Last week at the Richmond Col

the horse show building in Rich
mond. William and Mary men en-
tered several events. and from al
accounts not only lost out TO all com

Of the relay men came in far behind

selves losers to Richmond College
by over lap, bunch OF rooters
raised yell in derision Of our men.
The next day the news was re-
ceived here by the students who for
the most part smiled and made
jokes at the expense Of our athletes
who attended the meet. Very few
If any took our defeats in a serious
manner.
Now we do not wish to criticize
the men who took part in these
events; on the contrary. we think
they deserve a good deal OF credit
for the energy they displayed in
raising the necessary funds and at
tending the meet. We co think.
however. that something should be
done in regard to William and Mary
men entering such events il the fu-
ture.
William and Mary TO take part
in this phase OF athletics? IS Of
course the first question 10 be an
swered. and TO be answered by the
student-body. not by a few men.
Bel ewing as we 60 in athletics in al
forms. we believe that William ard
Mary should.have representatives in
al athletic contests in which the
other colleges Of our state engage.
but II is not a question 10 be an
Swered by any one man or by any
few men. Il IS a question that con
fronts the student-body. and should
receive their attention.
Supposing that il is the wish of
the student-body that We should be
represented in such events. is it rea-
sonable that they should drop all IN
terest in It. and leave a few men to
do all the work and Try to raise
funds as best they may? Can we
ever hope for any success in this
phase Of athletics with such a sys-
TEN?
If We are to enter such contests,
this branch should be made a regu-
lar department and given a definite
place in William and Mary athletic
activities. the managers to be elected
by the students. and a definite pro-
portion of the athletic dues paid n
by the students to be devoted to its
interests.
Right here. we wish to say that
this should also apply to basketball. /
a branch of athletics that has never
been sufficiently recognized by OF

Without the aid and interest of
the students. we cannot hope TO send /
out winning teams. and if we cannot !
take prominent part in these events. /
better by far to take no part at all. I
We believe it is the argument of /
