sinccnrc salaries and cxtortionatc fees. That
pu1posc will be served if they can. by some
pcttifogging hocus porls. get the ease tangled

an adverse decision by the court would, they
think afford them chance TO retreat from

should take part In any intercollegiate con-
tests 4 NO student should take part in more
than one sport within the same year b. NO
football should be played until the rules are so

PRESIDENT ELIOT on ATHLETICS.

What President Eliot has to say about athletic
sports in colleges. in his report TO the Board Of
Overscers OF Harvard. is in the main wise and
discriminating. During the last few years attn
lctics have taken position almost OF pre-
eminence I'm most of the colleges. In the opinion
of many, the authorities of the great col
legcs ought to take united and official no.
tice Of the subject. Whether such a step
would be feasible or not is open to question.
But in view Of certain evils that have been de-
veloped In the competitive intercollegiate games.
especially football, the subject is one that the
authorities of every college ought to consider
with care
President Eliot very properly draws n dlstinc-
ton between sports. such as track athletics. In
which many students take part. and the highly
competitive sports that give rise To exciting inter-
collegiate contests. namely boat-raclng, baseball.
and football. The former are exceedingly useful.
and are attended with almost no evil conse-
qucnces 1t Is around the latter class OF sports.
however, especially football. that the chief inter
est OF college students has centred during the
last few years. For this reason Or. Eliot de-
votes attention particularly to them. He hrst
notes the fact that these contests have come to

Mayor Schieren has shown exceedingly good
sense in his first exercise of the veto power Els.
pecially gratifying is it to have him frown upon
the scheme of certain Aldermen to provide
themselves with elaborate gold badges at the ex-
pense Of the taxpayers. 1t is greatly TO the
credit Of six members Of the board that they
refused to consent to this use OF the peoples
money, and we believe that some Of them would
have declined to accept the badges II the resolu-
ton adopted by their associates had not been
vetoed. To take 5000 out Of the city treasury for
such a purpos. as this would be an outrage
which the people would be justified in resentng
sharply. Nothing can be palmer than the fact
that the Aldermen have no use for badges, and
if they had they should feel obliged TO pay for
them out of their own pockets. The custom OF
providing them at public expense is bad in
heritance from Democratic rule. The people
voted for reform when they elected a Republican
Board Of Aldermen last fall, and they don't want
to see any more such exhibitions Of anti-reform.
