-Four counties so far have re-
qested the state board of health
to make the survey proposed for
early next spring in their respec-
tive districts. The counties ask.
ing for the survey have been
Wabaunsee, Harvey, Mariod and
Pawnee. The board has not
asked for invitations, however,
and does not expect to be influ-
enced by them. The county
picked for the survey will be a
typical agricultural county, as
near as possible, probably one
having a wide diversity of agri-
cultural pursuits.

A reorganization of the Kan.
sas National Guard was made
necessary during the last few
days on account of . recent order
from the war department at
Washington. The reorganizas
ton abolishes the brigade in
Kansas, and leaves the two regi-
ments independent of each. other.
The Washington order declared
two regiments in a state did not
justify a brigade organization. 1t
meant either that this organiza-
ton in Kansas had to be abol-
ished, or the state would lose
about 100000 a year paid by the
federal government for the up
keep and equipment of the Kan
sas militia. Kansas has neither
the funds nor authority to form
another regiment which would
be necessary to retain the brig
ade organization.

GEORGETOWN WORKS
AGAINST PREP NINE
Varsity. Has Little Trouble in
Getting Away With a
1O-to-3 Victory.

Coach Harley Of the Georgetown base
ball team was delighted with the work
accomplished by his men in yesterday s
workout. Despite the wet field, the
coach insisted upon holding a stiff prac-
tice and intends to drive the men during
the next two days In preparation for the
games during the latter part of the week.
Yesterday the team faced Coach Ray
Browns Prep team in a full nine-inning
game. This game was decided upon by
the varsity coach shortly before the prac-
tice. Coach Harley was so much pleased
with the work of the team against the
Props that he has decided to hold these
practice games regularly. The varsity
had little trouble in winning from the
Props by score Of 10 to 8. Coach Har-
ley offered Coach Brown Of the Props a
varsity battery, and Heffernan and Neu-
baur were used by the Props. Heffernan
was hit very hard. but he did not seem
to extend himself very much, seeming
to try only for good control. something
which he has been lacking in during all
the year. Heffernan showed fine control
yesterday, and this fact greatly pleased
Coach Harley. 1t Is practically certain
that he will pitch one of the games
Neubaur's work behind the bat, too, was
worthy of notice In the workout yes
terday he threw with accuracy to the
bases nor one man being able to steal
on him. Coach Harley. has a clever re-
ceiver in young Neubaur and has prom
ised to give him a chance in the next
game.
The Props as whole Were woefully
weak before the pitching Of Lynch, who
was used by the varsity yesterday. This
is the first time that Lynch has done
any pitching since the Yale game. He
had everything in yesterdays game
perfect control, wonderful speed and a
fast breaking curve. In fact, Coach Har-
| ley was delighted over Lynch's showing.
and believes that he will eventually prove
to be the mainstay in the box for the
hilltop team during the remainder of
the year.
A big change was made by Coach Har-
lev i'm his lineup yesterday when he
placed Frank Mulcahy behind the bat
| for the varsity team. Young Mulcahy
abs been playing left field all year. and
has been playing left field all year, and
| of ball. He has fine throwing arm and
| he has had little experience behind the
| bat. Coach Harley seems to be very
much displeased with his catching staff,
as this was shown yesterday when he
placed Mulcahy behind the bat. 1t must
| be said of Mulcahy that he has the max
| ing of a worthy catchtr.

for them to do any casting, and one OF
them got a fishhook so deep in his scalp
that it had to be cut out
The park policeman confessed that he
was sorry the season closed so soon He
enjoyed the fishermen being about the
basin, and says they never gave any
trouble
Sunday hundreds of bass were taken
from the basin. Some fishermen caught
as many as thirty bass. One angler, it lie

the smallest weighing more than three
pounds, and sold them for IS.
A lone fisherman at the basin yesterday
was young woman. She sought a Sc

proceeded to cast her line She landed
one fish before she had been there many
minutes.
