/. Athletic scholarships should
be forbidden. All scholarships
should be given strictly on the
basis of students educational
ability and his economic needs.
2. Each sport should be played
and practiced only in its season.
Under their plan, football would
be practiced and played only from
Sept. l until the first Saturday
in December. Basketball practice
and games could not begin until
Dec. l and would end BY March

would be confined to the period
between March | and spring grad
