Judge karnes Protests.

j. Y. {. karnrs, 4 distinguished grad
uate nf the University of Missouri whu
resides in Kansas City, has given out
an interview in which he deploreS the
attention and money spent on the
great college game While recon-
mendin% the athletic training of tho
schools and colleges of the country
he protests against the concentration
on football on the grounds that it
draws the energy of the students from
their studies and ether phases Of col
lege life
Mr. karncS SayS:
The matter of athletic training
ought tn be Il part of the curriculum
ana each student be required to take
a particular amount OF work either
in the gymnasium or in the open field
unless excused Tor some good and
sufficient reason. The body should
have full training as well as the mind
II these young people are to go out
'''N' IVA 'Ht SUI IL uulltS OF active
HE. From this training there would
come no more decentralization than
from the study of mathematics or the
languages. But can that sort of Dhvsi.
cal exercise pursued by all the stu
dents be clasSed with training hv -
few students only in football teams
with the remaining students simply
on-lookers in wild excitement or fol
lowing the teamS over the country at
an expense that few OF them can
afford"
The physical danger of football has
been given an undue prominence at
times. The contention of Mr.. Karnes
Is worthy of careful consideration BY
school authorities. For at least three
months OF each year the minds of
students have little room for else than
the football games in which their
school participates. A comparatively
small portion of the student BODY can
take part in the game. The others
get none OF the physical benefits en-
