STUDENTS DRINK MORE. ASSERTS SPORTSWRITER Ex-Gridiron Star Ridicules Yost, Stagg Stories ‘of Old Times.’ Bu Times Special NEW YORK. May 22.—"1f It is true literally that the old-time college students drank more than collegians of today, as Mr. Stagg and Mr. Yost testified before the house Judiciary committee, I don’t see how such of us as sprang from collegebred parents escaped being degenerates and lunatics.” Bill Cunningham, all-American football star at Dartmouth a few years ago, now a widely known sports writer, makes this statement m an article, "Liquor Floods the Campus,” written for the current issue of the North American Review. Cunningham, who visits colleges throughout the country during the school year, fraternizing with faculty members as well as students and alumni, asserts that West Point and Annapolis are the only male educational institutions in the country "where a dram can’t be raised readily from the desk drawer of some student within easy walk of where the question is asked.” Cites Yost j University He testifies that he was offered a drink by a student within a few minutes of his arrival at the Uni- * versity of Michigan, where Mr. Yost is director of athletics. At a student dance which accompanied the Yale-Georgia game at Athens, Ga., last fall, he observes, “liquor was copiously present,” and at one famous New England university the favorite student drink is straight alcohol sweetened with a drug store mixture. “Scotch and rye cost too much,” he explains. “Rum is unavailable, and gin is all right, but you have to wait too long for it to ripen, sometimes as long as three-quarters of an hour.” “It is not my intention to question the sincerity of Mr. Stagg and Mr. Yost,’ he says. "Neither is it my desire to paint the college as a glorified night club with feebly operating daytime departments. But I don’t believe their statements are half true, and I believe I have seen more different sorts of colleges and mingled with more students in more parts of the country than Mr. Stagg and Mr. Yost combined.” Only Handful Drank Cunningham testifies in his North American Review article that in his own college days, only a decade ago, only a handful of students really drank, although many would on occasion attend the beer parties which were a part of class and campus tradition. “But note that word beer,” he continues. “That was the collegian's tipple then, and almost every story I have ever heard of ancient academic imbibing centered principally about a little tight-banded keg. It was beer and not raw alcohol flavored with synthetic fruit juice, nor the various forms of poison, so-called Scotch and misnomered rye, in which astounded chemists have found traces of everything from concentrated lye to sulphuric acid. CITY WINS IN FIGHT ON STREET CLOSING Court Sustains Demurrer Against Suit of Property Owners. Superior Judge James M. Leathers Wednesday sustained the demurrer of the city to the suit of property ow r ners to prevent closing of Oriental street from Washington street to Southeastern avanue, in connection with Pennsylvania railroad track elevation. Corporation Counsel Edward H. Knight advised the works board that work on the elevation, which was held up pending litigation, can be started in near future. The city’s victory is the result of a fiveyear fight over whether Oriental street should be closed. CUTTING OF COOLIDGE PROSE IS PROTESTED Buffalo Woman’s Club Aroused by Action of Gutzen Borglum.
