Another writer states that some of the schools in the League are unable to raise money for athletics, and so must depend upon the Association to help them out financially. There is no objection to this either, so long as the money drawn from the Association is used strictly for the purpose of promoting that branch of athletics by which the money was earned. It is only natural that, in a League whose membership is scattered over so broad an area, some schools should incur greater expenses than others. For this very reason, if for no other, there should never be an equal division of profits. Those schools that have heavy expenses should put in their bills to the Association's treasurer, and receive payment for their necessary expenditures. Thus one school will need $125, perhaps, while another will find it necessary to spend but $50. The latter should therefore only receive from the central treasury just that amount, and not a cent more, "to be devoted to athletics." The root of the evil is the _pro rata_ division. Aside from any ethical question, this promotes extravagance, and leads to a loose financial system. Money earned by athletics should be handled most judiciously, or it will prove a very insidious and complicating element in the economy of sport.
