Of fice ot the President, Corvallis Ore gon, November 22, 19-15. Editor the Mist: I notice your reference In the issue ot November 6 to the question ot college athletics. I am in full accord with your views, as Implied at least, that athletic con tests in educational institutions should not be allowed to Interfere with regular school work. In con sldering the present situation, it oc curs to me that the relative amount ot space given by the press to ac counts of athletic contests is likely to convey to the public mind an er roneous Idea regarding the time ac tually devoted to athletics in our educational institutions, and the ex tent to which participation in ath letic sports may interfere with reg ular course of work. Take the Oregon State Agricul tural College, for instance. I pre sume that thus far this year more space has actually been given by some ot the state papors to athletics than to all other college activities combined; and yet the fact is that at the college participation In athletics is a mere incident and is not allowed to Interfere with the regular studies. This year the only games requiring the absence of the football players from any class work are the Michigan game at Lansing and the -Syracuse game at Portland, the latter to be played Dec. 1. The Michigan game took the men from college ten days. For the Syracuse game they will miss one day's work. But all the work missed has to be made up. Upon the return ot the team from Michigan, a great deal of space was given in the press to the announce ment ot celebrations In honor of the players. Notwithstanding the big demonstration at the college, how ever, the arrangements were such that the students did not miss a single recitation. Another idea that is more or less prevalent is that football men,- par ticularly, are interested primarily, if not entirely, in athletics, and that they take as little other work as possible, and usually fail in it. At the Oregon Agricultural College, stu deuts who participate in athletics are under the same regulations as other students. They must carry regular work and maintain satisfact ory grades; otherwise they not only are Inhibited from participating in any athletic contest, but their stand ing in the institution would be Jeop ardizes. And any work missed by athletes, as well as other students, must be made up. The character of the men partici pating in athletics and their stand ing as students are indicated by the following report of the Registrar; of this year's football team, one Is graduate student, having received his first degree at the college last June; nine are seniors; seven are sopho mores; and three are freshmen. The average grade for the last semester of the men on this year's football team was 83 per cent. Men on the baseball team averaged 80 per cent; the basketball team, 81 per cent The twenty-two men participating in tracK last spring averaged 85 per cent. The captain of this year's team, with the greatest record last year as a sprinter, averaged 94 per cent. The general average of men students, numbering upwards of 1100, was 83.6 per cent. The gen eral average of all men participating In intercollegiate athletics foot ball, baseball, basketball, wrestling and track was 82 per cent. W. J. KERR. CLERK'S CASH ACCOUNT Nov to 2.
