spirit of rivalry and contest,' which le ds the real
charm to athletics, is lacking in all of these summer
sports except tennis, and it appears as though there
is a consequent apathy. In the regular terms, the
intramural department provides divers sports, which
furnish this rivalry and which draw into them the
majority of the students, but unfortunately, the in-
tramural director is away for the summer. How-
ever, it does seem as if something in this line could
be undertaken' by the athletic association, or the
students, themselves. There are many branches of
athletics, which could be organized and which would
interest persons who otherwise would take no exer-
cise at all. A golf tournament might bring out
those who love old Colonel Bogey's game; organiza-
tion of teams for a soft and hard ball league would
prove a lure to hundreds; rugby football would
attract others ; and a swimming meet might draw
more to the river.
Many of the summer students are interested in
such things. Let's hear something'about it.
Editorial Comment
WORKLESS, HEATLESS, LIGHTLESS DAYS
Coal operators and dealers are steadily repeating
the 'warning that unless there is immediate relief
from the car shortage at the mines, workless, heat-
less, lightless days will be so common next winter
that the similar experiences of war days will be com-
pletely overshadowed. One of the largest operators
of the country is cited as authority for the statement
that twenty mining properties in Illinois which
normally produce 50,ooo tons a day have for months
averaged only about one-fourth that output.
Lack of cars is cited as the sole reason. Cars
whch cost $8oo each before the war are now $3,300
each. Even at this price their production cannot fill
the demand. At this period,.when production and
transportation should be at their best, and reserves
should be piling up for the winter, the output of
coal is barely equal to the current demand. The
warning of serious difficulties next winter therefore
seems well. founded. But the shortage of coal cars
cannot be attributed solely to depreciation of rolling
stock or to high cost of replacements. Automobile
manufacturers are driving many new cars to mar-
ket, but at the same time they are usingopen top
cars extensively for long distance shipments. In
this, it would seem, they are showing singular lack
of foresight. These cars should be hauling coal, not
automobiles. If they do not haul coal now instead
of automobiles it seems certain that there will be no
coal available for the manufacture of automobiles
later.
Manufacturers would do well to study this situa-
tion and agree on methods whereby all the available
coal cars should be used exclusively for transporta-
tion of coal. Neither the mines nor'the railroads
seem to be able to solve the difficulty alone. Unless
every interest involved cooperates it appears that
the problem will go unsolved and the heatless, work-
less, lightless days will 'develop from a warning to
a reality.-.Chicago Tribu'ne
