East asd Weit.
BREAK IN THE WEST IS NOT SETTLED FACT
Michigan Apparently Still on the
Pence and Yale and Fennsyl
aylvanla Nut Drawing To
Tether In Foot Ball.
In spite of the pledge that Michigan will
quit the Western conference, having been
admitted to the Intercollegiate Amateur
Athletic Association of America, It al
most certain that the situation U not
cleared up by a great deal. At the time of
the recent meeting of the Eastern associa
tion the manager of the Michigan track
team gave It to be understood that as soon
as the Wolverines were admitted to the as
sociation they would withdraw from the
conference. Whether that was Just his own
Idea or whether It was something that the
Michigan students had decided upon was
not mude clear.
Now it appears that a secondary oppo
sition to the withdrawal of Michigan from
the conference has come to be of greater
Importance than it was first held to be.
The Michigan student paper has expressed
Itself as strongly against leaving the con
ference, possibly with an eye out to the
base ball and foot ball schedules of future
seasons.
The whole situation Is a bit involved.
The regents and the student paper are
saying that the Michigan students want to
tay in tha conference. The students, on
the other hand, have been signing by thou
sands literally the petition which is going
around Ann Arbor, to take Michigan out of
the conference. There are now about 3.600
names on that petition, which will go to
the regents or to the senate, whichever
has control of the situation at the time
when the petition Is ready.
If It should actually result that Michigan
derides not to leave the conference, there
will be some trouble for the westerners
here with the Intercollegiate Amateur Ath
letic Association of America. In the an
nual meeting Henry Fletcher, the Michigan
emissary, pledged himself and his college
to support the eastern meeetlngs from that
point on faithfully. Either Michigan will
have to keep to that pledge or else will be
barred out of the Intercollegiate associa
tion, with small chance ever of being ad
mitted a third time to membership.
The latter is a condition that was Inti
mated as possible by the Cornell delegate
to the intercollegiate meeting. He appar
ently had little faith In the sincerity of
Michigan In applying for membership
again. His idea was, that Michigan hav
ing a strong track team and being dis
gruntled with conditions at home, was
eager to draw out there and como on to
show the westerners what a really good
western college could do In the east.
In opposing Michigan the Cornell dele
gate said merely that he was opposed to
letting the Wolverines back in without the
"customary" two years of waiting after
the first application. From what ha said
then and from what has been said subse
quently by Cornelllans It appears that they
have the Idea that there Is a specific rule
governing the application of a college once
dropped from the association which requires
It to wait for a year after the original
application before being eligible to be
taken up again. This Is not to be found

MATTHEWS 'SSS

16th and Douglas Sts.
in the handbook of the Intercollegiate
Amateur Athletic Association of America.
All that is mentioned there is that a col
lege desiring to become a member of the
association must mako application to the
secretary In writing at the time of the
annual meeting. That is absolutely the
only condition mentioned. The Cornell del
egate hnd the Idea that there was a special
rule for debarred colleges and mentioned it
several times without any one setting him
right in the meeting.
Since the meeting nnd the admission of
Michigan there has been Issued a state
ment from Cornell which comes from a
source practically official. In an endeavor
to clear up Cornell's apparent hostility to
Michigan It is pointed out that when Cor
nell and Michigan used to have their in
door dunl meets, Cornell often had to put
up with things that were not strictly sports
manlike on the part of the Michigan track
athletic authorities.
These things were not mentioned spe
cifically, but the general idea presented
was that Michigan, once having been guilty
of such acts, never had reformed and that
therefore it was better for the intercol
legiate association to have no traffic with
the Wolverines. Opposed to that is the
statement made by Fletcher at the meet
ing that Michigan would gladly submit to
any conditions named by the Intercollegiate
Amateur Athletic Association of America
in order to be returned to membership.
In line with the talk about the meeting
of the intercollegiate association there has
been discussion of the new rule of the
organization, which gives the executive
committee power by a unanimous vote to
bar from competition any athlete already
entered In the championships or to reject
the entry of any athlete considered unfit.
This is a broad and sweeping rule and
gives great powers to the association. It
was suggested at the time that the rule
was passed that the executive committee
got too much power from it.
It was agreed, however, that any such
cases as might come under that ruling
would be heard carefully at hearings subse
quent to the announcement of the barring
of any athlete. There is behind the execu
tive, committee and the advisory committee
a sort of faculty arbitration committee, a
court of last resort. This Is made up of
men representing the colleges which fin
ished one, two, three, four, five in the point
competition at the championships preced
ing the Intercollegiate games. It is sup
posed that this board has the right to re
view any findings of the association's com
mittees of whatsoever kind.
The championship meeting having been
awarded to Cambridge for the coming year,
puts at rest an unpleasant argument. The
margin by which Harvard won out was
very slight, the vote being 9 to 7. This was
about the same idea as that in the execu
tive committee meeting, where Cornell,
Yale and Harvard voted for Cambridge
and Princeton and Pennsylvania for
Franklin field. It la very clear that there
is decided opposition to Harvard, and the
great chances are that another year the
meeting will not go to Cambridge, es
pecially if the weather this year U not
good.
If the argument between Cambridge and
Philadelphia becomes more pointed it also
la mora or less certain that the meeting
will be sent to some other field than among
thee two. The association is waiting for
Columbia, in order to get a field here In
New York for the games. The College of
the City of New York was going to have
one in time for the championships this
year, but that apparently inUaed lire. It la
up to Columbia, apparently, if there Is to
be a field here fur the games.
The stadium project, which was set forth
at great length a year or so ago, has bean
held up by some mysterious influence, and
Columbia Oval at Wllllamabrldge Is the on?
chance here. Just why that is not ussd Is
uncertain. The track la one of the best In
tho country. It is an old track and haa
been taken excellent (?are of for years.
There Is a good 220-yard straightaway,
which Is Just what is demanded. The only
objection is that there is not seating ca
pacity enough, and that could be overcome
by the spending of only a small sum. The
field Is not now so hard to reach as It was
a few years ago and everything points to
it as an ideal place.
But as it seems certain that a continu
ance of the struggle between Harvard and
Pennsylvania is bound to lead to very un
pleasant results, it will be a good thing t)
take the chance of getting the champion
ship away from these colleges. At the
championship meeting the delegate from
Stevens' Institute announced that next
year there would be a good track at
Stevens. The work now is going on. In
building the track the Stevens men wisely
consulted with James E. Sullivan, who
helped 'them along with the plans being
used for the track for the Amateur Athletic
union championships at the Jamestown ex
position. This track, the association was
assured, waa not like the New York Coun
try club track. It actually was being built
and would be ready for use when next the
association met to decide on a place for the
championships of 1SW8.
So there is one place for the games.
Yale, it is understood, may ask for the
I championships next year, too, and that will
help to solve the Harvard-Pennsylvania
I problem. But It seems that it would be a
good scneme to send tne intercouegiate
championships to the place where the cross
country meet was so well managed that 19,
Princeton. There was a suggestion at the
recent meeting of the Inter-Colleglate Ama
teur Athletlo Association of America
that the games should go there thts year
anyhow, by way of splitting up the argu
ment between Harvard and Pennsylvania.
However, the smaller colleges having de
cided in favor of Pennsylvania, voted for
Franklin Field.
There Is only one objection to Princeton,
and that Is the size of the track. It is a
three-lap path. That makes it very hard
for visiting athletes to get their bearings,
especially In distance races. However, Yale
and Princeton meet there In perfect peact
and quiet, and perhaps the other colleges
can be prevailed upon to do the same.
It is certain that the weather there would
be good enough ninety-nine times out of
100 for a meeting In the latter part of May.
and accommodations there are adequate
for an enormous crowd.
The house where the competitors svould
have to dress In would be comfortably
enough to hold them all, and taking Into
consideration all the conditions that make
for a successful management of che meet
ing, liinceton would be a good place. The
cross-country meet there was very satis
factorily handled, as the athletes who
went down to Princeton can testify, and
that shows what can be done down there
So why, not Princeton and end all the fight
ing? A short time ago It waa declared that
Captain Folwell of the Pennsylvania foot
ball team was visiting In New Haven, with
the idea of getting on a game between
Yale and Pennsylvania for next fall, if
posulbla. Captain Folwell did come to New
Haven as a member of the Pennsylvania
wrestling team, and It was stated then
that his visit had nothing to do with foot
ball. From New Haven comes S. statement,
at all events, that there Is no prospect of
Yale seeking a game with the Quakers on
the gridiron for the fall of 1U7.
If it should arise that the annual Harvard-Yale
game should fall through this
fall Yala will not U-ke on another big
game in Its place, accorjmg to what Is be
ing said In New Haven. Instead, possibly,
small games with one or two other col
leges will be taken on to make up the loss
of the crimson. It Is the feeling at Yale
that the Princeton game each year Is a
great enough effort for the Yale team,
anyhow, without adding tbe Harvard game
a week later.
Yale Is certain, however, that there will
be a game with Harvard next fall. Even
though the Crlmsdn made the announce
ment that there was to be a game with
Annapolis before the date for the Harvard
Yale game was announced, there is a feel
tug of the completest confidence that the
relations of former years will not be broken
Into.
Princeton, which has not engaged to meet
Lafayette, Is taking up a game with Wash
ington and Jefferson again. The following
Is a statement from the manager of the
Pennsylvania team:
"Enthusiasts are greatly pleased over the
fact that Washington and Jefferson is to
get on a game again with Princeton. When
the management first wrote Princeton for
a date for the game, there was great sur
prise when word was sent back that
Princeton could not take on Washington
and Jefferson. The local manager then
took steps to arrange a game with some
other college and the University of Vir
ginia was hit upon. Later on it was learned
that Princeton wanted to arrange a game
for the very day upon which the Virginia
contest was to be held. There is now a
strong possibility that the date with
Princeton will be filled. That day Is October
Frank A. Piekarskl, coach the last two
seasons at Washington and Jefferson, this
week wrote Kerr Price, captain for the
season of 1807, that it is his full Intention
to be with the team another year. Pie
karskl Is practicing law In Pittsburg and it
was feared that he could not take time
from his profession to coach tha team this
year. The news that Piekarskl was cer
tainly going back to Washington and Jef
ferson was hailed with delight by the en
tire student body and the other supporters
of the team in Washington.
INCLB SAM MAY CONTROL BIROS
Federal Protection louarht Acalnst
gprlaK Rhoottnar In General.
NEW YORK. March 9. Sportsmen and
ornithologists are today engaged in the
serious consideration of a project for pla
cing under federul protection every bird
that migrates over the entire country. Un
less action is taken by several of the forty
state legislatures now convened for more
adequate measures against the destruction
by spring shooting of the flocks of wild
fowl that are beginning to cross their bor
ders, a campulgn will immediately be or
ganized by t lie National Association of Au
dubon Societies to place all mlgraloiy birds
under federal control. Various bodies of
sportsmen have already promised their sup.
port for such a measure and there Is every
indication that It would be received favor
ably at Washington.
More than half the states in the country
have already legislated against spilng
hooting, but the hosts of birds, returning
to male and breed in their old homes In
the north, are still met In many states
with a deadly fusillade that seriously de
pletes their ranks and threatens the full
shooting of the whole nation. It Is, con
sequently, becoming recognised by sports
meu and bird lovers generally that ss long
as any state fails to legislate In uniformity
with tbe great majority against this de
structive shooting In spring Its only effect
ive remedy must lid in securing general
protection from the national government.
That this can be done constitutionally has
been declared by ex-Congressman George
Blilraa 3d and other authorities, who have
been making a careful Investigation of the
subject.
For several years tha Audubon societies
have been working vigorously In many
etatt-s for the passage of laws which should
check with uniformity the spring activities
ot tha market and lot bucurs, who aioue
are benefited by an open season after the
first of the year. Their efforts have proved
successful In many instances and today a
great majority of the states of the union
have declared agatiiHt the unsportsmanlike
potting of the lean, home-seeking birds of
spring.
New Jersey, Connecticut. Rhode Island.
Massachusetts and Virginia are today the
states upon which a resort to federal au
thority depends. Should these states prsa
laws placing them In line with the otners
on prohibition of nprlng shooting, it is nut
considered that It will be necessary to In.
voko the authority of Washington In the
matter. There seems to be little hope of
such action by all the legislatures of these
five states at Just this time, however, and
preparations are being completed for a
forcible appeal to congress at its next ses
sion. Forty game commissioners In this country
nd British North America have written t
William Dulcher, president of the Audubon
association, strong etidoi St-ments of tho
plan for universal abolition of spring shoot
ing. Many of them advocate immediate
action for federal bird control.
I1ASE3 BALL SALARIES TOO HIGH

NEW YORK, March 9. From the tenor J

clubs throughout the I'nlted States It is
evident that not many of them will stand
for the exorbitant salaries which huve
been paid under stress by a great many
of the clubs In the last three years. In
a number of Instances the salary lists
have been so large that It has taken quite
all the gross receipts to pay them and at
the end of the season the club owners
have been left with so little on band that
they were not recompensed by a fair per
centage for the risk they took In pro
moting the business.
"There Is riot the slightest Intention on
the part of owners." said a prominent
base ball man, who was discussing the
salary question, "to give the players less
than they are entitled to. Indeed, tho
salaries this yeur nre very generous
throughout both leagrues, as I have occa
sion to know by reason of some corre
spondence which I have had with other
owners, but It does not seem fair that
we should be handicapped by obligations
at the beginning of the season which make
It almost out of the question to render the
season successful If we happen to be
handicapped by Ill-luck which we cannot
foresee. There Is not a player of reputa
tion who ins been asked, so far as my
knowledge goes, to play the coming year
for a recompense smaller than would be
given to most men who might be asked
to work double the time to earn It. I
think the players should appreciate this
fart and begin to remember that their
prnsperliy Is linked so closely with ours
that they should not mak it a hardship
to promote professional base ball."
