Hutchinson News: Some of the man
ayers In the Kansas State seem to be
having more trouble from holdouts than
others In looking over the list of con-
tracts sent to President Hostutler, but
three teams have as many as nine men
signed up for the coming season. These
are McPherson, Newton and yelling
ton. Hutchinson and Lyons have a
Few put the other three. Great Bend.
Larned and Arkansas City haven't a
single player so far as the records at
the presidents office show.
But this doesn't necessarily show that
some managers have been active while
otherS are sleeping not by any means.
In may mean a great many things.
First of all, the signed contracts are
first sent to the secretary of the Ma
tional Association. at whose office the
contracts are registered. Then they are
sent to the president of the league.
The list below shows the contracts re-
celved up to date by President Hostut-
leg.
Some managers may be holding back
contracts, not being in a hurry to send
them In. Other managers are exper-
fencing considerable difficulty by re-
serve players held over from last year
holding out for more salary. These
not play anywhere except with the
club which holds the reserve. Their
contracts will be in later. Then some
managers are looking out for better
players while some are signing up a
great many tryouts who are easily Sc
cured at any time of the year.
From the looks Of MCPHERSON Well
ington and Newton, there are no hold
outs in those towns as nearly every
player of last year has signed I'D,
probably doing so as soon as the con-
tract reached them. In other towns,
notably Hutchinson and Lyons, the old
players are slow on signing up and
can be judged from the list of players
on file at the presidents office except
that it shows the names of a good

league this year. Here is the list:

Coach Hernstein-With Haskell In
stitute. 1904; Purdue, 1905: coached Ohio
State university from 1906 to 1909.
There is as usual much gossip about
the coach for next year. The general
trend of this talk seems to be that Bert
Kennedy will be chosen again for K.
us coach. Then again there is some
talk heard that Mosse will be selected
as head coach.
Aside from these, rumor is telling
that Hernstein is regarded favorably.
bernstein coached Haskell in 1904,
when he met with much success and it
is said that his record since leaving
here has been a very good one. Hern-
stein, it is also rumored, has some per-
sonal friends on the board and at the
university, who want him to come TO
Lawrence to coach. 1t has been known
that he has been pulling the wires"
ever since he left here, to get hold of
the Jayhawker team. and while he was
at Haskell, he ofen expressed himself
as anxious to coach K. U. some day.
Members of the board when asked
about the coaching proposition and
about Hernstein in particular, said:
There has been no action taken at all
as vet and there will be none until the
board meets. Never yet has the board
taken up the coaching business at its
meetings, but this will be done at the
next meeting
