COIlinsville offered a fine opportunity
for baseball, though the infields there

This probably accounts for Fletcher

diamond in Southern Illinois would
inevitably make light of any chance

green glass playing field to the Polo

Why Have Athletics?

Some have asked. why have
athletics in our public schools.
colleges and universities?
There are different reasons
why they should be there When
they adopt the motto of clean
athletics, many boys are kept in
school who would not be there if
it were not for athletics. And
if the athletics will keep them in
school and cause them to study
and make their grades, well and
good.
The writer had a roommate in
college, who played on the same
foot ball team until the season
was over and then left school.
He studied hard and made good
grades while in school and might
have remained in school all year
had there been foot ball all year.
Many colleges and universities
in the United States today would
not receive sufficient support to
run if il were not for the athlet-
les holding their students. Then
the attendance of those who go
for the athletics keeps schools in
existance for the benefit of those
who do not take part in the ath-
letics.
When any college or universi-
ty takes great interest in athlet-
les, you generally find a good
school doing good work, and well
supported financially.
And when the students are not
permitted to have athletics, the
school goes backward. At one
time the pious old president OF
Hedding College at Abingdon.
ILL.,. would not permit any foot
ball. The students assembled,
barned and buried their foot ball
and then many left for other
colleges. A change in president
