Scholastic Military Competitions

The sporting editor of the New York Tribune decided
few DAYS ago that intercollegiate competitions of bat
teries of field artillery would be excellent way to
provide the United States with efficient artillery re-
serves and he outlined the thought very good
thought by the. way-to his readers as follows;
This splendid realization Of the meaning OF service
moves Us to propose scheme whereby the United States
might in time develop the intelligent and efficient
field artillery in the world. great many Of the col
Ieges now maintain batteries and IN some instances pat
talious of field artillery If competitions between the
universities in light artillery drill could be arranged on
the same magnitude intercollegiate footoaI games
there would be interest worked up IN this oranc
of higher sport that the colleges would produce more IN
telIqeut and more efficient men than could ne
contained through any other plan.
sIf YOU can reach the stage where you can get COM
netting batteres-say from Harvard and Yale-engaged
in field raneuvers you going to get some thrills
that will make the most closely contested football games
seem tame forever more In Europe they learned the
necessv for applying athletics to the greatest Of all the
games It is not any too that we began TO learn
The idea is worthy of expansion The United States
undoubtedly could profit by having highly trained bat
teries of field artillery reserves but 1t can use reserves
of other arms to equal advantage Why limit lnercoi
lepste competitions to artillery? Infantry contests
consisting of competitive drills before the grandstand
and hattie practice in the field would prove equally val
uabe And more educational institutions have infantry
organizations than any other arm OF military service
Further there particular need for limiting mil
itarv competition to the colleges Very many hlgh
schools and other preparatory schools have military or
carnations Let them also stimulate each other to ex
ceIlence in by competition The nation would oene
fit in war time.
