WEEKS 10 QUIT K. Q.
Bert Kennedy Likely to Be the Next
Football Coach.


Lawrence, Kan. June Manager
Plank has announced that Boss
Weeks will not return to coach the
Kansas football team next fall There
has been some talk of his not coming
back for some time, but nothing def
mite was known until today. Weeks
was under contract to coach here next
year unless Michigan should want him
or he should decide to go into some
business which would not permit of
his being away. It is understood that
Mr.. Weeks will go into business and
hence cannot come. This is disap-
pointing news to many here for he
did very fine work as coach last fall
and with practically the same team
back this fall he could take I'D the
work where he left it last fall and K
U. might be almost positive of having
a winning team
1t is altogether probable that Bert
Kennedy, the old K. u. quarterback
who coached Washburn so success
fully last season. will pilot the Jay
hawlkers next fall. Kennedy made a
great reputation as a player here and
at Pennsylvania and he has met with
first class success as a coach He is
we'll known and very much liked at
Lawrence, where he now resides. Mr..
Kennedy was intending to coach at
Washburn again next season, but he
would prefer to have charge of the
game at his alma mater and, while no
contract has been signed, it will I'M
doubtedly be attended to shortly.

Has Big Crop of Gooseberries.

Patrick Mackey's crop of gooseber-
ries, which are the biggest in this part
of the country, is maturing. Mr.
Mackey says a peculiar thing about
gooseberries in the west is that they
do not mature to a dead ripeness, as
they do in the east. He says this is
the reason they are sour. He says
some popularity of the climate causes
the goOseberries to rot before they
reach perfect maturity. He re-
members a certain variety of goose
berries which fully ripened in the west
but the plants did not thrive, and they
are no longer grown.-Atchison
