VIRGINIA ALUMNUS
EXPRESSES OPINION
Deplores Action Taken by University and Smarts
Under Imputation, From Public?Asks Many
Questions, All Pertinent and Relating to
the Long-Standing Controversy.
; Sporting Editor Times-Dispatch:
H is evident that the athletic!
authorities of tho University of Vir?
ginia nna of V. p. J. are not fully
j cognizant of the Interest which Is being I
taken Hy tho public in the proposca '
resumption of athletic relations bo- '
tweoii theso two Institutions.
Whether just tiled or not, there Is no
denying th? fact that, whatever ex?
planation may bo made of the failure
to arrange a game for the coining
football season, the verdict of the pub- !
lie Is that Virginia is cither afraid of
V. 1'. I. or that its faculty committee i
did net. at lta recent meeting, consider
the proposed gamo without reference
to past difference*, as promised by Dr.
Lambeth. To offer as a roason for not
meeting each other the theory that* a
feeling of Intense partisanship would
be engendered Is to o.-esont an argu?
ment which satisfies nobody, nnd at
tin- same I line to disregard the In?
evitable resentment which the public
will bear toward tho Institution that
declines n contest without apparent
cause.
Some Pithy Questions.
What peculiar condition Is there
which renders It ltnposstblo for theso
two Institutions to engngo In orderly
athletic contests at tills time which
dfd not apply to contests between the
same institutions on tho occasion of
former meetings? None of us ever
heard anything of this Intense and bit?
ter partisanship except since the sev?
erance of athletic relations between
them.
What ha? happened since that time,
if all of the past differences have been
forgotten, to make future contests Im
possible without arousing Intense and
bitter partisanship? Are students or
the Stale University ami the Stute,
Polytechnic Institute nflllctod with any!
peculiar characteristics whloh do not
o long: to students of any other Insti?
tutions and which constitute a bar to!
future* contests between them?
Dot the authorities of tho two instl-l
tutlons g.' out and mingle with the
people a little front whom they goi
their patronage and support, and then
let them say whether their interests
will he best promoted by a resumption
of athletic relations or a persistent
disregard of each other.
Suggests Honrd of Arbitration,
Why not leave the whole matter of
the terma and conditions of a meeting
to a hoard of arbitration, composed
in part of tho athletic heads of the two
institutions? It is idle to pass the
matter hy with the mere statement that
tho Interests of the Institutions demand j
that they do not meet. The alumni j
and tho public' are not satisfied with
this, and are not going to bo satisfied. |
As an alumnus of Virginia. I confess j
that 1 smart under the constant asser?
tion that Virginia Is afraid to meet I
V. p. i. Better suffer defeat than de?
cline a contest on a ground which tends
to strengthen rather than diminish this
belief.
Come, gentlemen. Let's have tho
game or advance some reason for not
having It which the public can under?
stand.
Virginia cannot afford to leave tho
matter where It Is.

NOT YET DECIDED
AS TO TRACK MEET
Meeting of Track Team Committee Will Bej
Held at College Next Week to Determine
Whether to Hold Indoor Event or to Wait
Until Spring and Use Baseball Park.
Not until a mooting ot tho Committee
on Track Athletics of Richmond Col?
lege holds d meeting next weok will It
he definitely decided regarding holding
an indoor track moot In this city some
time during the winter. Tin. question
has now resolved Itself Into the ad?
visability ef holding an indoor meet
tills winter or watting until spring aim
holding a meet at the ball park.
.Manager F. W. Corley, of the track
team, is authority for the above stato- i
mo I it. lie also gave tho information
that the exact dato for tho meeting
had not been determined upon, but that
It would positively bo held next week.
Neither was he at nil positive that the
llorae Show Building could not bo se?
en cd In which to hold tho meet In Ute
event that It was decided upon. lie
was also of the opinion that the tlnil
halt of tlie Blues' Armory would make
an admirable placo in which to hold
such a meet, provided suiuclent seats
could bo obtained for tho audience.
Hum .Ueu to Have CUnuce,
As a matter of fact, the one am! only
consideration regarding an indoor meet
is whi ther or not the men can be put
In proper condition to make a credit,

patt. Much time has been lost in get
ting out the candidates and in secur?
ing a coach for the team.
Nov. that 1 laguinan, former track
star at Columbia University, has been
ohgnged, it would be neither lair to
him nor the men who have come out,
to put thorn through only superficial
training and expect them to do as well
I
I as more seasoned athletes. Vor this
reason It may appear advisable to hold J
I on open air moot early in the spring. |
j Never heforo In the ulstory ot ll-lch- j
mond College has there been such a
; wealth of likely material for the tracK !
loam. More than thirty candidates are ?

A SPECIFIC BLOOD IMPURITY
Catarrh is a deep-seated blood dis?
ease, one which no amount of local
treatment will ever permanently cure.
The beneficial effects of washes,
sprays, inhalations, etc., are only
temporary, and when left off the old
condition returns, because the blood
is infected with catarrhal matter and
impurities. This impure condition
of the circulation irritates and in?
flames the delicate mucous mem?
branes and tissues and produces the
well known Symptoms of ringing
noises in the head and ears, mucus in
the throat, headaches, watery eyes,
partial deafness, sore throat, genera.'
impairment of health, etc. This con?
dition will remain, growing worse an
long as the catarrhal matter is al?
lowed to remain in the blood. Tleing
a specific blood impurity, there is only
one way to cure Catarrh, ami that i-j
to purify the blood. Nothing equals
S. S. S. for this purpose. It attacks
the disease at its head?in the circu?
lation?and by thoroughly renovating
the blood and
cleansing it of all
i in pure mattet,
makes a perma?
nent and lasting
cure of the dis?
ease. For forty
years S. S. Si has
been recognized
as the best blood
purifier, and the thousands of cases of
Catarrh it has cured is proof that it is
the very medicine needed by those
who suffer with this trouble. Book on
Catarrrh and any medical advice free.
