‘Outsiders’ Run Sport, | Coaches Told
Colleges Misuse Athletics, Dr. Hutchison Declares
By United Press
| NEW YORK,
| presidents have failed to realize the | significance of football, Ralph C. Hutchison, president of Washington
29.—College | | ‘and Jefferson College, told the Na= |
Dec.
| tional Collegiate Athletic Associa- | tion today. | “The crime against football,” he | said, “is that an emotional phenom-= | enon of greatest educational signifi- | | canse has been left to outsiders. | | College presidents and trustees have | | let football go its own way. Facul- | ties have been excluded from in- | | telligent participation and control. | Football has been compelled to | manage itself and grow without the | educational leadership to which it is entitled.” In discussing subsidies, Dr. | Hutchison said that many of the | nation’s football players are poor | boys because “rich boys have been ridden about in automobiles.” “As a result,” he said, the football teams are m=de up of Melinkoviches, Nagurskis and Chicknoskis.” Dr. Hutchison 3aid that “straight | thinking and unequivocal honesty” | were needed now more than ever | and declared that “three years of | absolute honesty would solve prob- | lems of 30 years standing.” | The American Football Coaches Association opened its session with | a display of movies covering for- | | ward pass interference plays. Bo McMillin of Indiana described | | the movies and asked the coaches and officials present to vote on whether there was interference. | There was disagreement in almost every case. The opening salvos fired yesterday | at meetings of the College Physical | Education Association and the National Sportmanship Brotherhood indicated that some think football | already has deserted the simon-pure | ranks.
Yost Challenges Charge
Dr. J. H. Nichols, Oberlin University, charged that some of the biz universities had gone so far along the professional road that the players and others connected with the sport had to be liars, cheats and compromise experts to retain their amateur standing. This remark was challenged by Fielding H. Yost of Michigan, among others, and Dr. Nichols modified the tenor of his remark by saying that he did not mean all large universities. Dr. Nichols urged the abolition of conferences, terming them merely setups to determine championships. Conferences tend, he said, to increase the pressure on coaches by magnifying the importance of victory. Betting Scored as Evil
Betting on college games as another evil which may strike at the heart of football was described by | Robert C. Clothier, Rutgers University president, who spoke before the Sportsmanship Brotherhood. Among the radical suggestions made by the educators were the elimination of gate receipts; confining rivalries to colleges of similar size and standards; an athletic program to be carried on by student activity fees and college appropriations; placing of coaches on full-time basis with faculty rank; operation of athletics on the same basis employed for all other college activ ities. The first meeting of the American | football coaches was today with debate over the forward pass interference rule likely to be the major issue,
‘Heavy Drill Is On
Times Special PASADENA, Cal, Dec. 20.—The Washington Huskies settled down to their last serious workout today and Pittsburgh's Panthers started tapering off for the Rose Bowl football game here Friday. The men from the North country, champions of the Pacific Coast Conference, were due for a heavy session of serimmaging and defen« sive work against Bittsburgh line plays at Brookside Park, training grounds of the Chicago White Sox baseball team. The Panthers, who are in perfect shape and aching for a chance to | win their first Rose Bowl game in { four starts, planned a light running | and kicking drill at their headquarters in Arrowhead Springs. They will work out briefly tomorrow and then move on to new headguarters at the Huntington Hotel in Pasadena.
Cotton Bowl Teams Feature Offense
Times Special DALLAS, Tex, Dec. 20-—-Two of the strongest offensive football teams of the 1036 season will be seen in action here New Year's afternoon when Marquette’s Golden Avalanche and Texas Christian's Horned Toads clash in the annual Cotton Bowl ganfe.
