THE COURIERJOURNAL, LOUISVILLE, SUNDAY MORNING, JANUARY 11, 1959 BOWLING SECTION 2 SPORTS U.K. Fans Never Had It So Good, Donovan So Rough mm. i laaMimjiaaun, Ul- tjl -J "1( 7 values are not forfeited. As an idealist ia education, he deplores the fact there aren't near as many rootersfor academic greatness in a university as there are for great teams. He tells, for instance, of a trip with Chancellor John D.

Williams of the University of Mississippi. "Every time we stopped at a gas station, restaurant, drugstore or hotel, the attendant who served us would inquire of Chancellor Williams about the kind of football Ole Miss would have that fall," writes Dr. Donovan. "This was practically the only subject discussed by citizens of Mississippi in their contact with the distinguished chancellor of the university." Thus it was, and after his early contact with State legislators found them asking; him more about athletics than academic problems, that Dr. Donovan says he decided on a solid athletic program for U.K.

"This policy seemed the best way to enlist the support of the majority of our citizens for our educational program. The policy has paid off." "After 28 years as a college president, it Is my considerate judgment that no other activity of a college or university is as difficult to administer as the athletics program' writes Dr. Donovan. The president constantly is bombarded by the sports fans for more and better athletics on the one hand, while at the same time he is under pressure from the intellectuals to deemphasizo the program. It takes courage to strike a happy medium." Ueneath his surface mildness, an inner strength gave him this courage.

Depending: on whether you are an enthusiast or critic of "big time" college athletics, the matter of U.K. having struck a happy medium in sports is open to argument. Few will deny, however, that Dr. Donovan had a courageous aggressiveness in his approach to collegiate athletics. lie is not a quitter in confronting the problems of college athletics, and he had many ranging from the cage scandals to the developing of football, lie clearly tees the worthwhile aspects of a strong program, not being one of those who fears good athletics is incompatible with good scholarship.

He also clearly sees the pitfalls of unbridled athletics. For Instance, he tayt of both phases of the athletic program, the farorable firsts "I believe that an athlete who excels in some sports should be considered for financial aid the same, as an excellent debater, a first-class musician, or a brilliant student in the academic subjects; but an athletic scholarship should not be awarded to a young man unles he has sufficient ability to do college work We are a state university, designed to serve all the people of the State One thing the citizen want, they say, is that the university should maintain a good athletics program "It is my observation that a good, clean, effective athletics program is one of the best approaches to public relations. It appears to be the one program of the univer sity that all people, high and low, can understand and appreciate." And on the other side of the ledger I "Unfortunately, more people have an interest in athletics than in education, and in their desins to have a winning team, they sometimes do things that disrupt an institution. There are the gamblers who will bribe coaches and players if they can. There are others who put so much pressure on both coaches and players they make life miserable.

"There are many alumni who demand that the coach produce winning teams every year or be This overemphasis jis unwholesome (yet) the general public demands an athletics program of high quality." Thus, as a realist, Dr. Donovan knows alumni and friends of a university will insist on an athletic program equal to the academic strength of a university, at least. He is not opposed to this if academic By LARRY BOECK Dr. Herman Lee Donovan is a man of, such slight physical proportions that he would have had trouble in his day male-ing the intramural basketball team. Yet few athletes at University of Kentucky ever have attacked the arduous challenges of sports with more fire, nor perhaps contributed more to the program.

L'ndcr his presidency, U.K. enjoyed its "Golden Era" of athletics. The basketball teams won three N.C.AA. championships. The football teams, developed wider his administration, triumphed in the Sugar and Cotton Howls and narrowly missed victory in, the Orange Bowl, Wildcats fans never had It so good.

t)r. Donovan never had it so rough. This in by his admission in tho recently published Keeping The University Free and Growing," a book he has written about his presidency of U.K. from M4M9.V5. The book was published by Tho University of Kentucky I'lCSS.

The Courier Sportsmun Fishing Is Helped By Lowering Level Of Water In Lake By BURT MONROE Despite winter weather which brings fishing to a standstill, research programs for better angling continues.

Now comes word that drawdowns," the periodic loweiing of water levels on the impoundments, may be a boon to fishermen rather than a bugaboo which injures fishing. For years, s'aies hauc been attacking the rough fish menace rhcmicallu, electrically, and mechanically in their efforts to find t-ays and mean of controlling those unwanted populations with a minimum of injury to game species. Studies indicate that one of the most effective mechanical ways of controlling rough fish, or even loo numerous panfinh, in a lake is to lower the level of the water. Years ago, the maintenance of stable water levels the year around was the chief aim of fish managers. Practically everyone believed thnt any time the water area was decreased, all fish, and naturally fishing, suffered.

Although the idea sounded logical, the truth of the matter was that no one really had tho facts. The Initial breakthrough which brought the possibilities of using normal "drawdowns" to the advantage of better anglin came as early as the 1910's through research on the big T.V.A. waters of the It was discovered then that the "drawdowns" had a controlling effect on the abundance of rough fish and on stunted panflsh with little or no serious Injury to the more desirable guinrfish. The biologists learned that by Increasing the water level slightly, carp can sometimes be induced to spawn in newly flooded root mats or shoreline grass. Then after peak spawning in early June, dropping the water level exposed the eggs to tho dry sun and wind and killed them.
