week ban against the junior high
graduate works an injustice, Cog
gins believes. A boy entering a
senior institution in September is
not able to do much in the grid
game his first year, as he does not
become eligible until around No
vember 1.
Coggins also believes that another
public high school rule should be
changed This is the regulation which
enables a student transferring from one
school to another to compete in athletics
at his new school after six weeks. If 1t
is apparent that the boy is transferring
simply because he believes he could do
better in an athletic way, Coggins is in
favor Of barring him thereafter from
sports competition for the remainder CT
his time at the school instead of just
six weeks. However. should boy trans
fer because of change of residence or
some other good reason it would be an
entirely different situation.
Elmer Hardell, Tech director of ath-
letics, recently gave 1t as his opinion
that an athlete who transfers from one
school to another for no good reason
should be barred for year rather than
six weeks.
Both Coggins and Hardell are agreed
that should a long period of ineligibility
be provided athletes of the so-called
''fioater" type would hesitate long before
essaying any floating.
