Walter Caldwell, Washburn FulIback,
Who VIII Play Saturday.

Snatdnger, the 215 pound man who
has been playing subcenter, is likely
10 hold down a permanent job at this
position the rest of the season. He
showed I'D well against the Manhat-
tan team last Saturday. Platt, who
has been at CENTER will be used at
guard and Sharp and Hill viii be the
tackles. Brown and Haughey viii be
at their usual places of guard and
end. The back6eld viii be composed
of Millices Caldwell and White This
is the lineup which viii probably go
into the game against Ottawa. 1t viii
be given a trial in this game, and if it
seems effective it may be used the
rest of the season.
The re-entrance of Jimmy Stewart
into the game viii assure WaShburn
OF FIRST class handling on the field.
Stewart knows where to hit an Op-
posing team on offense, and that is a
big part of the quarterbaek's business.
Last year Stewart was not in condition
for good work on account of his in
Iured ankle. This year ne has been
at work with a telephone gang all
summer, and is hard and fit for work
on the gridirOn,
1t rather looks as though the changes
in the Washburn lineup ought to be
productive of good results. Williams
change TO the end is the most radical
departure from former conditions It is
the first time he has ever played this
position He certainly viii do well, and
it may be that his presence at end is
what is needed to give the Washburn
backdeld q chance to do business.
Those who saw the game at Manhat-
tan last Saturday state that Manhattan
made nearly all its gains through Tees
end Tice played hard football, and re-
peatedly tackled the man with the ball
back OF the line, but he was not heavy
enough to bring him down without a
gain. Williams can be depended upon
TO get what ne goes after when it comes
to taclzling. and he probably carries
more weight than any other end man
he is likely to meet.
The new Washburn lineup will add
considerable interest to the Ottawa
game next Saturday. There are some
who think that Ottawa viii give Wash
burn hard struggle. The Ottawa man
ager writes that his team has strength
ened its line considerably since the last
game, and is expecting to give the To-
peka. team a hard afternoons work.
Washburn has waived the Freshman
rule for the Ottawa university game
Saturday, in order to enable the Bap-
fist school to put in some good material
which would otherwise be ineligible The
Ottawa team is not very strong this
year, and has been repeatedly beaten by
teams which have in their turn been de
1eated by Washburn. So it looks as
though unless something is done. the
Ottawa. team viii not have much show.
BY allowing Freshmen to play. it is ex-
pected that Ottawa viii give the wash
burn team a hard practice game, though
&c is not likely that Washburn win be
defeated.
ottawa has also allowed Washburn to
use Caldwell at fullbaek, in order to

CROSSED HIS PATH.
Offending Chauffeur Caused President
to Make New Civil Service Rule.

Washington, Oct 18.-While mem
bers of the cabinet frequently have
discussed such an amendment to the
civil service rules as was authorized
yesterday, the subject was brought di-
rectly to the attention of President
Roosevelt recently by the misconduct
of a chauffeur of one of the govern
ment automobiles. The driver of the
automobile piloted his machine di-
rectly in front of the presidents car
riage and seemed to take delight in
cutting him out of the road.
When the president learned who
the chauffeur was he said he ought to
be discharged as incapable OF operat-
ing the machine. The subject was
pressed by members of the cabinet
and the decision was reached to make
the amendment to the civil service
rules in order that misconduct of a
government employe might be made

SHAW SEES way.
Plan to Reimburse Miss Roosevelt for
Duty She VIII Pay.

Chicago. oct 18.-A dispatch to the
Tribune from Washington says;
Secretary Shaw said yesterday an
offer win be made to the president to
seek authority from congress to re
fund TO Miss Alice Roosevelt whatever
money may be collected from her in
the way of duties when she returns
This course is prompted by what he
considers an injustice Of the law in
her special case. He points out that
most Of the presents were not only not
solicited, but she had no desire to re-
ceive them. She was compelled to do
So however, or else offend those who
offered them. and thus make enemies
for her country.
Secretary Shaw has found it posi-
bic to do an act of justice to the Jap
anese government and waive the pay
ment of duties upon presents which
that government has decided to confer
upon its subjects in the United States
in recognition of their loyalty in rem
dering financial assistance during the

BLUE GETS SHAKE up.
Coach Outland Makes Radical
Changes in Lineup.

Coach Outland of the Washburn
team gave his bunch of players a
shaking up Tuesday night the result
OF which viii be awaited with great
interest. The kind of a defensive
game Washburn has been playing was
responsible for the changes. Tt was a
desperate situation and radical meas
ures we've necessary.
The experience of the team in the
game at Manhattan showed that Eldon
Tice is too light for effective work at
end against a. heavy team, and in the
scrimmage last night, Williams was
shifted to end. Jimmy Stewart quar-
terback of last years team, who is in
medical school this year. and has
been coming out for practice for sew
eral weeks went to quarter in place
of the younger Tice. Quarterback
Tice is playing q good game but he
hasn't been in the game nearly as
long as Stewart, and does not know
all there is to know about football
strategy.
