COLLEGE SPORTS ON COLLEGE GROUNDS.

COLLEGE SPORTS on COLLEGE GROUNDS.
An especially cOmmcndablc feature OF the ath-
lctc agreement between Yale and Harvard Is
the provision requiring all contests except boat
races to take place on college grounds. This Is
a step which has been ZeaOusly advocated for
several years by many graduates, the sincerity
Of whose interest in college sports is shown by
their efforts to eradicate the evils which they
have developed and which have threatened to
bring them into general disrcpute 1t will prob
ably do more than any other single regulation
could do to exclude professionalism check IRA
tional excitement and restore the wholesome
spirit Of simple college rivalry In the athletic
contests of Yale and Harvard; while under the
influence of their example others will almost
inevitably adopt the same policy. The Tribune
has repeatedly said that college grounds were
the right places for college sports, and we heart
lily gratulate the men who have brought
long negotiation to n satisfactory conclusion
upon this article Of their agreement
The restricting OF college sports to college
towns has been opposed in some quarters on the
plea that it would largely diminish gate receipts.
No doubt 1t will have that consequence. and 1t
will be a very good thing, in our opinion. The
present scale of expenditure may be such as to
require the proceeds of football game in
NcwYork attended by 10000 or 10000 persons.
but if that is the fact it furnishes good
reason for cutting down expenses. not for keep
ing up the revenue II is one Of the evils Of the
present system Of management that 1t is exceed
ingy extravagant Such lavish outlay for the
maintenance of athletic teams is not essential
