EDWARD O. STIEHM GIVES REASONS
Why SPORTS WOULD NOT BE
GIVEN UP ON ACCOUNT WAR.

BLOOMINGToN. Ind, June ll.-Ed-
wald q. Stichm. director of athletics Of
Indiana university, has issued u statement
giving his reasons why he believes ath-
letics should not he abolished among the
Western Conference universitic, on ac-
count of the war.
After Stain. that the universities ard
already nave been hit hard by the men
enlisting, Stiehm quoted Mai. Gen. Wood,
who, he said. had urged hat the students
remain in school pending the inception u
the government consumption Plans.
Stiehm added hat from the utteranceS of
Gen. Wood and others in authority he be-
lieved. il was tho governments plan to de-
velop officers from the university men and
that it did not desire them Ia enlist in the
ranks.
Patriotism of the real stamp, ] be

that the university men of the country re
strain their patriotic desires 10 Join al
once in the struggle. and that they heed
the call of the government to mark time
pending their assignment to tasks for
which they arr best fitted and in which
capacity they will be the greatest possible
service TO their country.
"Present mill AIRY needs alone should
not be- considered. What of the future :
In a recent report of a ranking officer oi
the United States army, figures were sub
mtted TO show that ass per cent of the
personnel of ten of the volunteer regi-
ments organized in 1898 were applicants
for pensions on account Of physical disa-
bility by 1900. Ii L. patent that the same
result will follow the present war if tn,
men who enlist are not physically fit. L

After quoting Mai. Palmer Pierce Of th'
Z. s.. army a favoring intercollegiate ath-
letics and pointing out that athletics are
to be continued at both West Point an,
