THREE OPPOSE FRESHMAN RULE IN THIS STATE Wabash, Franklin and Normal Gymnasts Vote Against First-Year Ban. ELEVEN SCHOOLS ACCEPT 14 Colleges Represented at Formation of Indiana Intercollegiate Conference. Shortly after noon a vote was taken by the State colleges on the freshman rule which resulted in Its approval by eleven of the colleges represented. Wabash. Franklin and Normal A. G. IT.l T . of Indianapolis voted “No.” Professor Cragwall of Wabash asked the one-year rule be brought up first as Wabash would not enter any conference in which such a rule existed, he said. There was discussion on the rule by Crag- — well, Stiehiu of Indiana, Gelston of Butler, and Blanchard of De Pauw. Krnest Wagner of Franklin Btated that he had been instructed by the faculty committee of his college not to sanction the rule. The rule as adopted is as follows: “No person shall participate in intercollegiate athletics at an institution until he shall have completed thirty-six hours of academic work.” A vote on the remaining sections of the constitution and by-laws was to take place later this afternoon. Athletic representatives of 14 State universities and colleges were in session here at the Claypool Hotel today discussing the organization of the proposed Indiana Intercollegiate Conference! an organization whose sponsors hope will embody all the colleges in Hoo&ierdom supporting athletic teams. The big question before the representatives touav was the “freshman rule,’ which would bar first-year students from competition on varsity teams. Three schools, Indiana, Purdue and Notre Dame l Diversities— already have this rule and they seemed to be behind a movement to get'all other State colleges to adopt it. Opposition from some quarters to. universal State adoption of the first-year “ban” developed, not because those op-! posing it thought it did not possess some good features, but because its adoption would mean greater expense to the athletic departments of the small col- j Schools represented at today s meeting and the men representing them follow: Indiana, E. O. Stiehm: Purdue, N. A. Kellogg; Notre L'ame. K. K. Roekne;! Franklin, Ernest Wagner: Wabash. Pete. Vaughan. J. A. Cragw all, Harry Scholler. | Howard O'Neill: De Pauw, Fred W alker. i E. M.

Gelston; L. J. Yoder, I North Manchester: Dr. Carl B. Sputh. • Normal A. G. U. (Indianapolis). Oakland Oitv Goshen. Valparaiso and Evansville, also were invited to the day s conference, but they did not send representatives At a meeting of the executive committee last night a tentative constitution and by-laws was drawn up to submit to the | meeting tndav. The committee consisted of N. A Kellogg of Purdue, temporary president; K. K. Roekne of Notre Dame., secretary; J. A. Cragwall of Wabash, F. N. Blanchard of De Pauw and H. M. Gelston of Butler. The Southern Intercollegiate Conference constitution w-as followed closely ir. drafting the Indiana constitution. The Soul hern Conference Is the latest to he formed, and so had the good features of the various organizations formed before. The name of the new Hoosler State Conference will be the Indiana Intercollegiate Conference. The meeting today of the various representatives of the State will not be final In the sense that the action taken must be approved bv the different athletic boards of the colleges, but the delegates here had the assurance that what thev did today would be favorably passed upon by the faculty committee* at home.

Billy Evans Says
Glendon of Navy Great Coach of Crew The name of Richard Glendon has replaced that of Courtney and Ten Eyck in college rowing circles. For years Cornell was unbeatable on the water. The Courtney-coached crews of Cornell were supreme. Then Syracuse University astracted widespread attention because the Teu Eyck crews triumphed over those of Courtney. "Old May" Courtney, as he was knwon, is dead. His passing marked the end of Cornell's supremacy on the water, although of late Cornell has been coming back into its own. Jim Ten Eyck is still hale and hearty, and still coaching Syracuse, but of late he has uut been in the limelight as of old. Unquestionably lack of talent, rather than any f.ult with the coaching, has been responsible for the showing of Syracuse. At Annapolis, looking after the navy crews, Is a bit. of a family affair. It is a rather strang coincidence that the coaching Is done by father and son. “Old Man” Glendon. as he is familiarly known to the navy. Jooks after the varsity crews, while his son hardies the freshman eight. Naturally fathand and son have the same system, so that the son does the developing of the plebes, while the father adds the finish touches. At one time most of the crews representing the larger American universities were coached by English professionals. The English style was generally regarded as the last word on the water. •*• . . Style Directly Opposite to English It is a rather interesting fact that the navy crew is eoaehed In a style that is the direct opposite of the English style. The remarkable success of the Navy would make it seem that the American style was supreme. The supremacy of the American style, which is the direct reverse of the English, should not occasion any great surprise, since there Seems to have been a change in winning methods In practically every sport during the past ten years. In golf the long game has supplanted the conservative style. All the stars of golfdom, ns well as the novices, seek to get distance to their drives. A great many are prone to neglect their short game. Most of the golf champions in all classes in their last four or five years have been noted for their ability to get distance from the tee. In baseball the wallop has supplant/'d the hit and run. and the gaerifiee, as weli as the chop hit. This is the era of swat in baseball, golf and tennis. In football the forward pass has entirely revolutionized the style of play. In swimming the Australian crawl stroke has supplanted thte old stroke. The crawl stroke gets the speed with less effort. Therefore the success of the Glendon 1 and American style of coaching os the water Is simply an evolution of the
TRIBE SCORES ANOTHER JUMP IN FLAG RACE They Make It Bad for Good, New K. C. Pilot, in Series Opener. WOW! WHAT A RALLY! After making it bad for New Manager Good, of the Blues yesterday, the InI dians were thinking seriously of repeati ing the dose. The Tribesmen would like I to be nice to Wilbur in his trials as a team pilot, but just at this time the locals feel they can’t afford to slow down, for they have reached a point where they are only a few points out of first place In the hot flag chase. By downing the Blues yesterday, 9 to 4, while the Hens were defeating the Millers at Toledo, the Indians eased Up within a few steps of the lead position and they hoped to gain more ground this afternoon when they tackled the Blues for the second time. It was great stuff to see the home crew come from behind yesterday when they scored eight runs in the eighth inning. The K. C. boys were working hard to put over a victory for their new boss and the game seemed to be in their hands when the eighth stanza arrived, ltay Caldwell was going along in good style on the K. C. mound and had a 4 to 1 lead. Covington, first up in eighth, hacked Zwilling to the fence in right field to' catch his drive. Tribe hopes fell. Brown singled to left and Itehg singled to center. I New life arrived with those bits and then j Ernie Krueger cracked the pellet to tht-j scoreboard for three sacks, scoring : Brown and Rehg. Wow! That was the blow that settled the game, practically.! Blaekburne erred on .Schrelbor's roller, Krueger scoring with the tying run. Krueger would have scored regardless of the error on Schreiber, however, for the ball was hit to Blackburne’s left and in on the gras.4. giving Ernie plenty of time to romp home. The parade continued. Schreiber made a delayed steal of second, Morrison dumped a Texas leaguer into right. Weaver was safe and Schreiber scored when Catcher Yaryan dropped Blackburnes throw. Baird walked. Sicking dropped a single In right, scoring Morrison. Covington forced Weaver at the! plate and then with Baird. Sicking and Covington on the sacks Brown tripled to right, clearing the bases. Rehg fanned for the third out. Eight runs, six hits, two errors. Plenty of rally there. Caldwell had given way to Dawson when Weaver was batting, but he failed to and anv checking of the rally for his team was too far In the air to anchor at that time. The average fan wouldn't have given l a nlekel for the Tribe's chances until Kru- busted that one to the score boar, in the eighth. It was Ernie's third , hit. New Manager Good made a game try ! for Krueger s drive and he crashed into the fence. Wilbur evidently felt victor, . departing on that shot, it did. Lena Blaekburne, the K C. short stop, > formerly played in this league with Mil-' waukee. Later he played with Toronto when the Indians defeated the Canadian team for the Class AA title in li'li. Rube Lutzke, former Indian, failed to; connect safely for the Blues. Thomas J. Hickey, president of tho American Association, gumshoed into the park and didn't make his presence known until after the game. So many plavers have been fired out of games here that Hickev evidently thought it best to make a call and look the umpires over. Hickey expressed gratification over the growing attendance at games here. He said in every A. A. city the Indianapolis team is regarded as one that will be ir the running throughout the season. Caldwell passed Covington to get at Brown in the fifth and got away with it. In the eighth Brown made up tor this move on the part of the K C. strategy by batting twice in the inning and getting a single and triple. Bunnv Brief, the league’s chief home run hitter, is gtUl incapacitated by Illness hut hopes to return to action shortly. Fred Luderus. former Toledo manager, I is holding down the first sack In Bunny b absence. Fred got a triple and single yes- | ter day. J New Manager Good got a single and home run. His circuit drive was perfect and came In the fifth inning with i one mate on. The ball went beyond the | flag pole and Good scored standing up. j The Tribe did not make an error bei hind Harry Weaver. i Pitcher Pat Shea arrived from New York yesterday afternoon and witnessed the game from the stands. He was to don a uniform today. Golden Myth Is Reality ASCOT HEATH, England. June 15. —Golden Myth won the golden cup at Ascot today.

AMATEUR DON’TS AND PERT POINTERS
If you are an inflelde.r don’t rush at a ground ball without any regard to the way It is hopping. To a certain extent an lnfllelder can Judge how to play ball. It Is usually the best plan to go forward on a ball, but, some times, a step back on a hard hit ball will enable you to make an easy assist on a ball that otherwise might escape you. A good infielder learns to shift his feet to pick up a grounder just as quickly as he shifts his hands. M atch tha hops like a hawk and pounce on the easy one* It possible.

The agitated White Sox made it six straight by outlasting tho Athletics lu a slugging duel, 6 to 5. Behind the dizzy pitching of Dazzy Vance, the Dodgers scored a 4 to 0 victory over the Cardinals. George Sister’s one hundredth hit of the season was a home run with tlio bases filled in the sixth inning, and in consequence the Browns overcome a five-run lead and beat the Washington Senators, 7 to 6.

DOPEOUTTHAT BURNS IS NEXT CINCY MANAGER Rumor Has It That Moran Will Be Deposed by Garry Herrmann. GOT TO HAVE WINNER BY DAYIS J. WALSH. NEW Y’ORK, June 15.—Pat Moran, to step carefully out, George Burns co step modestly in as manager of the Cincinnati Reds. That is the report left In the wake of the Reds as they fled our city beautiful after dropping four straight to the Giants. It began some days ago with what was alleged to be an inside tip from the Red business administration and since then has accumulated authenticity as a vest accummulates soup stains. It is now accepted as something in the nature of a certified fact. If Moran is deposed, it will not come as a stunning surprise to many familiar with the Garry Herrmann system of scene shifting around the Cincinnati ball park. They demand a winner out there and change managers as often as they fail to get the desired effect, which might be said to be somewhat frequently. Moran gave them a world's charnpion ir. 1919. but from the Cincinnati viewpoint, the past is dead, long live the future. It is said that they feel there is little future for the Reds with Moran at the head of the ball club. Pat with all his managerial virtues, is something of a one-year manager. He succeeded Charlie Doin as pilot of tho Phillies in 1915 and steered a derelict team to its first National League pennant. That was fine business.
But with stronger clubs to work with, he failed to repeat in 1916 and 1917 aid the following year, his last in Phi adelphia. he finished in the second division. It was then that they sang him "Tosti’s Good-bye,” with variations.
