PAGE TWO FRIDAY, DECEMBER 4, 1928 UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN, LAWRENCE, KANSAS Comment Carnegie Re-investigates With the recent request made by the National Association of State Universities for a re-investigation by the Carnegie Foundation of the problem of subsidization of college athletes, an old and, to some, a mal-odorous question has been raised again. been raised again. Several years ago, in the first Carnegie report, it was revealed that the majority of American colleges and universities were subsidizing their athletes. Such goings-on were believed to be incredulous and wicked, and not at all in keeping with the aims and ideals of the higher institutions of learning. Since the expose, it is supposed that there has been a gradual inching toward honesty. However, this "honesty" does not seem to be satisfactory. As the customers have known, or strongly suspected for some years, football is ceasing to be an amateur sport and is surely becoming a business. There can be no basic distinction made among college football, for example, and national baseball, or professional boxing, except that the college students are asked to participate in a more punishing game. companies, and the profits of these interests have been acknowledged. The athletes' right to share in these profits should also be acknowledged. The football player works for the profit, not only of the college, but for the railroads, the gas and automobile companies, the hotels, roadhouses, restaurants, florists, telegraph companies, newspapers and ticket printers.

Referring to your column in the Wednesday Kansas: I like "to sway lustily at the tennis ball" as you so majely put it, but I happen to know that I need to play better. You can use my neck as you did. First, we happen to have a coach who is at least as good, if not better, than any coach in the Big Six. Then we get to ask the Athletic department doesn't mean he doesn't know his tennis. As to the other Big Six teams desiring a little bit of help with the Big Six title three times and finished second three times. I may have counted wrong, but I didn't. The Big Six teams got much more competition from there wouldn't be any use in holding a tournament to determine the top four players to ask how much they find out what you're writing about, instead of just writing." By one word, "just why don't you find out what you're Editor Daily Kansan: The article, "Warming One's Heart's Cookies, or Who Made Away With the Quorum?" is the best example of one-track humane, who have seen in some of our books the written word for two words that he thought were extremely good, and decided that those two words were worthy of a lengthy pseudo-humane simulation on something — indeed just what. Through the maze of "cookies" and "solos," I could see faintly evident an indictment. Just to be sure, I should book store should be individuated by the Kanan, especially in the news columns. I cannot see any writer more famous than Mark Twain, but not mention the fact that the same chairman spoke for some 30 or 40 minutes in a very long speech, and that some very construe- What's the matter? Did the chap with the sensitive heart coeruleum campaign for a variety design answer M, T? tive information was offered. And, anyway, we think the chairman's humor was better than the writer's. (Editor's Note: The article which M. T. refers to was an attempt to point out the evidence lack of interest shown by the authors in the survey called for discussion of M.S.C. and W.S.G.A. Tuesday night called for discussion of the establishment of a student book-store. At the meeting, the M.S.C. appeared and this was admitted when at the end of the meeting a question arrose on which individual or group was taken into account; a group was powered by the lack of a quotum). Editor Daily Kansan: Our athletic director has promised to answer the Kannan with a "corking" team. Meanwhile, he schedules games with Kansas and New York at Salina, western at Winnfield and Bakersfield, Granted at Wichita, and are fine ones, it seems strange that Dr. Allen schedules games with them while he makes arrangements with some of the better teams in the the Emmons are sure that if Dr. Allen really cared to do so, he could come out play games with schools such as the University. Votre Dame, Notre rival in the north, Nebraska, has games with some good teams in the East and gum which usually finishes behind Kansas. Big six standings can get those games, why couldn't Kan- There is another side to this idea which should appeal to all of Allen. If these larger schools could be added, there would naturally be return engagements played here. These games would draw a large attendance, which means money, which seems to be one of Dr. Allen's first loves. Dr. Alen last year refused to play NXU. on the grounds that the game would be played in Madison Square Garden and not on the campus, he said. Mr. Kerr was likely not held in Cincinnati in Kansas City. Is that constellation? Customers that know it is bad to give the company a "working" one, why doesn't the coach give it a chance to unwork its power against you? igger school? Still Another Bathtub-Radio Galahad I wonder what it would take to arouse the interest of the local University alumni? Editor Daily Kansan: of the loyal University. Not so long ago Dr. F. C. Allen made the statement that football that country was becoming a thing of the past. Perhaps he knew what he was talking about—at least here at the university. talking about—at least in schools, where schools, whose coaching system is as low as ours, are ready to investigate and address it. Do we want to support political machines or do we want to support football in the true sense of corruption? Political parties are carried on by members of the organization, and Kansas University will have good access to them. We should emphasize the removal of these members. However, other schools have fired the athletic director—Why cannot we — More politics. Already Mr. Allen has bragged about the good team he will have this year, and also invited the batahut球队 to attack his system. The batahut球队 to attack his system. Dr. Allen does not realize that football season would bring prestige to receivers than six years of championships. Football championships will not bring prestige to him anyway. Therefore he will continue to play in games that will attract bigger and better basketball players. bigger and better basketball. He would travel to China and bring back a good basketball if the occasion required. However, the alumni must persuade a football player to even attend school. attended school. The whole staff needs a house cleaning. Why can she work at the top and replace them with some one worthy to do co-operation and a school team? Then the football and basketball teams care of their own. J. A.
