ways stood for clean baseball, and
hast stood strongly behind his suaI.
pires.
In the days of the old National
Commission he was a dominating
figure in baseball. And the loss Of
Johnson's former prestige has been
responsible for most of his later
day troubles. He found it difficult
and irksome to play second fiddle.
kohnson's dislike of Lands is for
no other reason than the fact that
the jurist became his superior and
that Lands was brought into base
ball over Johnson's head. Ban never
could reconcile himself to the situa-
ton, and from the very first began
to pull at counter purposes with
the new chief.
What the Amen san League seems
to need is a president who has no
AK to grind and one who is willing
to work tremendously with the
commissioner, the National League
and the minors for the good of
baseball.

Griffith and Johnson formerly
were a. intimate as ham and eggr.
There is a remote chance johnson

SPORTLlGHTS LOSE CLOSE
FIGHT TO OLYMPIA A. C..

The Olympia A.. C. basketers
proved to be slightly better than
the Spotlight A. c. quint in the
Salvation Army gym. They had the
upper hand in 25-to-23 battle, and
the Sportlights tried hard in the
latter stages of the game to tie the
score.
The game was replete with rough
play, and many of the points were
made through the medium of free
losses after fouls.
