ANOTHER DARK CHAMPION.

There is new excitement in the realm of pugsm
and a new topic for racial controversy Georges Car
pentier the French Fighter. has been beaten by al
black
There be question of the color of
Sikh the champion, though for purposes Of racial
analysis he is somewhat of problem. sikh is from
Senegal the French colony in West Africa from which
so many dushy soldiers have been drawn for
service. The natives there described mixture
of Nloors Berbers and Negroids. The latter pre-
dominate and Sikh is said be Of their breed.
Thus Sikh evidently, is 4 full-blooded negro
like Jack Johnson, but negro than anything else
He speaks French and is citizen OF France and the
French public, which little for the color line
seems TO consider him Frenchman, all the more
int erestng because of his origin
Naturally there is talk Immediately of bringing
Sikh TO America, where pugilsm fourishes and is
most profitable. SO the old question that ragged few
years may bob again, with much talk OF white
hopes and "black hopes and America ptted defi-
nitey against Africa The prospect has its
tons for followers of the prize ring and for millions
whose sporting interest is purely academic will
Dempsey fight SIKH" This may the ques-
ton OF tho hour.
If he will, il might do harm let Jack John
son try conclusions with Sikh. That would not solve
the question OF racial supremacy but it might solve
the question OF Jack Johnson. He, it may be re-
Inembtred eliminated by conquest the
hands Of rival brniscr bnt by the milder process

TOO MANY COLLEGE MEN"

When President Hopkins of Dartmouth SAID that
.too many men going to college, he probapy
meant rot that fewer should have college
education but that many going TO college ought
to be there.
That is the literal truth, us anybody who mas
ever done much observing OF college men knows. ~
good many of the young fellows who are sent to
college and some who go their own Nol1tlon, ought
to be In offices factories on farms lhey may
have brains but they have not the kind OF Drains
that demand an academic education. With such men
college education doesn't take" They might be adj
nfrably fitted for active aud useful work OF more
practical nature and happier in 1t; and II 50. the
sooner they get it, the better
On the other hand, there are bright and ambitious
lads everywhere who yearning for more education
and who might utilize 1t gloriously for their own al
yancement and the public benefit but who because OF
financial difficulties other lack of opportunity never
get to college They ought to be there In place OF
the bored iders or the well-meaning well educated
man. and there is always plenty Of eligible material
Il Is all question OF selection.
The way to solve the problem is not to limit col
ege attendance arbitrarily limiting lm1nigra-
ton but to obtain the desired "aristocracy OF brains
by entrance requirements high enough to exclude the
unfit and by extending educational opportunities 50
that any boy girl of sufficient ability and ambition
can be prepared and admitted And fortunately this
is the present tendency.
