Feb. 8—The pr fessional spirit growing within as wet as without colleges “in commercializ-| ing competitive football, basketball and baseball is doing much to under- mine athletics and unless stopped is dound to cauge serious damage to col- lege sport,” Coach T. BE. Jones, di- rector of athletics at the University of Wisconsin said today in a state ment. . Coach Jones believes that the small colleges which are members of an or- ganized conference, newspaperr who urge more lenienqy in applying the amateur rule, and extended playing schedvles beyond the regular season are all working to co:nmercialize sport and bring about jts decline in col- léges. “Between amateur and professional athletics there is a gulf that cannot be spanned,” the coach said “The ideals and ends of the two are as far apart as the poles. The athlete who chooses one must give up the other. “If professionalism were to creep into college athletics it would rob the game of its educational valie and tts ideals leaving no good reason for a continued existence of these sports. “Chief among the influences work- ing to the detriment. of mIntercollegiate activities are those” small colleges which do not belong to any organized conference, who have no freshman rule, who are free lances and play] from one end of the country to the other without regarJ for time of sched- ules. Standard echools who schedule these colleges are dohig much to dam. age athletics. “Some rcwepzpers have done con siderable damage in trying to mould public opinion toward more freedom tn amateur sport through permitting summer baseball.
