Il$M.Thts spring We henrd n let nbeut the fact that the gran' ole game Is losing

fi fi!:.ahthiiiiiiitif nn It hhpiI te be in the reed old days of a decade or se back.
i? .""? But Is the game lestng its personality or merely changing te ft new type?
..True, the players who used te furnish the most interesting eus 01 gossip ier
the "Steve Leaguers" have almost entirely disappeared nnd new ones rarely
put In nn appearance. That can be explained readily enough. Whenever a
youngster peps his dome above the horizon nnd shows inclinations toward
taking the bit in his teeth nnd running'' nwny with things lie is promptly and
properly squelched nnd shunted back te resume his active membership in the
Alfalfa Heuvcrs' Union, where the monthly pay check means a chance te
.bust loose nnd scrub the hoese-gow nfterwnrd.
Probably some of the plcturcMue side of baseball wn listed among the
missing when entries like Waddell, "Rugs" Raymond, Schreckengest, Nick
"Altrock, "Germany" fohnefer nnd ethers of that spectacular group tnsscd out
f the picture, but n new type of personality has entered. Ty Cobb broke the
Ice for the new crew'd nnd has been followed by n let of efficiency machines

s Instead of merely scintillating en rare occasions. They have raised the
$' standard of stardom In baseball. A man like Waddell could go out and pitch
game of ball that was wonderful once In a while when the spirit happened
te move him te it or he was in condition. A man like Mntlieven. who cer

PROBE STARTED CHRISTMAS
THERE may be sporadic outbursts from a feie temperamental
prima donnas like the bunch that are addinij the gray boys tu the
thatch of Miller Huggins fictc days, but tiny can net last. Hip
league baseball is a fast-stepping preposition today and the pay check

h ujr, the trade was rather lopsided, with nil of the ndvnntage going te the
Braves. Xew the Reds have expressed n desire te cancel the deal, stating
11 that Scott has a bad arm and was spurious when traded.
jjJ This is something for Judge l.andls te decide, for Garry Herrmann is
;! collecting evidence te place before btezenner In the hopes of getting back
aj his players.
,!; Te us if leeks as if the new inficlders, PlnelH nnd Caveney, have net per
is! formed up te the major league standard and Larry Kepf is needed in the
fa thert field. A big mistake was made when Kepf was thrown in for geed
H measure, for Larry is n clnssy shortstop and virtually has made the Braves'
Q Infield. He is needed In Bosten the same ns in Cincinnati, and there will be

American Association In Shape for
Big Year
Clilrage, April 1i. The American
Association is looking forward te one
of the best seasons in Its history,
Themas J. Hickey, president of the
league, said tedny nt the opening of
tlie season. ,
"Our circuit enjoyed geed seasons In

OXLT four of the eighteen nthleten
declared Ineligible nt Princeton were
bnrred from future competition en the
teams for receiving unauthorized finan
cial aid.
Thl develops today from the news
story of the affair In the Dally Prince Prince
tenlan, the official student paper.
Of the eighteen athletes "beheaded"
Denn Heward McClcnahan declared
"most of them were declared lnclliglblc
because of scholastic fallurc.5"
The Princeton news story asserts that
the standing of nine athletes was in
vestigated because they accepted finan
cial assistance of a character te violate
the Tnle-Harvard-Prlnceten agreement
of 1010.
Of these nine athletes four were ex
onerated and the case of one wns held
ever. The ether four were declared
ineligible. Due te the "soft-pedal"
put en the affair by the authorities, the
first impression spread en the campus nf
Princeton wns that nil the eighteen ath
letes were barred because of accepting
unauthorized aid.
Fourth Unknown
Of the four athletes in the latter class
three ere Tiger captains GUrey, foot
ball; Wltmer. basketball, and Mc
Namar, baseball. The fourth name has
net yet come te light.
It also develops In the Prlncctenlan
version of the affair that the Invest!
j gatlen started as long nge ns Christmas,
wnen ir. Decame Known tnnt certain
Tiger athletes were receiving assistance
from what is known an a "lean fund."
This fund was established by Inter
ested Princeton alumni and was "ad
ministered without the knowledge or
approval of the university administra
tion." Its purpose was te lend finan
cial assistance te such needy students
whose activities were a credit te Princeton.

IX EIGHT CITIES in the East and Middle West-.inajer leagues nnfeldj,,
1022 baseball season today. Advance report! indicate the confidence tit
nubile still places In the game.
Daseball has recovered the black smear that way placed en its fair nitni
during the World's Series of 1910, and its popularity is em increasing. The
game is tee big te be burled by the, acta of a few unscrupnleua Indirlduals.
Heccntlv 32.000 persons saw the game between the Cards, and the Browne
In St. Leuis'. They played te the largest crowd that em attended a ball Ma,
in the Missouri city. This wns due te the fact that both cluba are expected w
be pennant contenders, but the same line of reasoning can net be applied te our
Phils nnd A's, yet 10,000 were en hand te see the tailenders en exhibition lut
Saturday. . . f .
The club owners can leek forward te a snceesarel financial season. The fan,
are "raring te go," and they will storm the gates of enrj ball park. But tbi
won't be "raring" during the entire campalfn unleea they get geed baseball It
return for their money.
Philadelphia is a geed baseball town. Lecal fans den t demand champion;
ship clubs, but they de demand something better than last-place teams. Miner
leegue baseball in major league uniform has been inflicted en our city tee loot
If cither the Phils or the A's reach sixth or serenth place, Philadelphia irli
celebrate as it would for a championship club, and this is the same city whem
league titles and World's Serles'trlumphs were common less than ten years ite
Sectional Qualifying System In Open Gelf
THE new conditions decided en te qualify for the medal play proper in tit
open golf championship of the United States is one way out. The netr
method provides that the field be split in three divisions, a third te play Mendij
at thirty-six holes, the best twenty-four qualifying; a third te play the nut
day the same way nnd another third te play -en Wednesday. The seventy-two
survivors will then compete ever seventy-two holes for the championship.
This method Is satisfactory te the U. S. O. A. and the P. O. A. efficlalj.
That is it is satisfactory today. Tomorrow there may be another story. Li
year the field was split in half instead of thirds and the play was ever enl;
ilffhtiin hnles. There was a loud holler.
The main objection te the new system which will betried out this yr
seems te be the time involved. The man who is drawn feT Monday and quill.
fies must cool his heels two whole days before be plunges Inte the cbampieaihip
piny. The man drawn for Wednesday won't be able te practice en the count
the two preceding days because it will be check-full of thirty-six-hole reundi.
The only real solution, many believe,' is the sectional qualifying Byitta.
Qualify nt home is their motto.
Lecal Semi -Pre Association Shows Iti Hand
SEMI-PROFESSIONAL baseball players in this city will seen learn that
the newly organized association Is net a neighborhood social.
The association is te be complimented en the firm atand shown In tit
ceses of two athletes who had signed with different clubs. In this case each
offending player was fined .$25.
It is difficult te Invoke spirit in semi-professional ranks, and the enlj
way te discipline the athletes is through their pocketbooks. Harry Selbeld ml
Charles Oleck are net likely te repent the offense.
There is plenty of room here for geed twilight baseball. The game will li
well supported, but It wns npparent lest year that the semi-pre teams netM
some central body te control the players, arrange for the umpires and attend
(e the many ether details that come under the bead of organization.
One of the drawbacks in the pnst has been the many roles played by tit
athletes. The fans would find u pitcher, for Instance, who hurled for the hone
club two days age, twirling for the opposition today. Such a condition deti
net make for club spirit or neighborhood spirit.

Although there are thousands of men's and young

cheesing of ten.
First in Assortment
First in Style
First in Value
as well as first in Philadelphia.
