TO BOOM SPORTS
AT END OF WAR
New Type of Athlete Expect# to
Spring Up Following
Conflict
New York, May 8.-Although the war
has eliminated the major portion of
athletic competition throughout the
European countries, sport has not been
entirely abandoned and there is plenty
of evidence to support the belief that
there will be a general revival of ath-
letics following the declaration of
peace. Many close observers of the
physical condition of the troops have
stated as their opinion that the train-
ing necessary to fit the young men
for the modern battlefield has pro-
duced a new type of European man-
hood, which will instinctively turn to
sports with extraordinary zest as soon
as arms are laid aside.
Competition on War Fronts
It is a matter of record that many
forms of athletic competition are con-
stantly being indulged in on all fronts,
just back of the firing lines, and these
games are particularly encouraged by
both the French and English army
authorities. Football, baseball, golf,
cricket, wrestling, boxing, and foot
racing are all participated in by the
soldiers off duty and it is said that
some remarkable performances are
witnessed from time ,to time when the
handicaps under which the games are

Columbia Alumnus Fosters Athletic Phi beta Kappa

For more than two years Dr. George
L. Meylan, head of the physical educa-
tion department at Columbia, has been
working on plans to institute at Col-
umbia an intercollegiate honorary so-
ciety, corresponding to Phi Beta Kap-
pa. Such societies already exist. at
Yale, Minnesota, and several other uni-
versities.
Last week such an organization was
made possible at Columbia by Gustav-
us T. Kirby, prominent alumnus and
now chairman of the advisory commit-
tee of the I. C. A. A. A. A. Mr. Kirby
offered to pay for the insignia and tro-
phies to be given to the club and its
members, and his offer has been ac-
cepted officially by the university com-
mittee 'on athletics and by the depart-i
ment of physical education.
Under the terms of the organization
membership will be limited to those
athletes who can qualify in easy try-
outs in several events, especially pro-
vided for the track men. In a letterl
to Coach T. N. Metcalf of the track1
team, Mr. Kirby wrote as follows:
That every student, alumnus and1
officer of the university be invited to4

take part in the following tests: To
run 100 yards, to run one mile, to
broad jump, to bar vault for height,
to swim 100 yards, to climb a rope.
That anyone who responds to such
invitation be given during any one
week as many trials at each event
as he may desire.
The standards are as follows: 100-
yard dash, 12 seconds; mile 'run, 6
minutes; bar vault, 5 feet; broad
jump, 14 feet; rope climbing, 20
feet, cross over three ropes, and
come down the fourth; 100-yard
swim, 2/ minutes.
Mr. Kirby is of the opinion that such
a club would aid in military training
and is therefore most desirable at the
present time at Columbia.
Columbia Spectator sees in the form-
ation of the organization indications
of a more universial participation in
athletics on the part of all rather than
a few students. Commenting editorial-
ly, under the caption, "Athletes All,"
the Spectator says in part:
"Ever since football was restored
here at this university two years ago
Columbia athletic authorities have had

uppermost in their minds the idea of
universal indulgence in athletics on
the part of all the undergraduate stu-
dents. Various plans have been sug-
gested from time to time, but each
failed to take into account the lack of
adequate facilities on Morningside
Heights.
"At last a really practical sugges-
tion has been received, and the offer
which Mr. Kirby has made to the Ath-
letic association is a very happy one.
As he states, 'It is wise to encourage
a few star athletes to the end that en-
thusiasm for competition shall be
maintained and interest in sport
aroused, but is is far more important
to encourage athletic efficiency on the
part of all to make them better able
to carry the burden of life and serve
their fellows and the state.'
"With this purpose most prominent
the offer is exceedingly apropos at the
present time. The country as a whole
has just awakened to a realization of
the need of preparedness, and Mr. Kir-
by's plan aims to further this move-
ment as far as physique of Columbia
students is concerned."

If white skirts have ever been at all desirable or convenient in a summer
wardrobe, they are absolutely indespensable this year.
Therefore they have been made in so many attractive models-in so many
degrees of simplicity and fluffiness-with so many kinds of belts and pockets
and trimmings.
Gabardines-famous and favored because they are both easy to launder
and extremely serviceable; figures, revived for a certain engaging freshness
and crispness; cotton poplins, attractively soft and less "crushable" than the
usual run of white washable skirts--and still other materials.
In addition to all white skirts there are some with bright colored printings
on belt and pocket-and some with all-over patterns.
They have shirred and plain patch pockets, and heaps of novelty ones-
belts shirred and plai nand narrow and wide-and scores of unusual touches
that take them out of the ordinary white-skirt class and make them distinctively
