THURSDAY, FEBRUARY 10, 1921
New York state is thinking of putting a tax on professional sports. Such a tax law will probably cause the other states to fill up with poker players and chess sharks.
COMING BACK
The boys, as well as the whole gang,
had gobs of it last night—the old Kansas scrap. The old fight is coming back, it is back to stay. From start to finish it was a slam bang attack that sent the bail and players fiercely carping from one end of the court to the other. It was one of the scans that Kansans like to see.
And the Jayhawks needed as their scrap, too, for the lads from Washington were out to win, and were just as valiant in their attempt. At no time was the game put on ice for the home team, for the brilliant rallies of the visitors always notched the score a little closer.
And' Kansas can do it! '
But the Jayhawkers came through with victory, and the winning bug is again within the Kansas fold. Coach Phog seems to have hit the best combination of the season, and with the old fight going again, Kansas should make it hot for the Tigers as well as the Cowboys in the final tittles.
The Plain Tales Editor asserts that prohibition is eliminating a lot of probities for those who go to college. Evidently, the writer never suffered the exquisite head pain that arrives the morning after a few fingers of "mix mine!"
THE NEW KANSAN
The Kansas City Kansan, first appearing as an evening paper the first of this month, will probably be of interest to many University students as well as to all Kanasans, since the state feels a natural pride in any progressive venture of its own section of Kansas City.
The new paper has seemingly opened its career with very good prospects for healthy growth, even in view of the thorough newspaper service from the city across the river. All will admit the courage of the founding of the new paper, especially since in view of the slack condition of business just now, the new paper appeared not as a timid youngster in journalism but rather as one possessing great strength. For this reason the new venture should have a rather beneficial psychological effect upon the nearly two hundred thousand Kansas residents at the mouth of the Kaw.
The new organ appears as a conservative type of newspaper, much the same in appearance as the Topoca Capital, and the paper seems to average about the same in the number of pages and volume of advertising. A departure from the Capital style is made by the wide measure editorial section of the paper. Of interest in
the first issue was a short declaration of principles under the signature of Senator Capper and a list of regular distinctive features. According to its own statement Kansas City, Kannas, and good fiction will always be kept in mind in preparing the material.
No matter how the state and the patrons of the newspaper come to regard the call which the Cappar organization interpreted as the voice of a city demanding a newspaper, there evidently is ground to believe that the two Kansas Cities do have separate municipal burdens and interests. Whether from this it can be assumed that the city overlapping two state bricorders requires two systems of newspapers remains to be seen. It is not to be doubted, however, that the paper will receive cordial consideration if it makes an adequate attempt to live up to the best principles expressed in its platform declaration.
The general prestige of the thriving papers heretofore established by the hackers of the new paper is sure to effect optimistically many home owners and business people of the nearby metropolis.
At California University, the women students have acknowledged Friday as fish day. Here at K. U, the women aren't particular on what day they catch 'em.
KANSAS AND ATHLETES
Although some of the citizens of Kansas are inclined to believe that athletics at Kansas are very inferior because Kansas teams do not get the penant in each branch of interollerate athletics each year, as no
pennant in each branch of intercollegiate athletics each year, as no school can hope to do, the rating given
to K. U. athletes by national followers of sport refutes this erronious belief.
Kansas was especially well represented in football last year. The pickers of the All-Valley teams differed
positions, but Kansas was well rated on both individual selections. More
four of the twelve Valley places of honor on the Outing Magazine's football ball hon list. Lonborn, Nettles, Reid, and Mandeville secured reecg
tion. Again, in the choice of the All-American teams, Kansas secured two enviable places on the second eleven, Lonborg at quarter, and Reid at end. It is interesting to note that many of the choices for the first Valley honors failed to place high in the All-American selections, while Valley men rated low by local followers of the sport rated high in the All-American choice.
The University of Kangas, however,
does not gain football honors alone.
Everett Bradley, Premier Athlete of
America, was listed as one of the
three middle test track man in the
All-American Track and Field Team,
published in the Annual Athletic
Almnae. He is given the honor of
being the American champion in the
pentathelon.
K. U. athletes have placed the University on the map this year. The rest is producing much the same aliber of athletes as the east. The tiflame戏学 and the New Era of University life go hand in hand to advance the best interests of K. U.
ENGLAND AND WAR DEBTS
Propaganda, eminating from Europe and suggesting the cancellation of the allied debts to the United States has been flooding the country. The other day, J. Taylor Teddle, an English authority on finance, asserted that England's debt to America must be cancelled if economic disaster is to be prevented.
Recently, the British government formally proposed a cancellation of all inter-aligned debts, but the proposals seemed to be unacceptable to the American government. According to her own story, England sought no national advantage in asking for this cancellation.
No one can doubt that this cancellation would be beneficial to the Brit-ish government. Moreover, it would be an act of brotherly love. Yet, the saneness of the action might be questioned.
We are a great and wealthy nation, say the English diplomats. However,
if we cancel these debts and shoulder the burden of the allied war debts in the form of increased taxation, we may find that wealth has the power to disappear.
England has gained much by the war. Germany is to pay her an indemnity to help repair her losses. The fritile and wealthy continent of Africa virtually belongs to England. Two-thirds of Germany's colonial possessions fell to England as her share of the spoils of war. The commercial values she will receive through these possessions are many times greater than the debt she owes to the United States, great though that is.
It is true, that meeting the interest on this debt might embarrass the British government for several years. For that reason, it might be economical to eliminate the interest, but the cancellation of the principle is a suggestion that does not smack of song.
BASEBALL REVIVAL
annotation of the principle is a suggestion that does not smack of sound business judgment.
And it is feared that the recent exposures of game-throwing have caused a decrease in interests and confidence in the game even among these men.
During the week beginning April 1, the manufacturers of athletic goods hope to revive the fast-dying interest in that one-time king of sports, baseball. It has ior some time past ceasod to be a sport and has been functioning as a profession. It has gone the way that horsemaking and so many other sports traveled when the gamblers became interested in a financial way.
So the men who have a legitimate claim to financial interest in the game will try, by window displays and publicity, to put it back in the position it once held among the sports. And
it once held among the sports. And
before it can come back it must be a
position to receive the support of
the public.
The history of baseball should serve as a warning to those followers of football who choose that means of gambling. Baseball once held the position in college that is now attributed to football, but it is very doubtful whether it will ever again receive that honor.
