Be Shortened
Tlic future of the Pacific Coast
Conference will be vitally affected
by the important questions which
will be decided at the meeting of
the conference today and Saturday
at Seattle it was announced by Pro
fessor Herbert C. Howe, president
of the - Pacific Coast Conference
who left Eugene yesterday morn
ing for Seattle. The biggest ques
tion perhaps to 'come before the
body will be the matter of partici
pation for freshmen. This will af
fect the future of athletics on the
Pacific coast very materially if
voted unfavorably on.
At the last conference meeting
several conference schools were in
favor of abolishing freshmen sports,
but nothing definite was decided
upon, Professor Howe said. The
whole question will be,, threshed out
and it will be definitely decided
whether or not the colleges will eon
, tinue the first year sports.
. Flunking Causes Trouble
“Freshmen have caused us a lot
of trouble by constantly flunking
out of school. It takes about a
year to get accustomed to college
life and to adjust ones self to col
lege work,” said Professor Howe.
“Those favoring to abolish fresh
men athletics think it would give
the freshmen more time to put in
on their studies. Others, however,
think that as it is compulsory in
most schools for freshmen to take
physical education, that if such
work could be carried on out on
the football field as well as in the
gymnasium. Playing freshmen
games would serve as a great ad
vantage, they contend, as it Would
give the coach of the football team
a chance to see how the yearlings
look under fire and it would give
him a lineup on his next year’s
eleven.”
“Another question which will bo
definitely settled is the future of
baseball as an intercollegiate sport.
There is a move to abolish the
sport entirely because it is not sup
ported by the student bodies and
because the status of the players
who participate in summer baseball
is in somewhat of a mess. Passing
on who is and who is not eligible
a difficult task. However, if some
plausible policy can be worked out
at Oregon we will vote to retain
baseball. So will O. A. C. accord
ing to a story published recently
in a Portland newspaper.
Rules To Be Cleared
“Heretofore students entering
from junior colleges and colleges
giving no degrees have been per
mitted to participate in sports as
soon as they have registered in one
of the conference schools. The con
ference will be called to clarify the
rules concerning participation of
athletes transferring .from these
schools.”
The rules governing the east
west football game at Pasadena,
managed by the Pacific Coast Con
ference, will probably be altered so
that it will not be so difficult to
Select a team to represent the con
ference. This year for the first
time a great deal of trouble was
found in lining up a team to repre
sent. the West.
The Western Conference in Cali
fornia voted to cut the practice
hours daily from three hours to
two hours and to abolish chalk
talks which come every night after
dinner at a meeting held last week.
In that way the time spent by the
players on- football would be cut
to a minimum it is thought.' Ore
gon, however, will not take the in
itiative in sponsoring that ntove
according to Professor Howe, unless
some other school brings up the
point first.
