Management W Football tfets Blame, Jacobs By Dillon Graham ATLANTA, Jan. 29 The trouble with football is a vicious system or management rather than the grant ing of scholarships in the opinion of Dr. Thornwell Jacobs, president of Oglethorpe university. "Tho fault lies in the vicious sys tem of allowing Alumni, students and 'outside business men' to operate and control the athletic programs. Consequent lack of interest in author ity over athletics by the college fac ulties Is' at the bottom, of all so- called evils of the game," Dr. Jacobs believes. , 'f'Theso schools would not consider turning over the operation of their chemistry department to students and alumni, but, evidently, think nothing -of placing one of the most important ana most popular depart mentft in their hands. "Tho department of nhvsieal eul- ; ture, incoming intercollegiate and t intra -mural sports, should come un tier the faculties the Bame as any utner ciass or suoject. witn ine coacn naving direct supervision." Favors Heholnrshlns I Dr. Jacobs favors the awarding of scii-ncip scnoiarsnips to students, athletes or non-athletes, who heed aid to finance their way through school, i ' "I don't hesitate to offer a schol arship to a nood violinist to studv here and play in our orchestra, so why the objection to making the same proposition to tne atniete," he says. "Any other attitude In the matter is hypocritical. If this is Subsidization, you can soy Oglethorpe university is In favor of It. "A college athlete receiving help should not bo regarded as a profes sional. He is as clean on amateur as any. He receives less for his par ticipation than the so-called amateur In golf, tennis and other sports not connected with collegiate sport." Dr. Jacobs soys there Is no such thing as over-emphasis In football. "It may be that other departments are undcr-emphaslzcd but certainly tho physical culture division is worth an the attention given to It. An i nthloto gives less time to his game lhan'to any single subject of his f college course. ' , "Tho nrorpKKOrs nnr! frtrMiHIfa nr at fuult In coses of students who tire Gate Receipts Are O. K.

It has takon Amos 'n' Andy to convince eastern Kentucky's hill folk that the radio is on the level. The attitude of the mountaineers toward the early radio was fairly well summed up by: 'You can't fool me that thing's full of records." But Amos 'n' Andy have changed this opinion. The mountaineers now have decided that their first decision as to what the radio box contained was wrong, and that the entertain ment actually comes through the air.
