...hoped that some of the more flagrant abuses of the old system will be eradicated when intercollegiate athletic contests are resumed. The whole array of paid coaches, trainers, scouts and other attendants ought to be cut down considerably and the number of games which involve traveling might well be reduced. These things have made college athletics unduly expensive in the past and have given all college sport the taint of semi-professionalism.

It was a striking spectacle as the column pushed its way out Columbus avenue. Every youth in that sturdy array had given up home comforts, school and business advantages, personal delights with friends and loved ones--had turned from all these to the rigors of camp and training stations--had subordinated himself to enders that must be obeyed without demur--had set himself to face terrifle perils overseas and lay down his life...
