THE
gREELY
VALUE
OF
A N N U A L
ATHLETICS
The prominence given t o athletics i n every institution of learning
is a m a t t e r a p p r e c i a t e d b}^ e v e r y b o d y . A t t h e s a m e t i m e t h e a v e r a g e
y o u n g person gives little t h o u g h t t o t h e m a n y benefits derived theref r o m . T h eh i s t o r y of athletics need h a r d l y t o be related as i t dates back
to o u r earliest civilization. E v e r y o n e h a s heard of t h e ancient Greek
and R o m a n festivities a n d contests i n w h i c h every y o u t h participated
—occasions w h e n physical perfection a n d nobility of character were
linked together almost synonymously.
T h e physical benefits o f athletics a r e obvious. N e v e r is a h i g h
school athlete i n a stronger, saner, o r m o r e healthful condition than
d u r i n g t h e t r a i n i n g season. E v e r y muscle is g i v e n i t s proper exercise
and t h e\vhole b o d y kept i n g o o d w o r k i n g order.
A s i n t h e early days, so t o o i n t h e t w e n t i e t h century, physical
training a n d character building should g o hand i n hand. Clean, fair
sportsmanship develops some of t h e noblest qualities. Athletics promote "team spirit" a n d loyalty. Grit a n d nerve are t w o qualities i n culcated a t t h e outset. T h e n naturally follow quickness of decision
a n d correct t h i n k i n g . M a n y a t i m e t h e a t h l e t e is p u t t o wffiat h e calls
a supreme test, w h e n t h e outcome of t h e contest v e r i t a b l y seems t o
rest upon h i s shoulders. Consider h o w m a n y times that same athlete
m a y later find himself i n a similar predicament i n his business o r
profession. M o r e o v e r , a h i g h school athlete is t a u g h t t o respond a l most instantly t o a n order shouted b y t h e coach.
B y f a rt h e m o s t i m p o r t a n t benefit of clean athletics is t h e preparation f o r citizenship. A perfect athlete should m a k e a perfect citizen.

inscription on the grandstand at Whittier Field at Bowdoin
College, " F a i r play a n d m a y t h e best m a n ivin," is a g o o d m o t t o f o r

Often o n Sundays, o n holidays, or during vacation m a n y a trip or

even then your voice echoes t h r o u g h the r o o m and comes back to
mock you. Y o u m a k e motions w i t h arms like pokers, while the coach
alternately pleads, scolds and praises.
Finally the day before the ordeal dawns and the entire group
spends the m o r n i n g m a k i n g b o w s and m a r c h i n g . A n o t h e r bit of advice : b o w f r o m y o u r w a i s t and not y o u r A d a m s apple.
If y o u r principal ever took part in a contest, y o u will have the
a f t e r n o o n off. I a d v i s e e t h e r f o r t h a t a f t e r n o o n ; y o u w i l l

favor rat poison. H o w e v e r , y o u go home, m o t h e r puts y o u in your n e w

E v e n i n g falls. Y o n spend a period before the m i r r o r ; y o u r cowlick

A t last, y o u assemble i n the church basement w i t h nine other
agonized mortals. T h e r e y o u exchange y o u r feelings for others until
the whole group carries nine extra shivers. T h e music starts and y o u
h u r r y upstairs to the u n k n o w n . T h e slow m a r c h begins; y o u r feet are
like lead, y o u gain the appointed p e w a n d the speaking begins, of w h a t
3^ou n e i t h e r k n o w n o r c a r e .
T h e n like the voice of d o o m comes " J u n i o r Black." Y o u ascend
the p l a t f o r m w i t h f a l t e r i n g steps and knees like w a x ; y o u r u s h
h e a d l o n g i n t o the piece. Y o u notice y o u r parents, w h i t e w i t h a n x i e t y :

that was fun!
T h e judges depart, decide and reappear. T h e n f r o m the stillness
comes — "First prize," w h y , what's that; "Junior Black"!
Someone
grasps y o u r hand, another pats y o u r shoulder, and congratulations
roll i n f r o m a l l sides. Y o u r dad calls y o u a chip off t h e old block a n d
