"If baseball Isn't encouraged In our minor leagues, colleges, universities, high schools, grade schools, vacant lots and city parks, where will the player of tomorrow cdmo from?" "The' answer," ho went on, "Is simple. There won't bo any players of tomorrow." ' In Speaker's opinion there Is no such a thing as a lock of Interest' In the sport.' Many colleges, he com mented, have dropped baseball not because the students don't want to play baseball, but because the ex- penso of outfitting a team la too high. This state of affairs exlBts also In high schools, grade schools and even on tho vacant lots, ho added. "Tho majora have got to do some thing and do It mjghty quickly," he said. "They have got to see that baseball equipment gets Into our schools and on the vacant lots, let tho majors supply the playing para phernalia and baseball will come back. "Don't think the game Is gone. It needs a stimulant Just like a lot of our business concerns." Turning to 'the salary question, Speaker expressed the opinion that salaries aro too high and must come downand will. The baseball player, he quickly added, realizes this and cxpcoU) It. Speaker was once manager of tho Cleveland Indians. X Sport Slants " ' ,iy"Ahm J. '(iniihl (Associated Press Sports Editor) "In my 37 yeai or officiating." remarked Dr. Eddie O'Brien, the ref eree, "I never had a tougher or more complicated game to handle than the Pittsburgh-Pennsylvania Contest." Wo were on tho way back from Philadelphia, an hour after this sen sational tussle, and the doctor still had his rule book tightly clutched In one hand, gesticulating with tho other and reading aloud from cer tain technical passages touchln' on and appcrtalnln' to tho events he had Just handled.

Welt, the rules fltato: 'After the ball Is kicked across the line of scrimmage (even If It be partially blocked), no player of the kicker's team may touch or recover It until It touches an opponent.'

It was one of tho sensations of the 1031 season but Mike Sebastian, a harder running and blocking back than Holder, replaced the lntuhcr captain vay In ' the campaign, against Army, and successfully held the Job at right halfhack. Sebastian Is ono of those rare "plnch-rnnncrs" who can slosh orf the yardage when It Is most heeded. Some of the Put adherents think that If Mike had been given the ball In that celebrated goal-line drive of tho Panthers against Ohio State In tho Jatst minute of play, tho score lean deadlock would have been broken.
