...presence of a professional in this sense, however, on the college grounds, if a man of good character might be productive of less harm than intercourse with technical amateurs of lower character. But this did not affect the faculty's position. Their objection was to the introduction of professional methods and spirit into college sports. The two should be totally divorced.

Two warnings-instead of three now disqualify a player, and while accidental violation will not seriously affect a player, nevertheless a more effective embargo has been put on the foul play we have so often witnessed.
