First, Mr. Cotton contends that Mr. Wilson fails to lead his team in respect to the formulation of starting lineups, substitutions, and a style of play. By the end of December a starting lineup was permanently established despite a pair of injuries and the loss of a key starter. With the exception of Bob Inman's return the lineup remained unchanged through the course of the season. Similarly two particular substitutes, Merle McClung and Al Bornheimer, were regularly rotated with the starters to give them a brief rest and furnish offensive spark...
Regretfully, the situation has developed to the point that much of the team simply has no respect for Wilson as a basketball coach. Many players believe that Wilson is a negative force which must be overcome if they are to have a good team. Several players each year either quit the team or do not return the next season because of the coach.

At the beginning of his third year in the Senate he readily accepted...
...concentrate on the excellence that it has and improve upon it so far as possible. The recent establishment of a long overdue program to encourage the development of superior students was a welcome start in this direction. Through this program and others of its kind, the University must increase respect for learning among the student body. To do so effectively may require a thorough overhauling of the present dormitory and fraternity-sorority systems to give them some kind of intellectual awakening, or it may necessitate giving different kinds of degrees to graduates of those parts of the University which really...
