Urges IHSAA To Expand

Too many youngsters sit’ in easy chairs watching baseball on television when they should be out in a sandlot playing the game and developing their muscles, Big Ten Commissioner Kenneth L. (Tug) Wilson said yesterday. “We've got to expand our athletic program,” Wilson told the Indiana High School Athletic Association at an annual meeting. “It hurts to see kids watching baseball on television instead of playing the game.” * He said it was “not nice to look at the figures” which show

Illinois one out of every five boys grad-

“When you allow an institution to make offers for athletic purposes . . . it's a vast injustice [to the kid. We must try to dis-| courage’ subsidization. An athlete competes for the joy of it. He shouldn't be a hireling. He should choose a college for what he can get out of it academically afcer four years.”
