Doubt- less this decisive action explains the absence of recruiting now at Tulane.” Penn State Reverses As to Pennsylvania State college where the investigators found that | 75 athletic scholarships were in ex- istence at the time of their visit, Pres- ident R. D. Hetzel reports: “The board of control passed an action two years ago that no new athletic scholarships should be offered, and none have been offered.” Emphasis on football has greatly decreased at Centre college, points out President Charles J. Turck, who observes, “only five out of 19 football games have been won in the last two | Years.” “In an extreme case of subsidizing,” the bulletin says. “Alumni and busi- ness men made contributions rang- ing from $10 to nearly $1,000 annually / to a fund aggregating from $25,000 to $50,000 a year. From this the col- lege expenses of all football players were paid and additional sums, termed “pay checks,” were disbursed {to leading performers (Washington and Jefferson). “Later the practice was modified to provide only tuitions, board, room and fees, without cash payments.” President S. S. Baker has informed the foundation that the fund now has been reduced almost 40 per cent. A “tapering off’ of more extensive subsidizing operations was observed by the foundation’s workers at La- fayette and Northwestern, as well as Centre. All in all, says Dr. Howard J.

Big Ten Unruffled In Face of Report Chicago, Oct. 24.— 24.—(7\—The report of the Carnegie foundation on sub- sidization and recruiting of college athletes caused nothing more than a ripple of interest and so many de- | ials in Big Ten circles today. Major John L. Griffith, commissioner of the Big Ten, termed as unjust the report which was fav- among the conference universities. “We have nothing to be ashamed of,” Major Griffith said. “I think I letic conditions than any investiga- tor for the Carnegie foundation, and T honestly believe that the Big Ten Proselyting and subsidizing athletes than any other ten universities one might name. The report is unjust, especially to Wisconsin and Minne- sota.” Major Griffith said he did not be- lieve that there was a “cleaner” uni- versity in the country in its athletic Policy than Minnesota. Concerning the charge that 17 athletes were em- | ployed at Wisconsin as rubbers, he explained that this was permissible as long as the athletes were paid by the hour, as is done at the Badger school. The report caused some hope for reinstatement in the Big Ten by Towa, which was ousted several months ago on charges of subsidizing thletes, Electrical Experts Mechanics ly factories and Pi aged up-to-date ighest grade of it in- It pays to your trait Wer assist Eu to get po wie ere you High’ Broce practical mechanical education other schooling, Write for full information, Fargo, N.

It is his ability to banish the nemesis of all coaches—overconfidence among players. Although his team is pacing the Big |'Ten championship parade because of victories over Iowa and Michigan, Coach Willaman has his players more jenthusiastic than ever over the ap- Proaching invasion of Indiana, a {team which is expected to be easy {prey for the fast-charging Buckeyes. { “Rest up for Indians?” one of Wil- jlaman’s players asked last night dur- jing practice. “No, sir!

Coach Pat Page of Indiana defied the elements for a time, sending his rs through a hard scrimmage on the mud-covered field. The Hoo- jsiers are attempting to strengthen their line, figuring the Ohio State contest may be played in the mud. What Coach Willaman secms to have accomplished at Ohio State, Coach Bob Zuppke is still trying to ‘accomplish at Illinois—to make his ! players appreciate his own fears. {Zuppke is afraid lest Michigan, de- spite its defeats by Purdue and Ohio State. might hit the comeback trail ; Saturday and be hard to master.
