By Scruggs Hope
There has been quite a bit of discussing t
as to the so called Graham Plan which I
has just passed the Southern Conference
Rules Committee but this story is not s
meant to be a discussion on this plan. E
Instead of trying to place the side that f
the average footplayer sees and ex- r
periences.
The player is expected to practice at
least three hours a (lay for five (lays
a week and then on the day of the game,
if he is fortunate enough to be playing
at honte, he has to spend at least two
hours before the game in preparation
to play. In addition to this he has to 1
meet so called skull practices, where he s
is taught signals, the offense and the de- F
fense, then when this is over he is or
<lered to bed so that he will be in good
physical condition. This he goes through a
day after day, week after week, until t
football season is through. If he is tak
en on trips he has to leave school on c
Friday and if the trip is across the con- r
tinent possibly sooner, so that when he '
gets back it takes at least a day to get c
over riding on the train or bus and get
the kinks and sore muscles straightened i
out enough to hobble around. During s
all of this he is supposed to be carrying i
the same amount of work that his fellow a
stu<lent, who sits in the grand stand and t
yells do or die for dear old alma mammy, a
is taking-this student that is not out
for football has the time to study while I
the player is out playing for his school. a
Now you say that this only lasts from I
September until the first of December, v
an<l that this player can make up his f
work during the rest of the year but t
is this true ?-No. Ile is then expected i
as soon as lie finishes exams to report o
for spring practice, which lasts from s
six to eight weeks, whichever the coach s
wants. Let's look at this boy's activities v
during IlIigh School-You find that it is s
quite similar to that of his college days, I
and as a general rule he is allowed to t
pass so that he will be eligible for the s

text season and in four years he goes tl
ourse that we all go-graduation at
o college.
This boy that plays football has on
our years in which he can play. Aft
hat he is on his own-What next?
ob of some kind. He isn't eligible
each athletics, as he would have
ave a diploma before getting a job
ny school. Here is a man that h;
pent eight years in a laboratory-a foo
all field, basket ball court, and the bas
,all diamond are few--and yet he. c.
iot qualify. During his college days I
vas forced to take what are called ele
ive courses, such as music appreciatio
ramatics, hygiene, public speaking, Bibl
nd other courses that he can mast,
vith very little difficulty. When he fil
;hes his four years' stay at the colleg
e leaves with his rating possibly a litt
igher, but not with a degree. I am n
aying that all football players do in
et degrees, but I do say that tho
'ho do are in the minority.
The question now is how to remec
IlI of this. Why not open a field
hese men and allow them to take ti
oaching staff on hand these cours
ourses that they are interested in? TI
iajority are interested in physical d
elopment, and with the Coaching sta
i hand these courses could very easi
e taught. At the end of the four yeat
f they have met the requirements, b
tow upon them the degree of B.
n Physical Development. This is i
new plan. Harvard has been givit
his course for many years, even givit
Master's Degree and a Ph.D.
The important thing is to give the
oys something for what they have don
nd not allow them to have to suff,
or those things that they could not he
ohile in college. These 'boys had to ph
oothall in order to make their w.
hrough school, and although I am ni
i favor of their making a living o
f it for that period that they are
chool, I think that in all fairness th<
hould be eligible for scholarships th
'ill enable them to pay their way throul
chool. Let's remember that though th<
ave to play a rough and tumble gan
hey are still humans, and that thi
bould have the same rights as tho,
