(By H- f. Hamilton, United Press
Staff Correspondent)
NR" 'ORK, Feb. 19.—The spitball, ai
the emery ball, the rosin ball, and all at
the freak deliveries big league pitch- cl
ers have thrown into the baseball rules ai
in the last decade were prisoners at O
the bar when the board of directors 01
of the National league went into ses- u
sion here on February 12. ti
Following the lead of Governor John ri
K Tener. president of the National ti
league, and other leaders in the na- p
tional pastime, Barney Dreyfuss of ti
Pittsburgh, chief agitator of the elder ti
major circuit, was here with his grip ii
packed full of dope on a suggestion to Ji
shoot the malefactors at sunrise. He e
gained the support of a number of in- d
fluential men, and in view of the fact
that the American association, one of g
the most powerful of minor leagues, t
already has cast freak deliveries ii
among the discards, the prisoners may o
be forced to walk the plank. I
Usually drastic reforms bearing on c
rules of the game have to be looked vj
over and viewed from suspicion from \
every conceivable angle before the 1
powers of baseball decide to do any- 1
thing. The attack on freak deliveries r
during the winter, however, has been j
so strong that more than usual incen- i
five for a complete seperation is pres- s
ent. Governor Tener is so strongly
opposed to the spitball that his influ
ence, thrown into the lists, is certain!
to have a decided efTect. Governor j i
Tener is one man in the National I
league who generally gets what he!
goes after. If he should decide that!
he wants the scalp of the spitball,!
emery ball and its various cousins and 1
other near relations, why, the deliver-1
ies are quite likely to be scalpless.
governor reners objection to the j
deliveries is based mainly on the fact'
that filmy are not hygienic, that they!
are 'disgusting and unnecessary. Often'
the 'National league president has ex
pressed his displeasure toward the
spit ball in rather strong terms. He
has declared it to be his belief that
the average fan doesn't care a con
tinental whoop about a star pitcher
when he has to watch that pitcher first
spit on a baseball, then throw it up
to the batter, with the catcher ready
to catch the saliva-covered sphere. The
fielder, too. gets his, if the ball is hit.
and if he doesn’t watch his step he is
likely to toss the ball over the grand
stand when his fingers come in contact
with the wet spot on the ball.
At the same time the major leaguers
are quarreling about the spitball and
other such matters the International
league either will be passing in its
checks or getting ready to put over a
wobbly league to open the next season.
Ed G. Barrow has turned in his res
ignation as president of the league, and
it probably will be accepted. Arthur
Irwin, 'business manager of the To
ronto club, is a candidate for the of
fice.
A New Jack Dempsey
After all it may not be Fred Fulton
who gets a crack at Jess Willard’s
bothersome title.
There’s a guy from the far, far West
wandering around mussing up the
heavyweights, and he’s having so much
luck at it that he’s actually getting
some consideration as a probable op
ponent for the pacifist champion.
Jack Dempsey is his name, and it’s
a good old monicker, recollecting that
the famous “Nonpareil” toted it with
him when he was considered the very
best of all middleweights. Jack has
had oodles and oodles of fights with
alleged heavyweights and has taken
their measure with some ease. In ad
dition he has clashed with one or two
real good boys, so-called, and has man
aged to escape without annihilation.
Dempsey’s latest stunt was to polish
off Homer Smith, a mid-western gent
of the ring, and hq did it in the first
round of what had been scheduled to
be a whole evening's entertainment.
He made a tremendous hit with his
work and immediately they began say
ing that here was the man who should
meet Fulton and really prove whether
or not the Minnesotan is the lad to
meet big jess.
In the course of his battling Demp
sey has defeated A1 Norton, a veteran
of the ring; Bob McAlister, Charley
| Miller, George Christian, Carl Morris, j
Gunboat Smith. Willie Meehan, twice;
and Homer Smith. He also has met
Andre Anderson and Battling Jim
Johnson, going ten rounds with each
ot these accredited beef exhibits with
out danger to himself.
Dempsey’s experience would be*
against him in a scrap with either Ful
ton or Willard. Fulton, despite criti
cisms, is the best heavyweight in the j
country, with the possible exception of
the champion himself. If Dempsey is
i
id enough to defeat Fulton he’s cer- |
nly good enough for a bust at Wll- ’
d.
After Moran and Fulton pull off
ilr muss down New Orleans way It '
11 be time enough to talk about a1
■mpsey-Fulton bout, for Moran, de
spit as he is, is just the man to put
knockout over on Fulton should one
his wild swings.land by chance.

Eastern College Athletics
(By Associated Press)
NEW YORK, Feb. 19 —Opinions j
nong followers of Eastern college ]
hletics appear to indicate radical j
langes in intercollegiate contests i
ter the wrar. lip to the present time
ere has been no concrete suggestion
■ plan offered incorporating the ideas i
ider discussion, but it is considered
kely that there will be rapid prog
iss in this direction once the agita
on reaches a plane above idealistic
ropaganda. Notwithstanding the at
tude of a certain faction to the con- j
ary, it is generally conceded that
iter-varsity competition is the stimn
is necessary to lift participation in
tercise and sport above the level of
aily routine.
Just how to accomplish this, while
Iving opportunity for participation in
lese games to hundreds of students
lHieuu ui lu a tuunrou ten .
r experts, is the problem which must k“
e mastered by those who are advo- I
ating the change. That much of the |
nnecessary and unscholastic glamor
•ill be stripped from such intercol
jgiate contests appears inevitable, but
eyond the point suggested action
lerges into discussion. But one sug
;estion looking toward readjustment
a a prominent Eastern intercollegiate
port has been advanced to date.
This is the proposal to supersede the
ntercolleglate championship regatta
vith a series of short dual boat races
n which each college crew would meet |
>ach rival in turn during the spring .
■owing season. Just how this would
increase, to any extent, the number of
oarsmen, how competing is not made
clear. Providing that a given college
crew was to row even a one-mile rare
against a rival eight each Saturday
during May and June, as football elev
ens play contests in the aucuivm, it. is
likely that the coach, once he had
seated a satisfactory and winning com
bination in the shell, would send about
the same eight to the line each week
end.
That there is need of greater par
ticipation in sport exercise and train
ing by the average student is pointed
out by no less an authority than Dr.'
Dudley A. Sargent, director of Hemen
way gymnasium. Harvard university.
Dr. Sargent, in a recent article in the
Harvard Alumni Bulletin, states in
part:
rresumumj me siuaems who enter
Harvard come to prepare themselves
physically as well as mentally and mor
ally for life's great game. Recent ex
aminations have shown that from 25
per cent to 50 per cent of our young
1 men are physically unprepared for
military service. History shows us
that gymnastics and athletics were
originally practiced for the purpose of
preparing men for war. Gymnastics
furnished the preliminary training;
athletics afforded the opportunity for
competition.
“In view' of the conditions confront
ing us as a people, would it not be a
wiser plan so to conduct our athletics
as not only to select the fit and elimi
nate the unfit from the major contests
which are the basis of the present
system, of which 1 approve as far as
it goes, but so to modify, supplement
and conduct those or other athletic
contests as to encourage the unfit to
continue their practice and try and
make themselves more fit for the du
ties of a citizen and a possible sol
dier?
“The one great difficulty that is con
tinually operating against such a modi
fication of our present-day method is
the high standard demanded by the
candidates of our major athletic
sports. In my opinion, any game or
sport that has become so highly or
ganized as to require a special apti
tude or ability on the part of every
player who would engage in it has
ceased to be of practical service in a
democratic community, except as a
source of occasional entertainment and
amusement.
“It is almost impossible to keep up
any interest in a highly specialized
game after leaving college, for the sim- -
pie reason that not enough skilled -
players can be found to form a team,
it is largely on account of the sim

IDAHO DEFENSE COUNCIL
WANTS ALL WEN TD WORK
(By Associated Press)
BOISE, Idaho, Feb. 19—“When the
nation is at war, no man's time is his
own. It belongs to the government."
With this statement the Idaho state
council of defense has appealed to the
people of the state to see that the
loafers an4 idlers, rich as well as poor,
be put to some useful employment.
“If there is no state law to reach
this class which is not contributing
do the nation’s needs, the first act of
the legislature, in the event that it is
called into special session, should be
to place one on the statute books,"
says a statement issued by the council.
It recommends that the municipali
ties pass ordinances to meet the situ
ation until the legislature can act, and
that a census of the idle men in the
state be taken at once.
