The depression period was a good time to be going to the University of Minnesota instead of trying to get a job. Things were somewhat better when I was graduated in 1935, but the decision I had to make about my future was still a difficult one. The possibilities ranged from playing professional foot- ball to selling life insurance. A number of insurance com- panies approached me, but I was stubbornly blind to the oppor- tunities in that field. Having majored in business administra- tion, I felt there was a greater future in a sales job with a large automobile manufacturer- That's the job I took. It was a good one, providing excellent experience and a substantial salary. However, as the years went along, I often wondered about the permanency of my future in such a dynamic business. Was I building anything of my own? When the war curtailed car sales, it didn't take me long to decide on a career of life* insurance* It offered me a busi- ness of my own, with never a fear for security as long as I worked, and richly rewarding compensation in direct proportion to my efforts. As the company I wanted to live with the rest of my life, I chose the New England Mutual. Since January 1942, except for almost three years in the service, I have been thoroughly enjoying every day of life insurance. I can honestly say there hasn't been a single disappointment in my decision.

It is my personal pionion that all such information might be better handled as suggested in paragraph c above. Space does not permit a full discus- sion of the recruiting and subsidizing of college athletes. Alumni, coaches, and students are the chief participants in this recognized national racket. Which group is the more active has yet to be proved, but I believe it is the coaches. However, no group may take any pride in what can only be re- garded as a cheap and belittling prac- tice. No matter how successful a coach may be in assembling a winning squad, if his achievement is the result of "hiring" athletes, he deserves not credit, but condemnation. One won- ders how much thought and consider- ation are given to the effect on the moral fibre of the youth who are the pawns in this game. Colleges can put a stop to these practices of recruiting and subsidizing athletes if they wish.
