Purchase of this book includes free trial access to www.million-books.com where you can read more than a million books for free. This is an OCR edition with typos. Excerpt from book: gate receipts, could be sent to the side lines until they bring forth fruits meet for repentance. If these things be true, our physical directors, our supervisors of athletics, and our coaches, are face to face with the opportunity of their lives. Never again will they have such a chance to demonstrate the permanent value of their work in the making of men. They can gladly accept the enforced economy and simplicity of war time and make it a permanent policy. They can discard all advertising schemes, all proselyting of secondary school stars, all exploitation of college manhood for commercial ends, and demonstrate beyond all future question that regulated sport is essential to regulated life in peace and in war. We cannot at this national crisis say business as usual; nor will we announce business suspended. We do not want athletics as usual, because they have usually been abused, nor do we want them abolished. But we want all business and all sport, all work and all play, relieved of superfluity and extravagance, stripped for action in the nation's service, and coordinated with the laboratory and the library and the classroom in the endless task of creating men fit to be citizens of America. III. Training Camp Activities. DR. JOSEPH E. RAYCROFT, PRINCETON UNIVERSITY. I could scarcely believe my ears when I listened to the address of a college president a moment ago, ?a wonderful example of the progress of the change in opinion which has come about with many of our educational leaders in the past few years. The address was a splendid introduction to an account of the work which is going on in the camps, because President Faunce outlined in detail most effectively the value of play activities and of games as a part of any educational system and of military training..
