Despite this enormous and uni

Yet sage economists declare the

a costly failure.
In theory the gas tax is fail

Football

F=74E football season really. opens today. A
II few games already have been played,
but most of the schools have not until today
really plunged into their schedules.
With the opening OF the football season we
hear the old familiar arguments about too
much athletics in our high schools and col
lleges Of course, there is such thing as too
much athletics, but too much athletics would be
better than no athletics at all.
Just what does a college student learn
that is useful to him in his later life? Putting
the question another way, just what IS neces-
sary in the way of education in order that the
individual may be happy in living and at least
moderately successful9
The essential qualities. we believe, include
intelligence, loyalty and fighting spirit. In
teligence to large extent can not be &C
CURED One either has it or he doesn't have 1t.
Intelligence can be developed through study.
That is the principal purpose of classroom and
Laboratory work.
But one may have a half dozen degrees
and still be failure because he may lack the
essential elements of loyalty and fighting
sspirit. There is no such thing as winning any
thing without struggle. There is no royal
road to success.
Where can loyalty and the fighting spirit
be better developed during college years than
on the football field7 1t may be argued that
only limited number of students benefit be-
cause only limited number can participate IN
the games. This may be true to some extent,
but the spirit of the football field the will to
win and to win fairly, is bound to permeate
the entire student body.
We do not contend that only through ath-
letics can the qualities under discussion be de-
veloped, but we do contend that athletics are
useful in this direction. Therein lies the value
of college football and Of other college and
high school sports. The mere physical devel-
opment Of few players is of comparatively
small Importance and alone would not be
worth the struggle.

Airplane Possibilities

m through the visit of the airplanes Fri
day in the commercial air reliability
tour, Indianapolis has had an opportunity to
glimpse the possibility of air transportation.
These planes, equipped to carry passengers
and freight, are making a test tour. The
tour is being conducted with the idea of pro-
noting air navigation.
America is far behind Europe in air trans
portation. To make a trip from London to
Paris from Paris to Berlin is all in the day 8
work over there. Regular air lines run con-
tinuously. In America, trip by airplane still
is something of an event. There are immense
possibilities in the carrying of passengers and
freight between American cities We look
upon ourselves as congenital time-savers We
talk about the fast movement and the rush of
America. Yet we have neglected one of the
most obvious ways to reduce time and dis
lance.
1t seems unfortunate that in the country
where the airplane was invented and developed
and where there is so much need for rapid
transportation because of great distances, the
commercial use of the airplane has not made
more progress.
