To such an argument we can only say that people with such a viewpoiit haven't Studied the situation clfosely enough to warrant their opinion. We are sure that If anyone is laboring under a delusion that a few minutes such on the subject will of reflection change their attitude considerably and will lend their whole hearted support to the project. In other days people got along without cement toads, but who would care to get along without them now? Especially the one between here and Price. The argu- ment that increased traffic necessitated the cement road is a good argument and a like one can be used in support of the hospital. Our population has increased and with that increase sickness and accidents have increased. Add to this the danger of the automobile and the number of them, we can readily see why a hospital is a necessity. We cannot judge our conduct in the present by what has happened) in he past, nor can we expect to better ourselves in the future by exhibiting a lax attitude in the present. ever-prese- nt ATHLETIC VALUES Every now and then, denunciations of the wld field allowed college athletic.3 in college life are made. Charges arq uttered that athletics are coming to domineer collegiate life, that they are supplanting the academic life at an alarming rate, that they are parasitical giving nothing in return for the lavish attention granted them. Such charges are absurd, despite the seeming basis they may have. That the college of today is unlike the institutions of utterly ' quiet learning of former days is true, but then, the college of today is a cosmopolitan' and democratic institution at which any and every man can and does go, quite unlike the days when college men were only of the selected few. Accordingupon the ly, the demands made present day college are in accordance with its mass attendance. The mere fact that athletics are a product of modern circumstances is far from being prima facie evidence that modern strews on sports is wrong. Far from it. Nor is there any possibility that snorts will ever sunnlant the aca demic life of colleges. Athletics of nl! varieties are too well profes sionalized for that to happen, even if there were a possibility 4bat a o1'.o could exist for sports alone Nothlne could bet more wron? ptkWm I & Phone or send your The Times office. BEETHOVEN WEEK Beethoven week will be general ly observed throughout the, civilized world, March 20 to 26, in commemoration of the 100th anniversary of the exeat composers death. While the plan to honor Beethoven oa the his death was at first centennial purely American, Great Britain and other 'European countries have become interested and have requested information as to probable ways in whic hhey might carry oh a similar celebration. It was announced) Saturday at the office of Gov. George H. Dern that the cheif executive would issue a proclamation seeking the of the centennial of the Prof. Thomas death of Beethoven. Giles, head of the University of Utah music department, is sta(te chairman for the observance. Of special interest to the music lovers of Helper, is the fact that they will be afforded the pleasure of enjoying renditions of the great masters work, and discussions of his life and works through the medium, of the radio, as special stress is being made by broadcasting stations to put Beethovens work on the air. Locally the University of Utah will broadcast for one hour over station KSL beginning at 7 p.m. Sunday, March 20. Various schools, men's and ladies' clubs as well as the radio stations will partic'pate in the week with gatherings for commemoration exercises and programs. Each of the meetings will include selections from Beethoven's music and comments on his life. Daniel Gregory Meson's cemmemoration summary, published by the Beethoven week national advisory body, with headquarters in New York, will prove of general-observanc- great interest, and be used wideIt reads In part: "Born in 1770 at Bonn on the Rhine, Ludwig van Beethoven mov ed in his early twenties to Vienna, the Austrian capital, and spent the rest of his life there.
