how many wives he had, how many
children, related events of his life and
described his character greatly to the

Evidently the sheik told his friends

followed by crowds in the streets, all
begging her to tell their fortunes. At

VALUE Of ATHLETIC
GAMES IN SCHOOLS
PROF. T.. ID. RESSLER AND
HON. ii. NJ. MKINNEY DEBATE
Before High school and College Sec
ton Of Teachers Convention. Two
Men Argue Merits and Dement'S of
Present System of Athletic Con-
tests.

one of the most interesting features
of yesterdays session of the teach
ers' convention was the debate before
the department of secondary and
higher education on the question of
interscholastic athletics and the most
sensational feature of the debate was
the attack upon the present system
OF athletics by Prof. E. D. Ressler of
Oregon Agricultural college. The af-
firmative side of the question was up
held by Representative Mckinney of
Baker City, graduate Of the Univer-
sity of Oregon and famous in north
west football and field athletics. The
negative side of the issue was cared
for by Prof. Ressler, who is at the
head of the industrial department of
o. A. c., and who is In charge of the
normal section of the present conven-
ton.
Mr.. Mckinney commended that the
education of the child included the
development and training of the ply
steal as well as the mental and he held
that athletics are useful in education
because they are beneficial to physi-
cal development.
The question under discussion was
Resolved, That all high schools
should maintain a complete schedule
Of athletic games and contests" The
affirmative therefore insisted that
athletic contests give an incentive to
training. to a moral, clean life and
develop leadership as well as sports
manship. "An athletic schedule he
contended, gives the advantage of
several contests and broadens the stu
dent by bringing him into touch with
life in other schools.
Athletics should not be judged by
their defects but by their general
benefit" commended Mr.. Mckinney.
"Interscholastic athletic contests have
h same basis for argument as have
i~nterscholastic debates, for they pro-
vide the incentive Of competition.
1T is not fair that athletes should
be abolished on the ground that they
are beneficial only to a few, but the
high school and college should re-
Quire every student to undertake
some form Of athletic games and so
benefit every student in the school by
East Oregonian : E.O. (Pendleton, OR) 1888-current, 1910-03-24

giving him the advantage of outdoor
exercise in some good game"
In concluding his argument, Mr..
Mckinney declared that the defects
of the great game of football are fast
being eliminated.
The Negative.
In speaking on the opposite side of
the question. Prof. Ressler said in
part:
1.-THE negative is not disposed to take
advantage of the statement of the
question and contend for even a linn
tied schedule, but takes the position
that all interscholastic athletics be-
tween high schools should be abol-
ished. The affirmative has made a
Very dignified and fair as we'll as able
presentation of that side, but the neg
ative joins issue squarely.
1--WE believe that the physical is
an essential part of education, a part
which is sadly neglected today, despite
the great activity in interscholastic
games. These sports reach only a
portion of the pupils and not those
who need vigorous outdoor exercise
the more. The development of a
first team, worthy to bear the stand
ard of the school, bars out the boys
and girls who need the exercise, but
are physically or mentally incapable
of making the team
abolish the first team, distribute
the most talented athletes among a
half dozen or more teams and have
the match games played within the
school. This will afford all the COM
petition necessary to provide interest
and enthusiasm in play, which after
all, must be spontaneous and free
from the heavy responsibility Of bear
ing the "honor of the school, in or
der to be most beneficial.
Boys and girls should desire VIC
tory; they must play to win, but the
present system places a value on vic
tory quite out of proportion to the
real 10y in the game itself" Victory
at any cost is demoralizing to per-
sonal and institutional honor and to
the genuine spirit Of craftsmanship.
The negative is firmly convinced that
athletics which require the COMPETE
ton of interscholastic games in order
to arouse an interest have little edu-
cational value and may safely be per-
mitted to languish.
The analogy drawn by the affir-
NATIVE between interscholastic ath-
letics and interscholastic oratory, de-
batting and other intellectual con-
tests does lot hold, in the judgment
Of the negative. These latter have a
direct bearing upon the preparation
of the pupils for the sort of contests
they must meet in practical life and
If the stimulus Of interscholastic
competition is necessary in order to
arouse the proper interest, which the
negative does not grant, it would be
legitimate. Even then, the num-
Der of such contests should be great
ly extended because Of necessity they
exaggerate the importance of only a
few pupils.
