REED TO FOSTER ALL ATHLETICS Two Fields and Two Gymna siums Will Be Among Finest in United States. FACULTY TO FAVOR PLANS President Foster, of New College, Declarea Intercollegiate Athletic Will Xot Be Allowed for First Tbreo Year. Tr. William T. rooter, prealdent of Reed Collage, ynaterdey made public an official statement of the athletlo policy of the Institution in which he says ath letic of many kinds will be fostered and encouraged. Intercollegiate athletics. however, will not be permitted for the first three yeara. a'.d will later be left to the dlacretlon of the faculty. Ry the edict of Mr. Poster It is not meant that there will be an Intercolle giate ban, nor la there any desire to discourage athletic of tbis kind. Th policy to be Instituted will be th en couratrement of outdoor sports for men and women alike. Reed College will have the finest ath letic fields In the State of Oregon If not in tbe Northwest: In fact. It will be one of the few colleges In the United Slates which have athletic field for both men and women. Speaking of th athletlo plan President Foster said: Two Athletlo Field Planned. "In general, tha policy of Reed Col leg will be to promot the physical health of all ita students, men and women alike, by encouraging participa tion in outdoor sports of many kind. Tb present plans for grounds and build ings Include a gymnasium and an ath letlo Held for women, aa well a a gym nasium and an athletic field for men. Tbe faculty wtll be for the most part men who enjoy vigorous outdoor sports and regularly take part in them and can enter sympathetically Into th sport of tha students. "For the first thr year, however, there will be no Intercollegiate athletic. Thl will be necessary, if for no other reason, because the college expect to admit no upperclar men and to make Its standards of admission such that the first claase probably will b small. Interclass content will be encouraged from the beginning and the policy of the institution, aa far a athletic Is con cerned, will be well satisfied tf sufficient encouragement la given to prompt every student to participate every day In out door aporte In the right apirlt. "Tbe later policy will be left to th dlacretlon of the faculty, with thla pro viso, that If there la aver any conflict between the moral and Intellectual In tereM of the college and the Interest of athletic, there la no queatlon which will be obliged to suffer. Opinion Aro Varied. "Whether Intercollegiate games should b utterly condemned la an open ques tion; wide differences of opinion there are and will continue to be. But the char re that tha groaa exaggeration of nearly all competitive sports la now working Incalculable harm to schools and colleges and universities Is based on the dally experience of those .who are most competent to Judge. Athletic will never abundantly Justify themselves un til they call the great body of student from th grandstand to th game. It 1 not too much to declare that the frantlo use of the lungs under the incentive of organised cheering t but an Imperfect uostltuta for all-round exercise. "The excesses of athletic are now notorious. Surely, it la not th remedy, but the will and the courage to apply It which are lacking. Ind'vlduale are loath to brook tbe acorn of a public which la ready at any time to become almost fran tic over Intercollegiate aports. Faculties declare that they wish to cut down th schedule but dare not do so when th advertising value of th game I so great, and competition for student 1 ao keen. To thla there la one reply: no means of attracting students can be Jus tified which I Inconsistent with th beat care of tbe students who are attracteo. This truth will one day prevail. Then the prospective student will not loom so large In faculty councils, and the notion that mere numbers I any cri terion of tha worth of an Institution will have found Ita historical place In the entry company of educational aburHtle. Then. too. w shall be nearer the Ideal supremacy of Intellectual and moral in terests over physical interest la all In stitution of education." LEAGUE'S NAME IS CHANGED Oregon Inter-Colleglato Basketball Organization Hag Six Teams. CHEMAWA. Or., Feb. 17. (Special.) At a meeting of the offleera and man agers of the Willamette Valley Basket ball League It waa decided to change the name of the association to the Ore- t,..wiiariafM Tianketball League.

HE DELAYS PRACTICE PORTLANTJ TEAM ENJOYS QUEER CALIFORNIA WEATHER. Arlctt, Homesick, Deserts McCredio and Ball Will Go East Koestner Will Soon Join. SANTA MA T.I A. Cal.. Feb. 27. (Spe cial.) Despite the cold wind blowing here this afternoon. Manager McCredle and his Beaver took advantage of the cessation of a severe rain and hair storm to work out for' two hour to day. The morning practice was dispensed with because of a hall storm that would have created consternation In Port land, for hailstone the size of a little finger nail descended and it waa un safe to venture into the storm If one cared anything about the scarring of face and hand. No new arrivals were recorded at the training quarter today and the only event of any importance was the desertion of young Al Arlett, the clever Ban Francisco boy. who showed up so well in Sunday's rame. Arlett packed up hi thing Sunday night and. while the rest of the players, as well aa McCredle, had turned In. he took a late train out of town and left no word of explanation. McCredle attrib utes Arlett desertion to homeelck neas, which la the most likely explana tion, for he was well liked by all the players and McCredle ' was especially pleased with his showing. Elmer Koestner wired from his East ern home that he was ready to start as soon aa he received his ticket, and McCredle immediately telegraphed the pitcher his transportation. Koestner wtll reach here Saturday at the latest. Neal Ball also wrote McCredle to the effect that he was going East In a few days, which would Indicate that the holdout player would carry out his threat not to play with Portland this season, but the Portland manager has not given up hope of th player re. porting eventually. However, McCre dle says that if Ball goes East with out signing hi Portland contract he can pay hi own fare back to the Coast, should he decide to play in or ganized ball this season.
