ALDR|CH EXPLAINS
 HIS FOOTBALL IDEA
President Lowell of Harvard Re-
 spends at Same Dinner

Boston, Feb. 16.-The views of ar undergraduate of prominence on the gridiron and of an educator who thinks too much has been made of football were heard from the same table when Malcolm r. Aldrich, cap tain of the Yale eleven last fall and A. Lawrence Lowell. president ot Harvard university spoke at the an nual dinner of the Yale club of Bos ton last night.
 Faults Exaggerated.
 The faults in football have been exaggerated Aldrich said. The game as a whole was under attack because several small faults had been given undue prominence. Football has mere ly Kept in stride with the wishes of the public instead Of football turing the public to follow it. The part that the gridiron sport plays in the ath- letic life of the college was indicat- ed, he said, in the fact that it sup ported nearly all the other sports of the college, He hoped President Low ell and President Angell of Yale. would reach some happy agreement as to the football of the future, but thought there was little need for change.
 Lowell Responds.
 President Lowell answered Aldrichs point about footballs contribution to the athletic treasury by saying that all necessary college athletics could be supported without the aid of the revenue from spectacular public ex- hibitions. He disapproved of carry ing the idea, of public exhibitions in college athletics too far. While be- ieving there should be annually one struggle between Harvard and Yale in football he thought the habit which had grown up of pro- ,-ding exhibitions for enormous crowds almost every week for a cer- ain period in the fall was open to objection. As result the public was ed to believe that sports were the 1 ;ole purpose of college life.
 Praise For Aldrich. The undergraduate, President Low II thought, preserved a true balance l # the importance of all the activities. | ut the alumni and. to a greater de- |

 Dr. Meredith Speaks.
 The first speaker was Dr. A. B. Meredith, state commissioner of edu- cation. Dr. Meredith in opening his address said he was present as spokesman and attorney for $50, ,oOO young people and their parents. He spoke on the theory that the future welfare of American business depends entirely on public schools today
 He said the advancing costs of education are due partially to the fact that conditions arc changing and that today the citizen must take his proper part in the problems oF the world, and not remain isolated, as did the citizen of B or 40 years ago. Among the various items he men toned as requiring better educational equipment were modern economic and social conditions. increasing knowledge of human nature, prob lens which demand better and more expert teachers. the doing away with the trade schools by manufacturers and putting this duty up to the schools. lack of proper training in discipline and manners in the home, shifting of some of the burden from the churches to the schools, and the need of clean safe, sanitary and ade- quote school buildings.
 Abhors Retrenchment Talk.
 He said there should be no talk of retrenchment. The school district should be independent of municipal financial interests and concluded with the warning that, "The tendency to spend less money on schools will have a tendency to drive good teach CTS ont of the profession"
 $. H. Holmes Speaks.
 The problem of the increased cost of schools is not peculiar to New Brit ain. but is the problem facing school districts all over the country accord ing to Superintendent Stanley H. Holmes. MT. Holmes quoted figures to show that the local teachers are not being paid any higher, than any where else in the state. Preachers arc not receiving any more nor as much as they ought to have" he said
