NO EXTRAVAGANCE AT BROWN.

Providence, R. l., May A-Colege athletics
have never been run in the eXtravagant manner at
Brown University which characterizes the sport at
many of the larger institutions. The faculty and
the graduate students. a large number OF whom
reside in Providence have endeavored in the last
few years place athletics at Brown upon high
ethical plane. In conformity with that aim a few
years ago an athletic association formed TO
take charge Of entire varsity athetics-that IS
all the sports college with which the college
name was distinctly identified, and not including
the class organizations. This association is COM
posed of five members of the faculty. four gradu-
ate students and three undergraduates. This
sociafion controls all the varsity athletics and
&c particularly responsible for baseball and foot
hall hut owing the lack OF funds, has not been
entirely financially responsible for the track ath
letics.
Under the administration of this association ath-
letics AT Brown have been conducted in such
manner that they have been practically self-sup-
norting In the period that this association has
had charge of athletics here the athletic field has
been removed from Lincoln Field, which is on
the college grounds, to the new Andrews Field,
more than a mile away from the colleges and in a
IocaTion rather difficult of access. While large and
aIepsnt grounds for the purpose are maintained
here The tarome has been considerably reduced
