The first fife alarm for the year was sent in from Box 46. at o'clock Fri morning, and the alarm was empha- Sized b. q duplication sent in by re- 1uest from the telephone exchange. It was q big aIarm for small fire and served as a precaution against the possibility t.f the fire assuming larger proportions and perhaps spreading tc other buildings. There was strong wind prevailing, and, had the fire gained headway the sparks would have been carried a long distance. The fire was in the two story dwelling house, in Rock street, owned by Charles F Burdick, of Bradford, and occupied by Walter Greene and fam fly.

Leading hockey authorities of the
United States will meet here a
week fr~m today to decide upon
the feasibility Of sending an Amer
lean seven to Antwerp to compete
fcr the Olvm,ic hoske champi,n-
ship scheduled for cry in Arr1.
It is thorg''t that there would be
little difficulty in assembling a
powerrul combination from among
the amateur pu. stars of Boston,
Pittsburgh, Philadelphia and this
city, with additions from cities of
the Great Lakes section, where
ko,k key is an all-winter snort.
Efforts are being made by the
Am rican Olympic authorities to
ascertain under what conditions the
championship will be decided at
Antwerp and whether natural or
-rtifi"ial ice will be available. The
playing rules and the various na.
tons iikcl' to be represented re
also items which need to be cleared
up before the American authorities
can definitely pass judgment on the
project.
If it is decided to enter one or
more teams in the Olympic cham.

that there will be scr es of try.

those who wish to see college athletics
freed from all traces of professional
ism and CONNIE realism, IS to be re-
GREETED. The theory of the permanent
coach, attached to the facu ty is good
one. 1t hits at the base of the coach
ing question-one the mo di.fical
as present day tendencies 20 in our
college athletics. We had hoped that
tnere wou be more general move
sumed after the war, than the official
report on the situation di closes.
Up to very few years ago, the
PAID seasonal varsity football coach
was unknown at least at Yale. The
movement started however, and is now
under strong headway. 1t ought not to
cost Yale SIS 600 year to secure an
experienced and suitab graduate help
to put strong football eleven on the

"Outside Of the cost o. maintaining

IN other ways, and amenab e to faculty

quite aware will be the opinion of
some. But we are frank to say that
do not like the tendency Of late
wears in this re nect and could wish it
changed. We believe in varsity teams
and in turning them out as we drill ed
and as capcb OF hrishing the season

DO not believe in making business of
