NEW CASTLE CAGE
TITLE UP IN THE AIR

viii it be Newark, or will it be New
Castle? This is the absorbing ques-
ton which occupies the minds OF
Kent county basketball fans now as
well as those in New Castle. The
d. |. A. A. championship in this county
is certainly between these teams, but
who it will be remains unknown. The
comparative records show both well
matched and formidable antagonists,
and though they appear to favor New
Castle slightly, the advantage Of a
home court for the next game will
more than balance that.
New Castle has developed a team
speedy enough TO carry of hOnOrs in
six out OF seven games, the remaining
one being lost by one point TO VII
mington b" Varsity, whom they
had previously defeated by two
points. Newark High School has
played as many games. but they have
lost to Beacon College. 1917. and TO
New Castle, 1921 The only team
played by both is Beacon. over whom
New Castle High has registered a
4J-i3 victory. However. il is claimed
that the collegians did not display the
same form against New Castle as they
had against Newark. So. as usual, the
dope" proves nothing The only
thing TO do is TO wait until Feb IS,
when New Castle attacks Newark in
their stronghold. Then if the speed
OF the visitors is too much for the
local crack shots. IL will be decided.
Otherwise a third game will be re-
quired for the county championship
and the privilege Of competing at
Dover for The State title the follow
ing week.
Meanwhile the executive committee
NJ the d. !. 4. A. has announced that
the state championship for girls has
narrowed down 10 two teams. The
strong Seaford seXtette. the only rep

disputed claim on South Delaware,

WANTS COLLEGE FEES
UP TO COST OF TUITION
Institute Would Have Students
Glue Notes.

Since tuition rates in American col
leges have been found to be nowhere
near the cost Of providing that tuition.
the Institute for Public Service sug-
gests that the student pay in full for
his schooling even IL he has to give
promissory notes to be paid off after
he becomes an Garner.
The institute finds that while full
professorships at Yale and the Univer-
sity Of Michigan may now get $4,000
and at Columbia and Harvard, $4,000,
there are at least eighteen colleges pay
ing full professorships less than $4,000
year. At least 40 colleges pay not
more than $4,000 for full professor
ships. And this despite the increases
in pay and tuition rates since 1914. In
creases in tuition fees vary from one
dollar to $3.50.
Julius II. Barnes, chairman of the
institute, said:
"TAe NotioN recently asked what
earthly excuse there is for charging a
rich mans son half Of what he ought
to pay, and then paying a professor
half of what he ought TO get. Answer
ing this question, colleges ard univer-
sites and their student bodies may
soon say there is no earthly excuse
whatsoever"
