The necessary reorientation of collegiate athletics has manifested itself in several ways. President Lowell's annual report to the Overseers commended Mr. Bingham's tactics as a courageous move towards that end and reiterated that athletics for all is Harvard's sport policy.

President W. H. P. Faunce of Brown University has just made his annual report to the Brown Corporation and has announced Brown's purpose of embracing a similar sport policy. Games for all and the extension of curriculum ideals to athletics are the keynotes of the report. All Brown men, alumni and undergraduates alike, want a more substantial foundation for outdoor sports, the sports which help to educate, and only those. They believe that all education whether in the classroom or on the athletic field should be dominated by "one great ideal, subjected to the same control, held to the same financial publicity and guided by the same theory of the sound mind in the sound body."

To accomplish this end they have reorganized their athletic system, and the result is a system of greater complexity than Harvard's. Instead of a single director of athletics with power over all athletic activity, able to engage coaches, and empowered to discharge all the other functions. Brown will have a new athletic council of eleven endowed with powers similar to Mr. Bingham's and also charged to render to the corporation a complete report as the other departments do.

Whether or not the power will prove unwieldy in the hands of eleven which a single rane and well-balanced man can assume satisfactorily is beside the point. The plan is significant for the fact that the attempt on the part of the CRIMSON and of Harvard to place less emphasis on athletics for the few and more on athletics for the many is spreading to other universities, and is being accepted and sponsored by enlightened presidents and college corporations.
