The sponsors of the movement quote
professors and coaches as realizing the
value to the individual student by his
elimination OF smoking.
DIR. r. TAFT Mckenzie has pointed out
Its evils. Lawson Robertson. the coach
of the track team, stamps smoking as
being "as bad as drinking for the ath-
lete."
Or. NJ Willard Lante Of the Christian
Association, says that 1t Is not neces.
sary TO smoke to enjoy the fullest and
most pleasurable social intercourse. Mr..
Terrone. the fencing team coach, makes
lunge at the habit when he says, "the
tobacco habit Is the monkey-liSe attl-
tude of humanity"
The committee has drawn attention TO
the fact, TO strengthen its hand, that the
last three commanders of the American
army have been tobacco abstainers.
No organized opposition to the move
among the students has as yet taken
form.

part Of the British proposals for
definite peace terms,
The published assertion that these
ships will be destroyed would seem
premature, since there is consider
able opposition to the plan, espe-
cially on the part of France, Great
Britain does not propose TO destroy
the engines or other parts Of the
ships which have industrial impor-
lance. She would remove these parts
and then destroy the hulls and arm
ament.
The basis Of the British admiralty
plan, which will be submitted to the
supreme council, is that the Ger
man ships should not be retained as
warships and it is insisted that be-
cause of their construction they have
no commercial value. 9
The admiralty decision IS said TO
have been influenced largely by the
belief that satisfactory distribu-
ton of the ships among the allies
was impossible. In fact, it is added,
Great Britain would claim major
portion of the ships. This would
only serve to increase her preponder-
ance Of sea power which, it is held,
might be Objectionable to other ma
tons
