Kansas, Oklahoma & Gulf Wins
Over Frisco Roads Contention,
Will Cost $157,OOO.

Kansas, Oklahoma and Gulf Railroad
received permission today from the In
terstate Commerce Commission to
build six and a half miles of new line
between Baxter Springs and Pitts
burg, Kan. although the ST. Louis
San Francisco railroad opposed it's
application for the authority.
The new line. though short, will
cost $4,000 and will give the gulf
railroad access to Joplin, Mo-, over
its own lines and trackage rights
which it will lease from the Missouri,
Kansas & Texas system.
The Frisco is opposing the request.
presenting evidence to show that the
Kansas, oklahoma and Gulf could
secure trackage rights over Frisco
lines into Joplin and that the new
construction was unnecessary, and
that the best use of existing rail
road facilities would make it un-
necessary for new construction in the
territory.
The commission held, however, that
railroad service would be better and
congestion avoided in the Joplin ter
ritory If the Kansas, Oklahoma and
Gulf we're allowed to construct its
new line and to use the Missouri,
Kansas and Texas terminals into
Joplin.

By Special Leased Wire to The Star.
NEW YORK, August lo.-Railway
bonds. moving like railway stocks,
with entire Indifference to the strike
news. were strong in the market
again today. New high records We're
made in number of instances, among
them the Pennsylvania general 4Es,
the Pennsylvania ten-year is. which
sold at III: the st. Louis South
western Terminal SIS. and the Gin
cinnati and Ohio convertible 5s. The
ST. Louis Southwestern Terminals are
a third mortgage, but. nevertheless
are well secured. and they have the
recommendation of being one of the
few bonds returning as much as
per cent, which have the merit OF
comparative safety. st. Louis South
western SIS strengthened in sympathy
with the stocks of the road, as did
Cincinnati and Ohio convertible 5s.
Other Advances.
Iron Mountain As gained a half
point and West Shore As three-quar-
ters. Pere Marquette SIS moved with
the common stock and sold up half
point to 9S IL.
On the other hand. San Antonio and
Arkansas Pass As which had taken
such a sharp jump on Tuesday, re-
acted over a point to so, and Peoria
and Eastern incomes lost over a half
point, to 35.
Big Business.
The latest carloadings figures. fol-
lowing the government crop report
with dts suggestion of unusually
heavy grain tonnage, were a power
full offset to the strike news, however
bad it might be.
The plain fact is that the roads
would be even now doing a maximum
business if coal loadings were normal,
and, following this. the rush of the
new crops to market in the autumn
will tax the carriers to their utmost
capacity.
With this in prospect investors in
railway securities can hardly be eX-
pected to be frightened into selling
by the labor developments no matter
how disquieting they may appear a.
the moment.
Liberties were firm. There was
little feature in the foreign gov
ernment group. French 71ss closely

Is the Plan Advisable?

At the last meeting of the Athletic Ad-
vistOry Council a plan was discussed
whereby no athlete could leave one school
and go to another solely because of ath-
letics. The plan vas that any man who
had participated in athletics for at least
one year at one high school and then
went to another would have to attend
the latter high school for at least a year
before he could take part in any of the
schools athletics. 1t is true that in many
of the preparatory schools and in col
legcs many athletes do change their schools
simply because OF athletics. but in high
schools this is not so true.
Is there enough of this trouble to war
rant such a course being taken? We
doubt it. No one likes to have his school
have the name of hiring athletes or get
ting them to come to their schools in or
der to improve their athletic record, but
at the same time is it fair to bar athletes
who find it necessary to leave one school
and attend another because their families
move to another town? When a man ex-
GELS in athletics and is planning to go
through college and take an active part
III C0Ie5e 0LHleiIcS- the loss DL year
practice means much to him. If this
proposition IS passed it means that q man
who is a junior in one school and goes to
another for his senior year necessarily
would lose a whole years training. This
loss of training would make much differ
ence to him in the first year III college
There must be a possible solution
whereby the student who leaves one school
70 go to another simply because of his
athletic fame could be barred from par
ticpating in athletics until he had been
there a year, while the student who
