ARMY TRANSPORT
 STILL ON MARKET
Crook. Government Boat Offered for Sale. Finds No One Who
 Wants to Buy.

Manila. r. l.. April 15, (Dclaycd). .. The veteran army transport. Crook. which was offered for sale by the quartermaster of the Philip pine department of the United States army. is still on the market, no bids having been received for the craft in response to advertisements. The reason assigned for lack of bids is a surplus of ocean tonnage for the freight now offering.
 The Crook was formerly a Brit ish ship. having been built in Scot land in 1882. She was known as the Roumania until purchased by the United States at tho outbreak of the Spanish American war. Her tonnage is 4,126.

WAR ON ATHLETICS
 FOR GIRLS STARTS
British Campaign Is in Interest
 of Motherhood

London, June 9.-A campaign in the interest of motherhood and against the ill-effects alleged to re- suit from girls going in for athletics has been started here.
 A resolution was passed at a meet- ing of managers of girls schools and of women who claimed to have made a study of physical culture protesting against the present system of physical education for girls as injurious to fu- ture generations. A smaR committee was formed to draw up and circulate a manifesto on tho subject
 Several letters favoring the move ment were read. Sir James Crichton- Browne, author of books on mental and nervous diseases, wrote: Phys ical exercises and training are as nec- essays to girls as to boys, but these must have regard to physiological and developmental considerations. To ig- nore sexual differences is to court dis aster in the long rum"
 Women who develop masculine in stead of feminine instincts wrote pr. Arabella keneaIy, do this at the cost of the male potential which is transmitted by the father to the daughter in trust for the male Iine
  spring mainly and seldom have sons. When sons are born to them, they are apt to be puny and delicate. or generally emaSculate or of inferior type. The cultured classes who are mainly afflicted by athletic training, are failing to provide sons of the fine physique and the manly talents and initiative which have set our Anglo Saxon race in the van of evolution
 Miss Cowdray, the principal of girls high school. who moved the res olution of protest. said that the girls who had been trained to play hockey, cricket and football suffered at child birth. Sometimes the child suffered sometimes the mother and sometimes one of them died. Eighty per cent of the girls she had known who had been trained to become gymnastic mis- treSses had been incapacitated for motherhood.
 A girl had large store of vital and nervous energy which she could draw upon if normally developed at the great crisis of motherhood. That strength was a deposit account but if she used it current account. as boy could afford to do. her children would pay the bill. She believed that the Victorian girl was better mother than the modern athletic girl.
 Miss Radmar, director of the d'Egville Michau School of Physical Development. said that the feet were the only part of a girls body that need be made strong. A womans body should he elastic and strong chests and big muscles meant inelastic chests and bodies. Drill apparatus should be done away with.
 Mrs. Roger Watts pleaded for the teaching of poise. Let us go back to the Greeks" she said, ito the system which was the most wonderful ever known

R. O. T. (. Members to "FIunl''-F'ail to See Worth of Subject-SchooI Board Explains.

Quashing protests of several mem bers of the R. O. T. c. unit at the High school that the importance of that subject does not warrant funk ing q pupil, members of the school committee have explained that mil- ltarY training is one of the major subjects at the school and must be viewed in that light. It is reported that several seniors who are en- rolled in the unit have not passed the subject satisfactorily, and their other marks not being sufficiently high, they will not receive a diplo- ma this year. The pupils, it is ex- pla1ned, have not taken the subject seriously enough although the ne- cesslty of a passing mark has been explained to them and, accordinclv they have not measured up to stan dard.
 When the school committee mada an agreement with the war depart- ment for the issue of euuipment gratis 1t was agreed that the subject should be regarded as one of the maJor studies. Under those condi- tons, 1t is explained, there is noth- ing for the local board to do but live up to it's agreement with the gov ernment.
