To the Editors of the CRIMSON:
My interpretation of what President Roosevelt has said about intercollegiate athletics and courage differs from Professor Francke's. The President contends, as I understand him, that intercollegiate athletics promote college athletics in general, and that college athletics in general promote manly qualities--among them courage. The "weakness" which he sees in abolishing football is the weakness of a confessed inability to make the game clean. L. B. R. BRIGGS.
