lose- proper proportion in the col
let? athletic scheme of things.
Ills o New.
The ills now under diagnuMs are
not new. They were strejweu at
length a year ago in the Carnegie
foundation report. They have been
pronounced serious enough by th
examining physicians 1n annual ses
sion in New York, to -warrant some
prompt corrective measures.
Chief among these, as developed
by the consultation of( football
coaching experts and officials with
in the pat two days, are:
1 Abolition of spring practice
and limitation of fall practice for
college football squads.
2 Active and immediate steps to
curb the growing pains of subsidiz
ing and recruiting.
3 Less emphasis on gate re
ceipts, less prominence to the
coaches' control of the play and
less eommereiu? Influence in the
make-up of schedules.
Spring Training Hit,
Salent among the steps already
taken to bring tho gam back to
normal is a dofinitti- .mow -Anuti
lending eastern colleges and uni
X. vers! ties to abolich altogether their
programs of spring training. This
proposal, made by Major Philip 11.
Flaming, retiring graduate man
ager of athUics at West Point, has
been approved wholeheartedly by
a group of nearly a score of ey.st
ern institutions, already linked to
gether in the "Association for the
Selection of KntKcrn Koothall Of
ficials." The npproval voted, while not
entirely binding on all the college
involved, was regarded today as
one of the most important steps
yet taken toward the elimination
of over-emphasis. It is expected
to have far-reaching effect, not
only among those involved, but
ci."wherc in the country.
The American Football Coaches'
association, after somewhat stormy
session, adopted resolutions pre
sented by W. W. Koper. retired
Princeton coach, and putting the
t body on record as opposed to "com-
pulsory spring practices" or the
start of "organized fall practice'
prior-to September 15.

Upon reading Wild Life Lines by
James McCool in the Morning Ore
goniaii yesterday and noticing that
the writer indicated the possibility
of beaver dams in the tributaries
and upper reaches of the river as
a menace to the. progress of ffsh.
lioy I'arr, deputy game warden,
gave information to this column to
day that he knows of no dam in the
coujnty that has blocked any
stream. There are quite a number
of streams in the county and there
are some dams, the officer ald,
but he knows of none doing dam
age. He looks upon them as a
benefit and cited a number of
eases in which anglers found fish
ing better in the pools behind the
low barriers of wood and brush.
Like T. K. Merrill, who recently
wrote a letter on heaver dnms.
Deputy Parr scoffed the Idea that
the little animals were able to dam
the river In tile lower part, as in
dicated by a local correspondent
whose game lines appear frequent
ly in a Portland paper. There in
no open season on beavers, the of
ficer states and there are believed
to be quite a number in the county.
Duck hunting attracted a score
or so of hunters to the llogue river
yesterday and a fairly good num
ber of birds were killed. James
Koss killed three and upon pick
ing one up, found that it had fallen
on a stick in such manner that Its
body was entirely pierced by the
wood. Most of the ducks were fly
ing high and it took good shoot
ing to bring them to earth. No
geese wero reported seen.
Sick In the neighboring city of
Klamath Falls, the condition of
Harry Poole, member of the state
game commission, was reported
yesterday to be showing Improve
ment. Mr. Poole sustained injuries
when a heavy car he was driving
was wrecked on Oreenspring moun
tain road Christmas night. . Mr.
Poole In one of the most active
members of the game commission
and is seriously behind the move
ment to close the Rogue river to
commercial fishing. At a recent
commission meeting ho had quite
a wordy tiff with Roderick Mac
leay, commercial canner, when
river closing was discussed.
Indications that there were more
deer hunters in Oregon this year
than the past, figures recently re
leased by Harvey L. Mo-re land, state
game warden. how there were 20,
000 hunting licenses i.sued during
the month or September alone. The

Among tho funniest lines I've
ever heard, or heard of in golf,
these occur:
Herb Graff is, at the last Ameri
can open championship at Mini
kahda which started on the hot
test day I recall In connection
with golf thus described the ap
pearance of Cyril JumcH Hastings
Tolley, the 220-pound Englishman,
at the end of the first round:
"Cyril Tolley looked like an Ice
man who had carried n 100 pounds
of Ice up five flights of stairs and
found the lady of the houso not
in."
On another extremely warm
day, at Worcester, Hobby Jones
and Willie Mucfarlane were start
ing their second play-off, about
2:30 o'clock In the aflernoon.
"They say It's 10fl In the shade,"
said Hobby ns the pair left the
i first tee.
I "Fortunately we don't have to
!say In the shade much," said Wil
lie, philosophically.
J "That's tho vilest bunker I ever
i tasted." said Irvfn Cobb, after
blasting and failing to duck.
I think It was Ring Lardner,
or Rube Goldberg, or Irvfn Cobb,
or somebody, who undoubtedly
gave this explanation of the main
(defect in his golfing method:
! "I stand too near the hall after
hit it."
This one goes back 40 years to
tho time Andrew Kirnldy was

In searching Shires, the officers
said, they found a pair of brass

explain tho brass knuckles. "I Just

"Aren't ye washln' your hands,

The most whimsical reaction I
ever knew of on a golf course was
strictly pantomimic.
There was a prominent member
of a New Orleans club not many
years ago who employed this sys-J

displeased him with which, In u
word, he messed up shorts which '
ho felt he should have produced
properly.
HIh home course was sparsely

way of thinking, he would hand
the club to his caddy with the
injunction not to put It back In

"Jtist carry that ono a while,'
he would say.
And he would play along, per
haps four or five holes, until ho

j he would beckon the caddy, take
the club from him, and, quite dis
j passionately, would wrap it around

The caddy knew belter than to
