PIERIvE, 8. D., Jan. 14. (Special Tele

are asking that the Springfield Normal
bo abolished as a normal school and
changed to the state training school for
Kirlp, separating the sexes, and leaving
tho boys at Planklnton, and changing the

Three bills already Introduced and an

the employment of relatives by county

Iowa E(ecutive Says War Will Re
sult in Creation of Federa
tion of the World.
STATE HAS GREAT FUTURE
DES MOINBS, la., Jan. 14.-The feder
atlon of the world, practical disarmament
of the great powers and a long step for
ward for tho "brotherhood of man," are
amcng the probable result of the present
Kuropean war, according to Governor
Georgo W. Clarke In hla inaugural ad
dress here today.
Despite the gloom of the. European war,
the governor prophesied that mankind
would bo better for it, ln tho end. "It Is
an appalling price to pay," he said, "hut
beyond this world war lies, in all prob
ability the death of militarism, the prac
tical disarmament of the great powers
of the earth, tho removal from tho people
of the crushing burdens of great armies
and navlee, the disappearance of heredi
tary rulers and the entranco of more
perfect democracies."
The governor spoke hopefully, of tho
growing observance of tho humanities
ln all walks of llfo and particularly In
publio office. He urged greater co-ordt-nation'tn
industries and agricultural pur
suits, and particularly the conservation
of Iowa soil.
In concluding his address, the governor
said:
Constructive Work. Needed.
"And now, In cloving, I desire to cay
that I am very hopeful that a fine record
may be made by the Thlrtylslxth general
assembly. I am anxious to do whatever
I can by co-operating with you in a
proper way to assist ln promoting such
a result .When the work ia done I trust
It Will be distinguished for ita important.
constructive character and for the care,
thoughtfulness and accuracy with which
it waa done. Thore U no greater, no
more responsible work than that of tha
lawmaker. A state's place ln the 'world.
Its degree of enlightenment, must ever,
in a very largo measure, be determine
by its laws. The future of Iowa, ln the
large sense, in its public policy, with ref
erence to the things that make for its
growth and development will and must
find expression In its legislation. What
ever Iowa may have and be in the futare
that will be of benefit to mankind must
depend upon us who today call the state
ours. Our obligation is not simply to
today. It is a thousand times more to
the years that are to come to the Iowa
that Is to be to the Iowa that we desire
it to be.
Look Far Ahead.
"We ought to a far-ahead look. The
foundations ought to be enduring. What
are these roads, these schools, these ques
tions of social well being, these questions
o? publio health, these questions that go
to the enlargement of lifo ln the best
and deepest sense what ro hey to the
future, should have consideration. We
are not worth fiur time and space here
unless we 'are looking constantly for
ward to a coming of a better day. Right
good questions to ask oneself are, la this
the little or large view I am taking? Am
I consulting my own selfish Interest or
the welfare of all? What lf everybody
were Just like me? What would my com
munity, my state be if everybody were
to adopt my view which way would they
bo pulling, forward or backward?
"Down in the rotunda In letters of gold
is Inscribed tha sentiment: 'Iowa our
eyes have been permitted to see only the
beginning of her glory. It U true, and
it doth not yet appear what she shall
be. What a splendid vision rises. How
much depends on us. HoJt her not In
any of the great steps forward she haa
taken. With unstinted devotion to her
and her greatness may you do your
work."

President of Princeton Says Inter
collegiate Sports Should Be
Controlled by Students.
CAPTAINS SHOULD DIRECT GAMES
PRINOICTON. N. J Jan. U.-frrsldent
John Greer Hibben of Princeton univer
sity In 'his annual report, presented to
the board of trustees today, expressed
the hope that paid coaches In athletics
would soon disappear. Athletics sro suf
fering from an over-organised system of
coaching, he said, and ho believed that,
more responsibility should be placed on
team captains.
If undergraduates should be released
from "unnatural Ciomlnation of their
sports by graduate coaches," he suld. In
tercollegiate sport would be liberated from
the abnormal Inc.uhns of a superimposed
system which tends to mako puppets of
the players." V
President HIbben In the report said:
"Our athletics, not only in Princeton,
but throughout the country, are suffer
ing from an over-organlxed system of
coaching. I hope that the time may soon
come when the puid coach will disappear.
He and his ever-Increasing number of as
sistants, all ot whose expenses prove, a
heavy drain upon the uthletlo trenaury,
and tend to keep up the gnte receipts of
intercollegiate contests' at an abnormal
figure, render Ihtercnllnglate sport an un
duly expensive affair.
Captain Hhould Command.
"Particularly In the game of foot ball,
the captain of the team should be tho
sole responsible person for the manage
ment of his men, devising and directing
their play in practice games, so that In
the critical situations of a great contest
he and his team will rise to the occasion
and .win or lce with honor.
"It Is quite absurd when one comes to
think of 'H. that the 'control of the team
in all preliminary gamen should be In the
hnnds of a body of men who are rele
gated' to the side lines when the rlay is
on.
"After"" alT! it Is an undergraduate af
fair and the games should he planned
and played ' by undergraduates. If you
place upon them the responsibility they
will respond to It, for It Is certain that
responsibility always provokes efficiency.
That men may be resourceful in time of
emergency,- they must be schooled In the
art of resourcefulness by some stimula
tion of. their latent powers of Ingenuity.
Coaching System I'nnatoral.
"If we release our undergraduates from
the unnatural domination of their sports
by, graduate coaches, and from the con
fusion of many minds and voices In the
direction of their activities, we will sim
plify the whole athletic situation and lib
erate intercollegiate sport from the ab
normal incubus of a superimposed sys
tem which tends to make puppets of the
players, limiting the spontaneity and free
play of their, natural initiative."
