In a deft move that送去 the Sour Owl bedraggled and puzzled, the University administration recently assured the campus campus humor authorization under a bond equal to the year's profit. This bond will be forfeited if the administration receives further complaints as to the character of the magazine following the next issue.
Will Be No Censorship
The clipping of Owlie's wings came after unfavorable comment from outsiders had been received by University officials. The questionable nature of the "Snooker" column, and the character jokes in the last issue were the
No effort to censor the magazine or bar it from publication will be made by University officials. The nature of the remaining issues depends upon the judgment of the Owl staff and the student board of censors. It is felt by the ad-hoc committee that the force will be of sufficient restraining force in future rights of the sage old bird.
Is Second Offense
The most severe criticism of the magazine came from a resident in Kansas City, Mo., who edged papers and passages that, in his opinion, were of a definitely negative nature than a clear written complaint has been received by the University.
The rique character of the publication was questioned earlier in the year, when the staff was called before the men's student adviser. After a discussion of the merits of the magazine, it was suggested that each issue be read and explained by the editor before a committee which would include Miss Elizabeth Burke, assistant head of the Jencks, at that time president of W.S.G. A.
This plan was not adopted, but a Pollyanna issue of the Owl appeared, following the conference, in which each of the candidates asked for an owl to assure correct interpretation.
In 1926, the feathers of the Owl were ruffled by a student council investigation resulted in a fine of $100. This was not enough to persuade the magazine. In 1914, after the first issue of the publication was black-balled by the merchants of Lawrence, but this action brought such a rush of publicity that the next issue sold at a premium.
LAWRENCE, KANSAS, SUNDAY, MAY 3, 1936
In recent years the flight of the Owl has been sceneal and graceful, but apparently it has run head-on into an unforeseen obstacle.

Memorial services for Prof. Raphael Dorman O'Leary, who died Friday morning at the Lawrence Memorial hospital after being held in Fraser theater this afternoon.
Dead closed the career of one or the most beloved, one of the most conscientious, one of the most liberal professors who has ever taught upon Mount Orcad. For 41 years, he taught English and English composition.
As a teacher of English composition, he was an eminent success. He prided himself with having ready every word he wrote nearly as many words in criticism. Although his red ink may be devastating, it was always a constructive demolition. He tried to help each student as much as he possibly could.
He Knew His Students
His conciereous interest in students led him to know them intimately. He prided himself with knowing by name every student he had ever had in class. It was this same deep conciereousity that allowed him to refuse to shift any of his teaching duties to others. When he suffered a severe attack of the flu in March he returned to his classes before regaining fully his knowledge and was taken to the hospital.
In the classroom he was known for his solitary as well as well as his precise criticism of what he said to that man that he had had a greater influence upon the written English than any man in the world.
An Enemy of Intolerance
An Enemy of Influence
His interest in the flow of national events and international events was great, a zealous fight of injustice and insecurity. His irony and wit were strong against a word of cruelty.
Last week, he was one of the high ranking professors in the poll conducted by the Kansan, receiving an “A” averaged 85.6 percent of his nairies were sent out several times a month to alumni groups over the nation asking when they desired more to hear on an alumni program over station broadcasting. The same answer came back: Professor OLLee.
Native of Kansas
Member of Phi Beta Kappa
Professor O'Leary was a member of Kansas Alpha chapter of Phi Beta Kappa, and its president in 1899-1900. He was the first editor of the Graduate Magazine of the University of Kansas
Raphael Dorman O'Leary was a native of Kansas, a graduate of the University of Kansas, and for more than 40 years a member of the faculty of the University, and until a few years ago chairman of the department of English. Professor O'Leary and Mahlah Hiteher were students of the University of Kansas, were married Aug. 18, 1896, and were parents of three sons—Dorman, now in the food business in Kansas City; Paul, professor of economics at Cornell University; and Theodore, the youngest, who was born in Oxford, England, while Professor O'Leary was a junior year's study, is a Kansas City newspaper man.
In addition to his study at Oxford, Professor OLEary traveled extensively on the European continent, and studied at Munich, Lucerne, and Paris.

A.B. Degree From University

The following year he was principal of the schools at Pesston, Mass., where he attended from which he received an A.B. degree in 1895. Prof. Charles G. Dunlap, now professor emeritus of English, was then on leave, and Mr. O'Leary joined the staff of the University of Kansas. In 1901, he was made an associate profes-
