Klan Is Dangerous, Un-American, and Unjust---Blackman
Sociologist Says Methods of The Organization Are Menace to Our Nation
Declaring that the methods of the Ku Klux Klan condemn it as "un-American, unjust and dangerous to the welfare of the community and the nation" and that the right to worship according to the dictates of conscience is a cardinal principle of Americanism. Post his visit he violated his views on the Klan in a special interview for the Kansan.
At two recent meetings of the Sociology Club student interest in secret
F, W, BLACKMAR
organizations has run high. Professor Blackmar, former dean of the Graduate School and author of the sociology text now used in the University, has explained the Klan at both of these meetings.
"Students Should be Tolerant"
"Students should keep open mind to the truth, with toleration for the opinions of others," said Dr. Blackmar. "I know but little of the constitution and recent operations of the Klan, besides the knowledge gained from newspapers. But judging from a record of its actions, its purposes seems to be to strike terror to wrongdoers in public office and to quicken justice and advance 'Americanism', whatever is meant by that."
"The Klan is the sole arbiter of who are the wrong-doers and what should be done with them. It assumes two or three great evils to be corrected, one of which is the domination of the one of mafiae of officials, and one the commission of crimes. Even though we grant that they are sincerely in their attempts to do good, their methods condemn them as un-American, unjust and dangerous to the health of the community and the nation.
"It is a dangerous thing for a society working behind masks or in the dark to attempt to govern politics, and to take over service that belongs to our courts of justice and other departments of legitimate government. Any attempt to bring religious strife into politics or community affairs is a step backward toward the dark ages.
The Red Cross subscriptions which are due may be paid at any of the Lawrence banks. The financial committee adopted the plan of having subcribers their donations at the bank instead of collecting through a big Red Cross drive, but so far the process has been successful. Since subcribers are slow in making their donations the results cannot be estimated at present.
"A self-constituted body assuming to judge others without due process of law can be nothing more than a mob. Citizens have the right to organize, discuss, and criticize measures and men, but the right to orate is not always right to usurp the functions of government nor the right to destroy."
Red Cross Drive Unsuccessful
In discussing the correct means for accomplishing what the Klan is trying to do, Professor Blackman says, "Respect for law and the constituted will is essential for permanent improvement. If 'eastern vigilance is the price of liberty', it is likewise the price of government, but no self-constituted secret order has a right to usurp functions of government in social order that belong to all of us."

Failure Of Kansas To Use Place Kick Gives Tigers Game
Annual Thanksgiving Day Battle Goes to Mizzoo in a Drizling Drise
A 4-yard place kick off the persistent boot of one Al Lincoln, although seemingly only three more points to the Tiger score at the time it was made early in the third quarter, proved to be the margin of battle when the whistle of the Kansas defense a close call Missouri gridiron classic at Columbia, Thankgiving. Thus as a tardy November sun cast long shadows over Rollin field last Thursday evening, the Missouri Tigers celebrated a more victory over the Kansas Jayhawkers, this time by a 9-to-7 score. The final score remained two for eleven which could so fiercely for sixty minutes in a game which kept the 13,000 spectators on their feet every minute. Each team scored a touchdown. Then Lincoln, after three failed attempts, boasted the ball high and true over the Kansas posts, while the Jayhawkers, lacking a rookie, a teammate, or a missed opportunity, while seeking for a large game, a touchdown, when a field goal would have won.
Rained for Three Quarters
It was just such a day as that on which the Jawhawkers played the Nebraska Cornhuskers, when the two teams took the field at third Timeout and then came back hard, just drizzling, the mist had started early in the morning and it could be seen on the first play that the field was heavy and slippery. Late in the third quarter, almost simultaneously with the Crimson and White teams, the last quarter was grimly fought under clear skies.
The Tigers won the toss and chose to receive. Higgins kicked off and then for fifteen minutes the two teams fought up and down the field. The defense was advantage, but unable to pursue it inside the Jayhawk territory. Twice the Tigers advanced inside the Kansas 45-yard line and on each occasion Lincoln fell back for an attempt at a place kick, both of the kicks falling short. The quarter ended with the Nissan in Missouri on their own 30-yard line.
Lincoln Made Touchdown
In the second quarter the Tigers received the first break of the game. With the ball on the Kansas 35-yard line Lincoln tried for another player in the end zone, but a Jayhawker on the chest, bounded it and Van Dyne, Tiger end, recovered it on the Kansas 25-yard line. On the next two plays Flower plunged the Kansas line for thirteen yards on the oval at the end of the oval on the Jayhawker 12-ja...
