Sports writer's have already begun to specVl-
late on the status of college athletics now that,
hosfilities have ceased. Most OF what Is writ
ten looks to an early restoration OF our higher
schools 10 peace conditions This is taking
more for granted than the present situation
makes sure Moreover. worse thing might
happen TO college athletics than the change
which government plans outline for them
Steps have already been taken to standariize
college sports -Four or more young men from
each institution where training camp exists
have been ordered to report to Princeton uni
versity for a special course in training for in
structorships. Mass athletics, college games
isczing, fencing. bayonet practice and military
calistherics are included IN the training The
sports program looks to the training Of the
great body Of students 10 the Inauguration OF
competitive games IN each college, to the sub
stitution of athletics for al the young men IN
place of the contests by the specialized few
Every young man in training viii he made Fl

II comes back into all channels OF
business and professional activity
very soon after It is earned by the
employee to whom II Is paid.
In these extraordinary days Of
high costs. the payroll dollar Is n
boon to the community that is for
tunate enough to have industries
and payrolls.
Oregon has no patent on the move
ment to stimulate interest in behalf
OF home industries.
On the contrary. Oregon Is away
behind In the big activities along
this line.

goods.
It Is now patriotic duty Of every
local citizen to use the goods pro-
duced by Oregon factories and the
merchant or consumer who falls To

Millions of money is going out OF
