I'v what was almost a unanimous
vote, the* American Federation of Mu
saeians in convention at Cincinnati,
declared itself opposed to prohibition
as an unwarranted interference with
the liberty of the individual.
The following appeared in the Cin
cinnati Knquirer:
A strong resolution against prohi
bition and llie nomination of officers
v ere the principal business of the
convention of the American Federa
tion 01 Musicians yesterday.
At the afternoon session the follow
ing resolution was adopted by a prac
tically unanimous vote:
"This convention protests against
any movement that has for Its pur
pose the circumscribing of that liberty
of individual thought and action which
is essentially the underlying principle
of a democracy founded on the basic
declaration of guarantees such as in
augurntod in the United States.
Why They Did It.
" V an organization for the pur
pose of assisting the economic pro
gress of the wage workers, we are en
tirely within the province of moral
consistency to emphasize that more
(‘specially do we lake issue with all j
propaganda w hich, if adopted, not'
only destroy vested property values, j
acquired and developed under prolec
• ion of law, hut also deprive a multi-1
tude of wage earners of their means I
of existence as being without justice
or equity.
"The intellectual, commercial, indus
trial. political, social and physical con
dition in countries where some of the
theories now being agitated here have
already been ill force are not such as
to invite or warrant application or ex
periment in the United Slates."

Gossip About Events of National
Importance and the Persons

SAN FRANCISCO, Oct. 18. — •'In
terference.” one of the outstanding
features of the American game of
football, is the basis of Stanford uni
vet itj objection to Ant code and
largely respim.ible for the fact that
the I’alo Allan still are adhering to
the British Rugby game. A state
ment given out recently by Dr. Frank
Angell. head of the faculty athletic
committee, is, in part, as follows:
"Some fourteen years ago we start
ed in on i he general athletic policy
for which Stanford now enjoys some
considerable reputation throughout the
country the policy of ‘general par
ticipation.' The chief obstacle in the
way of the spread of that policy was
found to he the Vmerican game of
football, chiefly for this reason it was
abolished Specifically the ruling was
passed a l« \i years later that no foot
ball game admitting interference
would ii* allowed as an official game
on the campus.
"As is evident from the football
cmidition in most \meriean colleges
the objections lo the American game
which were chiefly operative in its
abolishment arc still valid, and there
i not the slightest prospect that the
ruling as regards interference will be
rescinded in any prospective time.
"The question of preference for one
form of game as opposed to another
is not at issue here. A university
administration has no business with
preferences which it would fry to
impose on the students; but a univer
sity administration has, or should
have, a clear out athletic policy, and
in pursuance of that policy it should
take such measures as it thinks wise.
"The policy of Stanford for more
than fourteen years has been that of
opening up and broadening athletics—
that i the policy of general partici
pation W ith that policy the American
game of football is in conflict. To
think that there is going to he any
j chance or reversal of this policy and
j bring down the football situation here
| to the level that exists In most Am
erican colleges today is out of the
question.”
With the Pacific coast baseball
championship being fought for by the
clubs of Los Angeles and Vernon and
none of the other four teams consid
ered any longer as being serious con
tenders, the trailing organizations al
ready are talking plans for next sea
son.
That there will be a number of up
heavals and realignments among the
various organizations is generally ex
pected, and in the case of one or two
of the teams it would occasion no
great surprise if new faces predomi
nated in next season's lineup. San
Francisco has been lamentably weak
in its pitching department and Man
ager Wolverton's chief task during
the winter months will consist in an
endeavor to remedy the cause which
proved fatal to his pennant aspira
tions this year.
Manager McCredie, of the Portland
club, already has intimated that the
Northwestern team is due for a gen
eral shakeup. Oakland's lowly posi
tion as tail-ender of the league is
generally ascribed to lack of proper
leadership and earlier in the season
rather than to lack of baseball talent
among the nlayprs.
Salt Lake is going through the
throes of managerial uncertainties and
even the leading Los Angeles team
seems, at the moment, uncertain of
retaining its present leader, Frank
Chance, who is reported to be wanted
in the east in a managerial capacity
for one of the big league organizations.
I HP i pi * * II l muvi:p«» ul iwuiirru tear
old R. T. Jones on eastern golf links
is likely to give a decided impetus
to the game all over the country
among the youngsters according to
11. \V I’otslethwaite, president of the
Northern California Golf Association.
“Only a boy can achieve the proper
golf swing," he says. “The man who
takes to golf when his frame is set
is never certain of his game. He is
sometimes good, but oftener ragged.
Travers is the only man who ever
took to golf late in life and made a
big success of it. This boy should in
spire many emulators and a great
crop of American golfers as irresis
tibly efficient as our tennis players
and track athletes.”
With the opening game of the Se
attle Water Tolo league recently that
city lays claim to be the first to have
an unattached water polo league. As
far as can be determined by th*» pro
moters of the Seattle league, the game
never before has been attempted as
an independnt sport, in most cases
being associated with colleges and
clubs. The style of polo played ia also
said to be a “made in Seattle” variety,
with innovations introduced by the
local players.
George H. Dowsing, coach of the
Crystal polo team, is the inventor or
the new game, which combines the
American and English styles with ad
ded innovations in the methods of
passing which is one of the principal
features.
The league at present consists of
four teams, which includes the Se
attle Athletic Club.
