THE ELIGIBILITY REGULA
TIONS.
I lic Southern Inter collegiate Nth
letn Association was ot uii/r-l lor
the upbuilding and |>nrificatioii ol
Sotttliern college athletic> Its titles
wetc formulated alter long and care
ful consideration liv men thoroughly
competent to <|o the work in hand,
and as a result, we have a code ot
provisions and restric tions which ate
theoretic ally perfect.
lint theory and practice are often
sadly at variance with each other, a
lac t conc lusively show.. In the case
in hand. \\Y are sure that it the
rules were obeyed in spirit and in let
ter, no professionals would Intel
places on Southern college teams
licit we know positively ot instances
where men who were ineligible undei
the new rules were allowed by op
posing c olleges to continue work on
their teams because lor some hidden
reason it would have been impolitic
to throw them oil.
Ibis evasion ol the truth is harm
ful to all concerned, ami after all, the
old evil is not obviated.
And again, we have observed the
weakness ol the rules in u.o.e ia>es
than one where bona fide students of
various institutions have been kept
from play ing merely bec ause they te
ceived tiavcllmg expenses and possi
bly a slight remuneration, for playing
summer hall in only a very few games
A notable example ol this injustice
was the ease ol I. II Kleischman,
who was prevented from playing cut
the Georgia teams of '05 and 06. It
was c lunged that this wonderful little
shortstop was in college merelv for
the baseball he tigmed in, and that
he would leave as soon as he was put
off the team. In striking contrast to
any such action, he continued his
work m college and was given a di
ploma with the class ot '0(1.
The case ol U harlte Vox is much
the same. V o\ is in College lor two
ycats knowing that lie w ill be unable
to play either football ot baseball. So
the S. 1. A. A. Authorities must be
at fault m declaring him a profes
sional.
We might stand for these injustices
il we knew they were necessary in
stamping out professionalism. But
the purpose is not accomplished, and
the sacrifice serves no good end
Let the S. I. A, A. authorities note
the weak points in the rules of the
assoc tation and strengthen them. W’e
will then promise them a support
which is impossible so long as
they accomplish more harm than
good.
A WHITE AND
YELLOW SCALP.
I’lie above heading is not the title
of a new ensatioiial novel. Oh, no!
Its merely an object which four bun
dled husky Georgia rooters want
above everything else right now, and
lor which a spec ial raid will take
place next Saturday, the tenth!
The loxy North Carolina hunch
resolved to win every game this sea
son or skip the roost. Of course
they skipped the roost when it came
to a game with Georgia! Hut lleis-
man's doom is sealed. He’s bot
tled up in Atlanta trout, rear, and
both sides, and the latest telegram
troni the Chiel <d Police of tile (late
City says that lie’ll he there still
when Georgia arrives on the scene of
action.
Hut he won’t he there long after
that little scrimmage commences, lor
it’ll he hack to the tall timbers for
him then, and we opine lie'll take
the hint!
W’e don’t feel inclined to give the
crafty t tide John any advice, hilt if
we did. we should tell him to prac
tice Brown six clays out of this week
in drop kicking for goal from the
fifty-live yard line! W'e believe that
they might score upon 11s should the
••Lobster” perfect himself in this lit
tle detail ol the science.
Hut these line points will crop out
in the game, and while we expect to
win the decision without any tumble,
yet we cannot guarantee the exact
score just as yet.
Hut the main object now is to get
each man in college to say that lie
will see the game il it is physically
(to say nothing ol financially) possi
hie logo. Atlanta will he thrown
open to us after the skiitnish, for our
friends and alumni thete never forget
us. So get permission at once, bor
row ten dollars, though two tin is
w hat you w ill need, and we'll all take
a sett in the dining car with ‘‘Geor-
gia 28, I'cch o" marked all over the
hill-ol fare!
Hut hold! Just a minute. Ames,
sage from the l . S DOPE Bl’REAl'
c orrecting the above scote lias just
arrived. It reads thusly: “Georgia
will win game, blit previous score we
sent was a mistake. Should read,
Georgia tv, lech or Georgia 12.
lech o, the dittcrcnce depending
upon numbers ol Georgia rooters!
present!”
Phis is authentic. So let's get the
dozen instead of the half t
City Y. M. C. A. Secures a New
Physical Director. New Man
an Expert in His Line and
Will Greatly Benefit
the Association
which the students and others have
shown in the physical classes and
gymnasium work ol the city Young
Men’s Christian Association, the di
rectors of the Association have seen
fit to secure a new and absoiu'ely
competant man to fill the position of
physical director. The position lias
been vacant for some time, and the
hoard of directors has been on the
lookout for some good man to take
the place. It was necessary t > have
in this position a man not only pos
sessing the innate capability to direct
other men, but one who also hail had
-lie proper experience and training
in the courses to he pursued.
Such a man lias been secured in j
the person of Mr. Charles (>. lleul-
ler, who has been for the past two |
weeks directing the student classes in
the gymnasium. Mr Heidlcr came
to Athens from Reading, Pennsyl 1
vania, where he was assistant physical
director in the association. There !
he received all the training necessa- |
ry to make his work here a success, j
and that this is so is attested by the
great interest that is shown in the :
different classes, especially the stu
dent class.
Tor the last two week or more there
lias been a constant attendance at
these classes of, on the average, fortv
men, and each one says that lie
already feels the benefit of the work
done.
Alter the classes’ basket hall is
played and the men who aspire to
positions on the University team,
thus have an opportunity to get in
good training.
The Y. M C. A. is to he congrat
ulated on securing the services of
Mr. Heidlcr, and is is to he hoped!
that every one will take the proper
interest in the classes necessary to |
make them a great success.
