UP TO THE STUDENTS

With the Athletic Committee's ready acquiescence to intercollegiate contests in spring sports, athletics once more are established on a sound basis. Baseball, track and crew may now start, assured that their season of practice will culminate in meeting opponents of similar status. The uncertainty as to the awarding of insignia forms a novel test of undergraduates' interest in exercise per se, for the men who have slaved through weeks of hated labor to wear the envied "H" will now be eliminated. Only those who enter these sports for the enjoyment or the benefit derived from them will be attracted. It is now up to the student body to prove that it is filled with just such men; that there are enough of such spirit to compose baseball nines, track squads and crew eights. If this becomes a proved fact, the return to intercollegiate games will be vindicated. Otherwise intercollegiate as well as informal schedules had better be relegated to the ash-heap.
