Give Prospective
Athletic Coaches a
College Course

In discussing the freshman ath-
ietcs problem at Harvard, william #
Garcelon, former graduate athletic
treasurer makes another plea for an
athletic coaching course for those stu
dents who are preparing for a career
as instructors in schools and colleges.
Mr.. Garceion states:
1T has been urged for the past five
yecrs that some action be taken on
this matter. Tut Harvard has stood
still, while nearly every small college
in the country has moved an sad. The
winning Of games and bringing home
of pionships to the university
gives us much Joy. Athletic organi-
cation and efficiency is worth while
and should not be and has not been
neglected. hut the boys who do not
know the Toy of running. of leaping.
or being physically active on the green
grass under the blue sky. should be
given a chance to learn what all that
means Those who are studying to
be educators should be given this help
In order that they may get out Of and
put the most into their work.
During the past / s years there has
come demand from public and pri-
waite schools for trained teachers who
could also take general charge of
athletics. Failing to ind men who
understood the athletic problems
frcm a broad study of them. they have
generally accepted men who have been
skillful football or baseball players
or track athletes. The appointments
office at Harvard Is steadily receiving
calls for men who can combine with
good scholarship a general knowledge
of athletics and physical education.
The added duties in athletics com
mand from $500 10 $500 additional
