THE AUGUSTA HERALD, AUGUSTA, GA.
“Summer Baseball” and the Inter-
Collegiate Swimming League
New York,— I The brilliant record of
the Princeton hockey team coring tin
seuscin Just completed has led to on
agitation for the building of an arti
ficial Ice rink at Princeton before next
winter. The Idea found favor with
both undergraduates and nltimnt two
years ago hut beyond securing esti
mates for a rink and freezing plant
nothing was done-,
Prmcston’* Record.
The record of the Princeton seven In
winning the intercollegiate champion
ship under these adverse training c"v
dltlons was sn exceedingly meritori
ous performance. Aside from the Har
vard team none of the eastern college
sevens were able to check the fast and
clever Individual sml team plsy of the
Tigers Harvard won one of the three
contests scheduled and Ottawa college
won both gsrnes sgslnst Princeton, hut
only after exceedingly close and extra
period struggles. That the Tigers
should force the Canadian collegians
to the limit to win Is the best evi
dence- of the calibre of the Prlnreton
seven of 1913-14.
The seuson's record. Including both
the Intercollegiate and exhibit lon
games follows Princeton H, Ht. Paul's
school 3; Princeton 6, Toronto 2;
Princeton 4, Boston A. A. 2; Princeton
2, Ottawa 4; Princeton 9. Cornell 1:
Princeton 2, Dartmouth 0: Princeton
6, Army 0; Princeton 1, Harvard 2:
Princeton r>, Yale 3; Princeton 3, Yale
1; Princeton 4, Harvard 2; Princeton
4. Harvard t; Princeton 2. Ottawa 3.
In total goals scored the orange
and Black team more than doubled
the figures of Its opponents. In the
thirteen games played Princeton net
ted 54 goals to her opponent's 23. This
whs due In great part to the dashing
play anel speed of Captain Kuhn and
llobey" Baker. Not Including th
final game with Ottawa, each of these
players scored eighteen goals; more
Ulan half of the total record for the
season. It is probable that the record
of the Princeton seven of the present
season will not tie duplicated for sev
eral years at least, even should the
contemplated rink be built during the
coming summer.
A poll taken among the leading col
lege sevens of the east shows that a
niujorlty of the captains are In favor
of the reduction In the number of
players. Those who favor the plun in
clude Captain Heron of the Yale seven;
Captain It. M. Kimball of the Am
herst team; Captain N. D. McLeod of
the Massachusetts Institute of Tech
nology squad; Captain P. AV. Jones of
the Massachusetts Agricultural Col
lege seven, and Captain O. M. Clark
of the Cornell team. Captain R. Mill
hank of Columbia Is opposed to the
move. He admits that the game is
faster hut states that in his opinion
It spoils team work and materially re
duces the chances of players "making"
the team.

Summer Baseball,
The initial vote on the question of
permitting the playing of "summer
baseball'' by the students of Amherst
college showed 227 votes In favor of
the plan to 115 against the proposal.
The balloting, which was In the order
of a straw vote, has no direct or posi
tive hearing on the final action of
the student council, which may be de
layed for several weeks.
The question will now go before the
student council for final decision. The
action by the council Is In accordance
with the constitution of the associa
tion, which grants to the council the
power of “formulation and enforce
ment of eligibility rules excepting
scholarship rules."
In this decision the council will take
Into consideration the vote of the stu
dents' association as one of the Im
portant factors connected with the
question but It may not necessarily
decide the question In accordance with
the atudent vote. Among other prob
ably factors it will consider are the
opinions of alumni and faculty.
The vote cast by the student body
last year upon the summer baseball
question totaled, 190 votes for and 57
against summer baseball. A compari
son of these figures with the present
vote shows that last year, of the 247
