A comparatively small but increas

the educational control of inter-collegiate
athletics. - This should be en

saving inter-collegiate sports from
self-destruction, and the colleges and
universities from self -degradation.
Inter-collegiate athletics have many
fine things to commend them as worth
saving on their highest levels. When

Value Of Athletics
The stadium would then become

high devotion expressed in music,

the precious meaning of alma mater
and the associated aspirations of the
human spirit. On the playing fields
of alma mater, vigorous and alert
youth, clean and masterful from self
denial and hard training, rejoicing in
their common strength, give their all
for the college and victory in good
spirit and take it all, blows, bruises,
and defeat, without quarter or whim

shocks to come. Of such is the spirit
of youth in the democracy of sports
which gives expression to the instinct

yearning of youth for enlistment in
a cause bigger than themselves, may
hap potentially- to be translated in
later years on higher levels in causes
as deep as the community and as wide

is so powerful .as sports; as subjects

With the granted values in the mak

Precedent Upheld
Tomorrow morning at 10:30
the freshman class will assem
ble on the steps of Manning hall '
to have group pictures taken for
the 1938 edition of the Yackety
Yack. The decision to have group
pictures of the class in the Uni
versity annual, was made at as
sembly yesterday when fresh
men voted almost unanimously
to retain the form which has
been used in previous years.
Less than 20 first year men vot
ed for the new plan, that of
using individual snapshots of 32
prominent members of the class,
while the rest agreed to con
tinue the use of group pictures
of the entire class. -
At a meeting early in the first
quarter, the freshman executive
committee decided, at the . sug
gestion of the Yackety-Yack, to
use part of the contracted space
in the annual for the individual
pictures instead of running the
usual gorup pictures.
Objection Raised
The matter was f orgottenun
til early this quarter when a
group of freshmen, led by Ray
Daugherty of New. Bern, began
a campaign to reinstate the old
form.
A week ago today, freshman
president Christian. Siewers,.in

committee had exceeded its au
thority in choosing the new plan.
