Co-Ed EnroI|s in Grid Class,

Grinnell is confident she'll make
the grade.
We're glad to have Miss Ull-
rich in the course" he says.
She's a very attentive student
and I am quite sure this back
ground work in athletics will
help her in her chosen field of
social work. At the same time,
she makes the male students
really pay attention as a matter
of pride"
Glass periods are devoted most
ly to drawing football plays and
explaining the various types of
offensive and defensive forma-
tions.
Ursula comedies that at first
such football terms as mouse

were bothersome.
But now" she says, II can talk

BOSTON, Mar. 20. Ursula
Ullrich, 21-year-old Northeastern
University coed, is an attrac-
tive girl to take to football
games-and you'll learn some of
the finer points of the sport, too.
Ursula is lending a feminine
touch as the only girl student
enrolled in the football course
at Northeastern taught by Coach
Johnny Grinnell in connection
with physical education program
there.
Majoring in sociology, Ursula
thinks a sound knowledge Of
football will be of invaluable
assistance when she enters the
social field.
"If I go into this type of work
upon graduation, I know that I
could teach youngsters in a COM
munity center something about
football. for when they're young
that's when they first get inter-
ested in this sport" she says.
Furthermore, I believe that
most girls who attend football
games every fall merely go for
the spectacle of the bright colors
and the fine college bands, with
out really knowing what's going
on"

LABOR AND THE FUTURE

Labor has a chance now to reestablish
itself in public esteer-and to demon
strate that great power involves great pub
lie responsibility
The idea that the interests of CAPITAL
and labor are inimical is both wrong and
ruinous. Labor wants high wages-and to
pay them business men must earn fair
profits. Labor wants a high standard of
iving-and to have that it must produce
sufficiently so that reasonably-priced
goods become abundant Labor wants an
important place i'm the councils of the ma
tion--and it must earn that by proving
Its interest in the national welfare.
The best and most aggressive unions
the country has known have fought mill
family for benefits for their members
and. at the same time, they have cooperat-
ed with business to maintain and broaden
markets, to get the work out, and to so
assure jobs. They have understood that
no group can long prosper if the rest of
the people do not. The future strength of
the American labor movement will depend
upon its acceptance of such principles as
these.
