College Athletics.

Dean Briggs of Harvard, in his an- nua1 report as chairman of the com-
 nittee on the regulation of athletic sports, calls attention to the rare op- portunity which the suspension of in tercollegiate games during the war affords for the inauguration of long desired reforms. The public takes it for granted that when peace condi- tions are resume ed the era of big games will begin anew. " But will the old system of intercollegiate athletic rivalry. with it's long schedule of spec tacular contests, it's paid coaches, it's training tables, it's varied extrava- ganccs and it's genera demora liza.tion of college studies during many weeks of the year be permitted to restablsh itself? Thai is a question which our educational authorities ought right now to take in hand. No such oppor- tunity for reforming athletic abuses has ever presented itself hitherto, and none is likely to come again.
 The permanent abolition of all inter- collegiate games only a few extremists have ever advocated as q principle of educational policy. But not a few sen sible men, both i'll college faculties and among college gra duates, have been driven to the belief that these contests ought to be abolished unless some practical way of subordinating them to the intellectual interests of an academic community an be devised. Now is the time. therefore, to work out some plan whereby the admittedly good features of inter-college sport may be retained when the War is over. but the old abuses eliminated. No one college can do this. It must be dono bv agreement among them all. Ncgo- tiations of this sort take time how ever, and that is why oeg1nnlng should be made at once.

Damaged German Ships.

CrorontO Monetary Timesl
 All the damage done to 109 German ships by their crews, prior to their seizure by the United States Govern ment, when war was declared, has been repaired and these ships are to- day in service, adding more than 500,- 900 gross tonnage to the transport and cargo fleets in war service for the United States. There is evidence that a. German central authority gave an order for destruction of these ships, effective about Feb. 1, 1917, simultan- eously with the date set for unre- stricted submarine warfare, and that the purpose was to inflict such vital damage to the machinery of all Ger man ships in United States ports that none could be operated for from eighteen months to two years.
 The destructive campaign of .ne German crews comprehended a system of ruin which they believed would necessitate the shipping of new ma- chfnery to substitute for that whict. was ruthlessly battered down or pain stakingly damaged by drilling or dis mantlement- There is documentary proof that the enemy believed the damage irreparable. To obtain new machinery would have entailed a pro- Ionged process of design, manufaC- tlIre and installation. urged by the necessity of conserving time, the en eineers of the United States Navy Department succeeded, by unique means. in patching and welding the broken parts and replacing all of the standard parts which the Germans de- tached from their engines and de- et trovad or threw overheard
 American ingenuity, as our frlenos at Washington have stated, defeated German malice and craft by restoring to service 109 badly damaged interned ships. We must not, however over look the part playel by the British navy by keeping those 109 shlps bot tied up in United States ports, lh many cases for years.

HELP RELIEVE THE COAL
 SITUATION.

We have come to a pretty pass when women, babes in their arms, must beseech at the veTy doors of City Hall for the necessaries of life. Yesterday that spectacle greeted the Mayor and his official family. The coal situation, of course, was to blame. The Mayor is now making every effort to remedy the. condition; unless the coal dealers and the people who have more coal than they need come to the rescue.
 It is an established fact that there Is very little coal in the yards of the city There are very many reasons why this is so; not the least of which government started in to fix prices proceeded in ordering coal with too much caution. They feared a finan- cial loss. Naturally, they were not going to buy g. commodity at what some look upon as a high wholesale price and sell it for a low retail price.
 Whatever the causes of the present coal shortage, the milk is spilled. There is no use crying now for the sins of the past The only thing that can be done is to see to it that the same mistakes never occur again. When the time comes for such action the Mayor and his appointed deputies might coax the coal dealers to lay in a supply sufficient to meet the de- mands of the people. It should re- nuire but a small amount of figuring to find out just how many tons Of coal on the average are consumed in this city every winter; and then at the proper time to lay in this supply. In the meantime, whatever suggestions the Mayor may advance should be taken kindly by the men who hold
