to "toar things up" and now tho con

Lifting the Ban.
Fresh impptus has been gjven to the
movoment to lift tho ban from tho
"summer baseball' player by tho re-
markablo confession of tho men who
constituted tho University of Iowa nine
and tho declaration of Physical Direc
tor Young of Cornell. Tho Iowa men,
realizing that thoir playing on a uni
versity team would bo in direct viola
tion of tho amateur code, woro manly
enough to confess their professional
ism. In making thoir admission they
declared their firm belief that thero 1b
hardly a collogo playor of ability in
this country who is a bona ildo ama
teur. Thoso who Jtnow anything about
tho real situation do not need the
chargo of tho Iowa men to prove its
truth.
Following this public confession of
tho Iowa playors, Mr. Young of Cor
nell, a famous athlete himself, comes
out in dofonso of tho "summer nino"
player, even if ho is paid for his ser
vices. Although Mr. Young does not
represent tho official attitude of Cor
nell, ho Is not alono in his contention
that tho good of college athlotics would
bo served by abolishing the present re
strictions. At both Harvard and tho
University of Pennsylvania thero are
men high in authority who believe
that tho rules promote deception und
lying among tho very men thoy want
to help. Thero is no doubt that the
official sontimont on this poinl is crys
tallzlng and that in favor of the player.
Woro it not for tho precedent it would
sot for athletes in the other branches
of collogo sport there is no doubt that
tho authorities would bo willing to re
movo tho restrictions without delay.
But if professionals we're to be allowed
on tho basoball teams, what would
ihcro bo to Mndor their wholesalo
competition on other teams? This is a
.yory Important matter and is really
deserving of an Intercollegiate confer
ence, lo Insuro its prompt and proper
settlement.1 Illustrated Outdoor News.

' There has boon considerable com
ment lately in regard toHho promiscu
ous way in which students loave
chairs turned up in tho general library.
It is not an uncommon thing to. sea
a chair vacated all aftor noon, yet
turned up at tho desk denying any
ono "the privilege of its use. Sinco
tho library is not largo enough, as it
is, to accommodato all 'those -who wish
tq study, two suggest that thfl students
w'ho liYQ been aqcustoraod. to turn
of tho General -Staff, to tho effect that
ho would-lnspcct the University cadets
and equipment during tho early part
of ' April. Tho cadets have always
stood high in overy respect, and noth
