Big Conferences !!
Move Cautiously
On De-enlpIlasiis;
Few Schools Quick
To Adopt Ivy Loops
Spring Practice Ban
BY lie Assoelat.d Pres,

NEW YORK, Feb. 2O.-Tl1e bic
conferences and powerful i inde-
|pendents were looking carefully In
all directions and stepping eau
tiously today as a result Of the
Ivy League banning spring foot
ball practice.
The American Council on Edu-
cation recently drew up a drastic
program to place sports In their
proper niche in the academic
world.
The Ivy League thus BECAME
the first group to do something
about the program. Actually,
Yale banned spring football
months ago. and at that time
even the Els Ivy League brothers
seemed in no mood to go along
Course Uncertain.
Reaves E. Peters, executive Sec
retary of the Big Seven. sounded
what seems to be the keynote
when he said:
1--WE still are operating under
NCAA rules. I don't think most
conferences know exactly where
they are going"
The new NCAA rules say that
a school can hold only 20 spring
practice sessions within 80 days.
: Bernie Moore, president Of the
powerful Southeastern Confer
ence, said there has been no re-
action in his league either to the
ACE program or the Ivy League
action.
Max Harrington of George
Washington University, president
of the Southern Conference, said
he expected all conference schools
to go ahead with spring football
as planned.
Big Ten to Hold Meeting.
In the Big Ten. no official at
titude probably will be known un-
til a spring meeting. which won't
be held before April /. At pres
ent, the conference plans to fol-
low the 20-practice rule, with
workouts starting about March l,
Notre Dame, an independent
which follows Big Ten rules, said
through Ed Moose" Krause. ath-
letic director:
I'VE. don't know about spring
football practice yet. Wen wait
and see what the others do"
Commissioner E. L. (Dick)
Romney said the Skyline Con-
ference presidents will decide
whether to have spring football
practice at a future meeting.
But the Rocky Mountain Confer
ence may do away with spring
practice next year. according to
Dean M. I. Singer of the Colorado
School of Mines, although he said
the loop intends to hold the
allotted 20 sessions this year.
Southwest Opposes Ban.
The Southwest Conference pro-
duced these remarks:
Jess Nicely, Rice athletic di-
rector: Spring practice never has
hurt anybody, especially on the
limited scale we have it in the
Southwest Conference which holds
it to 18 days"
II. N. Russell, Southern Metho-
dist football coach: II don't be-
lieve the trouble with college ath-
letics has been spring football.
I can see nothing wrong with a
boy wanting to improve himself in
"a sport. They do in other sports
like golf, tennis and boxing where
they work the year round. AT
|SMU, we do not permit spring
football to interfere with other
sports"
On the Pacific Coast, California,
which annually is in the midst OF
the race for the league football
championship, is maintaining q
policy Of watchful waiting.

How to Be Good PortyGWer: No. II
Entertaining Aids and Basic Equipment

sharp knives on the table fol-
steaks and chops are a passion
with me. Until you become used
to sharpening them. have an ex-
pert do it. Don't ever use your
knives to pry things open, or tc
cut against a metal surface.
You need wooden cutting
board for slicing, if you are to
preserve a good cutting edge. AND
don't use knives instead of scis-
SorS.
Steak knives are in the luxury
class. but they are much more i'm
portant than some other things
you may want. You can begin
nicely with four.
If you are doing much house
keeping at all, a generous supply
of glasses is important. Consider
what you will most often serve in
them when selecting size, color
and shape.
Trays are important to your
own comfort as we'll as for enter
tanning. I have never heard of
any one who had too many, and
to me Housekeeping would be i'm
possible without them. They
should be light for easy carrying
sturdy, and easy to clean. It helps
to have them stain-proof.
Chino and Silver
Not being able to afford fine
china, the best crystal and sterl-
ing silver when you start house
keeping may be quite a blessing

Organizing home to serve your
fondest dreams is now possible.
However, to be sure Of selecting
only that equipment which will
pay its storage way in value and
usefulness. remember that each
thing you buy is supposed to re-
lease you from some task or
anxiety to increase your happiness
and leisure.
Let's begin to look over your
basic cooking and entertaining
supplies in the kitchen. In decid-
ing where 10-cent-store items can
substitute without pain for NEST
costly utensils, estimate the
amount Of use they will get.
When it comes to spring. form
cake pans. knives. cooking uten-
sis and pressure cooker, it is
economy to get the best you can
buy. These are long-range invest
ments. But it doesn't matter what
you pay for q wooden salad bowl,
Is the unfinished ones are best.
Some Of the kitchen items I
consider essential are: A wooden
pepper mill, double boiler, small
skillet, large skillet with lid, COM
pany size coffee maker, griddle,
