COLLEGE HEAD DENIES CHARGE . Notre Dame Acting Presi* i dent Answers Charge Against Football South Rond. Ind., Fob. •<>. (U.R) Notre D.tme university would abandon football If it interfered with the school's intellectual pur! suits, the Rev. John F. O'Hara. | C.S.C., acting president of the university. said today in answer to the I charges made against Notre Dame and Southern California by Henry IS. Pritchett, president emeritus of | the Carnegie Foundation for the I Advancement of Teaching. ‘‘We believe that Dr. Pritchett has started with a false assumption that highly publicized football is inimical to the in'tellectual interests of the university." said Father O'Hara. "We would drop football if w" ever found it to be the case." In answering Dr. Pritchett’s re port asking for information about | Notre Dame’s advancement of intellectual pursuits. Father O'Hara cited the fact that 20 priests are studying for advanced degrees in six universities, and that during the past decade priest- teachers i have studied at famous universities throughout Europe and in the Unit led States. Father O'Hara also I pointed out that only 20 per cent of the $4,000,(mu increase in the material plant at Notre Dame dur ' ing the past 12 years is devoted to i athletics. Father O’Hara also mentioned the fact that Notre Dame’s spirit- . ual work has won international respite. and has been embodied in annual reports fnr 14 years. The Carnegie report’s criticism ' of Notre Dame and Southern Calij fornia signing of three-year con- . tract to engage in football games drew the following comment from I Father O'Hara: "Aside from the fact that South 'em California furnishes decidedly ' wogth while competition, we have | a large group of alumni on the, I coast. If our interest in the game were only commercial we could I yield to the heavy pressure exert -I led every time Southern California [ conies east, and play the game at. i Chicago, where the number of specI tators would be 70.000 to 80,000 I larger than at South Bend.’’ Commenting on Dr. Pritchett’s I reference to European universities.
