More recent than the article OF
Dean Roe is series of papers in the
New York Evening Post by Mr.. John
Palmer Gavit. in which the writer
publishes his conclusions after uues-
tioning a great number of graduates
and undergraduates concerning what
was the most important thing they
had acquired, or were acquiring, at
colleges. Mr.. Gavit says that with
portion of exceptions so small as
to be almost negligible, the list of ad-
vantages cited had to do with pure
ly social relationships and expert
ences," and that he could count on
his fingers "the men who even men
toned the studies they pursued, or
any purely intellectual activity in
which they engaged" He says had
he even found many undergraduates
whose chief concern in the president,
dean and faculty was to outwit them
and "beat the SYSTEM" not so much
by breaking rules of conduct without
detection and by maintaining the low
est possible minimum of grades that
would keep them out of trouble.
The Springfield Republican, COM
menting upon the facts presented,
says:
''Mr. Gavit's indictment will proba-
bly, not be seriously challenged save
by those who think that he has given
insufficient attention to the minority
who really take advantage of their
opportunities. Some, too, believe
that the amiable drifting of the past
is being checked by the adoption of
a better organized curriculum and
by the exaction of higher standards.
But few will deny that trustees and
faculties have it in their power to
correct still further the defects Of the
college. Alumni may be ccr,c,scent

The SoIons didn't furnish all of the

the booster day attraction yesterday
afternoon. The SolOns trimmed their
Bartlesville opponents at the rate Of

The trouble started in the first half
OF the second inning After Cashion

Pettigrew singled to right and with
Wiley on third. Zunigha pumped enc
into right field which had all the ear
marks of hit. Yendes came over
fast, however, and after catching the
bah with one hand shot it to Book

could get back to the bag. The side

Two umpires were working in the

Doyle repeated to the new jumps part
of what the Bartlesville manager had

Pettigrew to separate himself from

teams to switch places in the standing
column, Topeka going to the top of

dropping to sixth place. If Barney

first division.

II IS TUG That the attendance on
some previous occasions this year has
been maguified by over enthusiastic
reports. Most persons yesterday esti-
mated the crowd at $500 but Cooley
says the grandstand can be damned to
every nook and corner and a careful
count won't reveal more than 1900 or
1900 people.
The Topeka state journal. [volume] (Topeka, Kansas) 1892-1980, 1922-06-16

Which will be sufficient to meet tbs
players salaries due today, and give
the team carfare to get out of town
tonight. It won't get the club entirely
out of debt but it enable Topeka to
remain in the league until the first OF
the month, at least.

Unless the hostilities which broke
yesterday result in murder, today. the
