Bynum Gymnasium MM(TP THE DAILY CUBSWILLHAVE DANGEROUS CLUB ENTERM RACE 3Ianager Hornsby Has Rookie Infield, Strong Outfield, and Bolstered Pitching Staff. With two rookies in the in field, a former Brave in the out field and a former Cardinal heading the pitching staff, the Chicago Cubs are doped to land the third place berth in the Na tional League. The Cubs are one of the most improved teams in the league and will cause plenty of trouble before the season closes. Young Infield Manager Rogers Hornsby will have anything but a veteran in field. The Rajah is enthusiasti cally benching himself in favor of Bill Herman, the twenty-two year old lad, who was obtained from Louisville last fall and fin ished the season with a .327 bat ting average and a fielding mark of .937 at second base. He has also benched the veteran third jsacker, Lester Bell, replacing him with Stanley Hack, a .352 hitter with Sacramento last year. The remaining infield posts will be filled by Charlie Grimm, thirty two years old, but who can still move around first with lots of speed, and Elwood English, reg ular shortstop, who hit .314 and fielded .964 in 1931. A second infield for relief work is com posed of Harry Taylor, first base; Clarence Blair, second base ; Bill Jurges, shortstop ; and Lester Bell, third base. Outfield Lineup In the outfield Lance Rich burg, heavy batsman obtained from the Braves, will fill the gap vacated by Hack Wilson, now with the Dodgers. Riggs Ste phenson, who has fully recovered from his broken leg of last year, and Kiki Cuyler, leading base stealer of the league, are cer tain starters in the outer gar dens. No change is expected in the catching department. Gabby Hartnett has forgotten about his sore arm and is pegging second in great form. He will be assist ed by Ral Hemsley and Zach Taylor. ' Pitching Staff Burleigh Grimes, spitball pitcher of many campaigns and one of the leading hurlers of the champion Cardinals last year, is probably the greatest improve ment made on the Chicago team. Lyle Tinnings, who boasted a record of twenty-four wins against two losses for Des Moines of the Western Loop last year, should also add consider able strength to the somewhat weak pitching staff. Ed Baecht and Lon Warneke, with a year's experience behind them will be finished hurlers while, Pat Ma lone, Guy Bush, Charles Root, and Bob Smith will be the out standing flingers back from the past Chicago team. The fight and pep of the Cubs will be a big factor in deciding the outcome of the flag chase. Grimes, well known as a battler will add to the fight and winning desire of Manager Hornsby, Cuyler, and Grimm; while Hart nett, known as a pepper box, and the two rookie infielders should put the necessary pep in the Cub machine. BASEBALL RESULTS: Virginia 5, Carolina 4. TAR HEEL PROFESSOR CALLS TAX ON FOOTBALL 'GRAVEJfflSTAKE' Action by Illinois Legislature Considered Unfair to Col lege Sports. (Big Ten News Service) Evanston, 111., April 8. "It was a grave mistake on the part of the politicians," said Profes sor O. F. Long, director of the faculty committee on intercol-, legiate athletics at Northwestern University, in speaking about the pending tax on sports now be fore the legislature of the na tion. "It will necessitate either a rise in admission prices or an arrangement by which the tax can be figured in the cost of the tickets." Northwestern stands to con tribute a large sum to help bal ance the national budget if the proposed tax of ten per cent on athletic contests is passed. In the better years, Northwestern has taken in as much as one mil lion dollars during the football season. "It is grossly unfair to college sports," continued Professor Long. "College athletics are not run for profit. The major sports, football and basketball, support the minor sports. If this bill be comes a law, the physical train ing department and intramural athletics will suffer greatly. "Northwestern as well as oth er colleges, donates large sums of money obtained from charity football games; these donations simply whetted the appetites of the politicians. If the taxes are levied, payments on the stadium will not be made and the minor sports will suffer." Women Energetic But Lack Plugging Of Male Scholars j "Although a woman as a stu dent will apply herself more quickly to her work than a man, she is impulsive and after hav ing put her whole being into her studies for a short time, will be easily diverted by any new sub ject that attracts her attention. This statement was made by Dr. Walter B. Greenway, president of Beaver College. In contrast to the woman stu dent, who takes her work seri ously and conscientiously, Dr. Greenway depicts the man as pa tient and persevering. It is these qualities of endurance that makes the man as a student ca pable of comparing favorably with the more energetic female. "As far as the student in gen eral is concerned, the student of today is just as good as the schol ar of twenty years ago, is doing more good, and has more oppor tunities. Those adults who be lieve that the present generation is going to the dogs, cast a poor reflection upon themselves and their youth, in that way they have set the example for their children to follow. Not so long ago, the youth of the day was ex pected to be seen and not heard ; today they are seen and expect ed to be heard from."

PHI DELTA THETA TAKES EASY WIN .Xhi Psi and Phi Delta Theta j took easy wins in the fraternity j league of intramural tennis yes terday while Everett defeated Best House and Old East forfeit ed to Swain Hall in the dormi tory league. Two matches were called off on account of rain. Atwood and Reynolds of Chi Psi had an easy time in winning from the A. T. O. team, taking both singles matches. D. K. E. lost to Phi Delta Theta 2-0. Rain forced the games be tween New Dorms and Lewis and between Aycock and Mangum to be called off after two matches had been played in each. HARVARD COACH DESIRES FEWER OLYMPIC TRIALS By College News Service Cambridge, Mass., April 6. Eddie Farrell, track and field coach at Harvard, last week pro posed that outstanding amateur sport stars be placed on the American Olympic team without the formality of tryouts. Coach Farrell's idea would not eliminate the pre-Olympic trials entirely, however, but would concede places to such men as Ben Eastman of Stanford, who has just broken the world's rec ord for the 440, and Frank Wy koff , dash expert of the Univer sity of Southern California, on the basis of their past perform ances. "This would eliminate the pos sibility of those frequent 'breaks,' which sometimes pre vent an outstanding athlete from qualifying during the tryouts," the Harvard mentor pointed out. According to his plan, one star in each department would be chosen as the leader of an event, while others would be se lected by tryouts. While Coach Farrell's idea was looked upon with approval in in tercollegiate sport circles, plans for the Olympic tryouts have so far progressed that a change in the program at this late date might cause undue confusion, ac cording to observers who were doubtful that it could be put into effect. Lass Seeks Advance Dope On University (Big Ten News Service) Some may say that' the young er generation, is not serious- minded, but here's one proof that it looks toward the future. Dean J. B. Edmonson of the University of Michigan educa tion schoorhas received a letter from a twelve-year-old grade school girl asking for a catalog of the school. The neatly written request says, "It is quite early for me to worry over this, but I have heard two teachers talk about the pro fession, and think I would like that kind of work. I would like to attend a junior college, and then I want to attend the univer sity." Dean Edmonson acknowledged the letter and sent her an an nouncement of the school. Fourteen in Infirmary J. D. Winslow, E. S. Lupton, W. W. Johnson, L. C. Coble, H. C. Allison, George Steele; J. A. McGlinn, Jr., James T. Cordon, A. O. Carraway, M. S. Camp bell, Ralph Gardner, A. J. Ellis, Bloomfield Kendall, and Howard Vitz were confined to the in firmary yesterday.

In a far from exciting match yesterday the Carolina netmen defeated Wake Forest on the Deacon's home courts. Last year's claimants for the na tional collegiate tennis cham pionship had little difficulty in winning every match. Bryan Grant regular number one man was unable to partici pate in the match, and his run ning mate Wilmer Hines had some trouble in subduing Ver non, Deacon ace. Except for this one hard match, and one deuce set which Dixon won, the scores were lopsidedly in favor of the Tar Heels. Following is the summary of the play: - Singles Hines (C) defeated Vernon (WF) 6-4, 7-9, 6-1; Wright (C) defeated Fletcher (WF) 6-3, 6-1; Shuford (C) defeated Gra ham (WF) 6-0, 6-1; Abels (C) defeated Bryan (WF) 6-2, 6-0; Dillard (C) defeated Bruton (WF) 6-2, 6-0; Dixon (C) de feated Hutchins (WF) 8-6, 6-3.
