He said he also knows of a certain hotel waiter who was paid $5 a day by a gambler, for obtaining from the visiting manager the name of the pitcher who t(f perform for the visiting club that day. "Most of the betting is done in the pool rooms downtown," said Mr. Mitchell, "and I believe if the proprietors of these places do hot know who is going to pitch they will not be so keen to accept wagers. By withholding the name of the pitcher, I believe much the gambling will stop.

"If we desire to keep 4he sport pure, gambling must.be eradicated. The Chicago cj.ub Is to do all it possibly can to stop it Pres. William Vreck always has taken steps to keep it out of the ball park in Chicago, and I am going to attempt to keep the men in the pool rooms from betting by giving out the pitcher at the last "Gambling is not to creep into the game and rain it for the future fans and players if I can help it," Mitchell "and if there is the least suspicion of it on my team an investigation will be made and the man or men who are apprehended will not stay a minute."

A "DRY" TOAST I'd Flwhs) Hm aswfal gfitt mJty itawck' Walter Camp, of international sport- ing fame, and Z. G. Clevenger, director of athletics at the Kansas State Agricultural college, have written letters commending thf schedule of sports adopted by the Shawnee county High School Athletic association. Every pupil not physically unfit is required to participate in each of ten events. Attaining a certain standard of proficiency will entile him to a certain number of points.

The number of points to each pupil's credit will be totaled. The school will be ranked according to the average score of all its athlete. Small schools will therefore be on the same basis as large ones, and no school can hope to- win on the records of a few individual stars unless all the other contestants keep up the average. "Your proposed schedule is a step toward securing the participation of all students in games that bring physical development" said Mr. Camp in a letter to K.

Cecil Richmond, president of the Shawnee county high school league. "It Is a step toward remedying the greatest weakness in the American school athletic system." Clevenger was even more enthusiastic in approvfng the plan, commending particularly the choice of events as one that would secure the all-round development of participants. The contest includes the fifty -yard dash, the 100-yard dash, the running high Jump, the running broad jump, the standing broad jump, the one-mile walk, the twelve-pound shot put the pull-up jfchinning contest) the baseball distance throw and the baseball accuracy throw.
