tee on arrangements for the
trip were Tomo Filkovic,
president; Milan Kirin, secre.
tary; and Victor Holjac, who
doubled in brass as secretary

SubsidiZing Athletes
o And the English Section

. And the English Section
'of Nov. 6, 1929, had some
thing to say about the grant
ing of college scholarships to
star gridders, cagers, and
other athletic aces.
What prompted the Editor
to take a crack at the subject
was the Carnegie Foundation
Report of 1929, in which the
University of M c h 6 a n,
Washington and jefferson,
New York University, Stan
ford, Carnegie Tech, Pitt, and
many others, were blasted for
awarding scholarships on the
basis of athletic ability alone.
Of course all the schools
named were quick to say "it
isn't So" .>'-
But, look
TWenty-elght years later
Washington and Jefferson,
New York u, and Carnegie
Tech, to mention only a few,
are playing football for the
sheer fun of it.
Pitt, on the other hand, de-
emphasized the sport for a
spell, but is now back in the
saddle again with the max.
