Holcomb Urges 'De-Commercialization'
at Annual Banquet Honoring Gridders
Forty varsity letter winners and forty freshman numeral winners, as well as four managers, were introduced to 150 persons by
Mr. Kenneth "Bill" Kelly, head Central football coach, at the 29th
annual Football Banquet in Keeler Ballroom last Wednesday evening '
Toastmaster Dr. Wilbur E.
Moore, head of the speech department, introduced Mr. Stuart Holcomb, guest speaker for the event.
Mr. "Stu" Holcomb is the well-
known head football coach at
Purdue University.
Holcomb stressed the importance of the present action to
de-commercialize football. He
said that de-commercialization,
rather than de-emphasis, was
ihe goal of the recent NCAA
meetings. It is called "de-emphasis" to keep from hurting
the feeling of the many subsid-
izers, he said.
Holcomb explained the athletic
aid system used at Purdue University at the present time and
compared it with those of the
competition which the Purdue
team meets. If an even amount of
distribution were achieved, he
feels that the present problem
would solve itself.
Dr. Judson Foust, assistant to
the president, spoke in the absence of President Charles L.
Anspach. Dr. Foust congratulated
the gridders on their performances during the 1951 season.
Pete   Krohn,  president   of
Men's   Union,   welcomed   the
guests in ihe opening address.
Mr. Kelly reviewed the season's
record established by the Chips
during the 1952 campaign. Central won five games while dropping three. In the IIAC standings
Central finished third with a four
and two record.
