Outstanding developments In the newspapermen's athletic war yesterday, in addition to the usual exchange of secret long distance telephone conversations, were as follows:
1.	Dean Putnam’s telegram from the University of California,
which read:
We regret exceedingly the newspaper controversy now being carried on over alleged professionalism. Please regard statements made by Ihe editor of the student paper or alleged by the press to have been made by Individuals hero as having no official authorization. It ls the practice of the administration not to Interfere with editorial policy of student papers ln view of the publicity given to alleged subsidization of athletes In conference institutions. I believe It would be best for all concerned to make thorough investigations of their own Institutions. The University of California wishes to place Itself on record as Intending to do this and trusts that other members of the conference will cooperate with It.
2.	The reply of Hugh C. Willett, faculty athletic representative of Ihe University of Southern California to Dean Putnam:
Let me thank you for your message. It will go a long way towards re-establishing our friendly feeling for California which has been sadly shaken by Ihe events of Ihe pant week. We regret that conditions make possible thn circulation of unofllclai and baseless accusations against Southern California and the misrepresentation of what we believe to be the true spirit of your university. Let me assure you that we shall continue our earnest efforts to maintain athletics at Southern California on a true amateur basis and In strict conformity to the letter and spirit of the rules of tho Pacific Coast conference and the triangular agreement.
3.	The telegram from L. Stern Altshuler, president of the Associated Students of the University of California, to Lewis Gough, president of the Associated Students of S. C.:
At a special meeting of the executive committee of the Associated Students of the University of California held today, unanimous vote of censure was placed upon JCdltor Arthur M. Arlett of the Dally Californian for the editorial he has recently written, the subject matter of which was ln no way sanctioned by the executive committee of the Associated Students.
4.	The motion passed, after heated discussion, by the S. C. Legislative council last night:
I move thnt this Legislative council, in regular session, and as representative of the student body of the University of Southern California, officially accept the explanation and apology of the student executive committee of the University of California, in which It Btates that It has reprimanded Arthur M. Arlett and that his editorials which appeared In the Dally Californian were unauthorized and not representative of tho University of California. We recognize this as the only official action of the University of California student body since the opening of the athletic controversy.
This motion closes the controversy, as far as the students of Southern California are officially concerned. Pure tact causes me to refrain from saying whether or not I consider the two messages fiom the North as sufficient apologies. Funny. Isn’t lt?
