Two views are held among school
teachers and superintendents. as to
what shall be done with pupils that
fail to keep up. The old time teacher
was rather inclined to pass them
along. The student, it was argued.
would lose interest If compelled to
drop back into, another class. He had
probably got all that can be had out
or that grade or stage OF work He
will get more to let him go on than
to make him grind over the same
work again.
A few years ago theirs was q wide-
spread impression that good ath-
lete could slip along through almost
any college OF recent years, both
in colleges and High schools. there
seems to be a stricter feeling about
scholarship requirements for ath-
1etes.
That many Of the colleges are now
imposing severe tests was suggested
by the news reports or the past week,
to the effect that at Cornell univers-
1ty. Ia men have been dropped as
the result of the n1id-year exams =
Also 169 others were placed on pro-
baton and denied many PRIVILEGES

heart on being dropped back. Also

I'M proper clearance papers by swear
Ing to false naanafests and g4vi41e false
ports Of destination. thereby causing
the collectors OF the ports of various
cities IN the United States TO make

Inents are based on the alleged coal
ing and provisioning Of German war
ships, including the Elusive Karls-
rhue, Julian Hartridgey assistant u nit
ed States district attorney, who has
charge Of the case, said they charge
nothing more than a. violation of the

were operating In the Atlantic at the

as representing fairly accurately con-
