Twenty-one out of fifty students when asked if they tho~ght .replacing. Coac.h Camp would be the
answer to the u of L football ills said no. A similar number replied rn the affirmative. T.hose wh~ bacl~ed
Camp claimed he had very little if anything to work with,. while many who answered m the aff1rmahve
wanted to get rid of Camp and everybody else connected With football.
The best support of Frank Camp
seemed to come from those least
acquainted with the team. Among
these were freshmen and former
Municipal College students. How­ever,
one senior who had attended
two football games the entire time
he has been at U of L was bitterly
opposed to the head football
coach. A Speed School student
said, "Sports should be thrown out
completely. I'm tired of paying
$20 a quarter for their tuition." Of
the remainder who were opposed
to Camp, the majority were jun­iors
and seniors who had seen
both home games this year.
Students were also asked if they
thought John Brewer would have
been kicked off the team if he
hadn't received so much bad pub­licity
in connection with his acci­dent.
Fifty-six per cent said no he
wouldn't while thirty-four per
cent claimed he would have been
dropped even if the newspapers
hadn't made such a play of it. One
boy said he had been having a
good year, that he wouldn't have
been dropped.
The next question was: In your
own opinion has the loss of John
Brewer hurt the team? Again it
was a tie in that twenty-one felt
he was a real loss to the team to
Yes No No Opinion

would be the answer to the U of L
football ills?

2. Do you think John Brewer would have 56%

received so much unfavorable pub­licity?

have Brewer gone, while the same
number claimed he din't contri­bute
anything anyway, so he
might as well be off the team.
Forty per cent felt that other
players are breaking training like
Brewer, but haven't been caught
yet. Some of these felt the boys
were entitled to an occasional
beer and rthat if caught by one of
the coaching staff they still wouk;
not be •kicked off the team. When
asked if they thought any boy
caught breaking training should
be kicked off the team, thirteen
per cent said absolutely no, be­cause
if they did we wouldn't
have a football team.
In taking the poll organizations
were avoided and students walk­ing
around the campus or eating
in the snack bar were the ones
questioned.
