A year ago the same number of home games for the same teams brought a turnout of 3,028,955. n While these figures are subject to decided change, it must be taken for granted that they indicate a trend. Football, has proved more exciting than ever this year. Upsets are more numerous. Nevertheless, attendance slumps are the rule rather than the exception. The sharpest drop was reported by Cornell, where attendance was slashed from 49,070 for last years first three games to 19,587 this year, Cornell places much of the blame on inaccessibility, the rest on poor performance.

Major Problem While the importance of paying customers cannot be overemphasized, colleges are faced with a still bigger problem the future of football. Its none too rosy. In fact, you may be looking at your last college games for some time. James B. Conant, president of Harvard, recently told the incoming freshman class they had but a relatively few months of college life ahead of them. Dr. Conant I say few months, said, for I believe the draft age soon will be lowered and I feel sure none of you wish to be left behind in college as your contemporaries march off to war: Subsequent draft legislation regarding 18 and proved the truth of the educators remarks. His statements left little doubt about the future of football at Harvard if the war continues.

Freshmen and sophomores are seeing more action all the time. Most of the conferences allowing freshmen to play are doing so for the first time. The many startling upsets of the present season are due in part to the more widespread use of youngsters. They are, not as consistent as the juniors and seniors, and are more likely to turn in an excellent performance one game, a ragged showing the next. In almost every college, football practically supports the entire athletic program. The present lack of cash customers is likely to result in a curtailment of minor sports especially those which are consistent drains on the athletic department treasury. Some schools have attempted to overcome the transportation problem by shifting their games to centers where the transportation problem is less of a hazard. But a large proportion of schools find this solution geographically impractical. When a Washington sports writer asked Stephen Early, secretary to the President, what the chances were for the continuanee of sports, I frankly dont know be said:, whether sports will be able to continue or not but I certainly hope , they do.

Transportation problems have plagued more than one college. Schedule changes have caused quite a few disappointments and decreased attendance figures are responsible for considerable grief. The latter problem looms exceedingly large at the moment. Not that the others arent important, but gate receipts or lack of them cause no more concern to the average college than would an onslaught of the black plague.
