■ 1 splendid co-operation of the coach, the student manager, and the team itself, with the faculty ' s committee, very distinct progress has been made in fixing our standards and ideals in relation to inter-collegiate sports. It may be con- fidently stated that the year ' s record has put athletics at a premium in the esteem of those to whom we must look for those facilities which are requisite in the actualization of our hopes and dreams in the sphere of inter-collegiate athletics. The place of athletics in student life is rightly conceived only when sports are subsidized to the development of manliness and brawn is cultivated as an accessory to brain. In contemplating the aims of athletics, Edward A. Guests ' s lines are after all, quite apropos — ' This I would like to be — braver and finer. Just a bit wiser because I am older, Just a bit kinder to those I may meet. Just a bit manlier taking defeat. This I would like to be — just a bit fairer, More of a smiler and less of a whiner. Even in the briefest retrospect of t he year ' s happenings mention must be made of Mrs. Joslyn ' s generous offer of thirty thousand dollars toward a new building. It should quicken hope and courage and should challenge us all to our best efforts in bringing the University to its cherished goal of service and efficiency. Page Twelve
