What weapon to use in doing the "paid game" to death is one of the, hardest problems to solve. Western conference bodies, long ago started a campaign for clean athletics have found that taking a varsity letter away from an offender does not threaten a penalty dangerous enough to overcome the lure of some easy money.

Perhaps a "dishonorable discharge' 1 from school would make unthoughtful athletes look twice before they took the jump. If any band of students went out and brought disgrace upon their university by some act against the civil or criminal code they would be expelled without second thought. The act of the Illinois and Notre Dame stars, casting a serious blotch on the sportsmanship of their universities, Is just as much a disgrace and warrants a penalty just as heavy.
