Western League Batting Record
About thei Intent Intelligence procurable
on the subject of Intercollegiate sport In
the went la that the conference Intercol
legiate association la doomed to failure.
The story goes that the defection of Michi
gan and Nebraska are expected to work
ruin to the enunciation, although the oth
ers are going to stand together for a
While Just how thla will work out l
tint made very clear. The report emanates
from those who do not bear the confer
ence any rr.-od will. They believe that
Mlchifrnr.. . ; the most Important element
in the conference since Its foundation not
SO many years pro. will cripple It hope
lessly by withdrawing.
There does not appear to be any good
reason for expecting, however, that such Is
groins; to be the case. The conference has
Stood some hard knocks In Its brief ex
istence, and the withdrawal of one Institu
tion from the Big Nine, viewed reasonably,
cannot destroy the whole fabric. In fact,
avs matters now stand Michigan Is qualify
ing" to play a lone role In western sport,
Mid the chances are that unless the eastern
Institutions welcome the Ann Arbor people
tieartlly the Malxe and Blue will be forood
Into making peace with the conference,
it does not appear reasonable that Michi
gan can force eight other colleges Into
line, tweause with Chicago, Minnesota and
Wleconsln grouped, there Is enough first
rate competition without recourse to Michi
gan, '
ICaaternera Are Wanderlna.
Easternera cannot exactly figure out how
Michigan can hold the conference by the
throat In an attempt to force legislation
favorable to Ann Arbor. For Instance, In
the eaat Harvard Is affected more un- I
favorably by the graduate rule than any '
other Institution. Harvard la the great
postgraduate Institution of those actively i
engaged In athletic sports. The rule cuts '
the Harvard athletic population away
down In figures. In fact. Harvard men
ay that Instead of figuring on the basis
of 6,000 men to draw from for athletic
ports various restrictions make the figure
actually about one-fifth of that number. J
it Is added that tuken all In all Dart
mouth, reckoned as all college, probably
has as many etudanta to call upon for the
support of athletic teams.
Play (ironnds at Cornell and Vnl".
The building of play grounds, so to speak,
at Cornell tin J Yale and the news that
there is great need of such places brings
home forcibly a new development In
American universities. Great spaces aro
now being turned over for the uses of the
nonnthlettc team students. That Is to say,
the men who do not ko out to exercise
with the primary object of being members
of any team are beginning to get ihelr
Innings. Formerly only those men actually
candidates for athletic teams were sup
posed to be entitled to the ure of athletic
grounds. Now, however, the general mass
of the student body is getting to have Its
rights.
At Cornell, for Instance, the members of
the alumni body ure engaged In raising
subscriptions for an athletic field of this
kind of very generous dimensions for the
use of the nonathletes. At Tale they need
more ground for tennis courts and other
athletic grounds for the exercising man.
While the result of these activities Is sure
to be the development of more men for the
ithletla teams, this Is not tho primary ob
ject. If there should happen to be a few
men to find themselves, athletically apeak
'ng, on the playgrounds that will be all
very well. However, tho benefits to the
rreat mass who have no time for athletic
'.raining and small opportunity for exer
.Ise will be great.
To resume, If Harvard had scented In
.he graduate- rule a pan by Tale, for In
itance, und had refused to continue In
jompetitlon against the Blue and other
.-olleges, what would have been the likely
.'eaullY Harvard would have been frco to
so and no one would have made any step
.o bar the way for the Crimson. Even
Yale, whose condition of friendly rivalry
with Harvard la more Intimate than that of
any ether college, would have made only
x perfunctory effort to hold Harvard to
any Intercollegiate association. It is un
likely that the I. C. A. A, A. A. would
have adopted the retaliatory measures
iaken by the conference In making It diffi
cult for those not subscribing to the con
ference to take any active part In Inter
collegiate games. But Harvard would have
Seen free to go exactly as la Michigan and
with no better justification.
So It seams that lltt s chance as Har
arU would have to break up the I. C. A.
a, A. A., the situation out west Is ex
ictly paralleled. However, Michigan maty
ta banking on the numerous rivalries and
HfXerenoas among the western colleges to
form a brand new coalition. If that effort
a successful, that combination may laat
is long aa the conference.
Condition of the vy.
Down at Annapolis they are well satis
led with their track and field coach. P. J.
flnneran, the old Knickerbocker Athletic
;lub man. Flnneran has bean there for
three sa&sona and has accomplished great
-eeulte on a by no meana good equipment,
rhe track there la small of five laps to the
nlle. and the surface la not adapted for
he best work. It was not even so good
when Flnneran came there. It was re
narkble work that he did there In hla
lrst season.
That year the Annapolis athletes went
jp against their record tables In great
ityt and in the season broke every record,
rhe year following, which was last year,
.hay broke all the records again except
wo. The team thla year la composed of
rood men in the main, and a rather daring
irogram of athletic meets waa arranged,
(t la Just barely poaslble that with better
iuallty of men to meet Flnneran may not
ihow much results.
However, In another season or so he will
are his men educated to competing against
.he very beat. Annapolis felt Its oats so
.trongly thla season that an attempt was
tade to get on a dual meet with Princeton.
That fell through for the time being, but
hey are In hopes of msklng it next year.
Tlnneran has to struggle against certain
c.leadvantages. For one thing, hla men
: re very young and have had aa a rule
;mall experience In the game. Again they
0 not have much time for athletic sports,
""hey have only a short period every nfter
oa and If they want to take some relaxa
loa other than training for track sports it
1 vary hard to keep them down to that.
. Ie has. however, the advantage of getting
ne of good physical proportion to work
Uh and that la a help at the start.
Aonapclle would like to have a dual meet
- very year with Weat Point and It may yet
1 accomplished. At the present writing
Vast Point would likely fare the better.
-rpeclally on account of tha older man who
: re students at the military academy.
Annapolis hae been very happy in ita
to toe of the men for athletic trainers,

The Bee publishes today a complete list
of the plsyers of the Western league with
their batting avcruges, runs,' hits, two
base hits, three bsse hits, home runs, stolen
bases and sscrlfice hits. This Is to be
printed In revised form each Sunday and
will give the readers of The Hee an op
portunity to keep In touch with all the
players In the Western league.
According to the figures, twenty-eight
players In tha league are hitting .3(0 or bet
ter, which 10 a splendid record when It Is
remembered the season wna atarted before
the wintry blasta had ceaBed to aweep over
the plains and the. players were too stiff
from exposure to do much real ball playing.
Of tho twenty-eight who are above the
coveted mark Omaha has four players,
Autrey, Austin Welch and Dolan, with
H U.-n the first man under the mark.
Omaha no longer has a player who has
not made a hit, because Hall, who waa
the last to register, has one to his credit
The Omaha team will return from Its
western trip and open out on the home
grounds with four games with Des
Moii.es tomoirow after which four games
will be played with Des Moines at the Iowa
capital. Some of the Omaha players do
not hit as well on the home grounds as
they do away from home and aome of
Pa's youngsters were backward thla spring
in getting to going but the shyness is
working off and theae are now expected
I to do better. Belden Is a natural hitter
( and la looked upon aa one of the beat
1 hitters In the league. Autrey has been
'coming fsst In the last few games. He
was In bad shspe after his long walk
from Mexico and the cold of Nebraska
this spring did not seem to agree with
, him after his winter spent In the south
J country, but he la coming to hla own, and
' who knowa but he may soon be leading
the league in hitting. Didn't he get five
: times up In Pueblo the other day?
Autrey la tied with Wheeler, with twenty-nine
hits each In the games played this
season, but Wheeler and Oagnler lead him
In batting, as they went to bat less times.
Autrey Is also at the head In the number
of two-sackers, but In this he has Elwert,
Welch and Omaha Belden tied with him.
.Wheeler of Denver easily leads In three
baggers, with a total of five, and also
leads in home runa. Austin has stolen
ten baaea and Andreas and Schlpke have
stolen twelve each.; Andreas leads the
league In the number of sacrifice lilts.
Cook of Pueblo Is the big run getter, hav
ing scored twenty-four times, with Autrey
following a close second with twenty-two
runs. "The real leader of tho regulars tn
the league in hitting Is Gagnler of Lin
coln, with Wheeler and Autrey following.
Two have hit the ball harder, but they
have played In many less games. The

Dartmouth, Williams and Drown.
Fo. lowing is a letter which give the
Dartmouth side of the controversy between
Dartmouth, Williams and Brown over
broken athltic relations:
HANOVER, N. H., May 15. To the Editor
of The Bee: The article appearing In last
Sunday's Bee concerning the breaking of
athletic relations between Brown and Dart
mouth was based on such meager informa
tion that In justice to the Dartmouth
alumni In Omaha and vicinity tha facta
ought to be published.
The Williams affair was almply a caae
of the atudent body at Williams usurping
the dntlea of the referee by rushing onto
the floor and mobbing the Dartmouth
basket ball Warn with chairs, etc. Rela
tions were only broken off bv Dartmouth
when, after two weeks, no apology had
been received. The exact sequence of
events In the Brown affair aa published by
The Dartmouth were aa follows:
1. The Bcston Herald aald that Sklllln
was right concerning the contested de
cision of the Brown-Dartmouth umpire
and Tniplro Connelly of the Boston Ameri
cans olted rules In support therefor.
2. Skl.lln was overhasty In ' withdrawing
the team from the Held.
J. Sklllln made an Immediate public
apology for his act and therein offered to
play Brown at Providence without guar
antee and on any day which Brown might
elect.
4. The Dartmouth Weekly expressed its
regret that the team was withdrawn from
the Held.
6. The Dartmouth athletic council was
awaiting the return of the base ball tram,
lireo.iratory to making an ofllclal apology
to Ilrown for the unfortunate episode.
6 In this posture of affairs, before the
team had returned and before the athletic
council had opportunity to act. Brown
severed all athletic relations.
In view of thes facts, slnoe Dartmouth
not only admitted her unfortunate mistake
but also took Immediate steps to remedy it,
If Brown w'shed to sever athletic rela
tions Dsrtmouth do- not complain. What
ever his college affiliations, any cmdld
man murt admit that Dartmouth, having
mistakenly erred, sought at once, though
In vain, to rectify its mistake.
The attitude of Dartmouth hn been up
held by all the Boston papers, ps well a
those of Manchester, Springfield'- and even
of Providence, Brown's home papers. Tours

At Peru the Bullevue team waa defeated,
8-L In a close and exciting game. At Ne

The collegiate league games played so
far insure to Bellevue the pennant for this
year. Laat fall It won the foot ball cham
pionship for Nebraska colleges, thi spring
the base ball championship, and it has
done this without sixty men In attendance
at the school, whlie ita rivals have had
from 160 to 400 men. With thirty men on
the foot ball field and more than two
teams on the base ball field every night,
a percentage of 50 of the male atudents
in achool. It has made a record of which
It can be proud.
Thla spring thinga looked blue and dis

among Nebraska colleges. The lineup of

"AMERICAN REGATTA" FILLS
Firth Annual Kvent at Philadelphia
Mill See the Kchu IUIII
Crowded.
Pmi.APKT.rniA. Msy 18. From the ra
pidity with which all of the ovnte are
filling for the fifth annual "American re
gatta" on fay 25, this meottnpr will surprise
nil of tt predecessors. Not only will ths
Junior collf-sre race he bf-tter filled than
ever, hut the scholastic race rind all the
other events will likewise contain an tin
nsimlly larfre number of hlKh-clsss rrews.
The colleges represented sre Cornell, Yale,
Ifnr'-nril. Pennsylvania anJ Oeorpetown,
while practically every important club
from Ilaltlmore, Washington, New York
and Urooklyn. with perhnps s representa
tive from Boston, will he on hand.
The st-wards are dllphted because Yale
Is to send one of Mie best eights It can
muster. This will bn the ilrt time that
the Ella have sent anything but a fresh
mnn crew. The stewards have nt last
gotten Yale to appreciate the great valiu
of this nice for glvlna; Its oarsmen ex
peri"nce. It Is tor th's purpose that Cor-n.-ll.
Pennsylvania and Unrvsrd have been
titlllslns It for yenrs. This year the Klla
are more In need of experience than ever,
hecuuoe the'r crew Is made up almost en
tirely of men who never before rowed In
a 'varsity of second eight. The Harvard
crew is fully expert" need und will there
fore have n deckled advantage over Ynle
at New I-ondon.
Th race fur first club eights promises
to be a splendid contest It will brine
together the New York Athletic club and
two, and perhaps three, Philadelphia crews.
There Is one crew frym this city, made up
almost entirely of former I'nlverslty of
Pennsylvania oarsmen, which Is certain to
make lots of trouble thla year. This is
the Bachelor club eight. The crew Is being
stroked by Italph Zane. the former Penn
sylvania stroke, and In addition to 7-ane
contains se-verjl other Pennsylvania atars.
Although the University of Pennsylvania
la the only college which will hnve an
artopede crew on the water, the stewards
li.tend to keep up tbtlr agttitton In favor
of this kind of a crew until more col-tea-es
take It up. This year Pennsylvania
will have to row against three strong club
octopede crews, two from this city nnd
one from New York. The Quakers won the
event a year ago, nnd, as the men have
been rowing; together for two months.
Coach Ward thinks they will triumph
again.
Challenge cups will be presented In six
events, as follows: The Farrntr.it tup. for
first shiB-le sculls; the Schuylkill cup. for
first double sculls; the Puritan cup, for
first four-oared shells; the Franklin cup.
for school elBht-oared shells; the Btew
ards' cup, for first elght-oardcd shells,
and the New Kng'.and cup, for collejiute
elfchts. Pesldes ti.ese cups there will be
prises for second slrntle sculls, first four
sculls (centipedes), fir.-t pair oared shells,
second four-onrdtd sheila and second
elght-oarded shells. All the races will be
at ! mile and 550 yarda, Btntlghtaway.
MIUDIKS TO ROW AT POl GHKIiEPSlli
Secretary of War Issues Formal Or
der (or the Race.
ANNAPOUS. May IS. The secretary of
the navy has issued formal orders for the
Annapolis crew to go. to Joughkeepsie, so
that nothing now stands In the way. This
regatta will row become doubly Important,
for there la an lntereat attached to the ath
letic comietltlon of both the naval and mili
ary cadeta which not oven a big unlverslt il.
can an uae. The middles have been cuttliaV
a wldo swath In college rowing duriiis tiio
laat few years and have victories ovif;
Yale, Pennsylvania, Columbia ami George
town to their credit.. Therefore there Is no
leason to fear that khey are getting beyond
their depth by competing ut PouKhkeepsle.
They have been able to hold their own In
every brunch of athletka In which they
have competed bo far and are rertaln not
to be disgraced at Poughkvcsle. There
have been a good many pi edit lions to tha
effect that tbe middles have an even chance
to win on the Hudson. There Is really
nothing on which to base such a belief aa
this, however. Those who express it fall
to consider the great difference la tha con
ditions at Poughkeepale and on the Severn,
where the Annaptlta crews row. The first
handicap which the middles must overcome
a the greater length of tbe Pouglikeopsle
oour
