MRS. GRIAIsLEY IS our.
Popular Vocal Teacher Resigns From
the Washburn Faculty.

Mrs. G. P. tsrimsley. wife of Prof.
Grimsley, who recently resigned his
position at Wash burn, has resigned
her position as instructor in vocal
music at Washburn, a position which
she has held with credit for the past
six years.
Mrs. GrimsIey was formerly Miss
Clara Spencer, and became acquaint-
ed with Prof. GrimsIey while both
were connected with the college. Mrs.
Grimsley found the vocal departm ent
of Washburn with sonly fourteen
pupils and in two years she increased
the attendance to fifty. It was largely
through her successful work that the
foundation for the present Washburn
school of fine arts was laid. She was
instrumental in securing the services
of Geo. B. Penny as dean of the
school of fine arts, and has WOrked
in perfect harmony with the other
musical instructors at the college.
Her resignation is said to be due to
the similar action taken by Prof.
Grimsley a few days ago. There is
a good deal of feeling among the stu
dents against the authorities of the
college for causing the loss of Prof.
Grimsley and his wife from the teach
ing force
Mrs. Grimsley will continue to live
in Topeka, and will conduct a private
vocal studio.

Fort Scott at lola.

Sedalia at Pittsburg.
It is being demonstrated every day
that the batters of the Missouri Val
ley League are too heavy for the pitch
ers. It does not take as long to make
q pitcher as it does a catcher, a short
stop or one of the other field positions.
There are whole lot of so-called posi-
tons players the Valley who are just
about ripe for bigger leagues. That is
true of only a few of the pitchers. A
box artist does not have to stay in
the brush leagues long if he is good.
If he does not make the big leagues in
two or three years of tWirling, he gen
orally never makes it. Youth is
pitchers stock in trade, despite the eX-
ceptions like old tCy' Young, Deacon
Phillip and some of the rest. It will
only take a few moments of COMPARE
son between the daily box scores of the
big leagues and the Valley aggregation
to notice how much heavier the smaller
league is hitting. There are probably
25 batters in the Valley league who
always hit the ball. It seems impossi-
BILE for the pitchers to puzzle them.
Great stri1eout games are a rare guam
tity in Shiveley's circuit-there has
been but one this year and that per-
formed by Durbin of Fort Scott
against Topeka in which he famed II
men. He is a home guard and it was
the first game of league ball he had
ever played. To the catchers of the
league belongs more credit than is Civ
en-. Take for instance Armstrong of
Topeka. He knows the weakness of
most of the players on the circuit and
uses his knowledge to advantage. The
same thing is true of Stoner of Sedalia
and several other catchers. But the
sticking in the league Will always be
heavy, because the big leagues are al
ways taking the good slab men. This
years the Browns are after Bob Law
son. the crack twirler of the Goldbugs.
and the youthful pitcher will probably
appear no longer on Thea Valley cir
cult. There are several other Corners
being watched by the big leagues and
some sales are not. unlikely to occur
at the close of the season.
Every team has its slumps. Topeka,
Sedalia and Leavenworth are on the
chutes. Time will come when Sedalia
won't be able to beat Fort Scott, but
It won't mean that the Giants will beat
the Goldburgs out for place. The great
trouble is that knockers get in their
work when the slumps come. That is
their gala time and they make the
most of it. Roasting at the time when
