A THOUGHT

The way Of a fool is right in his
own eyes, but he that hearkeneth
unto counsel is wise.-Pro. 1916.
He that wants good sense is un-

has thereby only more ways of ex-
posing himself; and he that has
sense knows that learning is not
knowledge, but rather the art Of
using it.-Steele.

Recommends End of h. terschool Contests in All Sports at Close of Football Season
Fears Danger That Trainer and Athletes May Be Urged to Resort to Harm full Practices in Eagerness to Win.

Principal Louis P. Slade of the Senior High school, in a com munication to Superintendent of Schools Stanley II. Holmes, which has been circularized among the school committee men by the superintendent, sub mits arguments for doing away with interschool athletics at the close of the present football season, which course, he writes, he is now considering.
 The principal asks that the opinion of the school committee men on his proposed course be learned and he expresses a de- sire to discuss with the board the matter of discontinuing these games.
 MT. Slade fears that there are like ly to be occurrences at games which counterbalance the educational ad- vantages of such contests. He reports that the morale of the school is now seriously impaired and he fears the danger that the one responsible for the training and the students engaged in it will be urged and importuned to reSort to practices that make for victory at the expense of sound and thorough course in physical educa- tion and health."
 MT. Slade's letter to Supt. Holmes follows:
 My Dear MT. Holmes:
 "I am considering the advisabiIity of doing away with interschool ath- letics at the close of the present foot ball season. I should be very glad to have the opinion of the school con- mittee in this matter.
 '"The reasons for my contemplated action are as follows:

GERMANY WORRIED
 ABOUT SEPARATION
Rhineland Republic Possibility Is
 Menace to Nations Unity
FRANCE IS GIVING AID
France Likewise win Oppose Restora-
 ton of All German Officials ousted
 From Ruhr For Passive Resistance Work.

| By The Associated Press
 Paris, Sept. 26.-Premier Poincare who returned to the foreign office this morning from Q couple of days rest at his summer home in Sampigny. is awaiting the actual cessation of re- sistance in the Ruhr and compliance by the industrialists there with the or- ders of the authorities of occupation before forming an opinion as to the significance of political events in Ger many. This was made plain today by high official close to the premier. One of the first visitors at the for cign office today was Baron De Calf fer d'Hestroy, the Belgian ambassador who is understood to have conferred with Premier Poincare regarding the situation in Berlin.
 Object To Old Officials
 It is expected in French official cir cles that the Germans will insist strongly onthe return of the expelled functionaries to the Ruhr .and the Rhineland, and such insistence, these circles say, will be likely to form an obstacle to an understanding. The pTcuCu SOFSIulllSlltt IL lS uCCldl Cu, will stoutly resist the return of thu. functionaries who were expelled for acts of sabotage and encouraging re- bellion against the authorities of oc- cupation. Furthermore the French authorities in the occupied area have reported that there is no particular desire on the part of the population of either the Ruhr or the Rhineland to see the Prussian officeholders come back.
 Fear New Republic
 Not the least of the Germ M gov. ernment's worries at present come from the alarming reports from the Hhineland where the separatists are showing increasing activities They now have created general direc- torate which has convoked grand rally to be held at Duesseldorf next Sunday for the purpose of proclaiming Q Rhineland republic.
 The French regime is said here to have agreed to place 70 railway trains at the disposal of the separatists who believe the situation created by the German governments abandonment

whom the administration of neither contesting school can be responsible There are very likely to be occur rences which more than counterbal- ance educationaly, the good results of the contest.
 The exhibiting of interschool con- tests is likely to suggest to, and al- most invite, the witnessing public to interfere and hamper the educational processes of a training in athletics, one of the most valuable lines of training that a school can offer.
 There is a constant danger that the one responsible for the training and the students engaged in it, will be urged and importuned to resort ~to practices that make for victory at the expense of sound and a thorough course in physical education and health.
 For ten years the present admin tstration has been seeking to mln1- mize the dangers of interschool con- tests. The minimum has not been reduced. At present it threatens to be seriously increased.
 Among the best educational au-
 
 thorities, it is an accepted principle that school team should, at all times, be within the absolute and di- rect control of a representative of the Teaching force. Our teams are under such control; and during the past two years we have been, so far as victor ies are concerned, relatively success fnl. We have won a football cham pionship, basketball championship, and a baseball championship. I have never known a better aE-around coach than our present physical direc- tor; his ideals of sport and of living are of the very highest. I feel that we could not have better man for testing the desirability of interschool contests. And yet, because of the risks and dangers to which I have referred in the previous paragraphs, the morale of the school is seriously impaired.
 T should be very glad to discuss the matter with you or with any group whom you may wish to select | Respectfully yours,
 LOUIS P. SLADE."

NO PRINCETON TICKETS
New Haven Chamber of Commerce Not to Be Permitted to Apply For Big Game Pastcboards.


 New Haven, Sept. 26.-Because the arrangement has not worked out well the Yale university athletic associa- tion has ended the privilege which members of the Chamber of Com merce had of applying for tickets for the big football game of the season at the Bowl. This fall it would have been the Princeton game. The chief point on which the change is based is that the demand for tickets has been so great that there has always been time when the allotments had to be cut down resulting in some members of the chamber getting tickets and others getting left. The fact that holders of season tickets are preferred applicants for tickets for all special games as against the public in general make a more equit- able arrangement in the opinion of the football management.
