Former Athlete Declares
Public Spirited Een Have
Failed to Lend
Support.

Hollis Hunter. football referee,
former Hammond high school coach
and for years a supporter OF the city s
paid team. today sc ored the public for
the humillating position OF the city
in athletics
The high school has had the most
disastrous season in its history and
the professional football club fell far
short Of success.
Hunter told a reporter that It is
time the city did something for ath :
letics. and more especially for the
boys and young men whose principal
interest IS athletics. He pointed TO
the splendid results OF the courses of
physical training in the public schools
OF Gary.
Athletics have been neglected by
the schools and by the city" declared
Hunter IT think Il is time that the
live organizations of the city such as
the Rotary club. the Kiwanis club and
the Chamber OF Commerce turned their
attention 10 the needs OF the boys and
the young man.
ITO begin with the city Ia without
an athletic field on which baseball
and football can be played. There IL
nothing to take the place OF Y. NJ.
C. A. What we need above all else
is an athletic field and intelligent
training and coaching.

NEW HAVEN. Conn. Nov. Is
Plans for increasing the seating ca
pacity of Yale bowl to 117.00 are UNI
der consideration by Yale authorities.
A statement given out yesterday by
Charles A Ferry, Yale. II. designer

ade. The balcony would consist of
series OF concrete arches supported by
reinforced concrete columns erected

ade. The arches would support a
concrete deck. built in steps. OH which
would be placed benches as in the
bowl. This addition would provide
about $4,000 more seats and make

HAMMOND HAS NEGLECTED.
PHYSICAL TRAINING

nd football IN the past and years
gone by our teams excelled in these
sports. We have turned out record
breaking track and field athletes. But
now we find ourselves at the bottom
II the heap and all because we have
neglected this important phase OF
civic life.
Athletics properly regulated are
essential TO the well-being OF our
boys and young men. You cannot
turn a boy lose to haunt the
poolrooms and amuse himself as best
he can and expect to have h. be-
come a vigorous. healthy, clean. am
bilious man. Athletic competition Is
the finest thing in the world for the
boy. But there is no encouragement
for It in this city after he has left
the ranks OF the Boy Scouts and the
high school.
IF the Rotary. Kiwanis and the
Chamber of Commerce club would en-
ploy an athletic director and the city
help in maintaining an athletic field.

CAPITAL Halls NEW YEAR
Government Machinery Halted for
Observance Of Natal Day Of 1921

Washington, Jan. 1.-(By A. P.)-
The government machinery in Wash
ington paused today to greet the incom-
ing year. Despite the elimination of
the customary White House reception,
due to President Wilson's illness, other
features of the New Years Day OBJ
servance in official circles promised to
restore much of the colorfulness of the
occasion in pre-war years.
Members Of the Diplomatic Corps
were invited TO a reception at the home
OF Acting Secretary Davis. Of the State
Department, who was delegated by the
President to act in his stead. Beside
informal receptions by other cabinet
officers, Secretaries Baker and Daniels
arranged to hold "open house"
The following message from Secretary
Daniels was read by men of the Amer
lean navy around the world:
"Greetings to the men of the navy
whose service in 1920 under trying cir
cumstanCcs has illustrated the naval
hlbit of meeting every emergency with
resource and success. May the new
year bring to them the recognition
which patriotic service rightly merits. "
