Benefits Of Intercollegiate Football

'Clock Sonata'

Purdue IIolds Double-Ileuder
Rally For Ohio State Game

By CHESTER BRADLEY
Across the country's campuses the
controversy aboutintercollegiate
football continues unabated. In a
few colleges competitive football has
already been abolished, and in many
another accusations of commercial-
ization and open subsidization are
still frequently heard. Defenders of
the game declare that such charges
are unfounded, and that intercol-
legiate football is still an essential
part of the American university
scene.
From the offices of The Daily Ma-
roon at therUniversity of Chicago
comes a letter from Bob Lawvson, as-
sistant sports editor, who describes
student reactions to the abandon-
ment of intercollegiate football there.
He writes:
"It is rather difficult to give a
clear picture of student reaction at
Chicago in regard to the football
situation. When the announcement,
was first made, the undergraduates
were generally represented in the na-
tion's papers as bitterly opposed. This
was really a minority; most of the,
students realized that some steps had
to be taken, but few really expectedj
such an extreme one. The University
is accustomed to the idea now, and
mostbelieve that such a step was de-
sirable.
"Replacing intercollegiate football
here is six-man football played in
conjunction with the regular intra-
mural program. Practice began last
week, and the game is growing stead-
ily in popularity as shown by the in-
creasing number of candidates. Most
of the boys don't like the game as
well as the regular one, but they ad-
mit that they like it far better than
they had expected to.
"The gist of the arguments in favor
of the dropping of intercollegiate
football here is that Chicago does
not have a large enough body of male
undergraduates eligible to play
(there were only about 750 eligible
last year); there was a decided lack
of interest in the game among the
student body; the performance of

At Northwestern, building was the
keynote. The University announced
that construction was to be started on
a $115,000 music hall, dedicated to
former Dean Lutkin of the School
of Music. Tentative plans were also
in the offing for two new men's
dorms. Meanwhile Northwestern's
neighbor, Chicago, was celebrating
its fiftieth anniversary.

For the terrorists who serve either the Japanese
or their Chinese puppet, Wang Ching-wei, have
bombed the Post plant five times, slaughtered
guards, wounded pressmen, and last month mur-
dered Samuel H. Chang, director of the Post and
its Chinese edition, the Ta Mei Wan Pao.
Cornelius V. Starr, owner, and Randall Gould,
editor, have been ordered out of the country by the
puppet regime. Neither paid any attention. Gould
is still at his post; Starr stayed four months, came
home when he got ready, plans to return soon.
And they are not alone: four other Americans
and one Briton similarly threatened have dug in
their toes, strapped on guns, and called the \Jap
bluff.
Why are the invaders of China trying to drive
U. S. newsmen out of the country?
Because these resolute Americans, controlling vi-
tal news outlets from the unique and unmanageable
city-state of Shanghai, stand square in the road
of Japanese conquest. For Japan must control the
mind and morale of its subject peoples, must direct
world-thinking the Japanese way, if it is ever
to realize the dream of a "Greater East Asia"-
domination of China, India, the Indo-Chinese pe-

pathy for the underdog. But now our interest in
China goes much further than this. Now the top
dog is snarling at us, and every intelligent news-
reader knows what a tight spot we shall be in if the
underdog relaxes his grip.
Most Americans are glad to find that our inter-
ests coincide with those of the Chinese people. We
have grown to like them, their peadeful and philo-
sophic way of looking at life, their tenacity and
courage in misfortune, the beautiful things they
make, and the humorous things they say.
Perhaps we don't realize that the Chinese, in their
turn, have grown to like us. They are grateful for
the medical knowledge that has routed some of
their worst diseases, for the industrial technics that
have helped them put up such a good fight. Many of
them are grateful for the Christian religion. They
remember how we backed up their dream of build-
ing a new, strong China. And they are glad to get
the things we have to sell. Contrary to popular
opinion, they like the Standard Oil Co. which
brings them the blessings of kerosene ... and they
find a thousand uses for the cans it comes in.
Brilliant Chinese leaders by the score owe their
education to American universities. A chief official
of the Chinese information ministry, Hollington K.
Tong, is a graduate of the journalism schools of the
Universities of Missouri and Columbia. Our schools
of journalism have had more effect, proportion-
ately, on Chinese newspapers than on our own.
The old notion that "You can't understand the

Oriental mind" is being dispelled by able writers
and journalists of both races. Lin Yutang and Mme.
Chiang Kai-shek show us China from the inside-
John Gunther and Carl Crow from the outside. J. B.
Powell continues to give us his important journal
of opinion, the China Weekly Review, though he
is on Wang's blacklist and has to have a bodyguard.
And just as important as the books and maga-
zines are the day-by-day cables...from men like
A. T. Steele of the Chicago Daily News, the N. Y.
Times' Hallet Abend, and Tillman Durdin, and
TIME's own T. H. White, who came via Harvard and
the Chinese information ministry, and is now on the
hot spot in Indo-China.
Sometimes readers ask why TIME devotes so much
space to the Orient. It is because TIME has always
believed that the day would come when an under-
standing of that area with its billion people, half
the population of the earth, might be of the utmost
importance to America.
How the good will of these people can be chan-
nelled and become a force in world strategy is a
profound challenge. But on such intangibles world
history has turned and tyrannies have fallen.
This is why TIME, and its sister publications,
FORTUNE and LIFE, have gathered and used such a
storehouse of information on China, Japan,and the
Philippines ... and why TIME's week-by-week anal-
yses of the Far Eastern situation seem to more
thoughtful news-readers essential equipment for
the decisions we face across the Pacific.
