Joe Williams Says— Don’t Limit Probe of Schools

About the last thing this country needs is another

congressional investigation,

points up the urgent need of a re-examination of our educational system with pointed reference to sports, both in high

This may take the form of cash, expensive gifts or class room connation wide, and with the accent on wingrowing

IF THERE 1s a moral down in our youth the educators

are contributing to it, In most schools football, for example, is justified by the fact that the gate receipts make it Possible

to support a complete sports pro-

gram, and usually on a lavish scale. Thus the schools, mostly at no added expense, are abie tq

present a more attractive sell-

ing point to prospective stu-. dents. By any interpretation this becomes a racket, and if the schools won't act to eliminate it why shouldn't the government move in? Let us have a full length investigation of how sports are handled in our schools. Call the educators, the trustees and the athletic directors and let us hear from them just how they put their teams together, What methods do they use? What conces gions do they make? How valid

are their degrees? We have .laws

against quack doctors. Why not against spurious college diplomas? It. has. been evident for some time that exploitation of school and college athletes has gone

As matters stand now no distinctions are: made or asked and all colleges are lumped together, though some may be almost as professional in character as the Chicago Bears. It is general practice these days for high school players to shop around for the best offer they can get, I know of cases where their dads have even taken care of their campaigns, |
