its greatest importance, because any-
thing crooked, or mercenary, or in the
remotest sense dishonorable, at a center
of college feeling. will find its way into
all the parts and through all the subtle
channels of sentiment, and will poison
the whole life from one end to the
Other.
“You already know how far the
arrangements have proceeded for recog-
nizing, as they never have been officially
recognized before, these athletic inter-
ests in their true place in university
life. Not only have arrangements been
far advanced by which the Yale Field
shall come under the ownership of the
Corporation, and by which the student
athletics can be guided by an adviser
like Walter Camp, but we have, in some
measure as a result of this, witnessed
a dissemination of athletic effort
throughout all the members of the Uni-
versity, so that, more nearly than ever,
we are realizing that ideal under which
intercollegiate sport shall not be an
exhibition of prowess by a few trained
specialists, but a healthful outcome and
incident of an athletic life in which a
large and increasing number have their
part. More men are enjoying the out-
door work and outdoor play incident to
these sports than ever before; while of
the spirit which animates the leaders,
last season’s record may furnish the evi-
dence. Even with the disappointment
of the Princeton game fresh in our
minds, we may well say, ‘Gloria victis"’
WHY THE BUILDINGS ARE NEEDED.
“It is also in their relation to the
alumni that the new buildings which it
is proposed to erect’ in commemoration
of our bi-centennial have their highest
importance and_ significance. They
form no necesary part of the every day
undergraduate life of the University.
For purposes of daily living and daily
instruction we can get along without
them. They are not buildings which it
would be legitimate to construct from
the general funds which are provided
for the work of instruction, nor are they
buildings for whose expense we can
readily seek for contributions from
those who are outside of the sphere of
Yale influence, and who do _ not
know the need of that center of
alumni life. We desire to provide a
hall large enough for the friends of Yale
to meet in at the time of the bi-centen-
nial, and not only at the time of the
bi-centennial but at the other great
occasions, both social and intellectual,
which occur every year. We desire a
dining hall which shall seat worthily
the assemblage of people which once a
year, at least, throngs our campus and
our streets: and we desire a memorial
entrance which shall serve as a worthy
gathering place for the alumni and a
monumental entrance to these buildings.
Of course these are not the only uses to
which we can put them. The dining
hall for the alumni can serve also as a
commons for the students, and will
make a far better and more inspiring
one than we have at present; and the
auditorium, which serves for our com-
mencements and for our bi-centennial
exercises. can be made to serve as an
examination hall or as a floor for in-
door games. But it should be remem-
bered that these are first and foremost
alumni buildings, to be built for the
alumni if the alumni want them, and
primarily needed because the Yale life
which comes surging back year by vear
needs a local habitation such as it does
not now possess.”
“We are graduates of Yale’s second
century; graduates of what, theugh in
name a university, was in fact, for the
most part, but a group of colleges. We
are justly proud of what our Yale has
done in preparing citizens for the

country. Some have not been wholly
free from apprehension that in the
widening of the opportunities for in-
struction, there might be a loss of that
cohesion and that habit of working to-
gether which have made the Yale man
of the past what he is. Let not such
fear have any place in our minds. The
development of the future is in the
hands of men who will not let the mak-
ing of specialists take the place of the
making of citizens. It is in the hands
of those who know that a university
which provides learning and not Chris-
tian manhood is doing the lesser part of
its work. They can be trusted to see
that the broadening of the scope of their
activity shall be accompanied by such
coordination, such insistence upon tradi-
tions of work, and such reverence for
the spirit of the past, as shall make
Yale’s third century a worthy out-
growth of its first and its second.”

Pres. Hadley’s Western Trip.
A Yale graduate living in the West
writes us to call special attention to
the success of the Western trip of Yale’s
President as an introduction of the man
and of the Yale ideas which he repre-
sents, to the Western constituency of
Yale. He speaks of the impression made
upon the body of Louisville professional
and business men, who came to meet
President Hadley, with their critical
faculties alert,. prepared to test. as far
as they could, what the Yale Corpora-
tion had done. “The resulting impres-
sion,’ this correspondent writes, “was
all that the Corporation could ask for as
vindicating the wisdom of their choice.”
He considered that one of the severest
tests to which he was subjected came
in addressing the students of the Louis-
ville Boys’ High School. This observer
says that the address made a considera-
ble addition to the ranks of those who
look forward to an education at Yale.
