Thomas Deymont Smith will no longer be available when pop and fight are needed. He has made his last journey from his home at Hawthorne to the home of the dayhawk he fought to the hard for and loved well-for "Cusin't Tom" died yesterday. Tom Smith will be missed on Mount Orend when the Kansas Relief came around in April, for it was he who handed out the trophies and awards to victorious athletes and acted as spokesman for the University in inviting them to return again. A famous athlete himself, he would never miss an opportunity to come into contact with the teams of the University, and would maintain to all listeners that Kansas had no peer—either in or out of the Mizurow Valley. It was common to introduce him to the students as, "one of the most distinguished and loyal members of the alumni body," when he would appear at rallies and other gatherings. He was a skilled orator, a man of more than ordinary strength and stature, and possessed of an unbound enthusiasm for Kauaʻi and things athletic, and it was these characteristics that enabled him to away his audiences as no other man could. "Cassius' Tom" will never appear on the campus again, but his spirit will carry on when the teams get into a tight place. He has made his last appearance at a rally er in the dewsee room; but the talks he made and the spirit he stood for can't be forgotten by those who knew him. May some other loyal alumni step forward to fill the place so long occupied by him when it becomes necessary to remind the student body of the thing Kansas told fo in his time. POLITICS IN MISSOURI The University of Missouri is suffering also as has Kansas from political division and interference. Funds, for the state university were cut severely yesterday in a report of the committee on appropriations. The university had asked for more than six million dollars. The support fund provided for only $2,671,700, and all new buildings were cut out. It is a deplorable condition when education becomes entangled with politics. The question of appropriations for state schools is not a political issue. When parties divide, Democratic and Republican, it is time that some safeguards were provided against such occurrences. Education has nothing to do with political parties. It is fundamental to all good citizenship. To allow students to be a direct attack upon patriotism. ARE STUDENTS RELIGIOUS George Coe of Teachers' College, Columbia University, names lack of reverence in his enumeration of the faults of young people today but he justifies their irreverence by saying that their elders are to blame because of their own occupations and stand-ware. There is doubtless less of what the older generation would call religious fervor in students of today than in those of the past generation, but can we say because of it that students are any less interested in questions of theology, or that they are any less religious than former generations of students have been? M. Care says that religion has become institutionalized, unpredictable and self-deceived. This may account in part for the fact that students do not seem as much interested in religion as they were formerly. The average student wants really not stare in religion. He is likely to rationalize and want to lose his belief in intellectual acceptance. It is not willing to accept anything with out question, and he responds much more readily to an appeal to his reason than to his emotions. We remember that the great young avolodget gory, Nathan Leempel, and at the conclusion of his treaty that summer that he expected to carry on with his study within the walls of the state penitentiary. A detailed report should be coming from him when dealing with various species of all birds. Campus Opinion --short of class favoritism. It is an easily recognized attempt to pay athletes, legitimately pay them, of course, to come to Kansas. --short of class favoritism. It is an easily recognized attempt to pay athletes, legitimately pay them, of course, to come to Kansas. I see by Monday's issue of the Kanana that the Inter Fraternity Council has adopted a plan wholly outstanding students of Kanaba high school, and will send them to K. U." The council has written to the coaches of the schools for lots of promising athletes. Information is to be sent to these men about The crowning feature of this new plan is that the Lawrence Chamber of Commerce has promised to procure and reserve lake for these students, so that if necessary they can work their way through. Every one has the right to work and every employee has the right to decide whom he will or will not employ. But to give a preference, an earned in any manner is nothing short of class favoritism. It is an I am not an athlete. I did not shine particularly in activities in my high school. It was too hard. But I can tell you that most work every inch of my way through college and medical school, if I may realize these mobilities. There are many like me here at Kansas University, but we walked on, so that our fraternities may have athletes on their roles in order that (good reason indeed) Kansas may have better athletic teams at Kansas, as it is. I can everyone see this. I know that this article will not alter one whit the resolution of the Fruit Council or the support of the Lawrence Chamber of Commerce which, by the way, is plied to the interests of Lawrence and K. U. But I scribble hope that a riot of campus opinion will appear, and that the Inter-Frut Council may be made to see the deliberate result to the self respecting, working student, and right it. These students are burdened from the lack of help and keep up with the expense. But these students make far better grades in proportion than do our fraternity friends. Fut membership is made possible to these athletes by reducing the cost of training facilities. Praterites are always full of the kindest of feelings toward new men, but assessments as the result or because of deficits are inevitable. I cannot believe that the Council has considered the matter on our side as well as on their. I plead with them to take care let the taint of professionalism touch their efforts. I ask them in the interest of justice to rescue their action. For even if they carry out the plan, the hurt, the fear, the anguish and the deliberate affront to us, the working students, in Monday's Kansas. E. K. C.
