PRESIDENT ELIOT FIRM.
Continued from First Page.)

cent in the opposing line; and. the hab-
itual violation of rules, if penalties be
escaped, is regarded by many as merely
amusing"
Of athletic sports in general Presi-
dent Eliot says that there is increasing
objection to their great eXaggeration:
There is now a series of competitive
games which covers the entire academ-
ic year; and the distraction of large
bodies of students from the proper
work of the university grows more in
tense and continuous year after year.
This unreasonable exaggeration Of sport
ana exercise has become serious draw
back also in secondary schools. Thus,
many of the schools fortunately situated
in the country permit pupils to be d.
verified almost entirely from the study of
natural history by their devotion to IL
series of competitive sports which COW
er the entire school year. In the col
lege and the scientific schools the after
moons Of many students during far the
greater part Of the year are devoted to
play, or to looking at the games which
the most expert athletes are playing
The range of elective selection among
the studies of the college is seriously
limited, because of the desire of stu
dents, and therefore of teachers, to
avoid appointments in the afternoons.
Such are some of the evils which at
tend the prevailing exaggeration of
athletic sports; but whenever the evils
consequent upon this exaggeration are
mentioned, it should also be mentioned
that the outdoor sports on the average
and in the mass do more good than
harm; for they promote vigorous ply
steal development and provide invalu-
able safeguards against effeminacy and
vice"
From the standpoint of higher edu-
cational administration one of the most
important topics treated by President
Eliot is that of the opportionment of
university expenditure AS a result of
careful and laborious research in the
field Of university expenditure during
the last ten years, he presents a table
classifying in each department of Har-
ward university and in the university
as whole, the total annual expendit-
ure for each academic year from 1923
to 10000 inclusive. The expenditures
are divided into the following groups:
l. Salaries for instruction including
retiring allowances.
2. Aids, including fellowships and
scholarships, exhibitions, loans and
prizes.
-a-,3. University library, salaries and all
expenses, including books and binding.
4. Museums. including the herbarium
and botanic garden.
5. Public buildings--not including DOR
understanding expenses excluding
such expenses for the library and mu-
seums.
6. Observatory and arboretum.
Z. All expenses not included in the
above groups
The table shows that in the univer-
sity as whole the expenditure for sal
aries for instruction was As per cent. of
the total expenditure for the year; the
expenditure for aids was per cent, for
the university library per cent, for
museums 5 per cent, for running ex-
penses of public buildings 7 per cent,
for the observatory and arboretum 6
per cent, and for all other purposes "a
per cent.

YESTERDAYS STOCK MARKET.
Greater Breadth and Variety Than fur
Weeks.

Weeks.
New York, Feb. 9.-There was a re-
vival of activity in to-day's stock mar
ket which brought the volume of trad
ing above the level of last Thursday.
There was greater breadth and variety
also in the dealings than for weeks.
There was a pause in the upward
movement after the opening squirt, but
after that there was no general reac-
ton until the final hour. The reaction
was somewhat emphasized by reports
that new proposals had been received
from Germany concerning the Vene-
zuelan settlement which threatened to
renew the whole question. The closing
was steady and generally only frac-
ton below the best. Commission houses
reported some increase in outside bust
ness, and some of the largest business
of the day came from houses with ex-
tensive wire connections in the east,
the middle west and the south. The
upward movement originated this
morning in the Gould stocks and in the
, bituminous coal carriers. The Gould
shares have had the benefit of an inf1u-
entail pool, which has carried on oper-
atoms in the various securities of the
group for some time past. Their spe-
cial activity on Saturday and to-day
was professedly based upon the active
measures taken to complete the Allan
| tic outlet for the Wabash system. In
the case Of the bituminous coal carriers
the motive for the buying was the set
tlement agreed upon at Indianapolis
between the miners and the operators
fixing a wage scale. Another wage set

statement the money market gave no
cause for repression of speculative ac-
tivity. Call loans fell below per cent.
in the late trading on the stock ex-

laggards in to-day's upward movement
of prices notably the Fries and the
United States Steel stocks. The hard

was fairly comprehensive and embrac-
