B—Th(\i national industrial recovery act is going to benefit sports as well as business, predicts Frank McCor- mick, athletic director of the Uni- versity of Minnesota. “In the next 10 years,” says Mc- Cormick, “I think you will see a great increase in attendance at athletic events and in the num- bers of persons taking part in them.” People will turn first to sports and recreation with the coming of the shorter work week and in creased leisure time, McCormick believes. “I think we will see a big boom in our golf courses, in clubs, and of course in intercollegiate athlet- ics. The big sports will enter a new era of popularity, as will the less spectacular forms of recrea- tion where people find pleasure as participants and not as mere spactators.” The director points out, how- ever, that the coming less-work- and-more-play regime will place a “heavy duty on our schools.” “It will be up to the schools to teach people how to spend their time,” he says. “This will arouse greater interest in athletics and this will be reflected in more and keener comnetition.” ———————— JUNEAU BOY, NOW REAL DENTIST, IS IN CHARGE OF PARLORS IN SEWARD Sep- (Seward Gateway.)
