College Sport for Students.

When the Harvard c-ew was weak
encd because some of the best oarsmen
had broken elementary rules of college
self-resPect, there was a general sigh OF
hope for American amateur athletics
Therefore, the faculties were complai-
Eant and the students were out to win.
Two and two made four in that con
nectiOn as in most others. Students
were commissioned to represent their
schools who represented it discredita-
bly, in everything save sport, who were
uollards or shirks in their studies. who
put to shame the very principle of the
amateur in being virtually supported
by contributions from feIlow-students.
President Eliot undoubtedly put stiff
cning into the backbone or many a
faculty in many a college less inde-
pendent financially.
Now comes the advisory board at
the University of Pennsylvania and
turns A deaf ear to the coach. trainer,
corps of grad" advisers, and every
one else, with a decision that the
athlete shall actually pass in his
studies or not play. The rule had ex-
isted in other years; the trouble was
that now it was really being applied
But the great step, and probably the
finest example. is offered from Chicago.
The University which borders Wash
sngton Park in that city has recently
disqus iifed ten of the best football
players in the squad and notified as
many others that they are IN immi-
rent danger of the same punishment
af their conditions are not removed.
A great deal was accomplished for
che good of American college athletics
when a limit was enforced on the mum

his school. More will he done when the
Dstcnsiblc amateur OF the winter Is in
fact prevented from playing for money
I'm summer. But the faculties will 90
still further toward infusing the true
spirit of sport among gentlemen
when they require from the student
who would represent his school pro.
1iciency in studies. In that day in
tcrcollegiate contests viii regain some
what their old character as contest,
between students who have entered In,

gradual liquidation Of the country's

France, nearly four decades ago, and
as so great that the power much 10
increase it with safety seems reason
isbly doubtful.
Measured by the old aphorism that
IN peace one should prepare for war,

peace with the world. Her manufae-
turrs are, generally speaking, flourish
ing. Her exports, already enormous,

AND what Germany needs now is
Reace-years of peace.
y proposal TO eXtinguish a con
srable portion Of the debt by in

seeing. AT present an enormous per
Sentage of the national revenue is alb
borbed in interest charges. These, TO
