All-This and All-That is the recent
gathering of the Central Union high

Of the local high school for next
year.
The El Centro team has gone
through a victorious season to score

amongst eight opponents in 10
games, and has won the Glass B

Should some general appear great
enough to get this sheaf of play
ers together on one team, that
might be the team which could
hand the El Centrans a defeat-a

could come within a mile of doing

The Spartan prospects for next
year, however, seem equally divid-
ed between gloom and sunshine as
this is written.

The loss of these 10 players will
be keenly felt when coaches next
fall take up the task of building
a new team.
OF the eight remaining lettermen
five were regulars on the cham
pionship squad this year. Players
around whom next years team will
be formed are Maiden, halfback
Jones, halfback, Berry, fullback
O'Guin, quarterback, SWink, half
back, and Templeton, Byrd q
Couch, guards.
Players lost through graduation
are Ike Price. flashy quarterback

see, Tackett and Butler. tackles
and Reed, Edgar and Hartsog, Gen.

Those left for next years line
up insure a good, if not a great
backfield but presage little for the
line. Mentors of the high school,
gridders will be faced with the by
no means easy task of developing
an almost entirely new line.
Whether the 1882 squad will equal
feats performed by the 1881 team

SALARY SLASH

LOS ANGELES. Dec. rs. UP) -
Pacific Coast league baseball play
ers face next year a reduction of
salaries which may range as high
as $3.50 TO S400 a month, it be-
came known today.
Although refusing to reveal the
exact extent of the pay slashes
contemplated. william Lane, man
ager of the Hollywood Stars. and
Oscar Reichow, of the Los Angeles
Angels, admitted that drastic" re-
adjustments were contemplated:
Reichow said
"A plan was suggested at the re-
cent coast league meeting to make
5000 a month wages top for mex.
year How closely the majority of
magnates will observe this sug-
gestion is not known. and may be-
come a major point of discussion
when the owners convene at Oak
land next month.
Frank Shellenbaca. spitball
pitcher for the Stars: Arnold Statz.
outfielder. and Fred Hanev. third
sacker for the Angels. each are re-
ported to receive around $1,000 a
month. and under such a program
would be cut S40O.
1t we. reported that because
some trouble is anticipated in ef-
tecting the reductions. clubs in the
league will be allowed leeway from
the 5000 suggested as the top, but
will endeavor to conform as CLOSELY
as possible
There are several PLAYERS who
received $500 and $3.50 last year
who would take a cut OF from $500
to $3.50 under the program.
The San Francisco Seals had the
lowest payroll last year. their out
lay for salaries being reported at

In TODAY'S NEWS
BY SIDNEY b. WHIPPLE
Pinch Hitting for Henry McLemore

NEW YORK, Dec. %. U.P) - A
lot of pious calculations about pro-
fessionalism in college sports leave
me colder than absolute zero, which
as every scientist knows, is several
degrees colder than the heart of a
Follies girl.
The gentlemen who, with upraised
mittS, say they believe a coach
should accept such material as
comes to him in the course of events,
and from it try to mould cham
pionship teams, without ever try
ing to improve his product by Sc
lecting raw material, are splendid
theorists but bad business men.
Coaching a football team is as
professional a trade as laying bricks
or persuading a judge, ethically of
course, that black is white. The
success of a coach is judged by the
games he wins. Already he is hem
ed in by rules that say a player
must also be a scholar. Shall he
also be restricted by regulations as
to the source of his material?
It is claimed that certain good
scholars of high school age choose
their colleges not by the standard
of education provided them, but by
the notoriety achieved by the foot
ball coach. They want to go to the
school where they can get the most
football and not the most arche-
ology. Is an athlete TO be scorned
as having no proper niche in todays
civilization?
Sooner or later, if the theorists,
purists. investigators, meddlers and
muddlers will leave the thing alone,
the situation may adjust itself. Ihe
law of supply and demand will be-
come active. When Notre Dame has
graduated sufficient coaches to
populate every gridiron in the coun-
try. and everybody is playing the
same double -wingback or approach
forcing system, boys will go to COL
lege to learn things and not to play
football.
Then undoubtedly, they will give
up football, and the public will be-
come interested in other forms OF
sport. such as Badminton, Old Maid,
One-Or-Sat, and I-Spy.
The chief complaint against the
so-called professionalism that is
said to exist on SO many campuses,
comes first from disappointed pro-
fessors who have more interest In
lambic pentimeters than cross
bucks. and who believe that scan-
ming a verse of Liyy is a more
practical value than knowing how
to reverse your field.
The second complaint comes from
certain institutions which, like Har-
ward. Yale and Princeton, used to
be big shots in the football racket
and which today find themselves
edged out of the picture by the
more beetle browed gentry of the
west and middle west.
