THE UNIVEKSITY DAILY KANSAN OHIO COMMISSION TO "CLEAN UP" ATHLE ICS Seeks to Remove Undesirable Commercial and Professional Elements TO COORDINATE ACTIVITIES Athletics is Foe of Classroom Under Present System, is Charge To cleanse college athletics of "commercialism and professionalism" and "make them the servant and not the master of colleges or recommend the commission of the commission of the Association of Ohio College Presidents and Dean's The report was submitted recently at the annual meeting in Columbus, Ohio, by Dr. Edward S. Parsons, president of Marietta College. The commission's report followed a year's investigation into *eary*'s phase of college athletic activities. Eight major recommendations were made. The report says: "At the outset it should be understood clearly that the commission holds nothing against athletes, nor妄想 against competition, rightly conducted. The day of the anemic scholar has passed forever. Physical education of the right sort is all important to mental and social development, and is one he adapts with the moral control and direction of the moral life of the student. "The commission believes heartily in athletics—it simply is seeking to help in the realization of the best athletic life in the colleges." Under the first recommendation it is asserted that many of the greatest evils have arisen because the colleges and universities have left the development and control in a position to coordinate them fully with the main purpose of the college. Athletics too often have come to be regarded as something utterly separate from the class room and often have absorbed so large an amount of energy that little has been left for the main activities for which the college exists. The report charges that athletes have become the advertising agencies—of far less value, however, than the casual investigator realizes themselves are responsible for population, too often an opportunity for the gambler to ply his trade. It is recommended that athletics be brought absolutely under the control of the college faculty, and that the responsibility and control of all other college activities should be assigned to the responsibility and control of all other college funds rest. The eventual net profits of intercollegiate athletic funds, it is asserted, should become the property of the university itself for the development of physical education and other general activities. Other recommendations include: 1. The number of intercollegiate football games should not exceed seven or eight. 2. No trip should take the team more than 200 miles from home. 3. Basketball games on "study nights" should be avoided. 4. The practice of sending college teams on trips involving the playing of more than two games should be discouraged. 5. Pre-season trips for baseball practice games should not be permitted. Dains on Jury to Award Chemical Research Prize Dr. F. B.

Drescher's Correct Apparel for Women & Men When H2O Isn't Water "GENTLEMEN" said the Chem. Prof., at the end of the term, "You'll probably remember only one thing of all I've tried to teach you. And that is that Water is H2O—and then you'll be wrong." Even shaving soap isn't always shaving soap. A correct shaving preparation like Williams' Shaving Cream must do a lot more than simply make a lather. —It must be generous with its lather. It must be thick and creamy in cold water or hot. —It must hold its moisture. Williams' will not "freeze" dry on your face. —It must soften your beard right down to the very roots. —It must prepare your face for quick, gentle shaving. Williams' is so pure and wholesome that it actually helps the most tender skin.
