PAGE SIX UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN, LAWRENCE, KANSAS MONDAY, OCTOBER 17, 1949 The Editorial Page- "Uh—oh— here they come out on the field now—I guess we've got about the most offensive team in the country." Rough Stuff One of the hardest things to do in football is to remember that it is play. On a college level, it is rarely play any more. It is big business and in some instances it is mayhem. Sports pages are sprinkled with stories about shattered teeth, broken legs and dislocated vertebrae. Trainers who can heal strained tendons are as essential now as experts on the forward pass. Additional padding and protective garments have not reduced the injury lists. The team which uses elbows, fists, and roll-tackling as a deliberate policy of play can always inflict damage upon the other team. Planned rough stuff in football should not be tolerated. Gang-up tactics after the referee's whistle has blown, or any other attempts on the part of teams to cripple the opponents' best players should not be permitted either by coaches or referees. Those who stand for this sort of thing are as bad as the players who indulge in illegal practices. Football fans know that this rough stuff has always persisted to a certain extent, but there has always been a simple remedy. Men like Dana X. Bible, Alonzo Stagg, and Zuppke had the solution. When any one on their teams played "illegally" he was immediately taken out of the game and sent to the showers. He remembered it. Chances are, he remembered it later in life and was a better man for the penalty. Referees could stop this rough play if they would call heavy penalties against all violators of the rules. A coach or a referee who permits this gridiron rough stuff to continue has no business in a sport which, more than any other, demands high-level sportsmanship to prevent permanent injury. —Frankie Waits - Letters To The Editor - All's Well Dear editor: Reading in the Oct. 10 issue of the Kansan, one finds this on the front page: "More than 40 students have written to Professor Hall asking when the Ellis library would be available for study". On the next page, the headlines proclaim: "Mortar Board is Goal for the Most Outstanding University Women". On page seven is: "The members of both Alpha Kappa Lambda and Phi Kappa Sigma are proud of the amount and quality of work they have put into their traditionally old Lawrence houses". On page eight is the headline, "No housing problems confront these students". Above the last headline: "Freedom capsule may hold Kansan". Reading the editorial page, I wondered if it belonged to this publication. The editorial captioned "2250 A.D." didn't seem to fit. How can students who are interested in wild life and women (who are willing to give time to organizations like Mortar Board) be in college simply for "mate seeking"? The editorial implied this. How can men who work hard on fraternity buildings, and who never cease to admire, "the amount and quality of work" done by their fellow men, be interested in women and "sweaters" more than working toward a college degree? How can students, capable of erecting major buildings, be more interested in women than in economics? This was all implied in the editorial "2250 A.D.". Fraternity Pledges 20 Phi Alpha Delta, honorary law fraternity, has announced 14 new members and 20 pledges. If this paper were sealed in the Freedom capsule and allowed to remain for 300 years, don't you think this article would be somewhat misleading?

Wagner, law freshmen; and Basil C. Marhofer, College senior. and politics can protect civilization, as it is now, for 300 more years, I don't believe the people who look back "on the higher learning' of the bygone era" will be very much ashamed of their ancestors.

Students Meet New Faculty Members At Business School Coffee Forum Donald Hyten, B.S.A. president, told the group that Whiting Williams, author, lecturer, and labor consultant from Cleveland, would be in Lawrence next week to speak to them. Hyten said that the association was writing to other speakers who would visit the University and discuss various phases of industry, management, and labor. Business school students and their professors met socially instead of scholastically at a coffee forum given by the Business School association in the Palm room of the Union Thursday night. Leonard B. Axe, dean of the business school, described the forum as "the best business school function in 20 years." James Blocker, business senior, introduced the following eight new business school instructors and professors: Jack Heysinger, instructor of business law; H. K.
