i^v^EWCB PCRRV New York. March 13. ? Minor sports as such no longer exist at Cornell. Th?*y tttvr b??en merged , with the major sports organization j and hereafter there will be no dis tinctions between sports at the Itha ca University as Uj *helr bel~g Jf major or minor importance. Investigation of this action, how ever. brings to light the fact that it! will not produce a change' in thej sports themselves unless. Indeed,) some transformation in the relative; status develops among the students. | There is a great deal in a name, and ' in course of time the very absence} of the minor designation may affect . the undergraduate estimate of some j of the suorts formerly so classed. None \he less, the change at Cor-! nell is essentially a fiscal one. What' will happen later remains to be seen.j For that matter what assurance Is' there at ^ny university that the fourt (?ports ni w regarded as major, viz.! football, crew, track and baseball, | will always occupy chief place In the undergraduate esteem. As a matter | of fact, basketball, hockey. La-i Croase, soccer are variously classed | as of major Importance at various' institutions. It would reem that interest on the part of students, alumni and the pub-l lie are chiefly, if not solely, influ- ! ential In defining a sport as of ma- j Jor or minor importance. Cornell would take another step forward now were she to hold thatj the students who win a position up-j orn a team In any sport whatever is entitled to tht varsity letter. Thus ; at one stroke would be done way a ! lot of hocus pocus and unjust and In-' defensible standards. TALK OF DANGER IN DELANEY BOUT BUNK ; n> FAIIt PI-AY (Copyright. 1(21. By Tit* Ad??ne?)

Many seem to think that the time has past when the former : service man needs a bonus; but I ! know two or three hundred dollars | in cash would be a godsend to me and I believe that many anothor j former service man Is In pretty near- ? ly my position. I just wish that you , and others who are opposing the bonus would read the following j newspaper report of a speech in fa- J vor of the bonus recently made to a gathering of former service men by j General John R. McQuigg, a man ' who, on account of his rank, was himself disqualified to receive it but) who favored it for his comrades In ? arms in foreign service during the: World War: "Adjusted comp< nsation is a pro cess by which we are trying to have ' the American soldier placed on the! same financial basis as the ordinary; common laborer during the war. For Instance, a Mtdier got his $1 a day while the white wings in the city were drawing their $5, and all we! want is the difference paid to the sol-j Her in adjusted compensation. "What is the justice of paying a I man in the arsenal $15 a day for; making a ritle, with bis eight-hour day, good food, clothing, etc.. and paying $1 a day to the man who car- 1 lied it and who had to serve for 24; hours a day, days at a time and who ; had no good food for days at a time', and faced all the danger of war at| the front. Can you imagine a buck private telling a second lieutenant his eight 'hours were up and that he was through for the day?" Tracing the history of adjusted compensation, the speaker pointed out that it was not originated by the; American Legion. "Adjusted com pensation is one of those legislative problems that someone else started und then gave us to finish. "It sought to do something to ad-, Just the pay of the man in uniform ; with that of the man who was not." Then he held before his audience tfn imaginary $30, the pay of a private in the World War. "Fifteen dollars of that went to' his dependents. Five dollars or morel of it went for war risk insurance.1 Five at least went for Liberty bondj. j If the "private was unfortunate enough to salute a second lieutenant! Improperly or didn't salute a major I general driving past him at 40 miles] an hour he was taken before a court | martial. If convicted ? and they al-i ways were convicted ? another $5 j was taken from him," the general declared. "Someone has called our attention to the fact that soldiers "Wore sub sisted, clothed and quartered while In service. So they were; but that cost figured on quartermaster corps; figures wh^n we went to war was just 83 cents a day. Thus the pri vate soldier got $1.83 a day while | the 'white wings' were paid $5. "Let us see how economically our war was administered. There were) 568 odd horses and mules in the ! Army during the war. and one of the contracts for supplies, actually exe cuted, called for f?, 000, 000 pairs of spurs. That number would have put la pair of spurs on every infantry man, every artilleryman, every cav I alryman, every sailor and every avi ator and leave 2,000,000 pairs in re I serve. j "We're still paying for those spurs," he declared. I "Another contract was for sad dles. There were 85,000 saddle i horses In the Army, and this coun-j try bought enough saddles to put 11 L BRONCHITIS I ?

He was the only raw material the Government didn't have to pay for. America was the last to get into the war. She got more out of it, before she got in. while she was in and since she came out than any other nation. "She is the richest nation on earth. What has she dope for th-? returned soldier?

Ninety odd members of fraternities at Wake Forest College averaged 86 1-8 in scholarship for the fall term, ac cording to figures prepared In the office of the examiner. Only three of the total of the fraternity mem bership failed to pass their work. 1 A comparison of the grades of the fraternity men with those of non-j fraternity men is now being made. Preliminary work in the comparison indicates that the fraternity men at- ! tained a general average several points higher than that of non fraternity men. Of the eight Greek letter organiza-1 Hons Pi Beta Nu, local law frater nity, attained the highest average with 9 2.1 Among the purely social organizations Chi Tau led with an with an average of 90.6. The grades for the other fraternities were as' follows: Alpha Phi Omega 88.6, j Kappa Psi 86.2. Theta Pi 84.2, Kap-j pa. Alpha. 83.6- Phi Kappa Beta, 38.1; and D. V. L. 81.7.

About one third of the total amount; came in pennies and dimes from the! countless boys and girls all over thej North Carolina for whom Aycock 1 had widened the door of Educational' Opportunity, while the remainder! expresses the love of the men and ? women, son and daughters of North! Carolina who followed him in his! great campaign and wished to ex- J press their apprecitian of his life and > service. t The second purpose of committee! was that the memorial should not be| the mere statue of a man. a mero'j representation of Aycock's form and features, explained Dr. Joyner. but! that in some beautiful and enduring; way it should symbolize the ideals! and aspirations for which Aycock] stood and for which North Cardinal stood under his leadership: that! through the memorial Aycock should still live and speak his high mes sage to all succeeding generations of North Carolinians. Through the! genlu* of the artist as expressed in two historical panels reinforced by somtr cf Aycock's own eloquent words, this hope has been realized. Contribution To Art The third hope of the committee. Dr. Joyoer said, was that the mem orial should be a genuine contribu tion to the art treasures of North Carolina and the South. To this end the committee secured the ser vices of Gutzon Dorglum. who is ranked as one of the world's great est sculptors. Already distinguished for having wrought out some of Am erica's greatest statues. It Is felt by by many that his supreme work, the Stone Mountain Confederate Mem orial, will rank with the Pyramids for majesty and sublimity. Avoiding i a traditional smoothness and over-! emphasis of detail. Borglum has done his Work in the style of his great master. Rotlin, achieving ef fects by bold, rugged, and vigorous outlines, giving his statues an ex pression of life, force and virility rather than serene passive elegance. The complete memorial costs ap proximately $20,000 of which one third was contributed by the school children of the state. The base Is semi-circular in shape and stands' about five feet high. It has two pan els one on each side of a center square on which Is ereoted the statue of Aycock himself, the statue tower ing about seven feet abeve the high est wall of the semi-circle. On the front the right panel Is a teacher and her pupils, representing education. I Under the panel Is the quotation from Aycock, "The equal right of every child born on earth to have the opportunity to burgeon out all there is within him." While on the left i panel which represents the State of North Carolina is the quotation "I would hare __ .all of frur people be-, lleve in their power to accomplish as much as can be done anywhere on earth by any peorple." On the back of the monument in the left panel is the quotation. "I would have all our people believe in the possibilities of North Carolina; in the strength of her men, the purity of her women, and their power to acccrmplish as much as can be done anywhere on earth by any people. lTrge<l Dissatisfaction "I would have them to become dissatified with small things: to be anxious for higher and better things, to yearn after real greatness to seek after knowledge, to do the right thing In order that they may be what they ought. "I would have the strong to bear; the burdens of the weak and to lift' up the weak and make them strong.; teaching man everywhere that renli strength consists not in serving our selves, hut in dointr for others." The quotation of Aycock on the right panel is, "Equal. That is tho word. On that word I plant myself and my party ? the equal right of every child born on earth to have the opportunity to burgeon out all there is within him. "No man is so high that the law shall not be enforced against him. and no man Is so low that it shall not reach down to him and lift him up if may be and set him on his feet auain and bid him godspeed to better things." "There is but one way to serve ' people well, and that is to do the | right thing, trusting them as they may ever be trusted, to approve the, things which count for the better-!, ment of the state."
