Charge will be made that the laundry provides employment for students, and that such
re will deprive them of it. But why. The
Collegian asks, should the poor $4 fee payer be
asked to supported the proselyted athlete? If
football, for example, is such a wonderful thing,
let football and not the fee payer, keep the imported athletes in college.
Paragraph twelve of the report says that
none of the equipment bought with proceeds
from student fees is used for intercollegiate
