KEYS TO OXFORD.
Cecil Rhodes Scholarship to a
BeIoit Boy.
He Is a Sophomore at College
of EmpOria.

Noel Keys. of Beloit, sophomore
at the College of Emporia, was award
ed the Cecil Rhodes scholarship for
Kansas this year, by an examining
committee that gave their decision at
the National hotel late Friday. The
scholarship provides for three year
sojourn at oxford university, England,
with an allowance of $500 a year for
expenses.
Each year one man is appointed
from a Kansas college to the honor of
attending the famous old English in
stitution. 1t has been a custom to
pass the compliment from one Kansas
institution to another. In deciding the
qualifications of an applicant the COM
n1ittee must review practically the
whole school life of the student.
There are five members of the KAN
sas Rhodes scholarship commission.
Chancellor Frank Strong of the state
university, Chief Justice w. A. john
ston and State Superintendent w. D.
Ross are ex-officio members. The Eng
fish commission names two more upon
recommendations from the college pres
idents of the state. The present MEM
bers are President S. E. Price of OF
tawa university and President II. G.
Culbertson of the College of Emporia.
Noel Keys is 10 years of age. He
was graduated from Beloit high
school in 1911, being salutatorian in a
class of thirtythree. During his Sc
nior year in high school he was class
treasurer and assistant editor of the
annual and captain of the winning de-
batting team against Phillipsburg high
school. He was in the high school
orchestra and treasurer of Matthews
band. He played all games of sue
cessful football season, had the lead
ing role in the senior play and was
manager of the play. He had the
highest scholarship average in the
class, counting grades in all subjects.
Noel has been only one year in the
College of Emporia, but already has
the following to his credit:
He played at right tackle on the
second team through every game of
last season, during which they de-
feated four strong teams without haV-
ing their goal line crossed. He started
in football this season but was forced
to drop it early through his decision
to take the Rhodes scholarship exam
nations and the consequent necessity
for reviewing Latin. He is playing
basketball this season. He rows,
swims boxes and plays tennis.
HIS is active in Y. NJ. G. A. and was
4 delegate to the Estes park confer
ence last summer. This year he is a
m ember of the Y. NJ. G. A. cabinet,
leader of a Y. NJ. c. A. mission study
school class. He is first tenor in the
College of Emporia male quartette,
which will tour this winter. Also he
is in the college mixed quartette, and
He was winner of first prize in the
Potter freshman oratorical contest,
and will probably be a member of the
college debating team this year. He

ToPEKAN ILLUSTRATES A BOOK
Lloyd Sargent. Artist in Jones' 'A
Mann in the Making

"A Man in the Making" by Harry
Wagenseller Jones is a tom Sawyer"
sort of book, and deals with the ad-
ventures of a barefoot boy in a
small western town. Ben Tomkins, the
hero, meets with adventures that rival
those or the Three Musketeers. He
is a wideawake American boy. lovable
and essentially human. While he is
gone on a runaway fishing trip, his
fathers store is robbed; the blame
settles upon the small chaps Shout
ders. A train of complicated circum-
stances seem to point indelibly to his
guilt. How he eXculpates himself and
finally proves his innocence is told in
a story full of interest and dash; rob-
bers, bootleggers and kidnapers trail
through the book in thrilling success
sion.
Many of the boys adventures, the
author claims, are taken from his own
experience. Mr.. Jones, now resident
of Independence, was educated in IL
Iinois. "a Man in the Making is his
first literary attempt, though he was for
several years reporter on an Illinois
paper. The book is illustrated by
Lloyd L. Sargent, a Topeka artist;
there are eight full page Illustrations,
and several sketches in pen and ink

Washington, Dec. 21.-One of the stories
in connection with cabinet possibilities
which is going around Washington is
that James c. McReynolds formerly an
assistant attorney general, now practicing
law in New York will be the attorney
general in the Wilson cabinet. Mr.. Nc
Reynolds is a Democrat and is spoken of
as man of great ability and without
political influence. The story has an add
ed interest in the method of it's origin A
few days ago, after Mr.. McReynolds had
finished speech in one of the trust cases
before the United States supreme court,
Attorney General WicSersham Grasped
him by the hand and remarked: y
Il congratulate you ON your speech
and 1 also want to congratulate you as
my successor"
Mr.. McReynolds has had charge of the
coal trust case, and was a special assist
ant on the tobaceo trust case He has
been a lifelong Democrat, and that cou-
pied with his special knowledge of anti
trust work, gives extra weight to the
ca bnet rumor.
However, Mr.. Reynolds is not the only
man who is mentioned as a possibility tor
the attorney generals position at the
cabinet table. Representative Henry OF
Texas, chairman of the house committee
on rules is spoken of with great frequency
He is a Wilson man of unblemished rec
ord in his support of the next president
