War Dept. Puts
Ban on Trips
And Training

WASHINGTON, Sept 14.-Athletic
sports as formerly pursued, involving
extended trips and specialized training,
Will not be permitted at colleges and
other institutions having army student
training corps, Colonel R. I. Rees,
chairman of the War Department Com
mittee on Education and Special Train
ing, has advised presidents of such in
stitutions in letter made public here
day.
1t will be the policy Of the committee,
however, to strongly encourage sports
within each institution and with neigh
boring institutions. Colonel Rees said
IN cases in which the distances are so
short as to necessitate no interruption
of the weekly schedule OF academic and
military trimming.
"Athlctlc sports rs formerly pursued.
involving extended trips and Specialized
framing, are inconsistent with the SOL
dlers' programme of drill and study."
said the letter. "Athletic directors and
professors of physical education who
are already in the employ of the stu
dents army training camp institution,
can be used IN connection with inter-
mural sports and for the assistance of
the officers in charge of military phys
lcal training.
Officer Responsible
"The commanding officer at each in
stltutlon will be in charge of the physi-
cal condition and training of the men
under his command. and will be respon-
slblc for coordinating the military
training, routine and discipline with
athletic sports'
After receipt Of this letter the presi
dents of several colleges wrote to Sena-
tors protesting that the plan would
prevent intercollegiate football this
season and until the end of the war
with a consequent financial loss to the
schools, which already had arranged
schedule of games and made contracts
for playing them.
In addition to preventing intercol-
leglate football the ruling also NAV
make it impossible for the institutions
to participate in Intercollegiate and
other track meets, intercollegiate base
Dali and other sports.

rots Record
Mile on Track
Covers Distance in 2:l2N-
Davis Also Pilots Terrace
Girl to Victory
By J. S. Mitchell

Owing to the fact that fourteen of
the best trotters housed at the Park
way track, Brooklyn, had been shipped
to Rivcrhead for the campaign there.
the programme Of the Nassau Driving
Club was shortened 70 five numbers
yesterday but this shortage was more
than ounterbalanced by the quality of
the racing.
Among the section which delights in
high speed tests the event of the hour
was trial against the watch by Marion
klrke over the mile route. That the
mare was in rare fettle was demon
strated by her one attempt, in which
she trotted the distance in the
cracking time of 2:l2A. This is
track record for matinee mile for
the season. This speedy daughter OF
San Francisco was steered by Bob
Davis. her owner, and Judging from
the style in which she raised the dust
she could have done much better if
extended. On two previous occasions
She did 2:i3 in competition, and each
time had just enough on hand to out
step the opposition.
From racing standpoint the best
event Of the day was the 1920 trot,
which attracted hall dozen steppers.
Here again Davis was to the fore, for
with the bay mare Terrace Girl he
, secured the ribbon in straight heats.
Once during the second heat it looked
as if Plancon, driven by Virgins, might
give Davis something to do, but just
as he was on Terrace Girls wheel and
moving we'll he broke. AS the horses
hit the stretch it looked as if Moe
Aaronson with FL Vivelo might give
Davis tusslc, but just then Noes
geldng had shot his bolt, and had not
quito steam enough to get up on the
drive to the wire.
Only two horses showed for the free
for-all trot, rated as the high-class
thing of the day. Ethel B. and Seal
skin Boy, old opponents on the Park
way circuit, supplied the sport. and
they had the closest kind Of tilt.
The first heat fell tc the mare and
the next to the gclding, his driver
urging him with whip and rein on the
homestretch to win by 81 short mar
gin The mare led all the way in the
deciding heat until the distance post.
when Sealskin Boy had just steam
enough TO shoot by her and win by
a length.

PRICES JUMP IN rs YEARS
Wisconsin Farmer Makes Interesting
Comparison Between Prices In
1892 and Now.

Portage. WISE II. Studenmayer,
who has been engaged In farming In
this locality for the past quarter of a
century, has made a comparison be-
tween prices prevalent in 1892 and
those Of 1918. Here's what he found !;
Hogs in 1892 were $3.50. now SIG;
cattle $3.50, now $40; rye 40 cents, now
Sl.s5; wheat As cents, now $500; po-
tatoes 10 cents, now 81; butter IS
cents, now 80 cents; eggs s cents. now
40 cents; cord wood $3.50. now $3.50 I;
bran SIS, now $40; hay 50. now 500.
and oats - cents, now 75 cents. The
farmer says these are only a few Of
the changes, and while agriculturists
are obtaining decidedly better prices
than % y6lrs ago. they are compelled
70 pay more for what they buy.
