A THOROUGH AND A FAIR TRIAL
A THROUGH AND A FIRM TRIAL
It has long been a feature of legal prosecutions that an impartial judge and jury should be selected to determine the guilt of any accused individual and also that the accused should be considered innocent until declared guilty by imperial investigators.
With the unanimous vindication yesterday by the Kansas Athletic board, of members of the Kansas football team, the fair procedure for the Big Six is (1) to publish all the evidence which caused it to pass on the charges against Kansas, (2) to choose an outside impartial body to examine athletic conditions not only at Kansas but at all schools in the conference, and (2) to proceed at once to define "professionism" and to decide definitely what help may and may not legally be given to athletes working their way through college; (4) to specify definitely to what extent students and alumni and coaches are permitted to interest prospective students in any college in the conference.
A much more strict set of rules concerning keeping, helping and helping athletes is needed, even though such rules might be evaded; if they can't be followed and if football cannot be played by gentlemen and sportsmen perhaps it had better be abolished.
So many questions are involved in this athletic situation, that no matter how objective and sensible one may try to be, it is hard to say anything conclusively. In fairness, the Big Six should consider Kansas' requests for an investigation and for specific rules to govern future conditions.
It is not alone Kansas that deserves survey; every college in the Big Six and almost every one in the country is in a questionable position. Kansas has pled "not guilty" and has charged its opponents with identical practices; all should now have a thorough and fair search.
It is not time for inflammatory and loose talk about "leaving the conference" and "getting real games." In the eyes of the public, a stain rests on Kansas' name. It must be removed if undeserved; if it is an evidence of real guilt, the men responsible for it must be eliminated from control of our athletics and our own student and alumnus attitude must be changed to lessen the present overemphasis on victory.
The small number of students buying fare to the Pennsylvania game is probably due to the fact that it is so near the end of the month.
A TEST OF FREE SPEECH
The limits of free speech will be tested before an audience in the theater of Green hall tonight. The sponsors of the speaking contest on campus problems have been notified of an almost infinite variety of subjects which are to be arranged as a means of relief for a mass of pent-up thoughts which have been longing to be expressed.
The project deserves to be complimented, for not only does it develop the technique of speaking before an audience, but it also serves as a forum for the expression of many worthy ideas. Probably every institution on the campus will be subjected to criticism for that which it has done or failed to do.
Unfortunately, only eight of the contestants will appear in the final contest, and no doubt some very interesting subjects will be heared only in the initial try-out tonight. Not only, therefore, do its sponsors invite participation in the contest, but attendance at the forum will lend atmosphere and incentive to the young orators.
When the Star announced that Kansas was barred from the Big Six Saturday morning, the hill record for the number of students out of bed before 8 s. m. Saturday was shattered badly.
IT NEEDS EVERYONE'S HELP
IT NEEDS EVERYONE'S HELP
Criticism to the effect that the campain chest thrush will be directed entirely upon the organized houses is unfounded. Something from everyone is the motive of the executive committee, and at no time has it been the intention cf that group to concentrate its efforts upon fraternity and security houses alone.
It is a drive to eliminate all superfluous drives and obviously cannot be successful without the complete cooperation of every student in the University, not of a few organizations only. Six solicitations have been combined into one in order that students may not be bothered with persons petitioning them for money over the period of the entire school year.
Naturally the various organizations are asked to assist in putting over the campaign, but it is to be understood that the project will cover every rooming house on the campus and it is certainly not expected that any group will live beyond rational limits.
It is everyone's problem, for it concerns the welfare of organizations from which we all benefit. The project in question supports support from the entire student body.
King Carol's October car is a Dusenberg. His car for September was a Cord. That just goes to show the advantages of being a king. If we had pulled the same stunt he did we'd probably be walking barefoot now.
HOOVER'S QUICK REPLY
HOUVER.
The charges made by R. S. Kelley, former head of the Denver field force of the department of the interior, to the effect that the government had illegally released eight million acres of oil shale lands, was promptly squashed by the President's quick and bitter reply denying all such transactions.
The President seemingly is justified in refusing to permit an oil scandal to attach to his administration. His immediate reply to the Kelley allegations shows leadership which should prove politically profitable to him in the country.
The New York World, which published the charges, was denounced by the President as being either misedef or wilfully malicious. "Reckless, baseless and infamous charges in the face of responsible denial . . . upon the probity of such men as Secretary Wilbur . . . can only be damage to public service as a whole" declared Hoover. The World is not likely to relish the insinuation that it is similar to Hearst papers; what it has to say in reply will prove interesting either in defense of the Kelley charges or as an admission of sensational journalism.
Campus Opinion
Being of the observing sort, I have been amazed at the paradoxical implications of the new signboard which few know. I must first front of the Administration building. In the four years which I have spent in this institution, there seem to have been only two kinds of noises of a disturbing nature which are heart in and heart out.
Editor Daily Kansan:
--clean way and on a high plane. They feel that Kansas is not buying its football players or any other athletic competition in the city, but that other schools are going a long distance out of their way—at this particular time—to point to Kansas as a place for boys to boot out
The first of these has come from the various representatives of our police force who have a habil of whistling or speaking in very low speed limit. The second sort of noises issues forth in great volume from those who are experimenting on the musical devices provided by the School of Fine Arts or who daily find it necessary to carry a loudspeaker.
Our Contemporaries
Of course I would not be so unfair as to criticize these auditory disturbances, but I am wondering for whose benefit that sign has been posted.
KANSAS ISN'T DISSTUBED
The action taken against the University of Kansas by other schools in the Big Six finds the state of Kansas backtracking on its promise to people of Kansas believe that athletic affairs at Kansas are conducted in a

THE FOOTBALL HUMBUGGERY
"Godd bless the man," exclaimed Sancho Panza, "who first invented sleep." Similarly we are hearing apologists for more or less disgusted professionalism in college football in effect exclaiming. God the man who invented sleep.
"Our trouble," says Mr. E. H. Lapton, "is that we were frank about it." Frank about what?
But is it frankness or only frank hypersity to say that since other bays are permitted to "work their way" through college it is unfair to buy them the footballists "work their way"! In Mr. Lapton's case he hired a football player at $75 a month ostensibly to sell life insurance. Not by the customary commission plan but possibly also higher $75. He should be held liable if he卖 not insurance or not. Is that frankness?
In the case of the Agleie player, however, there seems to have been an absence of any protest that the boy was "working his way" thru college. He was told by a friend as a "resistance" his services after he would be graduated from college!
Leaving out the question of frankness

and completely professionalized. It was not a bad suggestion. It would at least hit it on an honest footing.
There is no aspect of this subterranean business that is creditable to the alumni who practice it or the college that tolerate it.

These two editorials, presenting opposing viewpoints, to some extent represent Kansas newspaper's attitudes on climate change. It must be pointed out that the view of the Daily Californian is a minority one; the San Diego Times goes the way of the El Dorado Times.
