Organize Alumni Support
The section OF the statement out
lining the reform proposals follows
in part:
An important step toward re-
form would be to enlist organized
support Of the alumni. particularly
the monogram men or those playing
professional football. Alumni would
be glad TO help the colleges not only
in the prevention, but in the dis
covery Of professional escapades.
Monogram men could be depend
ed on for their share in this service
TO their alma mater. I feel certain
they would sign an agreement; at
least have an understanding never

from a college are used. It might
be worth while 10 extend TO them
the same penalty recommended for
the men In coliege-erasure of their
names from the monogram.

IF all colleges agree or a definite

be returned TO the only legitimate
basis on which they can hope un-

There are two methods which
might help prevent professionals
from entering college The first
would be uniform policy of refus-

then could be secured that the men
would not participate i'm profession

understanding that violation of the
pledge would be cause for dis
honorable dismissal
Finally before the student is
given a monogram, promise could
be exacted that after graduation he
will neither play with nor counter

WASHINGTON. Feb 4-Repub-
lican house leaders are understood
virtually 10 have abandoned the idea
of financing the soldiers bonus by
means of a general sales tax. a pro-
gram which has been freely dis
cussed at the capitol.

Favor Using Debt Proceeds
Developments at further hearings
today before the house ways and
means committee disclosed that in
spite of Sec'y Melons opposition to
the plan a number of the majority
members favor the use Of part Of the

debt in helping 10 finance the ad-
iusted compensation.
They believe that this would meet
with greater measure of public
approval than would a program JIM

amount by means of special taxes.
Arguments ON both sides of the
question were heard by the commit

that such Use of the money would

holders OF Liberty bonds who. he

that with this double guarantee the
