"THE COMING ELECTION" Frank R. Kent, political writer for the Baltimore Sun, and one of the foremost political authorities in the United States, will speak here tomorrow night, his lecture being the first of the programs provided by the student activity ticket. Mr. Kent will speak upon "The Coming Election." He is well informed upon political subjects having been engaged in political reporting for the past thirty years. Students of political science will have an excellent opportunity to hear the exact facts concerning the approaching election. The students of the University of Kansas are fortunate in being given the opportunity of hearing the foremost lecturers and artists of the country for the nominal sum that is charged for the activity ticket. Whether the ticket will be offered next year will be decided by the sale of tickets this year. Right now the outlook is gloomy. But whether there will be a ticket offered next year or not, will not alter this year's program. The committee has worked hard to secure the best talent available. Tomorrow evening the first of these programs will be given and the results will tell the story. Better go. A FOOTBALL-LESS HOMECOMING The College of Emporia, recently claiming publicity as a college that could increase its enrollment while its football status gradually declined, now proposes a new plan—a homecoming without a football game. A day's program emphasizing especially the intellectual aspect of college life has been prepared. Scholarship convocations and speeches by several visiting college presidents, by William Allen White of Emporia and President Robert Maynard, Chicago university, are planned for the entertainment of the alumni. All this is an interesting experiment and its success or failure will be closely watched by other colleges. But when college "grads," old or young, get together, they meet in history, demon recall the "A's" they made in history, or the fact that they made this or that honorary society. It is the extra-curricular incidents that one usually remembers and considers worthy of comment. The sterling athletes of former years, the friendships made, important dates, membership in social organizations, and so forth stand out in the college life of a "grad." Probably the College of Emporia will see that the alumni have time for such unscholarly subjects. But even with that, there will possibly be a few old "grads" who would enjoy a good football game. OKLAHOMA PLEDGES GO FREE There is to be no more paddling of fraternity pledges at the University of Oklahoma. Any chapter caught violating this rule will be expelled from the university as a body and their pledge list cancelled, announced Dr. Bizzell of that school yesterday morning. He added that the new rule was not to **OFFICIAL MEMOJET LUELLE** Vol. XI. Vol. XX. Thursday, Oct. 13, 1982 No. 23 Notes due on Charleau's at 11 a.m. on regular notice on publication day.

BILLINGS. be taken as a fine gesture on the part of the school, but as a serious regulation to which the fraternities must conform. There are points for and against fraternity paddling, but it does seem that freshmen know what they are "in for" before pledging. Was there ever a freshman who didn't know fraternity paddling exist? There is, after all no rule requiring that freshmen shall pledge, and anyone bitterly opposed to such treatment can jolly well stay out of fraternities. EINSTEIN BECOMES FACULTY MEMBER Prof. Albert Einstein, the mathematical wizard, who expounded a theory of relativity that everyone talks about, but few can understand, has accepted an appointment as a resident faculty member of the Institute for Advanced Study, now being organized in New Jersey. BETTY SLOAN, Captain. The primary purpose of this institute, according to its sponsors, is the pursuit of advanced learning and exploration in fields of pure science and high scholarship to the utmost degree that the facilities of the institution and the ability of the faculty and students will permit. It will seek to isolate a small, select group of students and professors so they can explore the realms of higher science without the interference of "outside distraction." Dr. Abraham Flexner, who frequently has attacked modern universities as being "hostile to the development of intellectual grasp," has been chosen director of the institute. This is one of the most progressive steps ever taken in American education, and will be of great importance to scientists everywhere. Our Contemporaries What is more, he has declined it in no uncertain fashion. He is reported to have said: "Modern education has too many games, basketball, and high-pleasure." ALFALFA BILL vs. HIGHBALLS That eminent entiment of the handlebar moustache and shooting neck tie, William H. Murray, Afalfa Bill, himself, has declined an invitation to attend a football game. Alfalfa Bill Murray is a politician of the old school. He looks like ancient lithographs of Kettuck sheriffs and hardriding western constables. His clothes might have been worn by Daniel Webster in the days before the Civil war. He most certainly does not look like affairs from the modern point of view. NELEFA BILL = HICRALLS One cannot help but lament the fact that the governor of the great state of Oklahoma, a commonwealth of more than two million population, should denounce education so heartlessly. It also leads one to wonder just how much truth there is in his statement, for it can be said a tone of conviction not to be denied. volumes, and did little or nothing else. The football and basketball that Alfalfa Bill deplores were not even in the embryo stage, and highballs were still beer selling for five cents a glass behind the sailor's swining doors. Thus it is easy to believe that Governor Murray speaks from hearsay and not actual experience when he says modern education has too many "football, basketball, and highball policies." The only reasonable and logical conclusion to deduce from his statement is that he talks about education as it pertains to certain individuals, instead of focusing on the students who are athletes who get nothing from football exaggerated ideas of their own importance, and stacks of press clippings, neither of which buy bread and butter. But there are others, and they predominate, who take out of their participation in athletics the will to play. In a sport that shuns good in lead in later years—Oregon Daily Emerald.
