The Barre daily times. (Barre, Vt.) 1897-1959, 1911-03-18

The gymnasium in any institution ~
designed for the betterment OF the
physical condition of as many students
of the institution as possible; but in
the season when the gymnasium is most
needed basketball takes away those
privileges from the many and gives them
to the few. Those institutions which
care more for the well-being of all their
students realize the handicap it ID put
ting on them, and thus one by one they
are aboIshing the varsity basketball
team. 1t is different with other forms
of intercollegiate sport, because in the
conduct of most of them there are no
four wall limits.
AS for the statement OF Prof. Chase,
chairman OF the Tufts athletic advisory
board that varsity intercollegiate bas-
ketball in its developed form is scientific
dirty play" that is mere incident in
the objections. 1t is true that the game
permits dirty" playing, but that de-
ponds on the calibre Of the men partiei.
pating in the game II the players have
the sense Of the gentleman, they viii
not play a dirty" game, any more than
they will play dirty game in base
ball or football few muekers get
into intercollegiate basketball, as well
as into all sports. If Prof. Chase had
said. instead, that basketball as now
played is very rough, unnecessarily 50
he would have been correct; but that
too. is incidental to the main objection
to intercollegiate basketball, which was
stated above and which eventually viii
relegate the game to class and Other
intramural contests, as should be done il
the game is TO be played at all. These
intramural contests have the advantage

that they permit much larger number
OF players to participate.
Current Comment
Some Farm Figures.

Farm wages at the highest figures
known in As years are announced by
the agricultural department. The aver
age without board is given as s27 80 a
month during 1910, against 1888 20
years ago. But what OF farm prices
Bradstreet's index number for bread
stuffs in 1910 was around s0.l076 com.
pared with S00524 in 1896. Here was
an increase of 100 per cent in grain
prices during IA years, while the in
crease IN wages for 20 years was only
80 per cent Farm prices were con-
siderably higher in 1890, or 20 years
back. than in 1896, but making allow
ances for this It would appear that
farm prices have had a greater relative
increase than farm wages. Since last
year there has been a very substan-
tial decline in farm prices, which leaves
the increase from 1896 at Tl5 per cent,
on the index number for breadstutfs. +

Stimulated, in spite of the declaration
of the special insurance adjuster on the
two former occasions, it would seem like
reasonable precaution that a night
watchman or two be placed in the gran

patrol. All of MontpeIiers granite in

is comparatively easy The remaining

SOME PREcAUTIoNs NEoEssARY.


Another mysterious fire in Mont
pelier granite plant, coming closely after
the announcement by a special insurance
adjuster on two other equally as mys-
terious fires that the fires were not of
ineendiary origin, tends to confirm a
popular belief that they were. Within
a few weeks there have been three gran
tie plant fires in Montpelier, and in two
OF the instances the properties were con-
sumed or practically so, while in the
third instance great loss was averted
because of the more opportme time for
discovery of the blaze, 1t was said in
the former cases that the fires might
have been caused by defective electric
wiring, which, by the way, was denied
by the lighting companies; but that
cause was not possible in the fire OF
Thursday night because there were no
wires in that part where the flames
broke out. Moreover, there were nc
other known causes about the entire
plant which might have contributed tC
ignition of inhammable material. Hence
the suspicion develops that the fires, all
of them, were Intentionally set. That
suspicion being rather considerably sub.

ABoLIsHING BASKETBALL,

The action OF the Tufts college ath-
letic advisory board in dropping the
game of basketball from the list of
varsity sports viii arouse considerable
opposition, no doubt, as all such radical
moves in collegiate athletics do; but
there is much to be said in favor of
the action, and the same motives have
actuated several other well-known insti-
buttons in voting to abolish the game as
an intercollegiate sport. One of the chief
objections to the varsity basketball team
as at present conducted is the fact that
it usurps the physical training quarters
OF college for comparatively few
men, whereas the purpose of college ath.
letics should be the training of the
many. The varsity team Is made up Of
five players, and, after the early trying
out of candidates, the participants in
the game are limited to that number
and few substitutes, with perhaps a
scrub team, against which the varsity
may practice The hours when all the
students can use the gymnasium are,
therefore, given over, by necessity in
developing strong varsity team, to a
few men, while many more students,
perhaps a hundred times as many, are
excluded from the privileges of the gym
nasium.
This is not reasonable and is not
what the gymnasium was intended for

skanee Residents Progressive.

The farmers of Skanee last Saturday
night made preliminary arrangements
to have franchise granted them by
the freeholders Monday, April Bird, for
the purpose Of placing in a local tele-
phone line and also get connection with
the Baraga County Telephone Com
pany at L'Anse.
The settlers of this hustling commun-
ity have no connection with the outside
world, therefore are deprived of good
market and must drive eighteen miles
to L'Anse before they can get in touch
with the world at large. Years ago a
line ran to Arvon but with the closing
of the slate quarries the line was aban-
doned. The farmers have gone ahead
in the right direction and will also en-
deavor to have the new road, cut out
several years ago by Arvon and L'Anse
townships, made passable, thereby
making it possible for them to haul
good sized loads to market.
