CHARLES SUMNER JONES It is with deepest regret that the Bee learned of the death of the Dean of our Medical School, Dr. Charles Sumner Jones. Stu dents and faculty alike will feel in his absence a distinct loss to the guiding forces of the university. Ever striving to advance the best interests of Buffalo, Dr. Jones will remain cherished in the memory of all with whom he came in contact. We extend to his family and close friends our heartfelt sympathy at this time. THE FOOTBALL SITUATION The football season is almost over and we feel that now is the time to consider football for next year. By the letters we have received and which we print in this issue we feel that everyone, students, alumni and faculty alike have been aroused to the point where action is inevitable. In the solution of the problem only a few courses lie open. One is to devise some means by which the team could practice together as a whole and thereby develop some team work. A unit, no matter how inexperienced, practicing together, and scrimmag ing four or five times a week, should win a few games on their schedule. This year members of the team were together only two days a week with only one day for scrimmage. Night pi-ac- tice may have to be restored again to accomplish this. Another course open is the granting of a means for deserving students with athletic ability to attend school, as well as, aiding those students in school who would report to the gridiron if they did not have to work. The alumni could do this by granting loans to such men. Let us not call these loans “Athletic Scholarships.” This term is in bad repute at the present time in this University. According to the Conference rules they are illegal. But, nothing is to stop the Alumni from granting loans or honor loans so that good players can represent our school. Other institutions do it and have good teams as a result. The trouble lies not in the coach, for Russ Garrick is as good a football mentor as there is. Give him good material and a common practice session so that team work can be brought into play and a record of wins will be the result. To abolish football at an institution as large as the University of Buffalo would be a discredit to the students at least. When we consider the fact that Hobart with a registration of something less than three hundred students can produce a team which is able to make us sustain such a severe beating. It is an established fact that something cannot be developed by discontinuance. If football were abolished a great deal of effort would have to be expended to revive it at some time in the future and we would be right back where we started. STUDENT CHEST FUND On Monday the Student Union will institute a drive to collect twenty-five cents from each student in the University. This is a practice which is carried out yearly, and is essential to the well being of the organization. These contributions will be used during the year for such things as decorations at games, posters, and Iris pictures. Other college bodies of a similar nature request a much larger assessment, and it is incumbent upon every student to meet this small obligation in a friendly manner. If you are approached do not hesitate, nor offer excuses, but just reach down and produce twenty-five cents for which you will receive a red S. U. button to show that you are a supporter of this project. This eliminates you from any further monetary subscription dur ing the year, and any spirited member of the institution should not hesitate to give such a small amount to a cause so essential to the life of college activities.

L e tters R e c e iv e d on th e F o o tb a ll S itu a tio n s \To Readers of the BEE: Jn a recent issue of the BEE, a slam taken at the alumni of our Uni versity through the editorial column for knocking our football team. Thanks lo the editor, the alumni will begin once to boost our team, the equal of Yale and the better? of Harvard and Princeton. I’he game between Ohio State and Michigan was mentioned as an ex- ‘^oiple of sportsmanship on the part of 'duinni. If it is true that the alumni of Ohio State after a beating by Michi- split on three solutions of the sit- ^■‘tion, such as an entire shakeup of team, the dismissal of the coach, or Ole dropping of half the players of the 0*am, I will then admit it was poor '‘pDi'tsmanship. But could you blame (Continued on col. 3) The football situation has developed to a point where decisive action of some kind is absolutely imperative. We have not had a team to bo proud of since 1918. In that year our team lost but one game, and that to Cornell. IIo bart was buried under an 80-0 score. It is interesting to remember that at that time there was a Students' Training Corps in operation here. The government paid the tuition of the men enrolled at the University. It was a common affair to have likely football material ordered to report for football practice by th<» commanding officer. Is that the type of incentive the present generation of our students needs? Have they so little spirit that they must be ordered to the gridiron? If this is not the case, what is the trouble?

(Continued from col. 1) those same alumni for “ squawking\ if Ohio State was trimmed by Niagara, squelched by Westminster, over whelmed by Clarkson, trampled upon by St. Lawrence, and used as a prac tice team by Hobart? The alumni do not blame the coach He has done as well if not better than anyone could do under the circum stances. Nor do the alumni hold any thing against the players. They pity those poor souls, who go nut on the field, give their best and then give some more with their bodies nearly mangled because there i.s no one to sub stitute for them. The entire blame lies somew’here else. Where needs not to be told here. When that W'rong is righted and a team fit to represent one of the finest T^niversities of the N a tion, for .such is the University of Buf falo, and such it will ever be, and not a team representable of a backwoods grammer school, then, and then only, will those alumni who have traveled this year and past years to the Syra- cuse-Colgate, the Yale-Princeton, the Arniy-Notre Dame, and other first class games again mingle together once more in the crow'ds at Rotary Field. Last winter crowds packed the Elm wood Music Hall to the doors. Alumni stretched their necks till they wore stiff and yelled for our basketball team till they were hoarse. A great bas ketball team was matched against an other great team. University of Buf falo versus Penn State. How many times this number of people would grace Rotary Field to see that defeat wiped out on the football field? • And yet the University refuses to grant loans to deserving students even when offered at no expense to the Uni- versitj*. AN ARDENT ALUMINUS. I BARRISTER REPORTS III By Lou Blatt Barrister R(*ports (*omes out from hiding this week. It was under tils- guise of Oral Cavity last time if you observed close enough. The Blackstone Society is slowly t a k ing in more members. Some of the new men include Del Hervey, Joe Cain, Harold Teresi, and .Toseph Gerbasi. The Wagner murder trial has caused much talk around these parts. Law students arc trying to hear as much ns they can, if they get in. The first tw’o days of the trial saw many legal scholars clamoring at the big door of the courtroom for admis sion. La.st Tuesday night was “ Legal N i t e \ at the “ Y \ U. B. Club. Mr. Philip Halpern addressed the mombers. Blackstone is changing its meeting place to the Dutch Tavern. Wonder why? Hope i t 's not because Mr. Stan ley Falk is scheduled to talk. So far this year little or nothing has been said of the Law Review. Any news concerning the furtherance of this progress would be gladly welcomed by the classes. Laugh that off! Perhaps, on the day after marks have been given out, you feel blue. LET H. I. PHILLIPS ABE MARTIN LEE PAPE ED SCANLON BRIGGS REG’LAR FELLERS Raise your drooping spirits.

It certainly does boat all to SCO what students will do if there is a lunch in sight. One of our glee- men can tell you all about it. Selwyn B. 8. is pleasing all the profs, with his melodious laugh. Well, it gives him a vacation once in a while so it has its advantages. Metzger and Bozer are the latest cause for gossip. Two little girls out in Tonawanda are the cause of several trips during the last week. It took the police department to locate “ Boze’s girl.” The poor frosh can blame it all on to his roommate. Farrow and Doty have survived the initial cutting and stand a good chance in basketball, keep it up boys. We have got a couple of modest men in our class who would be star guards. Someone ought to toll Tribunella and Margarono that the team needs them; it doosn’t pay to bo too modest. Forum Meeting At PARKSIDE LUTHERAN CHURCH Depew, W a llace and Linden Aves.
