. at Wt 11... i,,t 2 tx tjltiw 1925 The Chief , ti' f i Are Athletics lmproving? O often does one hear this question concerning the improvements upon inter-scholastic athletics. I might mention right here taking all in all that amateur athletics are now being conducted on a much higher plane than ever before, especially since the Vllorld Vllar. It is self-evident to every man that has been a student of athletics for any considerable length of time that the conditions are far better than at any time before, but today you End some people that do not agree with you. One then must produce a few facts that will tend to prove it. In the first place players today have a finer regard for rules than they did several years ago. You will not find as many penalties inflicted for holding, un- necessary roughness and unsportsman-like conduct as was prevalent in past years. ln the second place rivals are not treated as enemies but are considered as friendly competitors. Nowadays visiting teams and followers are met upon arrival by representatives of the school and shown all courtesies that are due them while they are in the city. In the earlier days fights between rival crowds were not uncommon but today such things seldom occur. In the third place, in the last few years a great many High School Athletic Associations have been created for the improvement of athletics. These organi- zations are formed to rid the high schools of professionalism, recruiting, gambling and the like. Also the members have conducted educational programs designed to teach students and followers the meaning of sportmanship and respect for the rules. The Ohio Scholastic Association have elected and employed a man to act as The Ohio Athletic Commissioner whose duty is to see that all schools in the associations adhere strictly to the rules and to settle all disputes that arise among the various high schools. .
