Benefits of College Athletics.

To the Editor Of the University MIssourian:
College athletics are not only for the
benefit OF those who participate in the
games but also for the pleasure OF
tho>" who are not skilled along the
line Of athletics a college obtains
most of its advertisements from the
athletic teams and it is no more than
right that the most competent players
represent their college instead Of the
less experienced ones.
1t may be said that so-caled pro-
fessional players prevent the other
students from participating in the ath-
letic contests. There is no reason why
there should not be other teams in the
college that have players on that are
in the class of the less scientific play
er of the varsity" team. To bar the
so-called professional from college ath-
letics when he is a bona fide student
and doing the regular prescribed work
seems to he doing him a great inius-

PROFESSIONALS IN ATHLETICS.

Each spring. in all parts of the coun-
try the question will rise whether or
not certain member of a certain col
lr"e baseball team is professional.
The great question to he decided is:
Whether the person is a professional or
not. and if he is should he be allowed
to compete for his college on the
baseball field
First. if he is professional. how
are Won going TO prove it: The only
reliable sources are the official league
records which are oftentimc unreliable
and furthermore il is a simple matter
Ia play under an assumed name. Is
a person a professional when he plays
only on Sunday and receives only a
nominal sum in compensation: l. a
man a professional if he has trade or
an occupation az which he works in
the week while he plays ball on Sun
day chiefly for the sport and exercise?

The Campus Concerts.

10 the Editor OF the University Missourian
The band concerts given in the open
air have become very popular in the
large cities. There is an attractiveness
about an outdoor concert. which does
not appear in the program rendered
indoors. There is a sense of freedom
not possible in hot. Stuifv hall. Just
recall the difference between the circus
band goin" down the street and the
program by a band in an opera house.
For these reasons the concerts To be
"iven on the campus by the cadet band
should prove fittin" climax to the
year. o. r.
