P. Bank, president of the Athletic insti tute, has announced. "There's been a lot of talk this year both for and against competitive sports for kids," said Colonel Bank. "And, actual ly, the facts available at pres ent fail to offer much support for either the proponents or the opponents." The new competitive-sport re search project will study the basic traits of 8-12 year old boys who are engaged in all types of competitive sports and compare these traits with those of boys who do not participate. All of the research will be conducted over a period of several years in the Oregon public school sys tem under the direction of the school of physical education at the University of Oregon. "Enthusiasm for kid sports is sweeping the United States, especially in baseball, football, and basketball," commented Bank, "and the wave of poorly supported criticism that's pop ped up has made many parents fear that their children will be harmed by participation.
