facts are there: during sharp serim

uttered q. vile name to the Tornado

swing and missed by a proverbial
country block, but nevertheless drew
a penalty of 10 yards for unnecessary
roughness. Had the wild swing land

STATE H. S.
ATHLE
: MEETING
Question of Value of Sport
Important One Before
Athletic Body.

II INDIANAPOLIS. Ind. Oct. 2o.-Tho
athletics TO the high school boy and
girl will be one of the most important
questions to come before the repre-
Eentetives of SAB high schools of the
state who are to gather here for the
annual meeting OF the Indiana High
School Atnl etic Association at 1870
o'clock Thursday afternoon at the X
OF P. building The basis of this dis
cussion viii be the results Of a ques-
tionnaire made out by Arthur L. Tres
ter. of Laporte, permanent secretary OF
the association and the members OF the
board of control OF the ASSOCIATION and
returned by 254 high school principals
of Indiana
Answers to the questions seem to
indicate the validity OF the following
statements" says Secretary Trester in
his circular announcing the results Of
the questionnsire. Athletics aid
scholarship; elevate the morale OF --e
studentsi help solve the problem Of
general school discipline; unity the
student body. unity the community;
harm very few students physically or
morally. Gambling is not done by stu
dents and is not done on school prem
isesi hero worship of athletes has not
reached the danger point; athletics
should be en- integral part of the ply
steal training of the school: teachers
: are not afraid to funk members of the
athletic teams; principals have charge
of athletics; the athletic situation is
growing constantly better and the
merits outweigh the evils many fold"
e. While the above statements can be
supported IN the main they indicate
the danger spots TO all principals and
should serve as standards of athletic
control and conduct, says Mr.. Trester.
% The future of clean athletics will
be assured If present students are
taught cleanliness, fair m indednes
proper relationships, relative values,
good craftsmanship. and all other ele-
ments Of real and clean sports. The
best and highest In athletics will come
when teachers. coaches. principals and
superint endents are big enough to
handle their local situation at home
mako the findings OF the QUESTIONABLE
oar Standards" the circular reads
The circular was sent out last April.
