Billy Hulen Says:
: Curtailment Due
For Some Phases
Of Prep Sports
Pacific coast college" are not
only NOT planning to curtail
their athletic programs because
of the war, they are arranging
to expand their activitlei in
every branch of sport, major
and minor.
The reason? Because physical
fitness in the nation's youth is a
vital issue during these times,
because the military services
are of the opinion that the more
athletics are stressed the health
ier will be our future fighting
men. Rightly so.
Thus, it appears that our par
ticipation In the world conflict
will have little, if any, effect on
football, basketball, baseball,
track, tennis, wrestling, boxing,
swimming and other minor
sports In the colleges and uni
versities. But, how Bbout athletics in
the high schools? Will the prep
pers be able to continue with
their present programs, or will
they be forced to tighten their
belts and retrench?
In the opinion of Leonard B.
Mayfield of Bedford high, high
schools will definitely be forced
to curtail their athletic pro
grams, principally because of
the tira rationing and discontin
uance of the manufacture of new
automobiles.
' "All unnecessary Interscho
lastlc competition such as
practice games and long Inter
sectional trips will be elimin
ated. I believe." Maylleld
said. "Not so much In foot
' ball, where most teams travel
In stages, but in basketball,
, tennis, track and othtr sports
where the teams travel In pri
vate cars."
Medford is going right ahead
with Its 1942 football scheduling
and Is negotiating with The
Dalles for a- game here, the
principal stated. However, he
said that next season's basket
ball slate would undoubtedly be
minus barnstorming trips for
Medford and Interactional tilts
here with school located at con
siderable dUtiw.- ;
"I feel we will be able to con
tinue the necessary games, those
In the district and conference,
but it's a different story with
pre-season practice and Inter
sectional contests," he empha
sized, "Those games, along with
'B' team games, will be strictly
limited If not entirely eliminat
ed. Already we have cut down
on 'B' squad games."
The big colleges and universi
ties, Mayfield pointed out, can
afford to send their athletic
teams by train or stage to dis
tant points, and thus won't be
effected by the rationing of tires.
With the high schools it's differ
ent. The prepprs travel mainly
in private cars many high
schools even provide that sort of
transportation for large football
squads and with tires no long
er available the teams will be
forced onto the stages or trains,
or stay at home. Probably the
latter, for high school -athletics,
especially basketball, track, ten
nis, etc., aren't noted for their
money-making propensities.
In the light of this informa
tion from Maylltld, we can
see next year's basketball
Tigers not making a two-game
foray to Coos Bay like they
did this season, nor Corvallls,
Salem and Marthfleld being
slated for tilts here. Games
such as these, while Interest
ing, are not "necessary", and

All in all, despite the fact that I
some phases of prep athletics

like the high schools are going
to do their part in providing
spectator and morale-helping
sports for the populace.
