following suggestion for considera-
tion in the selection Of delegates:
There has been some criticism re-
Gently that the meetings are composed
too largely of representatives OF the
physical education department. This
association was organized by college
presidents and professors interested
in giving intercollegiate sports their
proper place in the college curriculum

achieved a new dignity: professors
and instructors in physical educa-
tion are now generally. and athletic
coaches are not infrequently. recog-
nized as members of the faculty on
par with others. The attendance of
athletic directors and coaches is al
ways welcome at our meetings, and
we look to them as experts to guide
us in framing decisions. On the other
hand. if they should ultimately con-
Stitute the majority of the member
ship and thus dominate the proceed

mere gathering of technical experts
and would lose the breadth of view
which has hitherto distinguished IT
and has given weight to its decisions.
Questions of further reform. tight

grouped to band themselves into con
ferences" for the furtherance OF the
work Of the association are expected
to be some of the most important
questions up for discussion this year.
A short time ago President Pierce,
stating the aims and ideals of the as
sociation over which he presides. said:

are essential for the best develop

is faculty control in SO far as neces-

CHIEF FACTOR FOR GRID
MERIT CITED BY CAMP

One element OF success for a
foot ball team lies in their own
ability to assimilatc the foot ball
instinct and knowledge which
leads to sclf-reIfance and indepen-
dehce of thought in n critical and
unexpected event. A team must be
trained to think Of foot ball situa-
ffOns with the same quickness and
accuracy aS will be required in
life. and each mnn must be taught
to make his decision at a critical
moment without the fatal hesitate
ing thought that he has not been
taught to meet that special crisis.
And this nll-American foot ball
team has been selected with this
fact in mind.
