Mine Students on Strike
All the students of the Colorado
School of Mines have gone on a strike
and left school, except the seniors.
j The strike is unsettled, and concilia
J tion seems to be hopeless between the
students and faculty. Many of the
Mine men have gone to Tucson, Ariz.,
to complete their work in the Arizona
School -of Mines. Many of the others
have entered the officers' training
camp, have gone to work, at summer
jobs, or have tried to get admitted
into the University of Colorado. The
University of Colorado will not admit
any of the strikers. This action on
the part of the Mine students may
mean the end of a separate School of
Mines. Ex.

ports of the cadets who went on the
encampment, they will take military
training as seriously as they can from
now on. The men especially enjoyed
the ankle-deep mud on the training
grounds, and at night the rain made
tents very comfortable. The scores
on the range shooting were very
erratic, varying from eight to sixty

Jimmy Callahan of Pirates Declares It
Would Be Unfair to Legislate
Againit Moist Delivery at
This Late Date.
The spitball will be hurled at the
batters again this season by pitchers
all over the country.
It will continue on Ita moist and
foggy way despite the efforts of some
baseball reformers to legislate It out
of the pastime, for the spltter htt be
come Just as much a part of the pitch
er's art as the curve.
During the hot-stove season, which
came to a close with the departure for
the South, the spltter came In for Its
annual panning. Baseball men In vari
ous parts of the country talked agalust
It. Chief among the pnnsters was Percy
D. Haughtou of the Boston Bruves.
who believes the elimination of the
spltter would be a long stop toward
Increasing hitting.
Hn ugh toil put the spltter on tin
pan every time he got a chttnce, and
Is henest In his convictions against
It. But the members of the rules
committee did not even discuss the
spltter lu a casual way. The rules
committee found practically nothing
to do, for the rules as they stand
today are Just about as solid as they
can be made.
In discussing the spltbnll at one
of the National league sessions last
winter, Jimmy Calluhan of the Pi
rates, advanced the opinion that It
would be unfair to legislate against
it now. Callahan believes that the
moist delivery has been In vogue
too long. He pointed out that It has
been In use ot least ten years, and
that If it had been particularly un
desirable it should have been eiimi-

nated before hundreds of pitchers
had studied it and mastered its use.
The emery ball was short-lived in the
major leagues. Action against It was
quick and when It was made Illegal
there was no great hardship worked
on the pitchers.
With the spltter It Is different. Hun
dreds of younger pitchers who are
coming' up have adopted the spltter
for use In the tight places. It Is used
by nt least 40 per cent of the pitchers
of the country today and It has be
come an Institution. So the spltter
will live for some time to come and
may never be barred.
The fact that many baseball men
do not champion the moist ball will
make no difference, and, as Jimmy
Calluhan declares. It would be un in
justice because Its use has been per
mitted for too many years.
BASEBALL IN SOUTH AMERICA
Many Promising Players Found Among
Expert Workmen Secured for Cul
tivation of Sugar.
The Europenn war may be responsi
ble for Introducing baseball Into South
America. The centuries of South
America whone soil is adapted to the
cultivation of sugar are sending to
Cuba for expert workmen In that
branch of Industry, and aa a result
baseball promises to be as well known
In Latin-America as It Is In the West
Indies. The Cubans have taken to the
game like a duck to water, and there
are numberless teams scattered all
over the Island. It Is not improbable
that In the future the championship of
America will not be settled until the
northern and southern hemispheres
have battlf d on the diamond.
The South Americans are a sport
loving people, and one the fascinating
game of baseball fastens Itself on
them there should be a wave of en
thusiasm all over that continent Am
soon aa the South Americans under
stand the sport the turnstiles at the
hull fishta will not be very busy.

TH languorous charm of the
Hawaiian native instruments so
moving in appeal, so observably
in vogue is strikingly characteristic
of the Ukulele. Its tone possesses that
curiously beautiful timbre, that exotic
charm of tonal quality which has
made these instruments so sensation

The Ukulele has a pleasing grace of
form. The finer models are made
of genuine Hawaiian Koa wood. It
is much in request today among the
smarter college and other musical
organizations.
It is easy to learn. Its price includes aa
