High School Athletics.

EVERYONE who is interested i'll the develop
ment of our school system is bound to feel
the need of affording better opportunity TO the
young folks Gin the high schools to improve their
physical well mental well-being. The situa-
ton in so far as it concerns hall for staging
the many athletic competitions between the high
schools is admittedly bad is the playground
situation for the youngsters in the elementary
grades.
;. During the spring and months when
outdoor athletic competitions are in order the
athletes are we'll provided for in the stadium at
Central, but in the winter months, when football
gives way to basketball, only handful OF the
high school pupils may see their favorte teams in
action.
So far as the school buildings proper are con-
cerned not one OF them is properly equipped. The
nterscholastic basketball games have to be staged
in the Coliseum the Center Market As
many $500 pupils attend each of the games and
many more arc turned away.
With such fine spirit and love, OF wholesome
sport in the high schools some arrangement should
be made to give athletics more announcement
OF course, it is quite of the question at this
time to speak OF erecting great hail. There are
other things OF more Importance, suitable school
buildings, for instance. But at the same time the
school officials might consider, some arrangcu,t NJ

Congress Hats Vienna
Aid, Says DR.. Pirquet

Only the refusal of Congress to
take the loan OF s24.OOO.0O0 worth Of
grain sent to Austria for relief after
the armistice out of the class of war
debts prevents the granting of an
interallied loan to Austria and a
moratorium on foreign debts for
twenty years. according to DR..
Clemens Pirquet. OF Vienna. who is
in this country to ask that the OBJ
stacle to a loan be removed. The
other allies are willing to defer
payment on Austria's war debt to
them until that time. he said. but
that the plan needed the consent OF
the United States. TO whom Austria
owes no war debt.
The League Of nations and the
PREPARATIONS commits Sion feel that il
is time that Austria settled heI
financial problems and arc willing
to help her do So" said Dr. PirqueI
They will grant her the loan she
needs on condition shat al! nations
give Austria a moratorium fog
twenty years. MI eNCcp: America
have done 80.
America has refused largely he
cause Of a rurmality. The foreign
debt Of Austria has become mixed
in some way with the war dch;.
The only debt Austria owes Amer
lea is for s24 .OOO.O0O worth of grain
for relief-not for child feeding
that was gift from the Unitcd
states. gift that cannot b" too
grealy appreciated. 1t probably
saved Austria from BolsheviSm
But when America loaned Austria
this money to purchase grain, no
body thought that IL would be paid
back inside of twenty years. In
some way il got on the book. SO TO
speak, as an interallicd debt, and
this makes an act of Congress
necessary before 1t can. be declared
a relief debt. which ii was. Then
We would be able to get the loan
which VIC need.
1T is said that America. which
has done so much for Austria.
should thus because of the technI-
cality, be the cause of hindering
Austria's recovery. As a matter Of
fact. America. because of refusal to
grant an extension of time on the
debt to Austria. was largely the
cause of the tremendous fall in
kronen from 700 to the dollar to
5000 to the dollar. when it was
sedh that America had blocked, the
loan, the stock exchange began to
sell kronen and down they went
I'VE also hope to see child feed
ing continued by America for a few
months after June. 1922, when the
funds with which Mr.. Hoover has
been carrying on this WORK. will be
exhausted II We can get the loan
through the action of Congress, il
should be turned over to us in about
year. and after that there will
be no need for further aid. We will
be able to feed the children our
selves. But in the interval between
June and the time the loan is
granted, say six months, the chill
dren will still be in need Of relief
which will cost possibly $1,000. 900
for the six months, 1t costs about
ss,000.000 a year to feed 100000
children in Austria"
DIR. Pirquet said that the child
feeding station was more than a
relief institution-that il had be-
come. the worlds laboratory" for
experimental work in nutrition. 1t
: the largest feeding station in the
! world. its kitchens catering to
100000 children a day, he said.

A recent article in one of the Sun

the ordinary, stereotyped Congress
