Swimming activities in the north
west will Ret underway Saturday
night, January 31, when the Oregon
state swimming and diving champion
ships will be held in the Multnomah
Amateur Athletic club tank under the
auspices of the Winded M institu
tion. From the list ot entrants that
have signified their intention of en
tering the meet the first aquatic
championship event of the season
here promises to outclass any like
event held for some time. Competi
tion in the various events promises
ta be very keen, and from the time
which some of the entrants have been
doing the races in. some of the state
records are due for the well-known
drop.
The Multnomah Amateur Athletic
club star watermen and fair natators
who carried off the meet last year
may be in for a little stronger com
petition than they expect in the meet
this year. According to Jack Cody,
swimming instructor of the Winged
M institution, the club swimmers and
divers are in better condition than
they have ever been before. Rivalry
is keen among the club swimmers
and divers and they are training hard
in anticipation of the coming meet.
It tin Douglas to Start.
The state championship event will
give the local fans their first chance
to see Bus Douglas, a member of the
inter-allied and American expedition
ary forces swimming team, in action
since his return from France. Doug
las is expected to give Duke Walker,
present title holder for the 50-yard
dash, a close race over the short dis
tance. Locke "Brownie" Webster, captain
ot the Stanford university water polo
team, has decided to prolong his va
cation in this city until after the state
meet and will be entered in several of
the events. In the meet lust year
Webster carried off first honors in the
plunge for distance.
An entrant in the women's events
who will be watched with considera
ble interest is Ethel Knowles. whose
time for the sprint races ranks her
among the speediest women stars on
the Pacific coast. Miss Knowles is
expected to break into the champion
ship class at the coming meet.
Titleholders to Compete.
Two ot the titleholders of last
year's meet, O. J. Hosford and Myron
Milsey. will compete again this year.
Hosford is a distance man and car
ried oft the honors in the 500 and 1!00
last year, while Wilsey took first place
in the 100-yard dash. Wilsey when
he is in condition is a hard man to
beat in the sprints.
Happy Kuehn, junior national div
ing champion, will enter in the men's
diving events. Earl Smead, Don
Stryker and "Red" Willmot are other
entrants who will compete against
Kuehn on the springboard.
Mrs. Constance Dressier, holder of
several Pacific coast and Northwest
titles and former national women's
diving champion, will enter the wom
en's fancy diving to defend her title
of Oregon state champion, which she

OREGON AGRICULTURAL, COL
LEGE. Corvallis, Jan. 24. (Special.)
Intramural basketball at Corvallis has
attracted considerable interest the last
two weeks. More than 40 teams have
been playing each week, from 8 to 12
playing every night between 6 and 8
o'clock. Some of the fraternities have
even brought up jazz bands to help
out in the rooting section. The Omega
Upsilon local fraternity has had its
band on hand for the first two games
and won both.
The entire series will cover seven
weeks, two of which have already
passed. Plaques will be given for the
organization winning the champion
ship in the three different divisions,
national fraternities, local fraternities
and independent teams.
These various winners will ' then
play a triangular tournament, and the
winner will be declared inter-organization
champion and will receive a
silver loving cup.
An effort will be made to schedule
a game with the fraternity team from
University of Chicago, which plans
to make a tour of the coast. If possi
ble, the inter-organization champion
team will be determined in time to
meet the Chicago men.

Some time ago we expressed our views in

ITHACA, Jan. 24. The first indoor
track meet to be staged in the new
Cornell university drill hall will take
place in March between Cornell and
the University of Michigan. Indoor
dual meets between these two uni
versities were frequent in pre-war
days, but owing to the limited facili
ties here they have almost invariably
taken place at Ann Arbor.
This year's meet, however, marks
the change In the former rule and
points another advance for Cornell in
the college athletic world. The exact
date for the big indoor carnival has
not been decided upon, but it probably
will be held during the third week of
March.
The exceedingly large floor space of
the drill hall presents an opportunity
to hold every event on the regular in
, , . . . . -
ooor usi. a siraigniaway or uu yarns
s possible, and a circular track of
a quarter of a mile in length will be
constructed in the immense inclosure.
The large 1919-1920 registration and
the undergraduate interest which has
been manifested in both track and
cross-country speaks well for the
prospects of a successful team. The
indoor meet should prove to be one of
the biggest attractions of the spring
season. Reports from Ann Arbor show
that a formidable team wfll represent
Michigan, and the coming meet should
Indicate the probable strength of the
two teams for the annual lntercolle
giates in June.

Of playing checkers.

And doth with strategy abound.
That none Its depths can ever sound
So deep Is checkers.
Many great battles have been fought.

That rivals e'en the games ot chess.

Roth Figures in -Many Deals.
NEW YORK. Jan. 24. Bobby Roth
has been a factor in several deals
during his career on the diamond. In
1915 he was with the Chicago White
Sox. who traded him ta Cleveland
along with Ed Klepfer and Larry
Chappelle, for Joe Jackson. Before
last season began the Clevelands
traded him to the Philadelphia Ath
letics for Larry Gardner, Elmer
Myers and Charles Jamieson. Last
June the Athletics traded him and
Maurice Shannon to the Red Sox for
Jack Barry and Amos Strunk. Now
Boston sends both Roth and Shannon
to Washington.
SATURDAY NIGHT.

ITHACA IS SEEKING COUGH
FOOTBALL BODY COXSIDIiKS
CHOICE OF SftXTOR.
Question of Engaging 'Outside Tal
ent Problem Tor Ruling Powers
to Pa.ES Judgment On.
ITHACA. X. T.. Jan. 24. Now that
the Cornell football schedule for the
next fall lias been announced, specu
lation as to the coaching; Bystem for
next year is increasing, not only
among; the undergraduates but among
the alumni as well.
The football committee of the ath
letlc council, of which Professor W.
W. Rowlee is chairman, is at work
on the coaching problem now, and
it is learned that many prospective
coaches are under consideration. So
far, however, no decision has been
reached, though some announcement
may be expected within a fortnight.
A committee of football alumni
composed of Clinton K. "Wyckoff, 'S6;
Thomas F. Fennell. '97; Raymond D.
Starbuck. '01; Congressman Daniel
A. Reed, '98 and James J. Munns, '14
is co-operating with the council's
committee.
Broadly speaking, the issue in
volved is whether a man who has
learned his football at some other
university and has proved his capac
ity as a successful coach shall be
chosen. Until Al Sharp came here
in 1912, football coaching had been
In charge of Cornelllans since 1898
when Percy Haughton coached here.
If it is decided to name a Cornel
man head coach, the consensus
opinion here anol among alumni
that that man should be Ray Van
Orman. coach of Cornell ends fo
the last 12 years, and in his specialty
recognized as a very capable man
In view of the fact that Cornell
must begin at the bottom and re
build her football structure, the
schedule is regarded by the under
graduates as hard enough. In gen
eral, it is received with satisfaction
Regret is expressed that Penn Stat
is not to play here next fall, but the
management found it impossible to
schedule State on a satisfactory date
The aim this year is to build up
gradually, taking on less difficul
opponents first. New games are
those with Rochester, St. Bonaven
ture. Union. Rutgers and Columbia.
Teams on last fall's schedule to b
played again next year are Colgate
Dartmouth and Pennsylvania.
ROUGH TALK
IS
BARRED
Only Gentlemanly Arguments to Be
Permitted With Umpires.
CHICAGO, Jan. 24. Baseball play
ers in the American association win
be allowed to argue in a "gentleman
ly" manner with umpires next seaso
when they believe close decisions hav
been given against them, but the us
of profanity will be stamped out, the
club owners decided today.
President Hlckey said the players
would be let off with warnings o
their first offense, but If they persist
ed in using objectionable language 1
arguments with umpires, drastic ac
tion in the form of heavy lines would
be taken.
"We have decided that all 'rough
work and profane talk must b
stopped," he said.
Gleason Ha Picturesque Career.
A year ago William (Kid) Gleaso
was made manager of the Chlcag
American league team, succeedin
Clarence Rowland. He made good by
winning the championship of h
league. But he failed to land th
world's championship. Gleason is
old figure on the diamond. Over 30
years ago he entered the big league
with hardly one year's experience in
the minors. He began as a pitcher
for the .Philadelphia team in 1888.
and for eight years, nearly the life
time of a ball player, continued to
pitch. In 1893, while a member of
the Baltimore team, he became a sec
ond baseman and one of the best in
the country. At this position he also
spent a decade. Now, at his first at
tempt at managing a team, he has
been a success. He is surely one
grand little figure in baseball.
Akron to Train at Hot Springs.
AKRON, O., Jan. 24. Akron, after
taking on the airs of a. real baseball
town by Joining the International
league, has further shown the flights
of Its ambition by selecting Hot
Springs as the training camp for Its
team. The Akrons will get Into the
springs about the time the Pirates
leave for the Journey homeward. But
there will be a little time left for ex
hibition games between tlis, two
teams.
L
TEIIS IMPENDING
National Association to Meet
February 6 in New York.
RULES TO BE REVISED
Scoring Methods Will Be Altered
and "Lore" and "Deoce"
Phraseology Dropped.
NEW YORK, Jan. 14. A conference
which may result in radical changes
in American tennis rules will be held
in this city on February 6 in connec
tion with the annual meeting of the
United States National Lawn Temnis
association. Revision of the playing
rules, adoption of a new plan of or
ganization and voting power for the
association and approval of a new
yste-m of competition for the national
oubles championship are among the
more Important matters to oe con-
idered.
In recommending a new code of
ules. the committee which included
Wallis Merrihew. Richard N. Will-
ams 2d, Heals c. wrignt, ADranam
Bassrord, Jr., Edward C. Conlin. Sam
el Hardy and Watson ILL Washburn
reported conclusions reached after
months of study. The changes in
volve only a few rules, one being the
Ixth, relating to footfaults. This
III be altered to read: "Before
ommencing to serve, the server shall
land with both feet at rest behind.
e., further from the net than the
aseline and within the limits of the
center mark and the sideline. Both
feet shall be kept behind the base-
ine until the racket strikes the ball."
Points to Be Called.
The suggested method of scoring
liminates the use of "15-30." "love."
'deuce" and similar terms which have
ong been a part of the phraseology of
the game, and counts on a point basts.
1, 2, 3. etc. If the server wins the
irst point, it Is called "one-in." If
he receiver wins the first point. It
is called "one-out." It the server
has won three points and the receiver
one. It is called "three-one" and so
on until either player has won four
points. If one player has four points
and the other three points, the score
is called "three-four" or "four-three,"
as the case may be. and the game Is
scored for the player who first there
after gains a lead of two points.
In the new system of handicaps.
points are allotted to the players, t
be added to the points scored. At
the end of a set the allotted points are
added to those scored, and the player
with the larger total wins the set.
regardless of the games won or lost.
The constitutional amendments
change the voting system by appor
tioning votes to clubs on the basis of
their membership, instead of giving
one vote to each club, as at present.
Dues are determined in the same ratio
so that a club pays dues and votes
entirely on the basis of its numerical
strength. Clubs in which tennis Is
fostered only in connection with other
sports, have their votes limited, so
that large athletic associations or
country clubs would not be permitted
votes out of proportion to their tennis
membership.
Sections to Re Chartered..
Sectional associations will hereafter
be chartered by the national associa
tion and, will furnish the medium
through which clubs In their terri
tory become affiliated with the na
tional body. A club in the western
or California sections, to which these
proposals will first apply, will join
Its city association, which Is a mem
ber of the sectional, the sectional in
turn being a member of the U. b. N.
T. A. Othej- sections which wish to
proceed on this plan of organization
may apply to the annual meeting for
charter.
The new plan for doubles will per
mit the entry of teams of estab
lished class, without qualification,
through a sectional championship. In
the past entry had been limited to the
winners of sectional events. Such
teams, under the proposed arrange
ments, will also be eligible for the
national and their railroad fare from
their section to the national will be
paid by the U. S. X. L. T. A. It is
believed that this method will permit
more uniform development of doubles
competition throughout the country.
in me call ror the meeting the re
ports of 30 committees are scheduled.
These deal with all aspects of the
game, from Its promotion among
young players to a challenge for the
Davis cup.

The twins recently arrived In tnia
flection from the west, where they
gained much fame in back and braa&t
stroke swimming. Although in compe
tition out a short time Eleanor at
tracted the attention of the water ex
perts on December 11. 191S, when she
took part in the 160 yards back etroke
championship and won In tbe faat
time of 2 minute and IS second.

Last year Eleanor tn tiefendttng- ner
championship laurels in ihe 200-yard

the Columbus A. C of Columbus, Ohio,
besides retaining her title, bettered
her former world's mark of S:16 4-5

Eleanor, who carried off the third
prize. Ruth is also bolder of the 100
yards junior tndoor brea-st stroke
