Bo ard of Standards Is Suggested for College Sports : URGED BY STAR ATHLETE AS REAL CURE FOR EVILS BY LAWRE ¢ an cifort to get the viewpoint I NCE PERRY. of the athlete on the present state of the intercollegiate athletics—we had the views of almost every | one elsc—the writer has requested a man who stands high in his college and is one of the best-known tackles in the country to sub- mit his own ideas for publication. “Of all suggestions I have heard, involves the placing of college athletics upon a firm basis of honor to| be the best in thory. As to the pra me of us, it is true, you claim to be kind of athletes who try to maintain this standard, but many of - us are noi. You know as well as I do the number of men in college who are playing ball of one kind or an- other simply because they happen to c bik. rqugh or something,.and not because of any interest in sportsman- ship. 1t is hard to picture certain athletes 1 know as Interested in the henor of college athletics. Not Worried Over Foot Ball. Now, as (o base ball. There is no getting around the fact that a ma- jority of college ball players who are any good use their skill to advantage during the summer. There are more yS to get around the professional regulations for them than in any dther s;ort. | have yet to be conv d that alarming tendency for 4 r track men eptions. In those sports, € are gen- caught, and pi opinion is against it n ‘evil of present dav ! I think. takes other forms ‘ruifing and paying men to | come to college is one. Influencing them (o transfer. allowing them to miss classes. leave when the season is over and come beck next yvear are ! others. My only solution is a central board of standards where general rules to apply to all colleges could be devised and enforced. Otherwise vou would have the different colleges un- der varying standards, and the result would be no better than conditions that now exist “With definite rules from a central board there would be something to hanz to. “Then a college which refused to aholish the practice of giving ath- letes free rooms and board in so- called varsity houses the vear round and colleges which continued to play men who were not certified by the faculty #nd up dn their studies or who favored atbletes in other ways, would stand; before the bar and be convicted. Sure Athletes Would Approve. “I think you would find your aver- ave athlete approving such a central board if—and that ‘if" is the big qual- ifcation—it would not demand ma- terial changes in the course his own college pursues. Only the exceotional athlete would come out for good sportsmanship if it were against the interests of his college. Such is mis- . guided college spirit. So. perhaps, the matter stands up to the big-minded alumni “I don't believe in intramural ath- Jetic: d nothing els: I don’t think there can be such a thing as college athletics unless they bask in the light of intercollegiate sport and varsity teams. Interest now taken in and fraternity athletics is mere- I¥ a hangover from the interest in How far would lub system such as they have at ver go if there ‘were not also a foot ball eldven practicing the varsity teams. the Finances are playing too big a part the game, but I think this'is the in result of an honest desire to put out hetter teams. Intersectional games ,are good for the team and for the col- leze. They are broadening. Finally, I'zet back to the idea of a conference, which would adopt and enforce stand- ards and regulate schedules. Reforms will come in no other way. Something in the way of a sports- manlike interchange among . the col- lege athletic teams of the United States and England may follow the visit to London of the Pennsylvania four-mile relay team, where on April 8 they will compete against Oxford- Cambridge four in the Achilles Club games at Queen’s Club. With the Quaker athletes now on the high seas is John T. McGovern, who will act as sort of plenipoten- tiary for a number of American uni- versities. Waiting to meet him in England is Bevil G. D. Rudd, the for- mer Oxford track star, who spent several months in this country last year and devoting himself fo the | eplendid work of bringing athletes of his country and America together on a plane of common enterprise and understanding. There is more than a chance that these two men, in conjunction with other college athletic authorities of England, will arrange a definite sys- tem of intgrnational meetings involv- ing various sports extending over a period of years. It was learned that Pennsylvania has declined the invitation to partici- pate in the big track meet in Paris in April. The Red and Blue runners have a leave of absence of but a month, and, studies aside, they must to be in regular attendance! This he was found glad to do, " he writes, “I believe the one that ctical ‘'value I am not sure. grvp;\ru for the Penn relays on April 8-29. Alexander Wiener, W, T.

He strength, of course. This shows in his smashes and in his service. But he has almost every variety of stroke and uses his head splendidly. All in all, it is felt about the armory that he will be well worth watching through the long years ahead of him. NAVY SEEKING MATCH the year unsettled between Yale and the “Naval Academy. the latter 's anxious for a match and there is a fair chance that it will be. held at New Haven on April 1. The local management has written that jt is willing to meet Yale under almost any conditions. Yale has claimed the intercollegiate championship for the past two sea- sons, but it is contested this year by the Naval Academy with a galaxy @K stars, including Sinclair, intercol- legiate record holder for 220 yard: Kanakanul, the Hawaiian star; Bol ing, Winjer and others.
