The prospects are that the college
baseball season in Kansas for 1902 Will
be a particularly successful one, from
an athletic standpoint as the larger
colleges have all arranged for even
more than the usual number of games
Nearly all the teams win make trips
outside the state, and with the Sched-
ule as now arranged all the larger col
leges in Kansas will send their repre-
sentatives to the diamond to compete
for honors. The teams that will visit
Kansas are to come from Missouri
university, Nebraska university, Kan
sas City Athletic club and Highland
Park college of Des Moines. The High
land Park team made a tour of Kan
sas last season and left an impression
that has not been forgotten. 1t was
without doubt the strongest baseball
team that has played in the state since
the days of the league. Cyclone
Thompson was their star pitcher.
Manager Richie of the Washburn
team says he has not made up his list
of games, and is unable to give any
definite Information as to what the
Washburn team will do.
