It la not tha war which la to ba thanked for it. Athletic training has done the work. It la aald by Army and Navy Life that thia country gives far more atten tion t A thai rthvilpol Aiiltur n Ita Ml ftrs than does either Great Britain. t Franca or Germany. While they require a dally setting up exerolse similar to our own, these sun calisthenics and other prescribed, forma of muaclatstreich Ing are supplemented in this country by athletic sports. - . These are not compulsory. They do not need to be. . They have been entered into so heartily that every post of any alse baa lta organisation which backs Ita track team, Ita football eleven or Ita baseball nine.- This la Just what the war department wntthnL toda It hai organised a bureau for the . sncourage ' ment of athletics. r..

When tha pigskin season opens - the field becomes a footbath oval. The average soldier would not be much ' of an American If he were not fond of - baseball, while he makes a first-class man on the football team, because the dally routine keeps him hard,' yet wiry and supple, and gives Him plenty of wind. Within the last two years college elevens have sought matchea with mili tary teams, because they get such "fine practice," to quote the trainer, but the practice baa more than once ended in soldiers scoring every "potltt."

Few cities in this country can boast of more amateur ball clubs than Portland and snother thing is the length of the season in this city. The young mea play the national - game nearly every day in the year, only stopping when the weather won't permit a match. The flrat games of this year were played two weeks ego and the Tunlle et large will soon be formally notified that the season Is on In earnest. "If fighters would quit the ring, after they get two good lickings there would be better fighters, fewer fatalities and room in lunatic asylums." said Tom Sharkey in New York the other day. "On the level." continued the sailor, "there's more -crasy mea in the ring today than people have any idea of, and it's all because they Just love to get licked I ..quit the game whnI thought there was no chance to be a champion. There's no use sticking . at the. game, losing this week, winning the next .and taking a flyer at being champion. These fellows go crssy be fore tliey ever get near the top, and It's the same crowd that causes all tha trouble. They go crasy in the ring. fight mad and think ghosts are beating themr Every man Is goof in tha ring until he gets one or two hard beatings. and then he's dead So far as fighting is concerned. All of our best men have fought one or two great battles and then have gone back., John L Sullivan quit the first time he was licked. John had the right idea. He met a better man and let it go at that Corbet t lost to Fits at Carson City In a grueMng battle, and was never good after that Fits never came back after Jeff beat him that second time.

Students j.-' , . President James El Sullivan of the Amateur Athletic union Is a strong ad vocate of long distance races. He is desirous of seeing this country as well represented In tills particular line, as In other events which form the usual field and track meet programs, and aa a result the development of' Ameri can long distance runners will receive the special attention of the new execu tive head of the A. A. U. ., ..-,'. ' For. many years America has easily led at ahort-dlatsnce and in-Jlold e but until quite reoently the longer dis tances have been practically neglected by American athletic clubs. With the sterling ' performances of Kelvin W. Sheppard, William O. Frank, George V. Bonbag, and others of almost . equal note, the prospects for the development of some good men to take the measure of A. A. Shrubb and other noted long distance runners in England, are most promising. A decade ago, .George W. Orton . of ' Pennsylvania and . "Oleic Grant of Harvard led the field of Am erican long distance - runners, but since that time there has been a disposition among athletes to fight shy of the ne cessarily severe strain of distance- runs. The Intercollegiate Cross Country as sociation has done much toward im proving the condition of affairs, but much yet remains to be dons by the Amateur ' Athletlo union to carry the sport to that degree of perfection that will make American athletes preemi nent at all distances. ; At the recent cross country cham pionships, big fields started in both the senior and junior events, but this is aa exception to the general rule, and ath letlo dubs have failed to encourage the sport by placing a long distance event on the programa of athletlo meets. Ths absence of any really good men to make an interesting race has much to do with this neglect All this will be changed If tha plans of President Sul livan .are carried out In speaking of the subject recently. the head of . the Amateur Athletic union aald: " ' . "There is no reason in the world why America-should not hold Its own In long distance running as well as In other sports. Our athletes are equaly physi cally to those of England, where this sport flourishes at. its beat We only need to arouse more Interest in long distance contests, and get our runners to train sanely for these events in or der to hold our own. and I am going to work on this particular feature dur ing my term of office to see if ths Amateur Athletic union cannot give !gttne or- atnlettr-goonj-htctrt Is. apparently needed to accomplish re sults. - ijf,course we cannot expect to equal the performances of ths English run ners right off the reel, for cross coun try running Is an athletic Institution of long standing in England, and thous ands of men and boys participate in the runs which are held in every town and hamlet the year around. Under the circumstances It is not at all surpris ing that our conslns should surpass us in this respect for there are 100 dis tance runners In England for every one in this country, Furthermore,, they run ever there It months in the year, and the going is never so bad that they cannot get up a cross country run on short notice. There Is no season for sport Over there. They run at all times and enjoy It During the past two or three years there have been ef forts made to put cross country run ning on s form basis, but our failure appears to be In the fact that even thoselntereeted tn the game devote but A few weeks tn the fall and spring con stitute the season, whereas we should run ths year 'round if we are to equal tha English at their own game. Activity a Cornell. N "At Cornell university they devote more attention to -cross country run ning than the majority of American colleges and the result is shown In the intercollegiate championships and the long distance races at the intercollegi ate athletlo meets. In the past seven years Cornell has won all but one of the championship cross country events, while her runnrs have always-figured prominently In the distance races at the intercollegiate track meets. W. - B. Schutt now a Rhodes scholar at Ox ford university, holds the two-mile record of 1:40, made In 1901. The athletic clubs have always developed some excellent runners from time to time, who could reel off from two to five miles In fast time, but unfortu nately not enough attentton ! given to this branch of athletics, and eo far as numbers and class go the English have far the better of the argument when It comes to such event a . "I em convinced that we can produce just as fast distance men on this side of the water as me other, and I am going to do all' I can to encourage a revival in- this- branch -of athletics.- The Olympla games, which will be held 1n London in 1 tot, will afford an excel lent opportunity to match our beat dis tance runners against ths" English cracks, but before we oan hops to win our athletes must excel their present performances In this line. There is a big field open for the athletes who will take no this line, and In addition to the honor which will come to successful long distance runners, the training will be found to be more beneficial than that which results . from some other lines of sport If cross country was a popular In America aa It is In Eng land there Is no reason why we should not develop distance runners capable of traveling ss fast and aa far as those abroad, bat at preeent B-mest- bs-ed' mltted that, taking the situation as a whole, we are behind in bis psrucuiar department of athletics. have a large number of players en gaged for next season and hope to get a pennant winner- from-the bunch.

The committee consisted of Judge A. L. Fraaer, W. M. Cake, George W. Hoyt, Morris T. Dunne, Arnold Rothwell, Lloyd Wentwortb, George W. McMillan and J. N. Teal. Ex-Judge' W. M. Cake addressed the delegation, ' saying in part: - "The need for publio playgrounds In Portland la one that presents - Itself without argument as one worthy of careful consideration. Our plan is to form a legal entity, giving It power to levy taxes, condemn land and establish playgrounds tn the city. The legislative body is the only power that can create another body and give it power to levy taxes and condemn land. - . "A quarter-mill tax for the first five years would be sufficient ' giving an annual revenue for the' playgrounds of 150,000. During the second rive years, a levy of one-eighth of a mill would bo enough.' and during the third five years we think . one-tenth of a mill would be sufficient - "A playground commission should be created with proper powers, and then aubmlt the plan to the people for their ratification at the next election.

He said that they should be equipped with open-air gymnasiums, with baseball and football fields, and room for chil dren of all ages to romp and play. Ha cited Instances of gangs of boys about whom numerous complaints had been made to the Juvenile court, 'the boys had then been supplied with base ball paraphernalia and fields, to play In, and no complalnta had ever slnbe been lodged against them. - "Gangs . of boys gather at first on the street corners, simply t because they have no other place to go," aald the Judge. "Soon lUay get to smoking, swearing, telling vile stories and then Into all sorts of mischief. Tou can break up any gang of bad boys anywhere by giving them .some thing to do that they like to do, and there Is no boy living . who does not like to engage In athletlo sports." Mrs. Mills K.
