Y MINISTER DISAGREES
Denies Absurd Attack onStu dents and Daily Kansan in a City Paper
Says University Community is Exceptionally High in Morals—Student Gives Interview
Chancellor Strong this morning branded as utterly false and absurd certain charges reflecting on moral conditions at the University, accredited to Chancellor Roth of a small university in the city and published in the Topoka Capitan. Roth was a graduate student at the University last year.
Says Chancellor Roth:
"Card games are played on the opening day of the semester at K. U. under the sce of University officials." Sue, Corps: Geocellon Skye;
"The charge that card playing is done in University buildings is manifestly absurd."
Savs Chancellor Roth:
'Slys Chancellor Born:
"The University newspaper, (The
Daily Kansas publishes articles
containing profanity and other
language that would not be printed
in any decent newspaper in the
state."
Kansan is "Clean and Decent"
Sara Choncolle Strong
"The Daily Kansan is as clean and decent a newspaper as is published in Kansas, and for honest constructive journalism might well be emulated by any newspaper anywhere." Saev Chancellor Roth.
"Proficiency is continually blended in college yells in chapel, and I have heard but one professor make a protest against such conditions."
"Occasional 'jay' outbursts of proscribed words give the ground for Mr. Roth's assertion that 'proafinity' is 'continually blended' with college yells. No faculty member approves of this, and if our crudely wants to do so, he situation all he needs to do is to ask specific information before me."
Continuing Dr. Strong said:
Continuing Dr. Strong said:
"This outbreak of the gentleman from Oklahoma is but one of divers such annoyances that I have elicited on in the interests of truth to deny all such stories."
Lawrence Minister Speaks
Rev. Eugene T. McFarland who is a member of the same denomination as Chancellor Roth said, when shown the statement of Chancellor Roth: "I have seen nothing to justify the remarks. The moral tone of the town and University is far above the average, and I couldn't think of a finer community into which to send students. I have never seen any profinity in the Daily Kansan and have, with its high standards and moral tone. It is a mistake to pick exceptions in judging the University."
Prof. F. Wellman a graduate of Chancellor Ruth's school, who is now attending K. U., has the following to say concerning the statements: "I have been here a year and have seen nothing of the conditions which Chancellor Mell reports as being common with students I had worked that contained profanity and the Daily Kan斯 has been entirely free from it as far as I have seen. The good qualities of the University easily counteract the bad."
MEDICS ORGANIZE SOCIETY
A meeting of the students of the School of Medicine was held this morning during chapel hour in the medic rooms to organize a student medical society. Meetings will be held regularly for the discussion of medical topics that have to do with the various phases of the practice of medicine.

Dr. Strong Advises Student to Drop Plans for a Tug-of-War
Chancellor Frank Strong issued a second statement today concerning the proposed plan of having a freshman-sophomore tug-of-war or similar event as a remedy for interclass disturbances.
"I hope that those concerned in the matter will consider very seriously the question of breaking over a rule against student disturbances that has prevailed for the last nine years," said the Chancellor. "All of us seem to be very desirous of traditions and we now have one that is grounded on good sense and experience." We already placed the mark of distinction on the University in the minds of other Universities of the country."
**Chancellor** **Strong** also issued a
**warning** about possible disturbance
**day** day.
"I wish to call attention to the fact that the holiday on May 1 that has become a tradition, is based on refraining from interclass disturbances and to enable the student understanding and agreement. In my opinion no sane man could desire the return of the old-fashioned student disturbances from which all universities of standing are making desperate attempts to get away."
Prof. W. H. Johnson has decided that he cannot attend the meeting of university employment officials at Cornell University. He says the budget is not large enough to cover such a trip.
Johnson Can't Go.

CATHOLICS COULDN'T FIND PITCHER SMEE
St. Marys Players Unable to Hit Kansas Twirler; Score 9 to 1
VARSITY STRONG AT BAT
Amass Triple, Four Doubles, and Five Singles From Gillahan and O'Leary—Opponents 1 Hit
Pitcher George Snee had things his own way yesterday afternoon and took the chestiness out of the St. Marys baseball team on McCook field, 9 to 1. Snee did most of the work but his teammates knocked two Catholic pitchers all over the play and played fast ball. Twelve Catholics fanned before the Kansas pitcher.
For the first time this season, McCarty's men got their bats in front of the ball and did some real hitting. A triple, four doubles and five singles was the amount collected off Gillahan and O'Leary.
Kansas sewed up the game in the first session when Wandell grounded to short and Dillon let the ball slide through his glove. Snee's second Wandell out to second, DeLongoy walked, Canary missed Painter's fly and Wandel chased home. Then Chinmery swat-ted a two base blow, scoring DeLongoy and Painter. In Wandel grounded second and third game home on Stack's error.
McCarty's pupils scored twice more in the sixth stanza. Painter led off with a single, Chinney laid one down and Painter anchored on second. Van der Vries walked. Sproul snugled, scoring Painter. Togo Somers sluggled the ball for two bases, bringing in two runs. The Jayhawkers humiliated Peter O'Leary in the eightth andDer Vries lobbed the fence and rested on third base. Sproul singled and scored Van. Bishop broke into the limelight with a two bagger sending Sproul home.
The Irishmen made their home tally in the ninth. Dillon got a scratch single and Soldoni hit a Texas league back of失误. Dillon fanned and Rozier ended the agony, Painter to Sproull.
