UNDERMINING ATHLETICS.

Perhaps there were sufficient grounds for maintaining secrecy in regard to the resolutions. It was probably meant in kindness to the students. They would be ignorant of the exact extent of the mine that was being secretly dug under their athletic interests, and of course would feel far more comfortable than if they knew just what threatened them. To us such an attempt at secrecy appears much like a stolen march. Students have built up various athletic organizations, and fostered an interest in athletic sports under great difficulties. This interest has been a source of great advantage to the students themselves by leading them as a body, to attend more closely to the demands of their physical being for exercise. Student interests were concerned, student money was invested, the results of years of development, represented in the present athletic organizations, were involved. -Brunonian.
