Wednesday, Oct. 21, 1953 University Daily Kansan

That sums up our opinion of the latest ruling concerning transfer of student identification cards for home football games. The new order, issued yesterday, states that only high school students may attend KU grid games with tickets exchanged for Student ID cards, and then only if a small fee of $1 is forked over to the athletic department.
Kansas Sports Writer Red tape and ridiculous rules!
Last year we thought the 50-cent exchange price (which let any person of college age or under into games) was a bit stupid, but now we students are proud to rule college students from other schools, only high schoolers.
In the first place, it is our contention that if we, as students of the school represented on the field, pay an activity fee for the IDs, it doesn't make any difference who occupies the space in the stadium guaranteed us.
Secondly, we see absolutely no rhyme or reason why it is necessary to go to all the extra effort to exchange the ID for a special ticket. Why, when each ID is punched at the stadium gate, couldn't it be possible for us to give our card to someone else? And how would we merely presenting it to be punched (the same as we would do) at the turnstiles?
It seems that if we pay our activity fee and are given an ID card, we should have the right to either go and occupy our seat or let another college age person use our admission ticket and sit in for us. Why is it necessary to go to the bother of printing up exchange ducats, enlisting persons to distribute them, and cause the extra book work necessary to keep the collected funds straight?
If one purchases four reserved tickets for a game and then gives them to someone else because he cannot attend, no eyebrows are raised. Why then can't the D's be helped then to the D's have paid for them just the same as persons who sit on the west side of the stadium have paid for theirs.
What difference does it make who uses a certain ticket—reserved or ID? We paid for them, so why can't we control their use?

OklahomaAggies On Way to Title
Top shutout artist in the major leagues last season was Washington's Bob Porterfield with nine in 255 innings pitched. National league white-wash leader was St. Louis Cardinal Harvey Haddix.
The Oklahoma Aggies, who haven't won a Valley football crown since 1948, appeared well on their way to the 1953 title today, thanks to a 93-yard touchdown run by Dorsey Gibson.
That long sprint to a marker came in the final minutes of the A&M clash with Houston Saturday and broke a 7-7 tie, enabling the Aggies to post a 14-7 decision. It left the Aggies with a 2-0 mark in conference play—the only unbeaten squad in the circuit.
Still blocking the Aggie path are Detroit, next Saturday, and Tulsa's Golden Hurricane, on Oct. 31. But neither figure to upset the title-bound crew coached by E. B. Whitworth.
Detroit, however, showed to its best advantage last week-end, trimming Villanova 27-0. At the same time, Tula scored in the final period to edge out Hardin-Simmons, 14 to 13, and Wichita blanked Drake's Bulldogs. 27-0.
This week, in addition to the Detroit-Oklahoma A&M feature, the schedule sends Tempe State against Houston at Houston and Wichita against the surprising Kansas State Wildcats of the Big Seven conference.
Are we stretching things a bit? Maybe — but when you find out how mild and sweet and refreshing the Medico pipe can be, you'll go for Medico, tool. It's the replaceable filter in Medico that makes the big difference. That little filter traps dangerous nicotine and tars, disagreeable juices and flakes.
That's why countless smokers, beginners and old timers alike, who never enjoyed the pleasures of a pipe. now enjoy the clean mild fragrance of Medico - the pioneer in filtered smoking.
Try a Medico Pipe. See why Medico's filter has sold over a billion to date!

Big 7 Coaches Eye Taylors
Big Seven coaches, already watching K-State halfback Corky Taylor, now are casting worried eyes at the Interscholastic league in Kansas City, Mo., and Corky's little brother, Roger Taylor.
Like big brother Corky, Roger leads his league in scoring with 48 points in three games, and rushing with 508 yards on 34 carries. The K-STater leads the Big Seven with 37 points, and is ahead in rushing with 379 yards in 34 tries.
The younger Taylor is after Corky's Interscholastic league rushing record of 1,209 yards, an average of 173 per game. In 1949, his junior year, Corky set a loop record of 90 points.
