of school authorities and not local

donate to athletic causes they will
want to control the atheltics and
say how their money is to be spent.
Many of the colleges and universi
ties are over-emphasizing athlet
ics as the public well knows as a
spectator sport. Look at the Army
scandal recently where 90 cadets
were expelled for cheating at the
Military Academy, a group of foot
ball players because so much time
was required on the playing field
they were unable to give the proper
time to their college courses. And
there are reports of low morals of
big-time college athletics exposed
in the fixing of basketball games.
These are signs of what happens
Tuesday by city police in Whitmire,
the sheriff said, in cooperation with
officers of this county.
Rasor was treated in a local hos
pital and released Tuesday.
