THE CORNELL CREWS TRIP ABROAD

~ ANSWER To THE LETTER WRITTEN Bf Pro
rrssoR Burt q WILDER.
To the T. litor OF The Tribune
Sir. Professor Burt G. Wilder. who has been con-
,....l with cornell University since its Inception
asks in The Tribune OF to-day, some pointed ques-
tions 49,
rhea. queries are primarily addressed to the
alumni OF the university. and as one OF the frsi
90 that now highly important body. 1t is pleasure
FOR me e. respond
I answer first that experience has taught us that
intercollegiate contests DO foster the general par
,i,r,,ion ~ students IN outdoor sports The rea-
en- az this is quite obvious II the contests OF skill
and strength are confined alone 70 the students OF
tho university there will not and cannot be that
rivalry for place which will be excited when there
Is to be a contest with another college or uh'eF-
sity.
Son1 fhie generous and active rivalry TO excel in
athletic sports must OF necessity induce many re-
strictons OF appetite which otherwise would be I'M
restrained and aside from the mere physlca CUT
ure which Is undergone the student who strives
for place must curb his appetites, many OF when
ar. unho,v and any OF which may be injurious TO
health
The third question which Or Wilder propounds.
VIZ. "Do N = occasional good effects upon the
character Of - few equal the contrary erect upon
the many. through frequent Attendance upon or
discussion OF overcXciting spectacles? Is basel en-
trely upon a false premise. The faculty ana Uus-
actcr AMI the average proficiency OF their students
bat go far as heard from no fault has been round
either by the faculty or by the parents that there
has been any bad effect upon the student boiy
bv reason Of frequent attendance upon or discus
sion Of overeXcltng spectacles. When such Ell
fccts have been shown u have been Injurious theh
We can consider the professors question
As to the question TO whether these athletic
contests attract any considerable number who
might otherwise 70 elsewhere the answer Is that
AS yet there has been no opportunity = decide Cor
nell has had few such contests win the larger UNI
Ntrstics Her supremacy on the water u 50 read
ilv conceded that the University OF pennsylvania
tn. only university which Will contest the claim
and that from spirit OF generous rivalry
than from any anticipation OF victory Inc base
bail team and the football team have only begun
to PLAY. and therefore few have entered Cornell
because OF its proficiency in these sports
Certainly sucn students would be very desirable
10 the university. Not ny reason OF their own in
alvidual proficiency. but because their excellence
i'm that REGARD would to induce the other AMI
less favored members OF the student body To re-
neved excrton and more earnest endeavor.
II is 10 be- hoped that every alumnus who can Will
strive to give something toward defraying the eX-
pense Of the proposed Henley regatta, and that
when II is finished even Professor Wilder will IN
wlrdly rejoice over the "Corneli.I yell yell, yell.
