named to the all-important post
of national secretary of the group.
Murry Murdoch of Yale was
elected president, and Julius
Schroeder of the University of
California was chosen vice-
president.
These are the most important
results of the three-day meeting
held a week ago in New York by
hockey coaches from schools all
over the nation. Heyliger has
been the chief proponent of the
idea from the beginning.
A further item decided upon,
which will increase the student
appeal of the game, was the pro-
posal to have all members of the
NCAA hockey group schedule
games only with college teams.
Already Heyliger has an-
nounced that a three-game ser-
ies with Yale will be added to
our 1947-48 schedule, on a home-
and-home basis, and it is ex-
pected that Princeton and other
Eastern schools will also be in-
cluded.
The coaches decided to hold one
meeting a year at a centrally 10-
cated city to discuss pertinent
business. In addition, a Governing
Board of'yfive men was selected to
administer a National Collegiate
Tournament to determine the na-
tional hockey champion
The first tourney will be held
in 1948 and will call for a play-
off between schools representing

the Ivy, New England, Mid-
West, and Far-West regions.
Four schools comprise the Mid-
West area - Michigan, Michi-
gan Tech, Minnesota, and Col-
orado.
The winner of the play-ofI ser-
ies will be the American collegiate
hockey champion. The committee
is trying to arrange for a series
with the Canadian National
Champions to establish a champ
for North America.
With the emphasis on collegiate,
opponents only, many Eastern
teams are planning Western trips'
similar to the one the Wolverines
made last Christmas. California
is also planning an extended Eas-
tern journey to display their Far-
West brand of hockey.
The meeting also standard-
ized the rules of the game
throughout the United States,
agreeing to drop the puck when
starting play. However, Cana-
dian rules are still somewhat
different; the coaches have de-
cided to use the rules of the
country in which the game is
being played.
One final item was clinched,
when it was ruled that all officials
for inter-collegiate games must
be sanctioned by the NCAA. This
will improve rules interpretation
and promote better officiating, the
coaches believe.

SPORT SCRAPBOOK
By JACK MARTIN, Daily Sports Editor
PRESIDENT Alexander G. Ruthven is to be praised in the highest
for the speech he presented last Saturday night before the Na-
tional Conference of Health in Colleges at New York City.
If you didn't read the story in Sunday's Michigan Daily, here in
a nut-shell is what he said. He deplored the fact that students were
leaving school "as ignorant of their biological characteristics as when
they entered." And he continued that American colleges should in-
clude in their classroom studies "the art of keeping well."
In addition to hailing President Ruthven's stand, it is wise
at this point to mention a most important fact. The very thing
which the President declares to be one of the prime tasks of the
college curriculum is also one of the main points of the Michigan
Athletic Department's proposed physical education program, is,
in fact, its driving motive.
It cannot be repeated often enough that the purpose of this pro-
gram is NOT calisthenics and regimented drill, but intelligent physical
education through hygiene classes, through classes in recreational
and competitive sports,
PRESIDENT Ruthven's thesis is actually the same thing as one of
the main principles which the athletic committee deemed basic
to its plan. The committee said in Point Three of the principles
(which are on page 19 of its printed report): "(The program's) pri-
mary contribution . . . lies in promoting the functional competency
of the body, (and) its contribution to mental vigor and right social
attitudes can be of great significance."
President Ruthven said in his Saturday speech, "Most student
health programs are concerned mainly with medical care, provid-
ing the pound of cure but not even a full ounce of prevention
... Health subjects should be worked into College curricula EVEN
AT THE EXPENSE OF LESS IMPORANT OFFERINGS."
What better group of men exists in the University for the pur-
pose of organizing such a health program than the Physical Educa-
tion Department? They have spent their college careers studying just
such problems. They KNOW what such a program should contain.
