A WURLD UF ATHLETICS In the games they play and the games they watch youth learns that there is nothing better than true sportsmanship. In sport, the player who is to be successful and respected must carry on beyond the point of nor- mal endurance. Sports make men. Our world has great need for men with the great moral and physical stamina that sports endow. It is evi- dent then that our world cannot survive without a well-grounded and well-regulated athletic program. Through supervised games we can go far to eliminate a feeling of defeatism. The amateur athlete naturally develops the attitude that he must constantly do a little better than his best. His team may be beaten, but he personally has not been defeated. Less than his best would draw the disdain of his fellow players and of those who watch from the side lines. There is the chance that these attitudes may carry over to the activities of adult life. Too, sports teach the youth to play the game according to the rules with due respect for the rights of others. From our vantage point the attitude of fair play is an assured outcome of the athletic program. From these truths, then, we deduce that from our properly conduct- ed play come many of those virtues which ennoble the race. It would be most timely for us to repeat here those words of the English poet who said: Sport, which still keeps the flag of idealism flying, is perhaps the most saving grace in the world at the moment, with its spirit of rules kept, and regard for the adversary whether the fight is going for or against. When, if ever, the fair-play spirit of sport reigns over interna- tional affairs, the cat force which rules there now will slink away and human life emerge for the Hrst time from the junglef' One of the most unusual years in our world of sports has come to an end-a year replete with many events one likes to recall. On the fol- lowing pages we present a condensed history of happenings in all kinds of competition, highlighted with pictures of persons and scenes that made the year so outstanding.
