Prof. Prichett suggests that it
would be a real contribution to
education if Notre Dame and
Southern California would indi-
cate how far the profits of their
football business are using in sup
porting their educational actiVl-
ties.
Suggests Explanation
Further, he suggests that the
two schools indicate the relation
of the football industry and the
intellectual life.
Prof. Prichett, however, does not
suggest that the Carnegie Trusts
indicate how far the profits OF
Andrew Carnegie are used in sup
porting international movements
as opposed to American move
ments. Further, he does not
suggest that his foundation indl-
cate the relationship of the Car
negie Trusts and American life.
This commercialiSm in foot
ball, at Notre Dame and at South
ern California, is interesting,
since it is exposed by the Car
negie Foundation for the Ad-
vancement of Teaching
The Washington times., 1934-02-19

Today, also, the Carnegie Foun
dation for the Advancement Of
Teaching informs the wide world,
by word and innuendo, that the
Universities of Notre Dame and
Southern California exploit stu
dents in football to make money.
No mention is made of who and
what were exploited that the five
Carnegie Trusts should have a
mere $246,011,295 in the kitty in
the second year before the New
Deal.
Henry S. Pritchett, of New
York. president emeritus of the
foundation, attacks Notre Dame
and Southern California in a
treatise called "A Slump in the
Football Trade"
In particular, the president
emeritus of the foundation which
shares that $246,011,295 lambasts
the three-year contract between
Notre Dame and Southern Cali
fornia.
Three-Year Contract
Prof. Pritchett explains that
the two widely known schools
felt justified in signing a con-
tract for three years in their
football business, which, in spite
of the fact that they are more
than 1000 miles apart and the
expenses of travel are heavy, will
no doubt yield a satisfactory
profit"
The professor neglects to make
any mention Of the connection
between his foundation and the
distribution of $20,361, 900 in re.
firing allowances for teachers and
pensions for their widows up to
June of 1880. Nor does Prof.
Pritchett make mention Of his
foundation carrying, as Of that
same date, 1919 teacher inSur'
ance and annunity contracts, the
total amount of such annuities
being $13,662 1000 and Of such in
surance $36,666,000.
Representative Tinkham Talks
Incidentally. Prof. Pritchett
also neglects to make any mention
of his foundations connection
with the 5000 million dollar in
dustry known as education.
Readers probably will recall
that Representative George Hol-
den Tinkham, of Massachusetts,,
about a year ago said on the floor
of the House: &c. Their (mean-
ing the foundations) purpose and
their methods should be disclosed.

Complicating the issue consider.

Venzke, whoe fine showing in the
