President Hibben Fapors
Less Emphasis on Football.

Special Dispatch to THE NEw York HERALD.
PRINCETON, ". j., Jan. 19.-President
yohn Grier Hibben of Princeton Univer-
ssty refused to comment tonight upon
tho press reports of the statements Of
President Lowell of Harvard to the
effect tat Intercollegiate football Is
looming too large I'm college circles.
mot having seen Presidents Lowell's
report and having before me only the
press extracts, do not feel like making 9
any comment upon his statements" de-
c!ared President Hibben- II would
wish. however" he added. 'to express
my willingness TO cooperate with any
rovemcnt to minimize the undue en-
pbasis placed upon football contests"
Dean Howard McClenahan, Prince
ton representative In the big three
counci)s. declined To comment upon the
proposal to lessen the emphasis. At the
same time. however. undergraduate opin-
Ion at Princeton was keenly Interested
IN the situation. Most Of the students
appear to believe that certain undue
emphasis does exist. but that it is not
que primarily to outside causes and that
proper measures In the colleges them
selves would prove the proper remedy.
Others agreed with President Lowell
and still others thought that intercoIle-
giate football is perfectly all right as
IL stands to-day and should not be
tampered with.

lie is showing in intercollegiate football.
At Pennsylvania the interest has grown
very steadily in the last few years, but
since a vast majority of the spectators
are college men, alumni or students.
their interest is natural enough.
'"rhe principal dangers, as see them.
are tendency to hippodrome college
football I'm the interest of bigger gate
receipts and the undue publicity which
the players receive. The remedy Is to
distribute the interest OF the public and
undergraduates over a greater nurrlber
of sports instead Of concentrating It on
football, but so long as college officials
demand high scholarship from their
athletes and the business end of it is
carefully supervised the evils referred 70
will be kept down to q minimum.
AT Pennsylvania We are more than
doubling the size Of our football fields.

athletic authorities and faculty. MEM

port or President Lowell's contentious
that college athletics are tending to
overstep their natural bounds. a stanch
stand was taken by all authorities ex-
pressing their opinion against the trend
toward commcrciallzatio in college ath-
letic circles and that its elimination
would aid both education and athletics
alike.
PRESIDENT Ernest Martin Hopkins OK
presses his stand on the subject az foll-
low: 1.-THE college must decide whether
football Is a sport participated In by the
members OF the undergraduate body as
an incidental part Of their college careers
or whether colleges exist for the train
ing and development of football players
Prof. James a. Richardson, head OF
the faculty representation on the ath-
letic council, said that the things TO be
feared were the danger OF PROFESSIONAL
ism creeping in and the demand for a
winning team at all costs. lie added |:
These contingencies are more danger
GUS than the strictly public interest IN
the sport. although 1t is true that COM
mcrcialism In the form of ,hig gate re-
celpts Is TO some extent bad inilu-
cnce."
rrof. Mecklin Of the sociology denart-
ment agreed with President Lowelrs
statements. saying that the whole Amer
lean people had more interest IN sport
than in art aud literature and that the
sporting element has altogether too
much influence on athletics.
In the minds OF the Dartmouth stu
dent body President Lowell Is Judged to
be In the right I'm 50 far "a the present

Special Dispatch to THE NEW York HERALp
New HAVEN. Conn.,, Jan. 19.-AIl
Yale was interested to-day in reading
the statement of DR.. Lawrence Lowell
of Harvard. in which he said that uni
versities and the public are making too
much of football. An effort was made
to get a statement rom DR.. James Row.
land Angel, Yale's president. but he de-
cifned 60 say anything at this time. II
may be that later DR.. Angel will talk on
the subject.
Prof. Clarence w. Mendell the chair
man of the athletic association, said he
would not comment on DR.. Lowells
statement. as it was purely matter OF
university policy.
1T is nothing that the athletic as
sociation has anything to say about, y
Prof. Mendell said lit is a question to
be decided by the corporation"
The sentiment, as far as could be
learned among the members of the Yale
faculty, differs from that at Cambridge.
DIR. Angell an athlete himself in his first
address here less than a year ago said
he believed In a policy of athletics for
everybody" 1t was reported that DR..
Angel would be for curtailment of
athletics, but his first public utterance
disproved this.
1t has never been felt here that the
strenuous football season has in any way
affected the men from the standpoint of
their studies. There was disposition
among the student body at Yale and
alumni as we'll to hold that Lowell has
in his arraignment of football and other
spectacular contests to which the public
Is admitted failed to grasp the psyche
logical effect of the sports on the stu
dents and alumni of American universi-
tics,
1t was pointed out that football games,
for instance, provide relaxation for
those who attend as spectators as well
rs for those who participate in them, and
that If the time was not taken up In
this wise 1t would go into some other
pastime far less worth while. Further
more, these contests with the additional
rivals help to breed the spirit of loyalty
In the student body and keep the alumni
In closer touch with their alma mater.
The custom of the English universi-
ties which Lowell touches upon. of hold
Ing one big contest in each sport an
nually was not viewed kindly by the Yale
men. for financial and other reasons
One game year in the Yale Bowl, for
example, would not pay its upkeep nor
stimulate public interest in the collegiate
game. And when public interest COM
nenced to drag, the sport would be near
ing the end. 1t was believed. Such plan
might work out all right with rowing, II
was pointed out but not with baseball
or football. for on these the athletic as
sociations of the American universities
depend for funds with which to finance
their athletics during the entire year.
