KAY JAY
SPORT
CHAT

frankie DeRice has signed UP
Johnny Drew Of Worcester and
Charley Manly of New Bedford to
appear in the Exposition building
tomorrow evening. Manly must be
good to let Drew coax him into the
same ring with him. Drew is one
OF the best featherweightS in the
world and is not barring any of
them. A good preliminary cara sup
ports the bout.
They are having a lot OF trouble
down Rockland way as to who is eli
gible to compete in athletics and who
lis not. The KnoX-Lincoln League
has been somewhat disrupted by the
fact that Camden protested q man,
claiming that he was down in three
studies. This would automatically
make him ineligible, provided that
the coast school makes any preten-
sions of going by the A. A. u. The
officials at Rockland are said to have
admitted that their man was down
in studies but came back with the
statement that they never agreed to
be governed by any such rules. Now
Rockland wants to resume athletic
rules with Camden providing that
eligibility rules can be made agree
able to both parties.
There is only one set of rules re-
garding eligibility in this State and
that is the set governing the second
airy schools of Maine. Every team
should follow them and take the bit
ter with the sweet. The team that
fails to heed the eligibility rules and
continues to encourage a man to par
ticipate in athletics despite the fact
l.. t., h IL s-h L.,
dropped from the list of all other
teams until said team is willing to
go by the rules which the others fol-
low.
The school officials Of the Knox
Lincoln League are to meet next
week at Rockland and it is thought
that several amendments to the sec
ondary rules will be suggested. No
rules are so good that an amendment
,.annot be added making them better
out until the rules are changed the
rules should be strictly adhered to.
ANY team falling to live up to the
eligibility rules is encouraging ath-
letics without the necessary good
rank and is also taking advantage of
the teams which drop their men when
they drop down in rank. Such teams
should not be considered as oppon-
ents until they signify their inten-
tion~ OF abiding by the rules.
Princeton and Harvard took the first
step Saturday in an effort to patcS up
athletic differences. Despite the fact
that the apparently love each other
like cats like dogs, both arrangements
evidently can't pass up the capacity
crowd that attends the game every
fall.
