special offers to athletes on account of their athletic ability. — ator’ |

I know that you do not went to sell your academic birthright
for a mess of pottage. I tell all the boys that you can get propositions from
many schools, but if I were you I would pick out a sehool that you really want
to attend, and then go to that school regardless of whether you make $15.00 a

kind for athletes here at the University, :

three other things besides academics which a student may indulge in here on
Mount Oread = athletics, politics and social life. A boy who works his way
still make a go of his academic work and his chosen avocation or hobby. About
15% of the students at the University participate in athletics; about 15%
take part in politics as their hobby; and about 15% are active in the social
life. To endeavor te do more than one of these three prime non-necessities
of student existence is a sure debacle as far as your academic work is con-
cerned.
