| Sportsmen Discuss Old
Problem of Diet for
Training of Atheletes
BERLIN, May 28.—(JP)—The age
old question as to whether a meat
or vegetable diet is more beneficial
for athletes came up for solution at
the recent sport exhibition. The an
swer is still missing. In an exhaus
tive investigation active sportsmen
insisted they could not get along
on an exclusively vegetable diet and
that their systems required fairly
large quantities of meat.
Eggs appeared to be the most pop
ular article of food with a majority
of athletes in training.
The Admiral Watson of the Pacific
Steamship Company is due to arrive
in Seward tomorrow from the west
ward on her way South.

ENGLISH EDUCATORS
CRITISIZE SYSTEM OF
GRADING U. S. SCHOOLS
OXFORD, Eng., May 28.—(ff)—'The
American system of education, with
its arrangement of yearly grades or
classes extending up from the pri
mary schools to the senior year in
college, finds little favor among Eng
lish teachers and university authori
ties. In English public school the
form system, which put promotion
upon equality of work done rather
than on years of attendance, is con
sidered to give satisfactory results,
while, in the universities the Ameri
can classification of freshman, soph
omore, junion, senior and post-gradu
ate is unknown.
Sir Michael Sadler, president of
University College, and a noted Eng
lish educator, has recently criticized
the class system of school organiza
tion, on the ground that under it a
boy who does not begin his school
ing early enough or in the approved
manner “misses the train” and there
after is never able to catch up. Ox
ford certainly is free from this crit
icism, he said, as a considerable
number of the students admitted have
been under tutors and have never at
tended any variety of school.
The advantages of a strictly or
ganized class system of schools and
colleges are well illustrated, it was
pointed out, by the career of Joseph
Wright, M.A., Ph.D., D.C.L., LL.D.,
Litt.D., F.B.A., until recently the Ox
ford professor of comparative phil
ology. Dr. Wright was born in a
one-room Yorkshire cottage for which
a weekly rental of ten pence was
paid, and at the age of six was work
ing for thirty cents a week. He nev
er attended a school, but at 13 he
taught himself to read, and in the
seven years following he taught him
self Latin, Greek, French and Ger
man. To these he later added San
skrit, Old Bulgarian, Old Norse and
Icelandic, old and modern High Ger
man, Lithuanian and Russian.
With these qualifications Dr.
Wright was readily received into the
university world, and in 1901 he suc
ceeded the great Max Muller in the
Oxford professorship and brought out
the scholarly and comprehensive Eng
lish dialect Dictionary. He also pro
duced standard primers and gram
mars of Gothic, Greek, middle and
old High German and old English.
The value of his researches were
recognized by the crown, and, after
the ancient fashion, he was provided
with a government grant or civil list
pension of about $1,000 a year.
Busy Miss Mackay
Finds Time To Pilot
Airplane Over England
LONDON, May 29.—(£>)— Miss El
sie Mackay, daughter of Lord and
Lady Inclicape, who distinguished
herself some time ago as a designer
of the interior of steamships has tak
en up flying and recently purchased
an airplane for her own use. She

time ago; has already made many
flights, and has become known as

by Miss Mackay. The suite occupied
by Lord and Lady Heading recently
on their voyage from Bombay to
London were arranged by her.
