He holds that football and other vigorous sports were never so es- sential to the nation as today. “The importance,” Sherman said, | “rests in the continued develop-| ment of ‘he-men.’ Especially is this| true in critical times as now. | “Football players make ideal leaders. I recall in the World War| when army officers found a man| had played football, they took him from the ranks and sent him to an officers’ training camp.
