...compromise the undergraduate body is temporarily satisfied with this settlement of the problem, but as a final solution the proposition is fundamentally inadequate. By cutting down on the intercollegiate schedules and limiting outside games, the value and enjoyment of the minor sports are materially reduced.

For these reasons the new step is a stop-gap-measure, which, if allowed to become permanent, will result in the impaired utility of the newly-supported sports, since...

The solution of this and other problems we now leave to those to whom it belongs, the 1937 squad, Joe Stubbs, and the hands of Fate...

Meantime the Journal's panicky editors were ordered on about twelve hours' notice to add a new eight-page section to their Saturday edition, solved the problem by concocting an amusement section with cuts blown up to enormous size...
