Shortstop Crawford of "the Varsity
baseball team and'4 Lloyd Turpln, the
crack freshman sprinter from Lowell
High School, are dropped.
Crawford was beyond a doubt the
strongest man on the Varsity' team.
Coach Swindells says that The Stanford
shortstop. Is Jlhe greatest player of his
position that he has ever seen among
amaMurs. Added to his work on the
Infield. Crawford ! one of the team's
heaviest strikers, standing third on bat-
ftna average.
The shortstop position wl be filled by
Williams, the promising freshman from
Multnomah Club.
Turpln, who was relied an by Stan
ford to take either first or second piaoe
In the 100-yard dash of the Intercol
legiate meet, has covered his distance
In a shade under 10 1-8 seconds this year.

A great deal of Indignation was ex
pressed today by the students when It
was found that Crawford's professors
had Interceded with the scholarship
committee on his behalf but that body
hid sternly refused to allow the short-
wop a chance to take re-examination
on the work In which he was deficient.
Thirty-five were warned to brace up
in their work. Of those dropped one
was from the geology department, three

SHALL HARVARD
DROP FOOTBALL?
Intense Agitation Prevails on the
Crimson Campos
The latest contribution to the active
output of football sensations, that the
Harvard faculty has put It up to the
Harvard athleUo committee to decide
whether football as an Intercollegiate
sport should be dropped, does not alarm
Harvard men here who favor footbaV
and one who does not favor Its continu
ance cannot be found with a searoh
warrant. Aiiy Idea of cutUng football
out of the athletic curriculum la char
acterised as "nonsense." It la pointed
out that on the athletic committee,
which is said to have the question on
the fate of football under consideration.
Is too strong an array of those who are
enthusiastic over the game to permit of
Its enforced demise at Harvard. Evert
J. Wendell, whose opinion carries weight
with Harvard men, bad the following to
say on the subject yesterday:
"I have heard nothing of any step
being taken at Harvard to abolish In
tercollegiate football, and I fancy It Is
only , a rumor, started by Prof. Hollis'
recent article suggesting that the Har
vard-Yale game be dropped.
"While having much regard for Prof.
Hollis, 1 did not agree with the general
sentiment of the article, and consider it
would be a great misfortune to drop
football, and especially the Yale game.
I do not believe it has been considered
seriously and hope It will not be. Tho
Yale game Is the most Important In our
schedule, and I know no Harvard gradu
ate who does not want It to continue.
If the game has features which need
change In the rules, talk of that If you
like, but never think of giving up the
Yale game."

"This fall I made a change In the usual

nothing better could be uned for catarrh

So I gave them to the children and
