SECRECY In
ATHLETIC BOARD
Columbia Spectator" Urges Need
of Cooperation with the
Student Body.

1.-THE Columbia Spectator, which has
been hot on the trail of the Columbia
Athletic Association for secrecy in meth
DDS and general policy, let go another
broadside yesterday, demanding that the
existing conditions make 1t necessary
that the situation be made public and
open to the student body at large.
Harry Fisher, graduate manager OF
athletics, who IS representative OF the as
ISOLATION on the campus, remained out Of
the controversy, but it is expected that
some definite action will be taken by tine
university committee on athletics at its
next meeting THE Spectator has aroused
student sentiment TO high pitch and
feeling against the athletic association is
increasing day by day.
"In order TO be effective" said The
Spectator" ANY consideration OF the
problems involved in the present athletic
situation must be OF public nature. AS
matters stand now the immediate cause
OF dissatisfaction. aside from the football
question, is the feeling that has grown
up that the athletic association is thing
apart.
Through the methods now in vogue the
students have been impressed with the
fact that although they are In duty bound
! to tender their support. II is theirs not to
reason why in any respect. Some. while
not altogether satisfied. have produced
the desired support; others have sgnified
! their dissatisfaction by Withholding H..
while still others, through the athletic as
soclations failure TO enlist their interest,
material and personal. have gradually
drfted away.
"A policy of repellant aloofness and ST.
lence, whatever else can be said OF IL. has
never been found effective in booming
anything, and it is not likely 10 be any
different now. The best intentions in the
world may be behind 1t, but il is not an
pealing 10 the students as IL should ap-
peal.
| Closing ones eyes TO this fact will not
| change II in the least. The causes OF I'M
| mediate dissa tisfaction can and should be
removed, and in such a thoroughgoing
manner that all might hear. and hearing,
understand that the athletic association
had turned over a new leaf"
