Hauser Brothers Won't Play
Football at Washburn.
Superintendent Peairs Knew
What He Was Talking About.
FIRST GAME SATURDAY
Followers of Blue Will Meet
Kansas City Medics.
Il. q. Will Also Play Their
Initial Game.

! Superintendent Peairs of Haskell
seems to have made good his bluff ir
regard to the three Indian football
players who wanted to come to Wash
burn The Wasnburn management has
received word that Emil and Pete
Hauser have given up the idea of COM
ing to Washburn. Falls may come, but
it is not likely.
Pete Hauser will play on the Haskell
| football team this fall, but it is stated
that Emil Hauser will not take part in
athletics at the Indian school. Emil
Hauser is the one of the trio who was
especially desired by Washburn. He is
a big man, and would have undoubted-
ly made first class tackle or guard for
the Wasnburn team. Falls is a lighter
man, and played last year with the
Lawrence high school.
Manager Leach returned today from
a trip to St Marys, and reports that
the st. Marys football team this season
promises to be a very strong aggrega-
ton, much more formidable than for a
good many years past. The Catholics
have lot of heavy material in school,
and under the mana cement of Coach
Quigley expect to make a hard fight
for the front rank in the football stand
ing.
On Saturday the season will open
in Topeka with a game between Wash
burn and the Kansas City Medics. and
in Lawrence with a game between K
L. and the College of Emporia. Each
of these games will give a line on
what may be expected of the coming
season. Both Washburn and K. U.
should win their games but large
scores in the first game of the season
often do not materialiZe. The coaches
are trying out new men and do not
try to run up a large bunch of touch
downs.
The College of EmDoria exnects +o
have a strong team. this fall. Eight of
last years eleven are trying for their
old positions. They are: Will Gull
bertson, halfback; Lamar and Lehm-
Everitt, center; Captain Simpson, the
220-pound tackle, and HaIfback Lou
than, who made a number of spectac-
ular end runs on last years team.
Among the most promising of the
new men are Nicol of Clay Center, a
cousin of Coach Nicol; Bullock of
Glasco; Thompson and Kerk of Os-
hone. Kan; Wilson of Waukeenev:
Wantland of Purcell, 1. T., and Marble
of Hutchinson.
Washburn's work is being hampered
by the non-arrival of the new supply of
football suits and equipment The new
goods were shipped from Chicago We'd
neSday, and until their arrival, it viii
be impossible for the teams to do
much scrimmage work.
