Sauer Note
The football prospects of the University have been given a jolt by Coach Sauer's departure from Annapolis. By this time the predicament has undergone a great deal of analysis and discussion. The consensus seems to be that all is not lost. Kansas still has many fine players returning for another season, a reputation to uphold, and the opportunity to pick a new coach from any number of good men who would be eager for the job. Coach Sauer was relatively unknown when he came to the University.
The situation seems to spotlight one aspect of college athletics which has always caused most officials to look the other way. This is a day of huge gate receipts and profitable post-season games. College football has become big business. Professional players and coaches are forced to use businessmen's tactics. If they see a better opportunity, they take it, although their departure may not always be made under the most convenient circumstances.
This'll Make Faculty Members Very Happy
Cineinmati — (UP) — Arthur L.
Thexton has resigned a $80,000-a-year job to do what he always wanted to do—teach.
The 48-year-old Cincinnatiian quit as executive vice president of Clopay Corp. to study for a master's degree in political science at Columbia university. When he gets the degree, he hopes to find a teaching job between $5,000 and $6,000 a year.
"We've got enough money to see us through," he said. "That is, as long as my wife doesn't demand cr mine."
May Coach Sauer have good luck in his new coaching berth. May Kansas' new coach, whoever he is, slip easily into his new job as a member of a winning football team—the coach and the men who play the game.
