"Phog" Allen Gives Speech Over Radio On Clean Athletics
UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS, LAWRENCE, KANSAS, TUESDAY, OCT. 24, 1922.
Sounds Warning Against Danger of Professionalism in Organizing College Teams
Dr. Forrest C. Allen, director of athletics, talked over radio Monday evening at 6 o'clock from the Kansas City Star's station, W. D. A. F. The subject of his talk was, "Some Benevolent Athletes Need to Understand Literals." Under this, he told of the ideals and aims of college athletics. Doctor Allen warned against the danger of professionalizing football, and urged that administrative heads of colleges take precaution to thwart an assault on the heart of American athletics clean.
Doctor Allen emphasized the fact that athletics develop those qualities of body, mind and spirit which make desirable world leaders. He directed attention to the disciplinary value of organized athletics and the training in the value of teamwork. He emphasized the need for persistent and determined and must fight harder when opponents threaten his goal than when in midfield.
Stigmatizes Commercialism
The K. U. mentor stigmatized commercialism in college athletics in no uncertain terms.
"One of the commonest dangers to college athletics is the athlete who under the guise of anatomyism, wants to get paid for his athletic services. He is the chap from some locality where no possibilities are an athlete and he谊性 authority is to guarantee him his room and board only or he may be the presumptions Ld who wants even more. This gives rise to the so-called "athletic trump" who plays a one year at one college and the next year celebrates or where the abilities of this form of graft are greater. This type of person must be dedicated, a disorganizer and a menace to the welfare of the entire student body. He is the type who does not want honest work, but wants something for nothing. It is this type of individual who is striving to professionalize football and will, if success
great honest work, but wants something for nothing. It is this type of individual who is striving to professionalize football and will, if successful, ruin the greatest of academic games.
Then there is the common allied danger of proselyting among coaches and alumni for their respective colleges. Armored with “scholarships” and “self-help” talks these pseudoopposites of the schools go about in their respective states and elsewhere seeking desirable material, each trying to capture what they can apostose with the greatest personal magnetism and the biggest bundle of fairly-like promises of “soft job” gets the lad.
"Professionalism in amateur athletics is to blame in part at least for the critical attitude that so many
Easy Money Attracts Players
"Too often, he is the lad who has in high schools the proper ideals of being a student, but I feel that henceforth he has a valuable commodity. With this event of graft introduced into his life, school spirit dies and his big purpose is lost. He becomes an 'altramp' trophy and is the type of man who agitates a situation to accomplish a serious criticism of its athletic teams.
bringing toward the players who are representing them on college athletic fields. Criticizing the play of an individual or the team by fellow students or alumni should be a wrong attitude, the men represent their school and be giving their all, unquestionably, who is more than those criticizing it.
"But the greatest and most menacing evil in athletics is gambling. It has wrecked every activity wherein it has sunk its fangs. Boxing, wrestling, horse racing, and base ball have had their turn. Football and other inter-college sports, except by careful administration on the part of the men in charge, will suffer the same fate.
"A constant ideal of vigorous manhood, fair play, fair play, sport and love, of institution, will do most to offset this grave menace to college sports. An athletic sports must at all hazers be a player. The worst progress is a quarter of a century. The athletic heart of America is elementally clean, because it beats in the breast of the twelve-year-old American boy. Let us keep it so."
Jacks Issues Warning to Men Who Want Training
A warning that former service men who believe their military service was the cause of a vocational handicap must file applications for vocation training before December 16 was issued yesterday by H. S. Jacks, field agent of the United States Veterans' Bureau.
No applications for vocational training can be filed after that date, according to Mr. Jacks unless Congress amends the act providing for vocational training. He said that the department should but urged that those who wished to file for training would profit by doing so before December 16.
To Finish Art Work Of 1923 Jayhawker Soon, Says Editor
New Pictures of Organization Houses and Read Show Reviews to Be Features
Art work on the 1923 Jayhawker annual will be completed within a week, according to an announcement made by Ted Hudson, editor-in-chief. "And," he continues, "there will not be a cartoon in the whole volume. Caricatures will not be consistent with the beauty and spirit of this year's book which in truth is going to be 'an aristocrat of college annuals'."
Instead of the cartoons, the editor says the book will be replete with cut drawings of an artistic nature and features and set off the their features.
From all indications, this year's Jaghawer bids fair to outsell the 1922 volume by 500 copies, and the students are responding because of the value they are getting, according to the editors.
"It has been the practice of Jay Hawkeye editors in the past to take the old cuts of organization houses," said Mr. Hedson, "and to use them, as they were, year after year, adding new pictures only of new houses. We have had taken with a special camera all residence of Hill organizations and these will appear appropriately in the annual."
Another new feature which has been added to this year's book is the road section, reviewing and giving insights into the plays that shows playing Lawrence this year.
To Stop Locker Thefts
Will Allow Only Faculty and Students in Gym
Recent locker thefts in the men gymnasium have necessitated the right enforcement of a new rule, G. B. Patrick, instructor of physical education, said this morning. Hereafter no one will be permitted in the gymnasium, locker rooms or swimming pool who is not a student of the Uni
"As much is being done by the department as can possibly be done, to check depredations in the way of stolen gymnasium suits," said Mr. Patrick. Conditions are no worse than they have been in past years, and most of the lost suits and shoes belong to students who are careless and unintelligent. Any night in the week it is possible to find o dozen lockers left open, and parts of gym suits scattered all over the room.
The new rule in regard to eligibility for entrance to the gymnasium except for social and athletic function is that it must be immediately according to Mr. Patrick.

Gilpin's Rise To Prominence One Most Sensationa
Maubar Was First t Discover Talent of Brilliant Negro
Klauber Was First to
Actor
For the second time this year University students will have the opportunity of witnessing the performance of a play which made an instantaneous and smashing success on Broadway, and of seeing an actor who has played by prominent critics one of the first actors in America, Charles Gilpin.
The "Emperor Jones" first made its appearance at the Princess Theatre, New York City, when Adolph Klunser signed Gilpin for the title role after witnessing the performance of Drinkwaters' play, Abraham Lincoln, which played Lawrence a few days ago.
Immediately the New York Times, and other great papers in the cities where Gilpin appeared, burst out with quotations for the talented reggae actor, and national magazines, among them the American, paid tribute to him. Much has been written of the life of the man, which reads like a chapter in fiction, the bare facts being: he was born in Richmond, Va., and learned the art of elocution from Sisters in a Parochial school which he attended. Later his parents moved to Philadelphia and he secured a job at the musical firm where he singing and speaking enabled him to earn money at local entertainments and eventually he became a vaudeville performer. Later he joined a small stock company in Chicago where he obtained the necessary experience 8

It is of the adventures of a wily,

Seats for The Emperor Jones at the Bowersock Theater are going rapidly, according to the manager, Charles Gilpin will speak this afternoon in the Little Theatre in Green Bay all students who care to hear him.
Orpha Harding, president of the W. S. G. A., has announced that the date rule will be off tonight and for that event only.

High Compliment Paid Exhibits Of K. U. Design Class
Unavoidable Delays May Have Kept Kansas From Prizes
Unfortunately the designs sent to the Seventh Annual Textile Design Exhibit, the Art Alliance of America, in New York, by Miss Rosemary Ketcham's design class, reached the day after the prizes had been awarded, because of delay in finish. Another prize, Miss Ketcham had set for their completion, and further delays due to the express company.
However, in notifying the contestants that their designs were too late the jury stutted. "We were very much deturbed that your designs were not well done and you are lovely and should have been included when the prizes were awarded." It will be interesting for you to know that your designs have a very attractive place in the exhibit, and we hope that they will be admired by all."
Aggie Game Seats Going
The designs will be on exhibit to the public from October 24 to November 12.
Athletic Office Has 900 Tickets For Sale
Reserved tickets for the Agriculture game are now on sale, and may be obtained at the office of the Athletic Association or at the Round Corner Drug Store for $2.00. The seats are available on the thirty yard line in the new Stadium. *Seats in the old wooden bleachers may be obtained for $1.50.* Dr. F. C. Allen stated that the two soffits available for the K. U. rooters are selling fast, and all who desire to get their reservations in immediately.
There will be two trains available Saturday morning for the game. The Santa Fo will operate a special leaving here at 9 o'clock and departing from Manhattan immediately after departure. The train to Union Pacific will have a regular train leaving here at nine. Those boarding this train may stay on Sunday if they so desire and return on same ticket. The round trip will cost one and a third fare, or $7.75, and slightly more on the Union Pacific.
Nonchalant Nimrods Dubbed Gunbreakers
"Burning midnight oil" has taken on a new meaning. Lights seen from students' windows at three or four o'clock in the morning do not always indicate that the occupant of the room is preparing himself for an 8:50 meal. That may be that he is only getting ready for a dawn-hunting expedition.
It is not an uncommon sight, these chilly mornings, to see several ardent hunters making their way toward the ponds and sloughs where ducks are to be found. These men are usually supplied with the mechanical equipment for participation in the sport, but some mental apparatus is lacking.
The Kansas City Star of October 2 contained a write-up and picture of Olive Horner who was graduated from the School of Engineering in 1913.
Send the Daily Kansan home.
"K. U. Guhbrenerkers" is the name applied to students who are inexperienced duck-hunters. This name results from stupidity displayed on the part of some would-be duck hunters, who attempt to kill ducks out of range, spoil the shot for hunters within gunshot.

Oklanoma May Upset Dope
The Nebraska-Sooner game is one that is hard to forecast. Comparing the teams, the Cornhaskers should leave Norman Saturday night with another game in their won column. But games played in Oklahoma are never win until the final whistle blows, as the Jayhawk football team must play a game against main conditions may favor the Sooner huskies and with this advantage, the beef and skill of the Nebraskans may count for skill.
The game last Saturday between the Sooners and the Aggies which ended in a tie, is indicative of a powerful Sooner offense, rather than a weak Aggie defense. It speaks of Owen Dowson or But Nebraska should win, placing the Cornhuskers and the Bulldogs in a tie for first place.

Comparative scores mean little but they are nice to toy with. The Aggies beat Washington 47 to 0. Kansas won from the Ichabods, 32 to 3. The Titans beat Washington University by good scores while Drake also made the Jayhawkers take the count. So the Aggies have the dope their way. But there is a feeling in the Kansas student body, a trifle cocky perch, that the Jayhawkers had when playing Kansas and that the Jayhawkers will win despite dope.

State Penitentiary Band To Play Here Thursday Morning
Warden Armine Will Address Convocation on Phases of Penal Ward
Work
An opportunity to hear the famous thirty-piece band of the state penitentiary will be afforded the students of the University at Thursday's Convocation. An Aimline will bring forty persons by automobile to Lawrence for the occasion.
Preceding the concert, Warden Annirine will give a talk concerning some of the phases of the work done at the institution at Lansing. There are other speakers, including the Chancellor and officials of the peninsularity.
Convocation Worth Attending
According to Dean Kent, of the School of Education, this will be a convocation well worth attending. "I believe that this event will prove to be really worth while to the students and to their families," he said in a statement this morning. "We know very little of the most of our great state institutions and what they are doing and this will afford an opportunity to see one or two of the phases of the work done in one of the real important of them. We must not forget that this university is not the only place where educational facilities are to be had. The concert was a welcome addition and is an evidence of real work and interest and we should show them that we appreciate their work by attending convocation.
Concert Will Be Feature
The main feature of the program will easily be the concert which is given by the excellently trained penitentiary band. The following numbers will be rendered: Overture, Norma...Belleni Untied, United...Podewarenz Walzt, Blue Danube...Strass Fantasia, A Spanish Festival.

A few miles west of the town a large United States Tire billboard records that Lawrence was founded with that of the "New England Maid Society."
"Current history is more important than ancient, in this case, and the New England maids aren't suffering; but somebody should persuade the Goodyear people to multiply by four," said Mr. Flint.
