Certainly in our American system there is no activity in which a man I am, of course, deeply honored to receive this award.

The injection of for doing things that you liked to do when you were young?” And for these external social issues into this particular scene in recent years is in that matter, doing things that I have enjoyed doing ever since my days my judgment a disservice to all the people who are interested in inter- of competitive athletics. collegiate sports in this country. Throughout my professional life, which I have been privileged to spend The financial questions involved are of great concern. at three different universities, I have indulged my deep lifetime interest There are some good things on the other side of the ledger.

This has been a privilege and an honor for me, things I would say as an educator is there is a new trend and renewed because all of you know the important part that athletics and games, interest in the whole field of physical education and in the training of the men properly conducted, play in our society. They are an important element of who will be the coaches in our schools throughout the nation. our country.

Intellectual snobbishness denies the intellect itself. 700 of our collegiate institutions, has a more important task in legislating But 1 am glad to report there is a new and renewed interest in the value the policies and regulations that govern this part of our society than ever of the part to be played on the football field and in all athletics in the before. I hope that you will preserve and protect this great part of our physical education of our nation. life to the best of your ability. 1 would like to say to President (Malcolm) Moos, my longtime friend Vision and Support in Planning and president of my alma mater, the University of Minnesota, that I greatly Wouldn’t it be wonderful if in the planning of our primary and second- appreciate his coming.

The strain is always on the character and never on the intellect, for our knowledge is great about man and nature and society and all the things we need to know, but our ability to manage our affairs puts a strain on the character. And where is this more true than in the field of the management of intercollegiate athletics?
