DEAN HUBBARD HAS PUT HIS FOOT
DOWN HARD.
The Boys Would Not Act Right-And
Too the Work is Harder in the
Classes Waiting and Gnash-
ing of Teeth-5ut What's the
Use-The Very Last Stran
-"Borke the Cancels
Back'-People Sorry.

There is wailing and crashing Of
teeth i'm Nashville, throughout Ten
nessee and to the remotest parts Of
the country over the announcement
and final decision Of Dean George w
Hubbard that there will be no foot
ball at Meharry this year. And as
far as can be learned, there is not
likely to be any next year, for 1t
seems that the death blow has been
delivered 1t was hard for the people
to believe that DR.. Hubbard would
stick to such a decision, for he has
always been a most ardent football
supporter. He was as deeply interest
ed in the outcome of the Meharry
games as any student He was proud
of the boys, but the boys lost sight
Of one thing, and that is, tnat Dean
Hubbard puts Meharrry above every
thing in the world. They forgot that
he has spent his life to make that in
titution what it is today, and they
further forgot that DR.. Hubbard be-
lieves in Meharry boys having IN
tegrity. These things have served to
break up football at Meharry. Added
to these is the additional work that
must be done by the students, and
it was too much to expect the Dean
to tolerate all of these things just
to have football.
II is learned that the last year
Meharry played the boys forgot to
settle up with the Dean. Last year
they made the feeble attempt to
straighten up matters, that is the stu
dents who were interested in foot
ball endeavored to clear the way for
the boys in the future, but the student
body would not respond to the appeal.
They did not feel like going in their
pockets and refunding money that
should have been paid by the mana
gers of the last Athletic Association.
So the indebtedness was not paid.
1t is not known definitely whether
this is the chief cause of the refusal
of the Dean to allow football at Me
harry this year, but it is known that
this discrepancy interfered with the
game last year and it is believed by
many that had the boys been prompt
in the settlement that they might
have had football at least one more
year. 1t is all over now but the shed
ding of the tears. There will be nc
football at Meharry for many moons
unless Dean Hubbard changes his
mind and that is not a customary
thing for him to do, The people are
sorry but do not blame DR.. Hubbard
for the situation They know he has
been very tolerant with the boys.
