Policy and Principles: The Clinton Administration\u27s Approach

In last night\u27s State of the Union message, President Clinton challenged the United States to sustain our role as the leader in the fight for freedom and peace. Three years of American leadership by President Clinton have already produced great benefits for the American people and for the world community. Through determination and the exercise of American leadership, we have repeatedly turned challenges into real gains for Americans. In the Office of Policy Planning, we often are torn between helping to coordinate day-to-day policy and longer-term planning. In our fast-forward world, long-term sometimes means next Monday, and history is what happened last Friday. That said, as the director of the office responsible for helping frame policy in a larger context, I would like to take a step back tonight, and talk about the broader principles and strategies that lie behind the President\u27s remarkable foreign policy accomplishments

The following areas were investigated: elements pertaining to individual coaches, patterns of organizing practice sessions, attitudes towards practice sessions, and off-season activities of coaches. 1he data obtained were placed into groupings of coaching records, more or less successful. Also, the data were placed into-three stratums of high school populations and years of coaching experience. The statistical procedure Chi-Square was used in the statistical analysis. The .01 level was accepted and the .05 level was reported. The indications were as follows: more successful coaches held shorter practice sessions during the mid-season; more successful coaches had less scrimmage on Wednesdays in mid-season. Differences indicated by coaches in high school stratums and experience were as follows: older and more experienced coaches held positions in larger schools; younger and less experienced coaches had fewer advanced degrees; coaches with more experience had won more games under 54 per cent; coaches in larger schools preferred large squads; small schools had fewer squad members; coaches in larger schools utilized teaching stations more; coaches in smaller schools planned more for coaching offensive fundamentals in late season; coaches in smaller schools emphasized kicking more in mid-season; coaches in larger schools planned little scrimmage on Tuesdays during the preseason; coaches planned short scrimmage sessions on Thursdays during the late season; coaches in small schools during the seasons of 1965-\u2767 did not have the same opportunity to use films as coaches in large schools; coaches differed in the evaluation of execution
