X. Z. AGAINST ST. LOUIS.
BATTLING Game Is Looked for on Next
Saturday.

Lawrence. Kan, Oct. 30.-The kan
sas university football team on next
Saturday tackles St. Louis university
an eleven which so far this season has
scored 253 points while not a single
point has been made against it. On last
Saturday the st. Louis team scored u
touchdowns on the Missouri School of
Mines eleven and kicked every goal but
one, making a total of II points. Just
what such a scoring team will be able
to do with the strong Jayhawkers re-
mains to be seen. The question every
body here is asking is Can Kansas de-
The K. .. squad 20 strong will leave
here Friday evening, and from Kansas
City that night will have a special Pull
man over the Wabash. All the players
except Coulter will be in good shape by
Saturday Coulter received badly
bruised shoulder in the Colorado game
and will be unable to play for two or
three weeks. .1H
The students and alumni of st. Louis
university express the utmost conf
fldence in Coach Cochems' ability to
send his men through the. contest to
decisive victory Here is some COM
ment on the game from the Globe-
Democrat:
That ST. Louis will emerge triun-
plant from the test is the confident
belief of the followers of the teams
fortunes since the opening of the sea-
son, but Kansas comes to St. Louis with
a strong team, a team which win aver
age almost the same in point of weight
as the local university eleven. But it is
questionable whether Kansas will be a
match for the st. Louis team. St. Louis
has developed an offense that but few
teams of the country would be able to
bring to a stop while its defense Is
improving with every days work. The
additfoni of. Bile French to the St
Louis line has worked wonders IL
strengthening the forwards of the team.
Kansas possesses in. Capt. Donald one
of the most valuable men in the west.
Playing at left tackle. his weight of 220
pounds and. his great strength make
him a magnificent ground gamer on the
offensive and an almost sure breaker
up of Interference and delays which
come around the end of the line. He
IS supported by a line which averages
over 1876 pounds, with a 1876 pound CEN
ter and a back field which averages
170 pounds at the least.
st. Louis universities strength lies in
the individual excellence of the mem
bers of the team which, with Cochems'
painstaking work. has developed into
machine which is almost perfect in
all its workings.

Il can recall no time" said Capt.
Thomas Hays. bond clerk in the office
of the state superintendent of educa-
ton, when the school districts of the
state, and especially of western Kan
sas, were sending in so many bonds
for registration. It means that the
people are using some of the surplus
to build school houses. Every bond
issue which is offered here means an
other school house."
During the twelve months ending
with October. the state school fund
commissioners have been offered .167
different issues of Kansas school dis
trict bonds. The law requires that
every bond issue shall be offered to
the school fund commissioners, so this
number of issues represents pretty
accurately the number of new school
houses constructed in the state during
the past year. The amount expended
for new school houses is close to
100000.
The bond issues for the purpose of
building school houses vary from $500
to $4,000 each, and some of the issues
offered by the larger cities and towns
go far above the $4,000 mark. But
for the average country school district
$4,000 is about the limit. The school
district bond issue is limited to 6 per
cent of the assessed valuation of the
property in the district. and this pro-
vision makes school district bonds
"gilt- edged" security. Besides that all
school district bonds bear 4 4 or 5
per cent. which is rather above the
usual rate for bonds.

where school houses are being built,

Though the preceding is a complete
list of the bonds purchased, aggregat-
ing So, 1924, it is not a complete list of
ali the school district bonds offered to
the state school fund commissioners.
The school fund commissioners have
been compelled to reject large NUM-
Der of issues for want Of funds. Capt
Hays says in speaking Of the shortage
of funds with which to make bond
purchases:
THE only explanation I know OF Why
the funds of the state available for the
purchase of bonds are so limited Is
that a good many Of the bonds which
the school fund already holds have been
refunded recently instead of being paid
off in cash. The funds of the board
have therefore not been released at the
usual rate and we have been unable to
take on new issues.
1.-THE school fund commissioners con-
slider the school district bonds the best
that can be bought. Nearly all of them
pay 3 per cent, except some very large
issues, which we get for AZ per cent.
Sometimes school districts send IN their
bonds offering as high as per cent
Not very long ago. c. A. Smith. clerk
of district "A, WOodson county. sent IN
81 200 worth of school district bonds,
and offered to pay z per cent The
bonds were approved and purchased by
the hoard but we voluntarily cut the
rate down to 3 per cent. 1t simply IL
Illustrates how careless or ignorant some
school district officers are in regard to
the provision Of the law. and the usual
rate for district bonds
