FIELDING YOST IS ". (. 4. 4. SPEAKER
Michigan Coach Talks On Sportsmanship To
 Delegates

ATLANTA, Ga, Dec. 29.--Nations have succeeded in democratic govern ment in almost exact proportion to their their participation in Hcompeti- tive games and athletics" and for this reason if no other athletics de- serve an important place in your program of education, Fielding H. Yost, director of athletics for the University of Michigan told the Foot ball Coaches Association of America which met here today.
 "As ancient Greece was supreme democracy, so she was supreme in games" he said. To-day, Great Britain and America lead the world in athle- tics as they point the way to demo- cracy"
 There is no synonym for sports manship." Mr, Yost said. but the word that comes nearest to it is respect" :"
 "The good sportsman has respect for his opponent" he set forth; The respects the rules of the game and seeks no unfair advantage The sportsmanlike player respects the of ficials and abides by their decisions. Above all, the good sportsman re- spects the game he is playing and conducts himself at all times in such manner as never to bring criticism or discredit upon it's name"
 Sportsmanship does not end with the players, he said, but also em braces the spectators. He added that "the students and other spectators at college contests are on trial just as surely as are members of the term"
 Footballs value, he said, ''to the men who play it and the men and women who watch it played, depends upon the degree to which it fulfills certain requirements which have nothing whatever to do with the of the game itself. It must foster spirit of fair play and good sportsmanship in both play CT and spectator and 1t must impress upon participants and audience alike that it is a means to an end not an end in itself. It must furnish ot the thorughtful observer some grounds for believing that it Is an integral part of the educational sys- tenn and not merely an athletic To

yard line.
 Action by the full meeting on the report of it's rules committee was deferred from this afternoon until tonight in order that full discussion might be had on the recommenda- tions. The meeting followed that of the National Collegiate Athletic as- sociation. which adjourned it's busi- ness sessions last night.
 The report of the rules commit tee was the outstanding business of the day sessions, which were other wise marked by addresses of lead CTS of the realm of football tutors.
 The collegiate association went on record as favoring strict enforcement of the rule prohibiting the use of sharp or metallic cleats.
 It was voted to request the Ma tional Collegiate Athletic associa- sociation which brought It's annual meeting to a close yesterday to es- tablish rules interpretation office to which coaches and schools may appeal for final decision on any dis pute over governing rules. Gen Palmer F. Pierce, president of tho National Collegiate Athletic associa- tion earlier in the day addressed the coaches and urged them to cooper ate with the collegiate body In it's investigation of the use of photo graphy, especially motion pictures, in "scouting."

more reserved and dignified but they always give the visiting player the credit that is due him.
 I always liked to play before crowds in those two cities. I was always treated royalty and yood naturedly. They might josh me but it Was done in good humor.
 Another development was in the umpires. At first they understood their business to be merely the de- ciding of plays TheX had to show great nerve at times, especially when there was a close one at the plate against the home club. They did not have protection from the police and you couldn't blame them for looking out for themselves.
 Gradually 1t dawned upon these umpires that they were masters of the field and that most important part of their duty was to have the game run off snappily and orderly. They were responsible to the public for the game being presented prop erly. Their duties developed into sort of stage direction. They had to put on ball game just like a stage director does show. They rep resented the dignity of the league. They know that now.
 Has it improved? Well. I should say so!
 Tomorrow: There was team work In
 those two days.
