First-Year Men May Take Part in
Track, Basket Ball and
Baseball,
nCttfTb
By Jack Nye.
N ashville, tenn., Dec. 26.—
That one-year residence rule,
as adopted at the recent meet-
inut ot the S. I. A. A. at Jacksonville
applies only to football is a fact not
generally known by the public. It is
le gridiron game, however, that the
augrust body proposed to save from
[he temptation of professionalism
and freshmen will in no way be hin
dered from taking part in other col-
ege sports, provided they can frame
up for the necessary points with our
friend, Air. Carnegie.
However, there can be no getting
around the fact that the rule will af
fect these other sports indirectly, for
in case of a good football man com
ing to the university it is hardly
probable that he would be allowed to
knock a year off his gridiron career
hv taking part in track or baseball
during his first season at college.
I 'ntit the S. L A. A. rules thta a play-
r can have his four years of football,
m addition to other sports, the one-
vear rule is sure to keep some stars
off the baseball and track teams dur
ing their first year in school.
• * *
VTOT at all pleased with the one-
^ year rule, the Vanderbilt alumni
and others are now wondering who
will be the representative of the local
institution at the next annual meet
ing of the S. I. A. A., to be held at
Lexington. Ky., as Dr. Dudley will
in all probability not attend another
• n account of ill health.
Several men have been mentioned,
but the general impression is that
Vanderbilt’s affairs could not be
placed in better hands than those of
«'harles O. Trabue, one of her most
loyal alumni and chairman of the
games committee. Mr. Trabue is the
logical man for the position, being
well acquainted with the rules of the
S. I. A. A. and having always stood
for the highest and best in college
athletics. It is stated that there is a
strong probability that he will be
.chosen to attend the next meeting and
guard the interests of Vanderbilt.
* * *
[ X view of the decided handicap
* placed on the Commodores by the
one-year residence'rule in their games
with Virginia, North Carolina and
Michigan, there is a orobability that
the S. I. A. A. will exempt from the
rule when playing teams outside of
the association. This favor was
granted to Texas A. & M. at the
Jacksonville meeting and it can not
do said that the rule injured that in
stitution as much as it did Vander
bilt. Of the three teams named above
Michigan is the only one to have a
«»ne-year rule, but considering the
vastly greater number of students
''oach Yost has to choose from, Van
derbilt is in need of every opportun
ity for maintaining the team’s
strength in order to be able to meet
:!)© Ann Arbor eleven on anywhere
lear an equal footing.
Virginia has no one-year rule, nor
has Carolina, and this fact is sure to
dd them in the coming games with
Vanderbilt.

'T’HE 1914 football season will prob-
* ably determine Vanderbilt’s finai
stand on the one-year rule, and if it
is found to be too big a handicap
here is a strong probability that
steps will be taken to withdraw from
its ranks. Vanderbilt has reached a
stage of development in football and
"ther sports where it is not depend
ent on the S. T. A. A. and would have
it tie trouble in fixing a strong sched
ule without it; in fact, the chief
drawback would be the annual meet
ing with Sewanee on Thanksgiving,
which has become a historic event in
the South, but it is certain that the
football public here would not be
wanting for just as good a game, if
not better, should the Commodores

TOM SHOULD BE PERTURBED.

So free from fuss and flurry.

All three cf them are irood boys
and certain to be heard of near
the top within the next year.
E fficiency is the thing that
counts in these modern
days of figuring everything
on a percentage basis. And there
is no good reason wny the fight
ers should not be classified in
much the same way that an em
ployer of huge numbers of men
classifies them—on an efficiency
basis. Suppose we say that a
man gets 100 per cent or the
limit of excellence, for the points
he shows In the ring. The trou
ble would be how to figure out
the points. Why not give him
33 1-3 per cent each for game
ness. aggressiveness and consis
tency? These are the things that
make champions and cause cham
pions to hold their j bs.
G ETTING up among the feath
ers one can not overlook the
champion of them all, Johnny Kil-
bane. Lately he has developed
the K. O, punch, and this, with
his other qualifications, makes
him almost an Ideal leader of the
division. There are few others.
We might include “Peanbts"
Schlerberl, of Illinois; Knockout
Mars, of Cincinnati, and Harry
Tracey,* the young New Yorker,
who recently gave Charley White
the toughest kind of a battle,
Then we are almost done among
the 122-pounders.
T HIS being the Morning After,
and feeling that way about it,
we will now consider briefly
the case of Hirsig vs. Schwartz.
As we get this tumultuous disagree
ment, the present status is that four
of the six directors of the Nashville
ball club have met and in solemn
conclave assembled have fired the
Honorable Hirsig bodily, retaining
Mr. Manager Schwartz in his regular
position, and naming a new president
in the person of Clyde Shropshire, for
merly vice president.
Heigh-ho!
* * *
M R. HIRSIG counters with the as
sertion that he can’t be fired in
anv such way, which recalls the state
ment of the passenger who was
chucked off a passenger train after
an argument about his fare, and re
mained standing in the middle of the
track as the train departed, insisting
that the conductor couldn't put him
off.
••He uas the hardest man to cott-
vinc i - ter saw.'' said the conductor.
Ml-. Hirsig appears to be a pretty
fair running mate—what?
We are in favor of the plan to build
a great athletic stadium in Washing

NO TIGER SHAKE-UP.
PRINCETON, Dec. 26.—It Is denied
here that any shake-up is intended in
the Tiger coaching system, which will
prevail again next season in the usual
form.
Johnny Kling remarks that he will
play next year in Kansas City or not
at all. We shouldn’t think a man
would be so particular after he has
played in Cincinnati.

If Joe Tinker can only bat as well
next summer as he is clouting in the
Winter League he will make Ty Cobb
look like a wooden man.

Lincoln Beachey takes long chances
when he loops the loop, but if you

has not offered to manage the Reds.

would even classify Ad Wolgast,
an ex-champion, higher than
either Willie Ititchie or Tommy
Murphy. Rigid anti good Wol
gast comes nearer being th< ideal
leader of a class than either of
them. We’d have to take in Wil
