FRANK QUITS K. u.
MinnesOtan Will Not Work I'm.
der Coach MOsSe.
Efforts of X. q. Athletic Board
Are Futile.

Lawrence, Kan, Jan. 17.-Leonard
Frank will not be assistant coach at
Kansas university next fall.
The Minnesota star made this plain
in statement in which he said he
could not remain at K U in similar
position to the one held the past sea-
son. Following is the statement:
Il positively have not entered into
any agreement for next season. There
was a conference in the office of DR..
Naismith. Following this conference
DR.. Naisnith offered me a position for
next season. The salary was to be the
same and L was to be under Coach
Mosse to obey his instructions. I re-
fused the offer then, and shall not
consider such an offer at any future
time. I have some good offers from
other schools and 1 hope to land a
good place for next season."
At the conference which was at
tended by DR.. Naismith, head of the
department of athletics; Manager
Hamilton and Coach Mosse, it was
agreed that there should be no change
in the coaching staff next season and
that Leonard Frank was to be retain
ed at K. U.
This. conference was called to con-
slider the petition of the students who
asked that Frank be retained next
season. The petition originally was
given to the regents of the university,
but that body referred it to the ath-
letic department for adjustment. The
three men called into the conference
sought to straighten matters and
satisfy the petitioners by making no
changes.

"KANTS" AFTER JACK
Negro Says Dead Men Played About
His Cell.

Chicago. Jan. 17.-Jack Johnson,
suffering from an old fashioned case
of "hants,'' limped into the office of
Charles F. Dewoody, of the federal
department of justice, and complained
bitterly because he was detained in
one of the death cells at the county
Jail Tuesday night after his return
from Battle Creek, Mich.
The negro swore 'spooks" made
merry around his cell all night, some
of them dancing about the floor and
others amusing themselves by tapping
on the outside of the iron cage.
"I am all bunged up" johnson said.
For the first time in my. life. I'm
suffering from a weak back. That
due to my thrashing around all night
when the 'spooks were bothering me:

WHO WILL 1T Be?
No One Knows Who VIII Lead
Wichita Team.
Westerzil May Go Back to HoI-
lands Payroll.

| Wichita Kan, JAN ia thing OF
much concern in baseball circles in Wich-
! ita is, how much longer will the club wait
to secure a manager for the season OF 1913
/ In justice to George Hughes, If for no
other reason, the club owners should get
! together and hire a manager now. II
probably will play elsewhere than in
Wichita, as the manager must fill posi-
/ ton on the team here as well as see tn It
his men win every game they play. The
majority of the fans seem to favor
Hughes.
There are at least two trades under con-
infielders if Hughes remains. 1t will be
/ either George Westerzn or Tommy Nice
that will be disposed of. Both are good
men at third, but Nee has it on Wester-
zil as utility man. Jack Holland at st.
Joseph, who Is in Oklahoma making ar
rangenents for spring training quarters,
will stop in Wichita on his return home
to offer proposition relative to returning
Westerzil to the Drummer pay roll, where
he finished last season.
Club in Need of Funds.
A new right-hand pitcher, reputed to
be in western League class has been
signed as a Jobber. His name is Carroll
Lunsford. He was with Vicksburg last
season As to the outfield, the gaps to ILL
that concern Hughes most are the knot
holes in left field fence. There is some
talk of a plan to increase depleted funds
by the sale of a certain outfielder who
would bring good piece Of money and he
is a good outfielder, too. Because the
present management is compelled to re-
sort to such tactics, even when those of
the fans and club members that have
business ability and, see about as
far as the ends of their noses, were SO
liberal as to bust a perfectly good dollar
every six weeks just to make sure that
there was plenty of cash on hand; great
howl about ''mercenary'' methods Is going
up. Can you beat it?
Wichita is sure of one good battery,
anyhow. Rope Perry, who lives in Wich-
tia, and is anything but improvident, has
contracted for himself to pitch and will
be coached by Rope, jr., Vern Clemens
fills the other end of the battery. He felr
that it wouldn't be a bad idea to run
down to Wichita to see friends and inc:-
dentally sign up for next season. Secre-
tarv Mcmillan ventures that he might
have come to sign up for life with a GER
tain good-looking, daTk-eyed girl; but
Glen denied it emphatically.
Russell Routt Takes Bride.
Russell Routt doesn't look upon matri-
mony seriously as some ball players.
He proved it by marrying pretty Omaha
lass, recently.
Fred Clarke of the Pirates and Winfield,
Kan, has shown his regard for Wichita
friends by booking games with Secretary
April and 6. The Jobbers will be more
evenly matched in the first game of their
spring exhibition series when Charley
Carr brings his Blues from Kansas Cry
to prove that they can do better, perhaps.
than Minneapolis did in Denver last fan.
Then the Old Romans warriors, who
wear White Sox will battle again thus
year, so that Wichita sure is well pro-
vided for as to preseason attractions.
