WG THIRTY" IS NEW OPPONENT TO ATTACK "BIG THREE
"BIG THREE ' ' POLICY
RAPPED BY CORNELL
AS TOO AUTOCRATIC
Ithacan Publication Ac
cuses "Select Triumvi
rate" of Attempt to Dis
courage Rivalries
Dropping of Dartmouth by
Princeton, Colgate by
Yale and Cornell by Har
vard Starts Trouble
SLIGHTED BY HARVARD"MG FOUR" TO ATTACK
Ithtos, X. T Fb. 14. Harvard's
practical elimination of major sport re
latlons with Cornell, the nsrreamcnt
anions Harvard, Talo and Princeton to
drop or discourage even secondary riv
alries, the autocratic position of the
El Three and even that deslcnatlon U
elf, have aroused athletic men at Cor
nell. In an editorial headed "How
Big- Is the Blc Three?" the Cornell
Sun assails the strengthened policy ot
sport Isolation .entered Into by the Big
Three, as follows:
"Perhaps the college world awaits
anxiously and breathlessly the rending
of the veil ot secrecy regarding trie
athletic plans of Harvard. Princeton and
Yale. Perhaps. Perhaps American col
leges will not feel able to go wagging
along their way until tho -Big Three"
tribunal Issues Its decree. Perhaps.
"The existence of 'powerful' cllnues
controlling the future of lnteTcollegMte
athletics Is at once tho greatest stum
bling block to success nnd tho greatest
menace to the future of the whole ays
lem. The easily arrived at conclusion
that a given group contains within Its
restricted confine all the meat nnd mar
row seems to constitute the ralson
d'etre and tho strength of tho 'Big
Three.'
Big Three Slumbers
"Harvard, Yale and Princeton are per
haps just a little behind the times In
setting up their hiernrchy of Intercol
legiate sport. With the multiplicity of
. colleges sending teams out Into Inter
collegiate competition, the existence of
u sport aristocracy Is an anomaly and
an anacnronism.
'Tho Big Three Idea Is a bit undemo
cratic and against the spirit ot theimes.
College athletic competition stjjaid bo
broadened In scope. Any attempt at
forming closed syndicates nttaclis the
ery essence of athletics. War Bhould
liavo taught the 'Big Three' a lesson or
so, and it Is possible that the forth
coming army plan ot preparedness may
include a few eyeopenera for the self
constituted 'Big Three.'
Dismiss Itivals
"Secondary rivalries are dismissed by
the 'Big Three' as being neither worth
time nor' effort. Hence, It Is natural that
those not graced by 'Big Three' mem
bership form the Idea that they are
on tho outside looking In. Actually
those on the outside carry the great
burden of righteousness. Playing step
ping stono to championship for the 'Big
Three' Is a" tiresome game. One can
anticipate tlJRt the 'little fellows' may
soon tire of playing second fiddle to
the blg fellows.; It is, possible that the
inconsequential 'small rivals' may
choose to beat each other In athletics.
If beating is to bo done, thus saIng
the 'big fellowB' the trouble.
'Tor the present, It is worthy of note
that the 'Big Threo' have met and de
cided, but not yet conquered. Tho fu
ture of American intercollegiate athletics
has been determined in a tempest In
a teapot, and the 'Big Three,' feeling
confidently secure ,in their position aa
arbiter, bide a wee ere they enlighten
the 'world outside the mystic pale."

Xew -ork, Feb. 14. The intercolllegl.
ate athletic world Is In the throes of a
lerltablo revolution. Alliances of long
standing have been terminated and new
alignments are In tho process of organ!,
zatlon. The reason for the general up
heaval lies In the policy of Big Three
Isolation promulgated by Harvard. Yale
and Princeton In the conference of.thelr
faculty sport representatives In this city
some days ago. The Big Three deter
mined that they were to make their,
alliance stronger than ever, and that
even secondary rivalries would not be
tolerated.
In consequence of this decision Prince,
ton has dropped Dartmouth in football.
Harvard has terminated Its long track '
and football alliance Blth Cornell and
Yale Is understood to have withheld an
Invitation to Brown to play football
next season. Hven tho tertiary relation ,

Princeton did not send ihe usual In- i

Dartmouth has not asked about the

Of all these others Cirrus, the Tracery
