reforms in athletics. Professor Waldo
advocated the legislation Of the profess

proposition to do away with the charg-

gestions in line with the recent state
ments by Professor Hollis OF Harvard
were made.
The professional coach was defined by
Professor Waldo in his paper as the
''one who goes to a college for three or
four months" He said such coaches
receive salaries that make the universe

coaches are ready to spend part Of
their salaries in hiring men SO as to
