Carlisle Will Withdraw From Active Football Work

Carlisle will not be a contender in future intercollegiate football games, as a result of a conference of the authorities at Carlisle. Secretary Lane held that in the future football must be subordinated to the educational features of the school, deciding that, while the game could be continued, it would be impossible for the team to make the showing that it should in intercollegiate games, owing to the large number of men now being educated in industrial and manufacturing establishments.

It developed that of 17 Carlisle Indians employed last year in one of the automobile factories, 13 were on the team or had been on previous teams. All returned to the school during the football season, at a sacrifice of educational opportunities as well as wages.
