Book Description
Excerpt from Bates Student, 1907, Vol. 35 Again, lax or incompetent officials are often responsible for undue roughness. Officials, however, should not be blamed too severely for much of the present trouble. The spirit underlying all our sports must be improved. Games should be arranged in a clean-cut, manly way. Preliminary team play should be developed by living up to the letter and spirit of the rules. In the games themselves, the play should be to win yet with the elimination of all undue rough ness. Basketball at Bates has been placed upon probation. The opportunity has come to either save or kill our best indoor game. The game should be saved as its inherent qualities are those which will assist in developing the organism of the normal, virile boy into the best type of American manhood.
