WILL CLASS FOOTBALL BE REVIVED?
With the gradual retuin of university customs and auditions
to a normal basis, the university public is beginning to wonder hat
will be done about class football this year. That this interesting iorm
of class rivalry was dropped last year and the year before occasioned
little surprise and comment. Those were war times and class aotlvi
ties and class sports were largely relegated to the background while
more serious forms of war work took precedence.
The annual class football acrap,uaed to be a feature of fall sport
which attracted the attention of the entire university. A spirit ot
competition and rivalry was engendered between all clases which
worked for the good of athletics In general and added spice and test
to the gridiron game. Aside from Its benefits In promoting class spir
it, it provided abundant opportunity for athletics to get out and de
fend the honor of their class In football. Men who might not be
eligible for the varsity squad but who played the game for the love
of it, had a chance here.
This year there is no reason why football should not be encour
aged. There Is more material here than ever before and many good
players would be glad to don the moleskins to help out their o.ass.
Class presidents and heads of class athletic committees should keep
this in mind. It is not too early to begin now. Early practice may be
a determining factor when it comes to a championship battle.
By all means let class football be revived.
THE COLLEGE DRIVES
Now Princeton has launched its drive, which Is to Insure thai lis
teaching equipment shall be less inadeqquate, its teachers less la
mentably underpaid. It is important that every American, whether
or not a college man, shall realize what these drives mean.
To the individual graduates they mean an average contribution
of between three and four hundred dollars. The 36,000 Harvard grad
uates have set out for a minimum of $11,000,000, which figures our at
305 each. Princeton, with a considerably smaller number of grad
uates, has valiantly placed her minimum higher, at $14,000,000. Ot
the graduates, moreover, fully a quarter are themselves teacher3 or,
what is more unfortunate financially, ministers. And these drives
' come on the the heels of a series of Liberty Loans to which as a class
the salaried brain workers were faithful contributors.
To the country as a whole the drives mean something even more
notable, though it canot be expressed so deflfinitely in figures. During
the war about 75 per cent of the college graduates in service were
officers. In three cases out of four, to be a college man was to be an
officer. Stating the case from the opposite point of view, of the offi
cers in our forces nearly 90 per cent, were college men. In nine cases
out of ten, to become an officer it was necessary to be educated. Serv
ice in wartime Is, however, only an Incident In the great purpose .or
which the colleges are maintained. With the exception of West Point
and Annapolis, our institutions -of higher learning are conducted Tor
the needs of peace. Their pre-eminent service in the war is cited
only to Indicate how vital this peace service is. A nation without a
steadily flowing stream of young men of the highest moral inspiration,
of the highest mental training, would be as backword in the struggle
of life as an army waging war without trained officers.
College graduates, being mainly on fixed salaries, have suffered
more keenly than most from the present crisis, and it was pointed
out that the nation should feel bound in duty to give just support to
an institution which is obviously national In its service. The sugges- '
tlon'was summarily rejected. National support means political con
trol, and the men behind the drives declared that to be morally
strong and intellectually well directed our universities must be free.
There have been times of late, and there will be other timea in
the future, when the spirit of our republican Institutions seems to
have suffered at palsy; when every form of wild propaganda, in
flamed by selfish interest, seems rampant, triumphant. The leaders
among our men of education stand firm in the larger vision, the abun
dant generosity, of the true American tradition. Where they carry
the standard others wil not hesitate to follow. The New York Times.
