else, and will require no hint to give up his work.
Even now, it will be impossible for him to continue his work, and carry out the high purpose with which he came, unless fully assured of the sympathy and support of the undergraduate body. That body should ascertain all the facts, whatever they are, and should then see that justice is done; and no student body ever yet failed to see justice done when aroused to action. In a case like this there is no fairer tribunal, and if it finds Professor Cowan wanting, it will indeed be well for him to think of folding his tent.
Before reaching a decision, it may be well to consider one final question. What is foot-ball
to mean in the University of Kansas? Is it to stand for Christian manliness, courage, endurance, self-control, strength moral as well as physical? Then these are the things for which the name of Rev. Hector W. Cowan stands throughout on the country, except possibly in our own little corner of it. Does it on the contrary stand for brutality. for trickery; for paid players, for profanity, for betting before games and for drinking after them? There is no lack of evidence available that to some it means all and precisely this. If this is to be its meaning, then by all means Professor Cowan must go ; but let us devoutly pray that foot-ball may soon follow him.
