PURPOSE OF FOOTBALL

DIR. w. NJ. Riggs, president Of Glenn
son College, has submitted to the
newspapers his observations on foot
ball in language that is almost classi-
cal. From literary standpoint, Presi-
dent Riggs exposition is web worth
reading, lbut it's intent was to inn
press on the alumni Of the colleges,
those in charge Of the institutions and
the public generally the greater neces-
sity for faculty control Of athletics.
He points out that football, which
is just now coming into its own in
the south, is necessary to wholesome
college life. To quote:
II YIELDS the student body in loyal
ty to common cause which means
college spirit and college pride. 1t
adds zest and interest to college life.
It constitutes a living bond between
the aumnus and his college, and above
all, it develops, or should develop, III
the student body spirit Of true
sportsmanship which stands for gcncr-
Gus rivalry and fair play. 1t teaches
young men in tho mass the whole
some lfc-lessons Of disappointment
without bitterness, rivalry without hat
red. and defeat without surrender. It
teaches them that there are two vic
tories to be striven for-onc upon the
field of play and the other on the
side lines. When I saw the Clemson
cadet corps, and with equal Chivalry
the Furman student body, to a man
stand uncovered and at attention while
rooters on the opposite side sang their
"Alma Mater" | felt that regardless
of which team won on the gTidron,
both student bodies had won o great
victory for good sportsmanship. was
more than ever convinced Of the
worth whileness Of these contests be-
tween colleges.
That is we'll said. The mere winning
Of games is not the real thing, and
DR.. Riggs imposes at Clemson thi
same conditions on athletes that is
imposed on other students. The Glenn.
son student body has not missed
day from class on account of foot.
ball and athletes are not permitted
to remain away from their classes
more than ten days in any one ses-
sion. He speaks truly when he says
that 50 per cent Of the students pur-
sue their college work undisturbed by
varsity athletics. They attend the
games when they can and cheer their
team, but they lose little time.
