There is probably less actual op. position to the 1itchic idea than to the thought of Bakers nomina. tion,l a fact which is offset by the fact that Heker's home state is large and pivotal.

A Good Beginning

Whether or not Yale Universty's inten- ton to eurtail its intercollegiate sports pro. gram will have the desired effect remains to be seen. We don't blame the New Haven authorities for taking steps to shift import. 10 that of the intramural sport. We pre-. sume that Yale will attempt 10 put its drastic change into effect at the same time that its house or separate college idea begins or course that will give the experiment fine start But those colleges and universities not SO fortunate as Yale may still cling to the ballyhoo of the football game.
 Under the new sport schedule Yale will play but five varsity football games We presume that other sports major and minor will be similarly tfcaed. The best feature of the plan, though, is the admission free of charge 10 all contests of undergraduates That should mean lower prices all around for spectators Yale has taken its first step in this direction by lowering prices for the football games of the coming fall. The scale of prices will be regulated by the sport ex- penses of the year. the primary purpose be.
 ing merely to pay them and have a small surplus.
 That is very prasworhy and doubtless will be initiated throughout the nation as it should be. Commereialization of Intereol. lsgists sports, especially football. has gone too far. 1t has definitely placed our inst. tutions of learning in two fields of endeavor. They should be merely intended to educate and train. but unfortunately they are too often merely amusement resorts not only for the students but for the alumni body V and thousands of disnterested spectators. We appreciate intercollegiate rivalry and hope to see 1t continue but not at the price we pay today.
 Z If Yale University realized that perhaps she unintentionally set an example that made colleges be regarded as eenteD of athletic proves and not noted for producing men and women soundly trained and equipped to make their own way she is now making amends But Yale alone cannot be blamed for the spectacle of "big gates and Stand. ing room only signs She was merely keeping up with the spirit of the timss. Let Us be thankful that her authorities realized that the time had come to revert 10 first prin' eples. May more of our larger institutions follow her example.

Thrift

TT am going north this summer" says a business man, into the Canadian haekwoods where the people are so primitive and thrifty that before I'm there a week I find myself saving nails and string It's good for me and fine for the whole family. We live more economically and have better sense of values when we come back" A manufacturer in Louisville. Ky, who makes clothes line cord, says there is such demand for it that he has to run his factory day and night. in three eisht-hour shifts There is a rum too on clothes pins. People are doing their own washing again.
 Another little indication of the same tendency is hinge pins for screen doors. A hinge maker says that people who formerly bought new hinges when the pins got lost now save the hinges and merely by new pins. Such thrift will not boom industry and restore prosperity immediately. but it is one of the ways to win back. Solveney. lf-suffieicney, making ends meet, come be. fore riches There is a sort of spiritual value in it. too. It builds character, and character is the basis of any durable well-beins.

Be Gentle To Cops

In Evanston. III. there is a campaign for more kindnc. and consideration to police men, An alderman. who is sponsoring a good will movement between the police and the public, urges citizens r." 10 refer to policemen any more by {, vulgar and humiliatng terms as "eops, bulls and "flatfcct" He wants residents to get better acquainted with the patrolmcn> and traffic officers and promote more friendly spirit. The police, he is sure, will do their part.
 Such efforts may be particularly needed in college town like Evanston. For some curious reason, an atmosphere of learning and culture is particularly hard on police. men. The students treatment of the off. ecrs of the law is often cruel and unusual. The reformcrs should direct his appeals mainly 10 them. Possibly even students have grievances. There is a type of police. man found almost everywhere who is too much given to "bawlng out civilians. But happily this type is passing. It is time for an era of mutual good will, except where actual crime is concerned.

Nonpr rsisanship

A group of leading republicans and dsm- oerau have appealed to both houses of Con- grsss to ''Iay aside every form of partisan ship and possible partisan advantage. and quickly unite to adopt balanced federal budget which shall be economically sound. fair to every group and calling. and without discrimination or privilege or class or sec tional advantage of any kind" It is large order. Senate leaders have taken umbrage at the implied charge of playing politics. insisting that there has been no partisanship whatever in the handling of these matters. Outsiders may be allowed their own opin ion. However. 1t may be. there will be no harpins on the past if Congress will put patriotism before politics from now on.
 Economic soundness and fairness. without special privilege to any class or section. is even more difficult than nonpartisanship. lt is not fair 10 expect absolute wisdom from Congress. Yet there is rather general agreement among the more intelligent membership of both parties. regarding prin- eples of federal taxation and expenditure. which Congress might heed more than it has yet done. and might gain praise and even political profit from needing. There is go- ing to be no credit and no advantage to either political party this year if Congress fails to do better job than it has yet shown signs of doing
