10 EFFICIENT COACHING IS BIG FACTOR IN TECH HIGH TRACK TEAM VICTORIES—SPORTS YALE TO DROP GRID SCHEDULE Plan Other Reforms; Only One Winner Left; to Can cel All Fall Sports New Haven. Conn., June 19.—Yale's athletic council will hold at least one meeting during the commence ment week program, which begins to morrow and lasts four days, to wres tle with two of the most important problems it has tackled —first, wheth er there shall be sports next fall when the college year opens; second. In what form athletics will be re sumed at the close of the war. or when it is decided to again start the ball of sports rolling. Some rather informal athletic events will be arranged and some of the un dergraduates and alumni are eager to have Yale, Harvard and Princeton plan for their usual annual games, agreeing to play them with only a limited period of practice daily, and without the varsity players who have nearly all gone to the military service of their country from all three uni versities. Members of the council, however, are skeptical of their ability to arrange any outside matches this fall. l*lan Reform They feel, however, that the pres ent is an ideal time to plan for nu merous reforms in athletics which they have recommended for some time. A committee the council a year ago urged in an elaborate report, curtailing of many of the extrava gant features of athletics, including .4he high priced coaches and the large coaching staffs, and making the divi sion between amateur and profes sional athletics more marked. The sessions of the council the coming week will continue the inves tigation into this branch of college athletic improvement. When athlet ics are finally resumed it is certain that they will be carried on under greatly altered conditions. Harvard, Princeton and Yale are conducting their Investigations together into the reform and are in close accord on the details of the changes which they regard desirable. Oue Winner Remain* A census has just been taken at Yale of the athletes who were on the various sports teams when the war broke out. and only a single winner of the "Y" has been found to remain in college. He will enlist as soon as college closes its school year the coming week. If athletics are re sumed in any form next fall, it will be with no varsity athletes whatever available for the teams and with only the briefest amount of time allotted daily for practice, because of the de mands upon the undergraduates for military training and for their study. President Tener Tells Umps to Wipe Out Rowdies New York, June 19.—President John K. Tener of the National League was just beginning to enjoy the im pression that his umpires were keep ing the players well in hand, when his dream of peace on the diamonds in his league was rudely shattered at the Polo Grounds. Player Fltzpat rick, of the Braves, was the principal disturber in an altercation with Um pire Quigley, and was later fined SSO and suspended indefinitely. Following the trouble, Governor Tener issued a new set of laws to his arbiters. He told them to stamp out the troublemakers at the first sign of an butbreak, and hereafter the squawkers will be banished when they get rough if the governor's or ders are carried out. Banishing play ers often works a hardship on a ball club, and as a rule the arbiters are as lenient as possible. But when play ers become unruly there is only one thing for the umpire to do, and that is to hang the ancient order of tin on him. In cases of this kind the man agers are partly to blame. They should warn their players against kicking beyond a reasonable limit.

ILS Kee vo^n eep I COACHES BIG PART IN TECH VICTORIES; POPULAR OFFICIALS GEORGE W. HILL. JAMES C. PEET. Many followers of sport can well remember the time a few years ago when Tech first entered the big meets on the Island and felt lucky to come back with one bronze medal. Since then the Maroon athletes have gotten into bigger ways, and the student body never feels satisfied with anything short of first place and the championship. Tech's consistent winnings of tne last four years can be traced di rectly to the good work done by Coaches James C. Peet and George W. Hill, both of whom are members of the Tech faculty, and who coach the track candidates every spring. For four straight years Tech has had a claim to the championship honors, but never before has the claim been backed by so many big victories as this season. Experienced Coaches Coach Peet is a graduate of Syracuse University, and while a student at the New York school won honors as a member of the track team. Coach Hill graduated from Gettysburg College, and was a member of the Steel ton Y. M. C. A. football eleven. Later he joined the Harrisburg basket ball association and played a guard position on the quintet. In 1914 Tech began to set a whirlwind pace, and has continued to do so ever since. During that season it won the relay race at Philadelphia, won at Penn State, Mercersburg, defeated Central, won on the Island and defeated the Gettysburg freshmen. Since that time only three meets have been lost. The trophy room at the Maroon institution is filled with cups and banners that have been brought home through the good work of the two teacher-coaches. Both men are popular with the track candidates, and the latter are unstinted in their praise of the directors of this work. GOOD THING THIS PLAYER DOES NOT USE REAL NAME; GIVES REGISTRARS SHOCK Philadelphia, June 19.—When Pitch er Rube Schauer of the Athletics reg istered under the army draft act he gave the registrars a shock when in answer to the question as to his full name he twisted his tongue several ways so that the registrar had to abandon the idea of writing it himself and gave the pen over to Schauer. Rube then wrote: "Dimitri Ivjnno vitch Dimitrihoff." For that is Schauer's real name. Rube was born in Odessa, Russia, and came to this country when a child. He and Jake Gettman. formerly big league out fielder, are the only Russians, real Russians by birth, who have ever PITCHES PERFECT GAME Birmingham, Ala., June 19. —Ben Tincup, the former Phillie pitcher, ' working on the hill for Little Rock against Birmingham yesterday, in a Southern Association game, blanked the locals without a hit or a run in a nine-inning game. Score, 3 to 0. It was a perfect game, not a man reaching first base on the Indian. Tincup has been pitching great bail for Little Rock all season. TUESDAY EVENING, fought their way up to a big league job. Started When a Boy In Russia there is no baseball and | Schauer did not have the advantage of i playing ball until he was 12 years ! old. The American boy begins to toss and bat a bill when he is five and six.

With John McGraw watching hap penings from the shelter of a grand stand, Lew McCarty out of the pas time, Charles Herzog weighted down with the care of managership in ad dition to a wounded back, and a pitch ing staff ready to crack when the strain of double-headers begins to get heated, the Giants look woeful In comparison with the high-rated ma chine that started out to cog wheel Its way to a nag. Juggernautlng took a decided sloop when 1 John K. Tener suspended and fined McGraw. It was the blow that will count most If the Giants are eased lnto # some position other than first wheit the season is over. Never powerful this year in the region of the pitcher's box, the Giants are suffering there more than ever. Schupp has not shown overly mucn in recent starts, despite the fact that his string of victories remains un broken. The antic of Poll Perrltt In Pittsburgh when he blocked the Pi rates from scoring should be heart ening, but he Is the only real able as sistance on the face of present re turns who is ready to lend mucb help, PHILLIES LAND STAR TWIRLER "Wildfire" Schulte Is Product of New York State League Philadelphia, June 19.—The Phil lies' famous "wrecking crew" of Lu derus and Cravath has been augment ed by the addition of Frank "Wild fire" Schulte, well known for his long-distance clouting during the halcyon days of Frank Chance's worid beating Cubs, the veteran coming to the local team yesterday when Man ager Pat Moran Claimed him from Pittsburgh at the waiver price. The Pirates got him last year in a Gt'.il with the Cubs, handing over Catcher Arthur Wilson for Schulte and Catch er Bill Fischer. Schulte is by no means a young man. having reached the high-water mark of his baseball career as far back as 1911 when he established a National League record for home runs with twenty-one circuit wallops to his credit. After this achievement Schulte was hailed as the wonder of the age. Buck Freeman's long-stand ing mark of twenty-five homers being the only barrier between himself and the major league record. Since that time, however, Gavvy Cravath, the Phil's human shrapnel, has battered' these figures, getting twenty-four Pat Moran's pennant winning drive of 1915.

Two years later he elevated himself to the Syracuse New York State League aggregation, with whom he pastimed until late In August, 1906, when the Cubs took a liking to his general style of play and purchased him. He remained in Chi cago until the Pirates secured his services last year. The Phils' new acquisition will be thirty-five next birthday, stands five feet nine and one-half inches and tips the beam at 170 pounds. He may or may not prove a valuable asset to the Phillies in their pennant fight this year for thus far he has set neither the world nor the National League on fire with his batting. He has located the offerings of opposing pitchers for the modest average of .216 in the games played to date, but should he succeed in getting a line on the exaci longitude and latitude of the Phils' right field wall in the heat of any of the championship battles it is unlike ly that Pat Moran will sever diplo matic relations with the Cubs' old star for some time to come.
