asked why, his reply was that it
would have been a much better
shot had it been on line, even if
much farther over or much shorter.
Won Elm is a master at splitting
the pin. as they call these shots
that are true to line.
Yes. the good approach player ex.
tends his arms full length and out
along the line Of flight after he has
hit the ban. The reason is that
this move gives him a greater fac.
tor of safety in the matter of stay
ing on line,, for his stroke for the
last quarter of the downswing and
the first quarter of the upswing
after contact Is on the line he
wishes to send the ball. Were he
to lift the club up over his left

tendencyswould be to pull the ball

disappearance of the Brown game,

years between the Princeton and Yale
encounters led it into the undesirable

the so-called big three contests. and
later as much too steep an obstacle to

Ban ON Caldwell Precipitated
By Reporters Feature Story

with this as a basis, 1t was explained
today, q reporter set out to write a
feature story of the Rhode Island
boy, who helped so largely to defeat
his former teammates"
In the preparation of the story a
reporter raised the question as to
whether Caldwells play at Brown did
not run foul of the rules, and the
opinion was expressed that 1t did not.
since the only agreement affecting
the Yale-Brown game was the fresh.
man rule. Inquiry at New Haven,
however, showed that it did affect
Caldwell's right to play against Har.
ward or Princeton. and from this
inquiry Yale's action resulted.
The Brown Daily Herald. official
daily Of Brown University, in a cur
rent issues, says:
THAT Caldwell attended Brown was
no secret, for his picture appears In
the 1924 Liber Brunensis as one of
the members of the freshman foot
ball team, hs is listed in both the
Liber and the university catalogue of
that year and was mentioned a num-
ber Of times in the Herald base ball
stories during the 1923 foot ball

12.-Many factors enter into the ques

opportunity for competitive athleti

being one of the necessities for
thoroughgoing, whole-hearted rivalr.
in the foot ball relations between tw'
schools. The same factors, of course
extend to other sports.
Listed categorically, these factors
include, among others:
Size of school and number Of
students available for competitive
athletic teams.
Number and training of per.
sonnel in charge Of physical educa-
ton generally and competitive
teams in particular
Size, character and equipment Of
the plant used by competitive
athletic teams.
Amount of time the student body
has available for athletic or recre-
ational activities, especially those
out for intercollegiate teams.
Requirement for scholastic eliGi-
bility and the ease or impossibilitv
of removing classroom deficiencies.
Number of games in which the
player participates.
Time permitted away from class.
rooms on trips.
Size of the competing schools Is
not as pertinent as the number
of students available as candidates
for competitive teams. Columbia.
for instance, and Chicago are large
schools. Both have graduate de-
partments of large enrolment,
while Columbia has many part.time
students. In each the number OF
men available for competitive
teams is not representative Of total
yearly enrolment.
The amount of time the studen
has to devote to recreation is par
of the same question. Because of th'
required practice work in field ant
laboratories students have less and less
time to devote to recreation. This !:
