WINTERS IS A BUSY MAN
Repairs to Street Car Tracks
The Reason.

Patrolman Scott Winters is very
busy at the corner of Eighth and Main
streets. The reason is obvious. for
the Richmond street and interurban
railway company is tearing up its
tracks at that point for re-adjust-
ment. The officials in charge of the
work are endeavoring to dispense with
as much interference with traffic as
possible but Winters has everything
that he can do to keep both pedestrians
and vehicles moving in the right di-
rection.

A PROTEST FROM OTTAWA.
Football Managers Question the Eligl-
bility of Medic Players

Kansas City, Oct. 16.-Kansas City
appears TO be the prize hoodoo city
this season as far as football games
are concerned. In addition to the in
dications that the annual Missouri
Kansas game will not be held here the
Medic game scheduled for Monday may
be called off. Eligibility of players is
the rock on which the arrangements of
the schools threaten to split. Ottawa
last night returned. unsigned, to Man
ager Oechsli of the Medics the contract
for the game. Ottawa objected to the
presence of Web Smith and Thrailkill
in the Medic lineup because the men
were members of the K. G. A. G. squad
last year. They had an additional OBJ
lection to Smiths playing, as he is
coach of the Medic team.
Manager Oechsli Immediately called
up Coach Brumage at Ottawa on the
telephone but failed to reach any
agreement BY the kansas college
conference rules schools in the confer
ence are prohibited from playing against
teams that use professional players.
professional is defined as a PLAYER
who has received money for his ath-
lete knowledge. Ottawa contends that
the protested players were paid for
their work with the K. c.. A. c., team
and that Smith is receiving pay for
coaching this season.
Mondays game was originally sche-
duled for October l and contract en-
tered into, but at Ottawa's request the
game was postponed until the later
date This late protest puts the Medic
manager in an awkward position, as
Mondays game has been extensively
advertised If the managers are unable
to reach an agreement today Oechsll
will attempt to fill in the date with
a game with the Kansas .Aggtes, War
rensburg Normal or William Jewell. He
received an offer several days ago for
game with the Aggies for next 9Satur-
day He turned it down at the time. as
he, did not care to risk a SATURDAYS

Robley D. Evans, commander-in-chief
of the Atlantic fleet, arrived in Wash

department. Secretary Metcalf being
temporarily confined to his home by a
slight ailment, the admiral spent some
time in consultation with Acting Sec
rotary Newberry. The admiral was
looking in excellent physical condition
and was disposed to look upon retire
ment as a joke. The purpose of his
visit to Washington he said was to
spend about week or ten days in con-
department in relation to the approa ch-
ing voyage of his great fleet. Much re-
mains to be done to prepare the ships
for the cruise, not the least of which
is the change in the personnel of some
of the officers of the fleet below the
grade of captain, in conformity with
the decision of the navigation bureau to
limit to a year and a half the tour OF
duty of such officers. "E
In the course of the progress of the
work now going on upon the ships In
the various navy yards, it is also neces-

Admiral Evans decided
to spend some time at the department.

Stubs grasped Chappelle's hand while
the expansive smile for which he is
famous spread over his placid features.
1T Is all plain to me now said the

I see why it is. He comes down to
