(Phog) Allen charged today that college bowl-winning teams :were more professional than the Chicago Bears. “The Bears, at least, publish the salaries paid their players,’ the K. U. basketball coach said. “It’s all »|clandestine in the colleges but they’re getting paid one way or alother. “All you have to do is to listen to those boys talk. My informants many times have been men on the teams involved. They. talk freely about it but it’s still ‘news’ to the colleges, “When we get into the big time bowl stuff, it becomes highly pro- fessionalized because’ the teams are out fighting for those bids and for the men who can earn those b Declining to name schools for the record but mentioning them private- ly, he said one midwest school was paying its athletes throuh $150-a- month highway department jobs with $40 of that sent directly to the university to. pay educational ex- penses. “When you get into that, you find a close tie-up with political powers,” Allen pointed out, He said many different ways: were employed to pay college athletes, the old fraternity system in which the houses took in the stars; legislative scholarships, payment by . wealthy followers of the schools, payment. by | the Athletic association directly to the university, and state jobs, .to name a few. Allen cut loose first ah “profes- sionalized” bowl teams in a speech yesterday afternoon before the Kan- sas City Rotary club. ‘He is district governor of the Rotarians. : Allen told his brother Rotarians, among other things, that football and basketball teams of colleges and universities were actually being run by gamblers and predicted a football scandal worse than last year’s New York cage sports scandal.

Dear Dr. Allen: | fhe enclosed clipping from the Anaheim Bulletin here has prompted me to write you with my deepest congratulations for the stand and courage you have taken as mentioned in the clipping. It has been many years since I left my alma mater as the war stopped me last time and wrecked my plans and etc. bit 1 am still keeping my chin up but lots of the time I an not smiling but using my lungs to full capacity and sometimes my teeth show through. For now they have drafted my oldest boy just past eighteen for the war gamblers and several groups of other thugs. I'm madtat the whole set up of the damnable political thugs that we did not vote for and now telling people what they cannot or can do and we have a dozen of them that puts some so called Hitler in the shade. Just one illtstration from right here : We pay our so Called public servants in the whitehouse to stt on their fannies for fifty dollars a day and more and right here in this town I have to pay fifty dollars per day to sell at auction someone's belongings, or it is onethousnad dollars per year if I want to conduct a legitimate business of an auction house selling each week, Yes, this is deMOCKracy with no freedom of entreprise any more. All kinds of thugs such as politicians, preachers, salloon kSepers on every corner can pay eighteen dollars per year, ehain stores can rake in the money ete. Does this set up have anything in common 7? The d--- medical thugs can stick needlés into the bodies of our service men against their own will, against the guaranteed rights of the constitution and the laws of the Almighty or religious freedom if you want it that way. We are told that we have freedom from fear, freedom from want, freedom ef- (not from) religion. We have medical DICTATORSHIP im a FREE nati on. [ have very little respect for the ordinary physician or medical man- and none whatever for the needle pushers that are wrecking our prime manhood of America against their will. We ought to have at least as much freedom ag they have in England and Canada where they can say yes of no about these damnable innoculations and insane treatments, but cannot do so in U. S. I know what I ma saying and talking about and have the snartest men I have ever met to verify this. I wonder if.they can get my younger boy growing up now - I gue ss not if we can move to Switzerland or Mexico where they don't have war every generation or less and constantly keep everyone fpom ge tting hold of the truth.

While I was in school I thought I was getting an 6éducation, working my way through and coming oub of the war about ($'700.) seven hundred dollars in debt, but I find I was mistaken. The last few years I have learned more by several times over than I had learned all my life up to then. This mostly by searching for the truth and I am still searching, keeping myself and family well without any medical thugs, drugs or supporting the chemical trust, serum amnufacturers, or John Batleycorn. ly Mbther is gone, but not in vain and my Dad is Still here at near the eighty mark. I'm still a poor man, but 1 have something to do as an obligation to my fellowmen other than struggling my life out for an existence. It's pplitical thugs, gaubling thugs medical thugs, financial, thugs, military thugs and others on @very turn and I for, want to give you a hand as i will to any MAN that has the courage to stand his ground and speak right into their face as you have. vate Clark was foothall coach I attended a game that Missouri“béefore the Kansas game that year and wrote him and the team how they played, their weak spots and what had tobe done to beat Missouri and they came back with a victory and this made me feel good of course. But I know Kansas does not make a god of games like many of the other schoolsdo and over the radio out here they are not mentioned unless they have to- it's always the big shots smewhere else. Well, I would like to stroll on the campus again, and gaze in @very direction from Mit. oread over the valleys and hills and I have a fesling of respect for the old memories and also a feeling of deep disappointment of the place that our so called ciwilll zation has come too so don't feel that you must answer m@, but I say more power to you and If I can do Ss méething at the right time other than talk that will help Straighten this world mess out, before it is too late,I owe it to my fellowmen to do all I can.
