Editorial:
our only recourse
What happens if thc students don't
approve or like the choice of person for
head football coach?
The only possible answer, under thc
circumstances, is that thc students arc
going to have to grin and bear it. and
do their utmost to see that the student
association as a whole is behind the ath¬
letic department, thc coaching staff, and
thc team.
Naturally everyone will be pleased if
the coach has a big name, doesn't want
much moncv and can produce a victor¬
ious ball club.
But . . . under thc present situation,
thc coach obtained probably will not
have a big name, he won't get any more
money than his teaching position allows
and he won't produce a victorious h.ill
club in 1950.
Some people argue that a big name
coach is not necessary. Perhaps not, but
it sure would help. Other students arc
going around trying to find wvs to give
the coach another title and thereby a
little more cash under the tabic. (We
feel that this will not and should not be
done under any circumstance*.
One of the reasons wc can expect a
losing team is the inability and in.utivitv
of the alumni and their officers.
The alumni likes to take credit for ob¬
taining thc necessary top material to pro-
ducc a winning team. What have they
done? That's a good question. Wo would
like to call upon thc Executive Secretary
of thc Alumni Association John Vocncs
for a written answer that "can be ptib-
Our immediate answer to the ques¬
tion, however, is NOTHING. Granted
that some of the members have done
something individually, what'have they

ever done as a unit? In fact, under thc
present setup thc alumni arc so inactive
that thev are about to go out ol business
from lack of funds. (These funds arc
supposed to come from dues).
This all brings us back to what happens
when thc new coach is named. There will,
of course, be banquets and speeches, but
how is a new coach going to know if the
students are behind him? This is easily
answered — by thc spirit shown at the
first football game, win or lose, and at
thc following games, win or lose!
