days is the THANKSGIVING game with Mis-
souri,. which Is always a hard one. In
the last six years the Jayhawkers have
hoisted the Tigers tail four times and tied
Il twice. This year the tribe Of Kennedy
are already really scared about the Mis-
souri, proposition as Monilow has almost
twice as much foot BAN material eligible
this year as he has had Tor the last two
seasons Ii has not yet been decided
where the Missouri game will be played.
However, 1t Is very probable that salts
factory arrangements will be made and
Kansas City will get the annual Thanks
giving battle that ST. Joseph stepped in and
took from it last year.
Kennedy Will have in the coaching de-
partment this year the assistance Of
Dorald. who held the left tackle berth In
every game for four years straight and
captained the O6 team and was assistant
coach last year. Captain Rouse of last
years team will return to assist Kennedy.
II. a. Loses Five Veterans.
The sprinR practice served to give Ken
ncdy an idea Of what he could count on
from last years freshmen team to fiji
the vacancies left in the ranks of the
regulars. The Jayhawker team will be
much weakened this year by the loss Of
five of its veteran players. Captain Rouse
and White at ends, Milton at center and
Augney at quarter. who has generated the
team for the last two years and who was
one of the headiest quarters in the w,<t.
Foster, the star kicker, whose bootiug
ability won the Missouri game at st. Joseph
last Thanksgiving and who saved the Ne
braska game two years ago with a 26j-yard
punt, graduated last year and his place
at left half will be hard to fill. Six of
last years regulars will be back. They
are Pat" Crowell, right tackle; Bill
Caldwell, left tackle; ''Swede" Carlson
right guard. Tub Reed. left guard
"Sprouty' Porter. right hslfbsck, and
Buck Rice. fullback. Carlson was tried
out at center in several games last year
and he win probably be shifted to that
position permanently. His position at right
guard will be filled by Smith, Gurley or
Wood, all 2%1O-pound fellows. Carl Pleasant,
a X man Of 'O5. who was kept out of the
game last year on account of sickness
Will be back and fill his old place at right
end. Priest or Houghton will probably
take care of the other end. Several men
have signed up TO try out for left half.
but none so far look like very fast stock.
Kennedy is worried most over the quarter
back vacancy. Steele. Hennessy and john
son are the most liely looking candidates.
but more of these have the experience or
head TO direct their against
such teams as Iowa and Nebraska. An
other thing much on Kennedy's mind is
whose foot he can educate 90 take the
place Of Fosters.

~ HOUBD bonus-giving during cham
plonship races be permitted? That Ia
a question worth some consideration
~ by the base ball solons this winter.
1t has been brought home to certain
fans and magnates Of late with a force
that suggests the wisdom Of careful
thought. There Is ground for the argument
that the practice. II not vicious in itself.
leads to evil results. Bonus-giving may
be more nearly iustlfiable when practlced
in ante or post-staIon games, such as the
worlds series, bat such a custom should
not DO permitted during the regular sched-
ule 81 3 championship season. II every
ball player would go into the game de-
termined to exhaust his efforts to win
from the first to the last OF the season,
regardless of influences about him. then
bonus giving might not be so bad, but still
II would not be right. Tho fact is, how
ever, that ball players, being human, are
much like men In other walks Of life and
therefore bonus-giving Is an evil practice
and should not be permitted with reference
to a single game or series Of games played
under the regular season schedule. For
example, let two-well matched teams come
up to the final series of the season which
lie to determine the pennant winner, and

ers a reward Of a certain amount Of money
Il they win the series, and suppose the
owner of the rival team does not see fit
TO make a similar offer to his players,
and suppose feeling already between the
latter manager and his men Is not the
best. What is likely to be the result? 1t
requires no specious pleading to decide It.
The manager who refused to offer his
team a bonus may be called parsimonious
and the other man generous, and maybe
these terms fit exactly. No matter, the
fact is when those players signed their
contracts at the first OF the season they
pledged and obligated themselves to give
their employer the best that was in them,
and that obligation is just as binding at
the latter end of the season as II was at
the beginning. The fact that another man.
ager saw fit to bait his men with a bonus
has no relation whatever to the terms of
agreement existing between the rival team
and its manager. That team, II it did the
square thing, would play the best ball
of which II was capable to the very last
bonus or no bonus. Not only the team
owner. but the patron Of the game, the
man who pays his good money and sup
ports the team and the game morally and
financially, Is entitled to some considera-
lion along these lines. He is entitled to
the worth of his money and he Is cheated
out of the worth Of his money whenever
a PLAYER or a team comes short OF doing
the best 1t can. It's all right If a man.
neer or owner wants to make his team q
present at the end of the season, but &c
hold out to 1t a reward, or bonus. is wrong

Highlander faced this young Hercules and
faced him in vain so far as runs We're

they are there because Of Acknowledgement

1t looks more and more as II the Giants
would win the National league p%ennant.
The Giants have made a most remarkable
light. But when the season is over a COOL
dispassionate view of the year will disclose
as the most remarkable achievement Of the
National league or any other league the
standing OF Chicago. For half the season
the Cubs had half their regulars in the
hospital and for the entire season some of
them have been crippled. AT one time
Chance, Evers. steinfeldt, ScheckRrd,
Schultz. Slagle. Brown, Killing and overall
were out of the game. In fact only two
regulars were In the game for a long
time. Is there another team I'm any league
that could have stayed anywhere near
the top under such conditions? Certainly
New York could not have done It, nor
Pittsburg. The amazing wonder is, not
that the Cubs have lost their hold on first
place. but that they have managed to hold
onto the first division.

onto the first division.
Ducky Holmes is easily entitled TO the
hoLor Of being the best manager in the
Western league. At least he got the re-
suits for witch the others sought. Holmes
set an example which the other managers
might with profit follow: he started IN at
the outset to "oan" every man who re-
fused to give him all he had. Sioux City
has no kick coming on Holmes. The town
finished last in the league of 1897. When
Holmes went there he promised the fans
the team would not finish last in 1905. He
did not say where Il would finish, but went
81 and landed the pennant, which omahs
could have tucked away In It's vest pocket
two months ago had the team worked with
the same zeal that animated the Sioux.
