It is & mistake to discriminate between the brains and the muscles. The football player must have gy far greater mental efficiency thah the debater. At the University of Illinois we have the privilege of teaching some 300 young men from 30 states who have selected athletic coaching as their life work and have entered our four-year coursc in athletic coaching to train themselves. We constantly | seek to impress upon them that foot- ball, more than any other game, is an expression of school and college spirit and should therefore be syn- onymous with good sportsmanship. Any coach who neglects to further the principles of good sportsmanship has failed in his calling. He must, above all, respect the ruies of the game and abide by their spirit, The future of football is more in the hands of those who teach it than those who play it. It will thrive just as long as it is a constructive force in the building of the character and physique of young Americans. This will depend upon the proper super- vision of health and correct methods and ideals in coaching. Positively fresh eggs, 59¢ doz.
