CHANCELLOR SNOW TALKS.
Ignorance of Rules on Woodruff
Part Responsible for the Play
ing of Walker.

LAWRENCE, KAS.. Nov. 11.-(Special.)
The latest trouble of the Kansas university
football management has been adjusted,
and the Walker incident is closed. This
morning Chancellor Snow gave out the fol-
lowing statement to a Journal representa-
tive:
THE matter of Walkers playing was
given a full hearing at last nights meet
ing. Those present wish to lave the public
informed that the university is strongly OPP
posed to professionalism in athletics, and
regards the playing of Walker as a gross
violation of rules l and 4 of the presidents
agreement, adopted last winter.
Rule l provides hat no one except a
bona fide student of the university with
full work shall be eligible to any athletic
team of the university and rule 4 provides
that no one who is receiving. or has re-
ceived. pay for his athletic services shall be
eligible to any such team Walker would
be barred under either rule.
A to responsibility in the matter. the
committee found that Walker was played
test of both Leland and Mosse, and that
the coach alone is to blame. DIR. Woodruff
very frankly took the entire blame upon
himself and admitted the truth of the
above statement. In explanation of his ac-
ton he stated that he was entirely ignorant
of the existence of the rules in question.
and that, had he been aware of them, he
would not ave thought of playing Walker.
He has now been provided with a copy
of these rules, and they will be lived up to
in the future. | wish the public to under
stand thoroughly that the university au-
thorities discountenance professionalism,
and intend to see to it that the rules adopt
ed will be enforced"
The chancellor then continued: There
has been much trouble in the past because
the university council has taken action in
certain matters and failed to notify the
parties interested. with the result that the
latter have gone ahead, not knowing of the
existence of the rules. This case is an in
stance of this neglect, and the university
officials must and will be more careful in
communicating their action to all parties
involved"
There is no truth in the intimation that
Manager Leland's resignation has been
called for. Manager Leland himself. fear
ing that his position might be misunder-
stood, expressed an intention yesterday of
putting his resignation in the hands of the
proper officials. but since the action of the
council thoroughly exonerates him from
blame, this intention has been withdrawn.

Tommy White. If necessary Hopkins is
willing TO meet White at Chicago.
Sharkey says the statement in an East

wrong. He says he will be %. not p years
old on November 26, and on which date
he hopes to have a double celebration.
The Lenox Club. of New York. will issue
only fifty complimentary tickets for the
Corbett-Sharkey fight on November -. The
club claims to be $1,000 loser on the season.
The prices of admission range from So TO
$50.
George Dixon, who is training at Bay
Ridge with Tom Sharkey. seems to be re-
awakened TO the fact that his recent per-
formances were far from the standard he
established several years ago
AS the date for the big heavyweight con-
test between Corbett and Sharkey draws
near interest in sporting circles over the
match increases daily. Many small bets
have been made at even money, but Cor

LOUISVILLE. KY, Nov. n.-Australian
Jimmy Ryan sent Jim Franey. the Gin
cinnati w~elterweight. on a journey to the
land of Nod tonight in the fourth round
of what was scheduled to be a twenty round
contest. The bout was pulled off by the
Kentucky Athletic Club and a packed
house witnessed 1t. The men split about
even in the first and second rounds. They
fought fiercely in the third. mixing it up
at short range. The Cincinnatian looked
distressed as he took his chair.
In the fourth, Franey started in to force
matters. He swung vicious rights and lefts
at the Australian who conteted himself
with blocking him. The foxy old ring gem

CHICAGO. Nov. n~.-To-morrow on Mar
shall field. the elevens of the universities Of
Wisconsin and Chicago will meet in a con-
test that will go a long way toward set
Ting the Western football championship
The game may also be the last for several
years between the two institutions, as the
intense feeling stirred up by charges and
counter charges of professionalism will
probably result in the severance of athletic
relations: This is more than probable
should Chicago win.
The game will be a unique one, in that
the two best punters in the country.
Herschberger and O'Day, will be pitted
against each other for the first time. The
work of both men during the last two
weeks has been something remarkat0e.
Both men. carefully reserved for his con-
test. are in perfect physical condition, and
the. game Tomorrow may be almost alto
gether a battle between these two.
Among close students of football, Chi
cago is generally looked upon as having
the better chance to win. as both in and
behind the line the Maroons greatly out
weigh the Wisconsin players. The lat
tiers team work is undoubtedly of Il high
order and considered better than that of
last years championship team. The Ma
rooms. on the other hand, are veterans and
have had the benefit of more hard games
this season than their opponents.

university 10 root for them and 300 other

Punts From the Gridiron.

1t is about time for a rumor that
Herschberger will enter some Eastern
college next fall.
PENNSYLVANIA and Harvard are the only
teams In the East to have scored double
figures in every game.
1t has been definitely settled that there
will be no game between Annapolis and
West Point this year.
When the Indians first started to play
they Stunned headgear, pads and shin
guards. but now they use these things.
Jeffreys. one of Harvard's players. whose
hand was lacerated a week ago. is much
worse. He will probably not play again.
According to Charley" Chadwick.
Herschberger the Chicago university
player. Is the greatest punter the game
has produced. He credits Herschberger
with making one punt of seventy yards in
the game with Pennsylvania.
