Management OF Athletics.

Your committee sees no particular
merit in the graduate manager system,
as now in force at the university, and
believes that much more could be ac-
complished If competent director OF
athletics were given supervision OF
the management of teams. There could
be a student manager, as formerly.
who could travel with the teams, and
look after them while on the various
trips. The athletic director would
make up the schedule, with the ap-
proval of the athletic board, and, gen
orally, supervise the management.

Coaching.

While ii is best to have coach for
each OF the athletic teams, it is inn
possible to employ such at this time;
but your committee recommends
special coach for football and one for
baseball. From its investigation, your
committee believes that a football
coach should be secured from either
Harvard, Yale, Pennsylvania, Prince
ton, Chicago or Michigan. In the past,
there has been too much changing in
the system of coaching. A coach
should be secured from some one of
the schools mentioned, his s',sstefn
startedsand continued for a sufficient
number of years to determine whether
or not it is the system which should
be used at the university.
The ideal coach should have the fol-
lowing requirements:
First: Irreproachable character.
He must believe in honorable conduct,
fair play and the students obligations
to the educational standards of the
university and see that they are not
sacrificed simply to win victories.
Second: Leadership and enthusiasm.
He must be natural leader, capable
of arousing enthusiasm, winning and
keeping the confidence and support OF
the students.
Third: Knowledge of the game and
ability to fmpart it TO others.
A man of this kind should be OBJ
tanned, and kept not for one season
only, even If the team should not prove
successful, but for several seasons, at
least long enough to give him chance
to show whether or not the system
used by him will prove the proper one.
IL would be we'll also to have an as
sistant football coach; but. in view OF
the lack of money for athletic purposes
~ ON oth1nffR director
should be selected who could act as
assistant football coach.
And here your committee recon-
mends that steps be taken to secure
the return OF the captains of the var
ions athletic teams, especially the
football and baseball teams, to assist
in coaching during the season follow
ing their captaincy or graduation
from the university.
And, on this subject, your committee
calls attention to the well known fact
that rigid and faithful training IS as
essential to success as good coaching,
and suggests that the students OF the
university must cooperate with the
coaches and members of the various
athletic teams in bringing about and
maintaining a strict adherence to,
training and the rules governing the
same. University spirit, enthusiasm
and cooperation on the part or the
student body is just as necessary as
anything else to successful season
in any sport and the students must
show such spirit, enthusiasm and CO.
operation If they are to have the sup
mort of the alumni OF the university.

Aubrey de We're, the gifted author
of that dramatic work, Beckett"
was born in 1914. At the close of
his college career. when the newspa-
pers were filled with satirical artic-
les against ireland, he produced his
English Misrule and Irish Mis-
Deeds" His numerous works in de-
fence of Ireland had great influence
on public opinion. He has written
many odes, sonnets and lyrics; of
the standard of the latter there has
never been doubling question.
Sir Henry Taylor has said of him:
mo lesser light
Than was light in Sydney's spirit
clear,
Or given to sanity Herbert to diffuse
Now lives in thine De Vere.'
De We're is fair rival of Tenney-
sons. 1t is true he does not possess
the exquisite incubation of the
laureate, yet he ''is grander poet"
De We're is too stoical, too classical,
to produce the soothing rhythm of
Tennyson. If their qualities could
have been divided-if Tennyson
could claim the orthodox principles
and loftiness of sentiment of De We're
and he, the illumination, embellish-
ment and keen style of Tennyson, no
other poets would be necessary to
add literary glory to the nineteenth
century.
The works upon which Aubrey
De Vere's fame rests are his "Alex-
ander the Great and Beckett"
which prove his power of delineation
Of character. The proud. pagan, am
bilious Alexander, perfectly por-
trayed. Thomas A. Beckett, the seat
Of Christian fortitude, humbly, mob
ly heroic.
In Tennyson's Beckett there is
that tender grace of day that is
dead" which makes it more captiv-
ating than DeVere's, but as an his
torical drama requires more than
that tender grace" there is found
in De Vere's those high, ennobling
qualities, a recitation of facts as
they occurred, not polished to please
the fancy of pleasure seekers.
At the opening of his career De
We're was strong admirer of Words
worth, and in his early writings he
has to some extent fallen into the
characteristic error of that writer,
but it was not for long. He discov-
cred his fault, and with experience
as his guide he opened new path
for himself, over which the zephyrs
of success and fame have soothingly
swept.
All glory and honor to the Bards
of Erin. Their mission has been no
BILE and lofty, and we'll have they per-
formed it.. When the nation lay
wounded and conquered, and the
aims and ambitions of her people
frustrated, the bards arose and set
aglow the almost extinguished
spark Of hope. What has poetry not
done for a nation! It is its encour-
ager and Interpreter; it upholds
them in the hour when danger and
destruction are at hand; it spurs
them on to action when all seems
lost; it guides them when they are
straying from the paths of their an
cestors. This and much more have
Erin's poets done in the voice Of
their national poetry; their laurel
wreaths are everlasting, for Ireland
is sincere. Her love for them shall
never falter or grow colder than the
day when verbal fame greeted them.
May Ireland's present and future
sons of song prove as true to her as
the past, and follow in the patriotic
footsteps of their predecessors
