ON FOOTBALL
recent issue of The Forum
the question of the legitimacy of in
creased time and money spent on col
legiate football is debated from al
most every angle. The affirmative of
"Shall we deflate intercollegiate foot
ball?" is taken up extensively by
. i-
gportaman; not a bully or a croo.
Then what U wrong witfl the example
the game seta forth?
No one can say that It la not a
real man's sport. It develops men
both physically and mentally. Many
a game has been won by the thought
fulness and quick action of individual
players. It is an example or true
team-work and the subordination 01
selfish motives to the cause of the
team which personifies the university
or school behind it. What better qual
ities can we hope to instill into the
minds of students than these!
It is true that there are evils to
footbnll the same as there are to all
other games. But it is tho opinion of
the general observer that the good
qualities more than offset the bad
effects of the game. Why shall we be
come alnrmed over a situation in
which, as yet, the defects are in the
minority?
Therefore we do not believe that
football is becoming a religious cult
Its moral and intellectual benefits
are not absurdly exaggerated. It
not so expensive that educational
budgets suffer. It is to our athletic
desires what the olympic games were
to the Greeks.

"LAUNCH OUT INTO THE DEEP"
(The McGill Dally.)
IIow many people with two good
... . . . .. . e .
eyes in their head go tnrougn me
half blind, missing the obvious, let-
Alfred Rashiell, an ex-Princeton man. itiria. the precious things escape them,
The negative is discussed Dy wuiiam
Roper, the present Princeton football
coach.
Mr. Dashiell says that intercolle
giate football has become a religious
cult, building stadiums instead of
cathedrals. He says its morals and in
tellectual benefits are absurdly exag
gerated, it is so expensive that edu
cational budgets suffer. There is noth
ing Greek about football; it is a bar
baric Roman spectacle for a degen
erated Roman mob, concluded Mr.
Dashiell.
Coach Roper argues that football is
a benefit to the players, mentally and
physically, and an influence for good
in college morals; without it the col
leges could not give financial support
to other sports. He continues to say
that it is a legitimate part of modem
life the Greek athlete was as much
a part of Greek civilization as the
Greek philosophers, he contends.
The growth of intercollegiate ath
letic competition has been by leaps
and bounds within the last twenty
years and football has, beyond all,
made the greatest strides. It is un
deniable that football -is the major
sport of any wide-awake college. And
it is also undeniable that many alum
ni are proud of the football record
of their alma mater and that this re
cord is the criterion by which many
a college is classified.
"Famous college football stars
have been known to figure in murder
trials, in robbery cases, and, from
some of the evidence produced in
divorce courts, are not particularly
noted for their impeccable conduct,"
Mr. Dashiell contends. This too is
true, "Some old football stars would
rather have their sons on winning
football teams for their alma mater
than have them become President"
But now why shall we condemn
football because it has become, the
popular college sport? Why shall we
say that f'Kjtball in a curse because
some of its famous proteges have
gone wrong and did not learn the
morals of the game? Can we cast
cside the university because some of
its students have rone wrong? If
we lay aside all thought as to the
moral and intellectual benefit of the
game we can safely say that it (the
game) has accomplished a great deal
in many ways for the university.
Mr. Dnshie'J, we believe, does no'
understand the financial working and
benefits cf the football competitive
games. At leaat here at Nebraska,
and this is not by any means the cen-
- ter of highest attendance at such
games, the football returns, accord
ing to the financial report published
a short time ago, are the means of
support to the rest of the family cf
athletics. Football here is not only
self supporting but, to a large degree,
makes possible the continuance of
other sports. If other university edu
cational budgets are not held down
by football any more than they are
at Nebraska, we dare aay that they
will have a prosperous future.
Coach Roper states that newspaper
reports of tremendous receipts from
football games sometimes give well
meaning people the idea that the
game is run for somebody's profit.
He explains that in some cases these
receipts are not wisely used, but in
the majority of instances, every pen
ny is managed as carefully as it
would be in any big business and ap
plied scientifically to the general
needs of the university.
The argument is sometimes ad
vrseed that the football season is too
long and yet it is shorter than most
any other of the college games. Base
ball, basketba'l, golf and others run
fuLy twice as long as football, anJ
more.
Almost everyone who knows any
thing about football will agree that
it is cne cf the most strenuous of
tLe college sports. Thus the player
r-ia rot only keep his body in con
cision in season, but all the year. He!
Brant keep up his scholastic standing
.i me year too in order to be eli
and putting limits on the boundless?
Life never ceases to reproduce itself
in miniature in many of what we call
the common and unimportant events
that happen from hour to hour; and
yet how many of us actually see but
make little effort to understand.
We are given a wide, wide world
for the exercise of our powers. But
many of us are looking at the wide
world of endeavor as though it were
only at the end of our outstretched
armr. Some of us are grasping the
little things and letting the big things
go. And some of us, who know that
there is a whole sea to fish in, are
never venturing beyond the shallows
where we can see the pebbles on the
bottom.
How much we think in the shal
lows! What an empire have we in the
unmeasured fields of thought! What
an illimitable realm is that which
our thoughts can traverse, ever find
ing new pathways! And yet, how true
it is that we can chain down so much
of our thinking to the petty and triv
ial things, stunting our minds and
curtailing the liberty that belongs to
them of right.
How much we students here at Mc
Gill are reading in the shallows. If
many of us hoisted our sail and
launched out into the deep with our
readings if we delimited the amount
of light reading we do, and read with
some fiction, a page or so of history,
or biography, or poetry, it would
open for us the door of a new world.
The predominating tendency today
is to do the easiest, the most pleasant,
the least irksome things. But will
such things get us anywhere?

Apate, Nebraska, near the Wyoming
line, have come such a variety of fos
sils that it is known to paleontolo
gists the country over as one of the
most valuable deposits now Deing
worked.
The recent discovery of a fossil
tooth of an anthropoid ape of groat
antiquity has brought much promin
ence to Mr. Cook and forced scien
tists to alter some of their theories
regarding the age of man in this re
gion. Mr. Cook has been visiting tho
department of geology during the
past week and has lectured to classes
cago. where It has achieved the phen
omcnal run of twenty-two weeks,
with weekly box-office takings that
amaie theatrical critics. This has
been due largely no doubt, to the
enormous vogue of "Gentlomen Pre
fer Blondes", first as a serial and
then when its author, Anita Loos,
turned it into a book.
Mr. Selwyn has had the play dram
atized by Miss Loos and her husband,
John Emerson, and It is said by the
dramatic reviewers that in transfer-

and presented it to Ivan Wood, agri
cultural engineer who drew the plans.
Dean Burnett insisted that such a
structure should have a commanding
position on the campus and Regent
Seymour was equally as Insistent that
it be given an appropriate setting,
with the result that it occupies the
hill on the east edge of the campus,
formerly the site of the swine barn
and lots.
A broad drive, flanked by a turf
curbing connects this part of the
campus with the main campus, mak
ing a unified whole. Plans have been
made to landscape the grounds sur
rounding the ban and lots in order
to make it a beauty spot of the campus.
The barn itself is built in the form
of a cross, 131 feet east and west
