Il. K. Hall, chairman of the football
committee, reported that football had
undergone q revival within the last
two years and has never been so we'll
intrenched as now. He said there
were more football matches and more
men engaged in football in the past
season than ever before.

part played by athletics in the war.
Smaller Colleges Object
The executive committee recon-
mended and the association approved
by vote of 81 to 23 the adoption of
football schedules including only these
colleges which support The rules Of
the association. Emphasis was laid up
on acceptance of the one-year fresh
man rule. The recommendation met
with spirited opposition from some of
the smaller college representatives who
claimed they suffered a disadvantage
from their freshman classes.
1t was also voted that the associa
tlon begin action to assure its proper
representation at the coming Olyfnnic
games.
A tribute to the officers was paid
when, by unanimous vote, it was de-
cided to reelect them for another sea
son. Brigadicr General Palmer Z.
flerce, Z. S. A., was retained as presi-
dent, while DeansS. W. Boyer, Ohio

president, and Professor Frank W.

again gwen the post of secretary treas
urer, which he has held since the or
eanization of the National Collegiate
Association, in 1905.
The election of members of the vari-
Gus committees also took place, and in
only few instances were there
changes in the personnel of the bodies.

ALASKA TRANSPORTATION

In another column of the Alaska Dis patch will be found information which indicates that the Alaskan Engineer ing commission plans to purchase a freight-carrying vessel to be employed in transporting materials, supplies and the like for the Alaska railway project, now under construction in Alaska. In other words, instead of giving this freight to the steamship companies engaged regularly i1 the Alaska trade, the government, acting through the Alaskan engineering con- mission, proposes to employ it's own vessels for that purpose.
 Whether this is a move in the in- terests of economy is not the point we wish to discuss here. We believe that is a debatable question, at that. What we should like to consider is, what is best for the interests of Alaska? We take it that Alaska is concerned in having an adequate transportation service between Seattle and Alaskan ports. We believe that the steamship service given by the two big Alaska lines is very satisfactory, all things considered. To maintain the present service, business must be available for them, otherwise, of course, the service will be curtailed. These com panies can not be expected to operate at a loss for any considerable period of time The Alaskan engineering commission, in putting on it's own boats, is taking so much freight from the private carriers. It is entering into competition with the regular steamship lines, which have a right to expect the Alaska business. The loss of the engineering commissions freight business means that this loss to the private carrieres must be made up somehow, and hence an additional burden falls on the people of Alaska in order to maintain an adequate transportation service. Whereas, if the commissions business went to the private carriers, the volume of busi- ness would be augmented to the ex- tent that it would not be necessary to increase freight or passenger rates to maintain the present service.- Alaska Dispatch
