^HIl AGO. -Ian. 4.—Field
>ng H. A'nst, for 24
jOT years a famous grhl
“ ■ iron roarli at the
I'nlverslty of Mich
igan, taking inven
tory tonight of the
intercollegiate ath
letic situation of the
nation, sounded a
warning against
post-season intersec
tional games, voiced
his objections to
athletic profession
alism, and declared
that not more than
four football games
a season should he scheduled that
would require the players to be keyed
to the highest pilch, mentally and
phy steady.
lost, the Wolverine's director of
athletics, sets forth his views iti no
article on the "administration of inter
collegiate and intersoholastie games.”
Briefly, file veteran coaelv says that
sport is good only as sport; that when
It Interferes with studies, evil results
are likely to follow. If Intersectional
games are to be played at all, they
should be scheduled for tho regular
season so as not to prolong the train
ing season of the players, he believes.
Tn all events, the gridiron season
should close by Thanksgiving .time
and there should not be mote than
eight regular games on any schedule,
5'ost counsel'.
"No boy should ever be permitted
to absent himself from any class for
athletlo purposes," Yost writes. "Thl«
defeats the purpose of hot It class room
and athletics. Practice periods must
be arranged in conjunction with class
room schedules and ad conflicts avotd
ed.”
Vest opposes the idea of post-season
games because lie says they establish
a had precedent and any attempt to
determine a national championship is
Wrong because thebe are too many
good teams in the country lo consider
such an attempt.
"In general, Interscctional g’ames
that require much time away from
classes are unwise," Yost says, "if
played at all, they should be sched
uled for the regular season so as not
to prolong the training period.”
* “There are too many good teams in
the country today to attempt to de
termine any so-called national oham
plonshlp, and it makes no difference
anyway. Post-season games are us
ually planned to bring two outstand
ing teams together but they do not
tlete'tnine a lathing of value ami serve
po useful purpose.”
Yost, wholeheartedly opposed to
pto^vyjohaiisni In football, says all
oolite athletics should be based on
th1 principle of "play for play's sake,"
and the influence of athletic profes
sionalism makes youths dissatisfied
to play the game for its own sake
and lend* them to regard athletic
prowess as a marketable commodity,'
destroying the real purpose of tli-|
letks.
Tech Prepares
for North Hi<rhi
o i
With the first game of the season
scheduled for this week. Coach Drum
mond of Tech has begun to Intensify
the drill for his squad in preparation
for the Friday mix with Coach Jack
son's Northerners. Although Tech is
expected to win handily, ttie Tech ex
hlb tion against the Townsends last
week was none too assuring.
The Maroon and White quintet this
year is rather a debatable quantity.!
On paper, It would seem that the five
would *>e able to show any team In
the state a haul battle, but such pre
dictions are valueless In considering a
Tech team for the simple reason that
teams from the Cuming street school
seem to run contrary to preseason pre
dictions.
The gae with North cornea Friday
afternoon at Iho Tech gym at 3:4".,
It. will be the first contest of tiie sea
son for both teams.
JOHNSON GIVES
HUMILITY LESSON
San Francisco, Jan. 4.—Walter
Johnson, star that he Is, haa a far
different makeup from that of Babe
Ruth.
Ruth demanded and recelted as
high as $2,500 a game for some of
the games In which lie participated on
the coast. For the three-game aeries
In San Francisco, Ruth was paid the
lump sum of $0,500.
When the Oakland bail players dr
elded they wanted to stage aicexliibt
tion before the lid went on, they
wired Johnson asking his heat terms.
"I'll not only corne, but I'll take
a chance with the other plas'ers. Give
me a cut along with the hoys.”
That was the message from John
son.
He came, and the rainy weather
knocked a prospective crowd for a
row of goals. There wasn't much
"sugar'’ for the hall players to di
vide. Tet Johnson, who Is no prtma
donna, went through with Ids agree
ment and pitched five Innings.

Holland Settle* Hot Dispute
by Selecting French Town

t»ames.
Uiorliilfd Freni,
\RIS, Jan. 3.—Follow
negotiation* between
the Dutch and
French Olympic com
inittee during the
past two month* it
ha* been virtually de
rided that the winter
sport* of the 1018

'J The choice of the
* Dutch Olympic com
mittee of t hamonlv,
which wa* the scene
of 4h« 1924 winter
sport*. end* th*
controversy hetween
tii* s<andiiiavian countrie* and
Switzerland which had reached an
acute stage owing to the effort* of
these nation* to persuade Holland—
which I* unable to hold winter game*
beranse of the lack of ice and snow
to turn liver the winter part of the
1928 Olympic program to them.
When the winter sports wer* p!*c
e>1 upon th"' Olympic program in 1920,
the International Olympic committee
ruled that if a nAUbn entrusted with
ihe task of orgat™ng the Olympic
games, found itself, owing to gee,gra
phical uud climatic difficulties, unable
to hold the Ice and snow programs,
that part of the program could be
turned over to another nation.
While Holland I* firmly determin
ed lo i airy out it* assignment for
the organisation of the Olympic
track and field sports at Amsterdam
in 1928. the Dutch fMympic com
mittee realized that the winter pari
of the |>rograiti could not be hand
led in that country. Consequently,
t haiiuiniv was looked upon as the
most feasible site for the ice ami
snow sport', owing In the fact that
(lie games were held there in 1921
and no new installation* will be
ne< essary .
The French Olympic comnnt:e* has
received assurance* from AmsterdAm
11 hat if a request I* mad* to the
Hutch committee that the 1925 games
i•* held at Chamonix, no objections
ill lie made. Tb* official application
from France will go forward to the]
Hutch committee tonight.
The French ministry of foreign af
i fairs and Premier Herriot. upon be
in* consulted by- the French Olympic
■-ommittee authorized this committee
to undertake the organization of the
1*25 winter sp- rta at Chamon-i snd
promised to do everything possible
to aid in the task.

Ifrake Bulldogs
of lies Moines,

gym Saturday
night.
Brake tieyfr had a chance.
\fterr taptain- Johnny Trautman
dropped a slithering spheroid through
the lionp in the first half moment of
play, from the side of the roue!, and
Mahoney and Brown followed in
breathtaking rapidity, from within
the foul line, the wind sloughed out
of the Bulldog sails.
Tet, characteriBtle of the bulldog,
Drake fought on. They were battling^
all the time, but their efforts might
as well ha\e been expended upon a
stone wall, for Creighton was rig- '
last night.
The Blueja; s pecked and clawed s’
the Bulldogs from opening whlsti* to
final gun. and although teamwpr
wae sometime? conspicuous by its
absence in the ''reighton mode of a1
tack, the Schabiriger coached quint
caged the leather from all angle*,

Brown a dimlnutlvw cage- from
Council Bluffs, who scored triurrp *
with the Abraham Lincoln Hie i
school quintet, was sent Into tt*
game In place of Ryan, a veteran and
lenerman.
The crowd was buzzing with oon
jectures as to how- Brown would fare
, «tartlng hi? first game of unheo ■
basket ball, and some in the crowd
pointed out his evident nervousness
before Referee Hargiss' whistle open
ed the game.
But the doubtful ones soon turned
to cheering one? as this lithe litt'e
brown-eyed eager began to toss the
lea-li-r. into the hoop.
He was "hot" last night. He led
the entire field in the scoring
column with 16 field goals to hi*
rredit, one more than was scored
by t aptain Johnny Trautman.
