War, sport and human nature in wartime morale
The author argues abolishing spectator sports to fund war bonds would harm national morale. He cites human nature as a barrier to total concentration on war and reflects on football and other sports as essential relaxation. General Neyland is quoted noting upper limits around 70 percent for collective effort. He notes periods at West Point show 16 hours of study or effort, yet officers and cadets still need rest and sport for efficiency.
