they had not to devote most of their
time to the exercises which they should
have learned in the school?
Another common belief is the idea
that the military training in schools
has to be taught by a drillmaster or
army officer. That is simply laugh
able. Any physical Instructor can do
it; and he ought to pass an examina-
ton to obtain a certificate of ability to
teach military training for schools in
strict accordance with the United
States infantry drill regulations. Mil
itary training in schools is only
branch Of physical training. and phys
steal training is only one of the sub
jects any male teacher must be able
to teach.
Only uniform system Of military
training in schools is of value. We
have to look for standard to get uni
fOrmity, and the only standard is the
regular army Of the United States.
Therefore, it is absolutely necessary
that We follow strictly the commands
and exercises of the army to enable the
young fellow from New York, New Or
leans, San Francisco and Chicago, IN
case of emergency, to understand each
and every command, and to execute il
with absolutely identical movements.
While these drills should be made
compulsory throughout the United
States, membership in cadet corps for
schoolboys should be encouraged. Here
d boy carries a rifle and wears uni
form. The program of cadet corps
combines above exercises with the ex-
ercises of the Manual of Arms, the
combat and rifle-shoOting practices.
Those schools that begin the military
training without arms this season
seanson would have their boys excel
lently trained for the outside work of
the cadet corps, which begins in
spring. The cadets wear their uni
forms only during practicing time.
The instruction of a cadet corps
ought to be placed in the hands of Of
ficers or non-commissioned officers of
the National Guard, who in turn ought
to be paid an -dequate salary for their
service.
Some time ago | expressed the
necessity of artillery cadet corps for
high schools and colleges, say bat
teryof four pieces with all the neces-
sary instruction. l was laughed at,
but still l insist that the idea is very
practical, and in view of the teaching
of the present war-that artillery is
again the most important brand of
arm-we should not hesitate in estab-
fishing such corps. We have hun
dreds of patriotic persons who would
iefray the costs for such for the diff
ferent centers of education

BIKE RIVALS CLASH
AT POINT BREEZE
Two ex-Champions, Walthour
and Wiley With Madonna
and Sears in 5O-Mile Race.

Another race card has been arranged
by Manager Roden for the motorpaced
and motorcycle fans at the Point Breeze
Park for Thursday night. The Philadel-
phia Derby American Middle Distance
Bike Championship series will be decided
in a So mile motorpaced race. The con-
testants Will be George Wiley, of Syra-
cuse, N. Y, the former world champion;
Bobby WalthOur, who needs no introduce
ton to the people of Philadelphia; George
Sears, of France, and Vincent Madonna
of Italy.
Madonna, the young italian riding at
the "drome" on Friday last, second to
Clarence Carman the champion is one
OF the most sensational racers that ever
came to this country, and only an acci-
dent to his bike prevented him from giving
Carman tighter rub for the race
Carman won the title from Wiley, who
is working hard to regain the laurels,
while Walthour is the one whom Wiley
beat for the title. This means that the
fans are going to witness one of the best
II not the best contests of the,year. Wal
thour when he rode here three weeks
ago was suffering from an injury to his
shoulder, but says he has regained his
speed.
In case of rain tomorrow evening the
race will be held on Friday evening.

In this frame Of mind and with Grover

however, must not be counted out Of the
race as 81. Louis has a habit Of playing
great ball on the home field and Hug
gins team may come back strong.
Lee Meadows, who has opposed Alex
ander three times this season without
getting away with a victory, will face the
Philly star. Meadows has twirled fine
ball against Moran's team In all but one
of hts starts and Huggins hopes to see
him upset the dope by defeating Alex
