SEATTLE, Wash.. July 2. (Spe
cial.) The Beavers won their weekly
same today. McCredie has finished
ahead in only three starts in the last
four weeks, and all of them have been
on Saturdays, so it must have been
on the cards for Portland to take the
6 -to -5 -victory.
Big Herman Piilette, the youngster
Just peddled to Detroit, tossed a eweet
game, and although the Braves out
hit the Mackmen by a large margin
Herm was the master in the pinches.
Loose work on the defense caused
the downfall of the locals, a balk by
Bob Geary with a man on third and
a wild pitch by Dailey under the
same circumstances gave the Beav
ers two of their six tallies.
Portland had a 5-to-l lead at one
etage of the joust, but the tribe bat
tled their way to a tie score. Bill
Stumpf was the lad who did It, his
long double in the eighth scoring two
runners and tieing the count. But
Marty Krug rapped a three-bagger to
left center in the ninth and Iailey
wild-pitched the winning run across.
Tomorrow the two clubs will play
the usual Sunday double-header, be
ginning at 2:30, with another double
bill carded for Monday. The score:

Committees Charged With Being
Lax In Enforcing Rules Re
lating to Standings.
BY WALTER CAMP.
(Copyright. li21. by Tho Orr-ironlan.)
NEW YORK. July 2. (Special.
The old storm cloud of amateur stand
ing as involved In summer baseball
is risin? above the college horizon
once more. There are charges made
that collegiate athletic boards of con
trol or committees have been lax of
late in enforcing rules relating to
th amateur standing of their men
Some writers have gone so far as lo
say that the college ballplayer who
has not taken money for exercising
his talent Is a rare bird, whether
these charges are true or hot, the
impression prevails generally that
many of the men who have Just fin
ished college sessions will be helping
out the old exchequer this summer.
that they have done It in the past and
that thy still may be seen on college
diamonds another year.
Rales Bar Participation,
If this proves to be the case, then
ccllege committees are grievously at
fault, for the present rules provide
that a man may not in any. way
directly or indirectly, receive money
for the display of his athletic ability
and still remain eligible for college
athletic competit'on.
Of late years the temptations to
college ballplayers have been strong.
To summer hotels and semi-profes
sional organizations a good college
player is a valuable asset. It is prob
ably true that many have succumbed.
One element to be counted with Is the
pride of the average youth in his ath
letic ability, which makes' It really
a compliment for him to be offered
money for the skill he has acquired.
Many a boy has been led into profes
sionallsm not because he needed the
money, but because he was pleased
over tne fact that somebody was
willing to pay him for his wares.
Money Qoestion Arsued.
There are scores of specious argu
ttients for permitting a boy to exer
cise nis talents and receive pay there
for. It is argued that If men receive
money for ability In other than ath
letic directions without loss of ama
teur standing, It is reasonable for
those whose ability lies in athletic
lines to receive pay for these. This
argument loses sight of the fact that
whatever a man receives monev for
doing makes him a professional in
that line. If he receives money for
athletics he becomes a professiona
athlete, Just as he becomes a profes
sional actor if he receives compen
sation for acting.
The question also has heen argued
unaer cover In the east recently
There is no question but that queer
complications would ensue if such
rule were put through, especially If
money-taking college athletes at
tempted to enter Amateur Athletic
union contests. For there is no defi
nition for a money-taking -amateur in
any or the various associations, ath
letlcs. tennis, golf or rowing.
Ihe college authorities can make
up their mindsi that the issue has
arisen once more, that It will' be
pushed and that It cannot be tossed
aside, especially in view of the charges
mat me present rules are not en
forced and are a dead letter.
