ATHLETIC BOARD RULES LUPTON'S EMPLOYEES OUT
Decision Would Make Beach Ineligible for Football This Fall Should He Sell Life Insurance
STAR NOT IN SCHOOL
Action Taken to Keep K. U.
Out of Another Big Six
Controversy
In an interview with Coach F. C. Allen late last night, it was learned that nothing certain could be said about whether Beech would play on this fall. "No one would know," he told. "Unit the player was over"
With the decision of the athletic department here at the University that no employee of the Bank Savings Life insurance company of Topka be able to continue their studies, difficulties between Ormund Beach great defensive fullback for the Jayhawkers last year, and K.U. arose. The football player had not registered at the University by 5 o'clock last night but joined the university on Monday. Northwestern university this year.
Beach did not attend school here during the spring semester last year, and it is said that the time all the advice he received from E. H. Lupton, president of the insurance company, as chauffeeur and salesman, was not employed as a salesman for the company, he refused to say whether he was employed in any other capacity because he had been an employee.
It has been impossible up to this time to find Beach and learn his stand on the question. He returned to Lawrence last week and took active part for his fraternity during rush week, but he was not present when he have been unable to reach him.
By the action of the athletic department, it is thought that K.U. is prone to avoid another controversy such as the one that took place last year and cried with the declaring intelligible of the conclusion of the football season.
In making the announcement yesterday concerning the board's ruling on the sale of its points, pointed out that there was no malice toward Lutton's company, but the fact that the board had been trying to Big Six controversy last year brought about the decision to discourage their sales.
Couch Hargis admitted yesterday that he didn't have the slight idea of what he was doing, but added that he was not delaying the formation of the Jayhawk team. He said that he would be glad to add Bouch to the team provided the difficulty.
Dean George Shaad, faculty representative in the Big Si conference, had said that he was not sure and said that he has no jurisdiction over Beach island as the latter is not a part of the island.
"Beach has not attended school since last February," Dean Shaad said, "and until he actually enrolls here the student is more likely to have his athletic eligibility. Last year the Big Six conference officials investigate Beach's case along with that of others and held at that time that he could interaculate athletic connection."
