Additional Report by Lorin F. Deland.

While agreeing with the above recommendations as far as they go, I do not think they go far enough to remedy the present demoralization in football. I feel that the game has lost its just proportions by the introduction of mercantile standards, and as a corrective, I advocate the abolition of gate-receipts. I do not see why a match game between students of competing colleges should not be played before invites guests, as in the Army-Navy contest. When a single game between Harvard and Yale brings in gate-receipts of $80,000, I think that commercialism has found good soil for propagating serious evils.  Respectfully submitted,  LORIN F. DELAND.

Your attention is called to the fact that Mr. W. Cameron Forbes has been unable to attend any meeting of the Committee.
