DEFINITE DECISION
Graduate Manager It II Smith at
_tended two meetings In New York City
during the past week-end that were
of little importance from the stand
point of any decisions being leached.
but were very Important in showing the
sentiment of the majority of the large
colleges of the East with respect to
intercollegiate sports. The pint meet
ing was of the Graduate Managers As-
sedation and was the more important
- of the two, the second being a meeting
of managers and coaches for the selec
tion of officials for the football gamed
next fall. This latter meeting was at
tended by Coach Harlow
The sentiment of the xepresentit
tlves of the Ismlons colleges seemed to
be unanimously in favor of continuing
Intercollegiate athletics in some form
next fall, regardless of the number of
men who will be lost because of the
war. The Idea Is to make these sports
as beneficial as possible and, In fact,
to make thorn a preparedness step by
getting more men into competition It
aim conceded that the teams would be
below the etantlard In ability, but even
n 0,.. It won thought that the resulting
good would be worth while
The Importance - of intercollegiate
smuts to a college wan brought out
very strongly at the meeting by con
trasting the demontlited condition

tnued Mut cover, the cottonen that

that the Intermit woe lacking among
the students Harvard and Princeton
practically admitted snaking a mistake
In abandoning their schedules this
spring
The One Your Rule
A subject that came up for much
diecutunon was the abolishing of the
one-your rule for next year In order
to make the teams Ott °noel. Hut yard
and Princeton were willing to drop
the rule, but Penn, Pitt and Penn State
were oppomed to much action for mover
al realm. Ono reason ngninot the ac
tion waif that the dropping of the rule
would put the colleges back on the
, ammo basins they held before the ride
- was adopted The second mason nag
that Instead of broadening athletics, It
would nrurow them-because freshman
stars would be eligible and mould thus
drive some older men out of the corn
petition. while with the rule, both
freshmen and upper-clansmen would be
--engaged But the chief objection raised
• was that such action would prejudice
the public. It would tend to show that
the colleges were willing to go to any
lengths In order to bring In the gate
receipts.
Walter Camp, of Yale, while not oat
daily representing his college. endorsed
- the opinion of the members that Inter
collegiate sports should be carried on.
Many suggestions were made with a
view to cutting down expenses, ouch as
abolishing training tables and such
elaborate preparations an are usually
made
No &colons were made In the matter
but another meeting will be held In
August at Washington, D C, when the
question will be finally settled No ac
tion was token of the rollicials' meet
ing, either, and those men who are to
officiate at the big football gnmes will
also be selected at the August mooting.
