PASADENA, Dec. 19-Dr. David Starr
Jordan, president of Stanford university,
addressed the students of Throop insti-
tute this afternoon. His talk was brief,
but 1t was an inspiration in behalf of bet
ter athletics at the school. Among other
things he said:
'T am kind of missionary in athletics.
I played on a football team before you
men were born. / pitched on baseball
nine before they were allowed to wear
gloves and had every finger broken from
contact with bat and ball. Rugby has
made the kind of men that are wanted
today. The kind of students that are
wanted today are the ones who can do
not only small things but large things.
To do large things they must have train
ing, and the more training they have the
larger the things they can do. Aside from
the training is the sober mind. The man
whose brain can be depended upon at all
times is the man who will be valuable
far above the one who does things by
spurts."
DR.. Jordan came to Pasadena this aft
ernoon in company with DR.. Norman
Bridge, Acting President Arthur HI.
Chamberlain of Throop and Charles Fred
erick Holder They went direct to Throop,
where the above brief address was made
to the students.
