SUMMER BASEBALL.
A rule which receives no popular
support after years of attempted en-
foreement,deserves a thorough looking
into and overhauling. Such is the con-
dition of the rule prohibiting summer
baseball, now on the statute books of
practically all of our larger univer-
sities.
A law lives only because the public
that it governs overwhelmingly favors
its enforcement. No human law can
prohibit, so we would not quarrel with
a rule ,which falls, but slightly short
of prohibition. But what is the con-
dition of the summer baseball rule?
We find that normal student players
feel no compunction in signing the el-
gibility slips, which are required by
the athletic associations, affirming that
they have never received reward for
summer baseball. We venture no es-
timate on the number of "ineligible"
players on the present Michigan base-
ball team, on past teams, or on the
teams, present and past, of other uin-
versities of this country, but we know
that they are many. Two years ago,
the Minnesota authorities undertook
a rigid examination of their players.
Practically, the entire team was dis-
qualified. Three years ago the Uni-
versity of Chicago conducted a ques-
tionaire among its baseball alumni.
The results were never -made public,
despite many requests and advance
promises. We all know and realize
that this "carelessness" is not .confin-
ed to the players. They are openly sup-
ported by the student bodies or winked.
These are the present results of the
summer baseball rule. The conditions
are 'certainly most dissatisfying, des-
pite the years of effort.
A COMPROMISE.
We should be slow to argue for the
admittance of real professionalism-
the players of organized baseball-into
college circles. We would not care to
go so far-at least at this time. How-
ever those who argue for the semi-

pro players-the hotel teams, city
league teams, independent organiza-
tions and commercial league teams-
have a stronged case.
The summer baseball rule, as it now
stands has been ineffective and we can
see no correction in sight, save aboli-
tion. We are sick of this deception-
it is nasty, it is not preventing profes-
sionalism. and it is anything but eth-
ical.
HOWEVER?
No matter how much, we dislike this
summer baseball rule and its results,
Michigan must use the greatest cau-
tion and tact in making changes. Mich-
igan stands alone in the athletic world,
not a member of the western intercol-
legiate and certainly not powerful
enough in the east to take revolution-
ary steps.
First, we had better have a confer-
ence with our eastern rivals and find ,
out what their temper is. At any rate,
we moust have assurances from Cor-
nell, Pennsylvania, Princeton and oth-
ers-and this is being done-that they
will continue relations with Michigan
under the looser, but honest system.
With affirmative replies, Michigan .
would be in a happy condition, to go
ahead and clean out her back yard.
The atmosphere, at present, is stifling.
