Coach Mclean Will Sacrifice Weight
for Swiftness at Missouri.

Columbia, Mo, Sept 16.-The football
season was formally opened Tuesday
when Director Hetherington and Coach
Mclean called the entire squad together
and gave them instructions for the
season.
Speed and more speed" are his words
when the teams are going through
plays. Everything will be sacrinced to
speed. While the coach desires good
weight, he prefers speed and alertness
When shown the report from Kansas
that Coach Weeks was using 200-pound
men back of the line he simply said that
there were two ways of playing the
game, one to use heavy men and play
slow, or use lighter men and play fast.
He prefers speed.
The management has been unsuc-
cessful so far in arranging for games
before the regular schedule so it is like
~ that the Tigers first opponents will
be the School of Mines.

himself to be a football player of no or
binary class in the practice today. He
was fast on his feet, worked diligently
and displayed a great knowledge of the
game. In the lineup Stage played him
at right tackle. He weighs 176 pounds,

Anyone who has been losing flesh. or
who has always been too thin, should

Attorney General Coleman has re-
ceived word from the clerk of the United
States supreme court that the Smiley
grain trust case. which involves the
validity of the antitrust law of Kansas,
will probably be set for hearing the lat

at that time a decision may be reached
a month later, or it may go over longer
The decision in the case will be await
ed with a great deal of interest, for upon
it will probably hinge the prosecution
of the coal trust in Kansas. If the
United States supreme court upholds
the antitrust law there is no reason
why a coal trust should be permitted in
any part of the state.

with these for several months, we tried

means Of advance primary elections.
In the senate, from those who oppose
this sweeping form of primary cleo
tons, will come plan (by amendment
to give the people a chance to vote
whether they desire to have it apply to
all offices, including United States
senator, after trying it between now
and the fall of 1904 as county meas
ure.
Senate Wants Modification.
One gentleman thus explains the
plan: 1--WE will accept the provisions
of the assembly bill just as they stand,
and have it 80 into force at once so
far as municipal and county officers
are concerned, and, in the general
election of 1904, allow the people of
the state by vote to decide whether
they will have it apply thereafter to
legislators, state officers, congressman
and senators. 1t will, we believe, be
considered fair compromise. Not the
most enthusiastic advocate of primary
election reform has believed the senate
would accept the assembly bill just as
it is; but the compromise contem-
plated comes pretty close to such ac-
ceptance."
