turned down by Captain Ketcham,
who is quoted as saying:
Football isn't played for the bene-
fit of the newspapers. but for the uni
versities."
The Yale captain probably has
made a great hit-with himself. But
for the newspaper publicity given
football, or any other sport on earth,
its popularity mighty soon would be-
gin to dwindle. The Ketcham conceit

Will Kennedy, the old time favorite
Washburn mentor, and the man who
made football famous in X. u, go
back to the university?
They seem to think SO in the Ne
braska football camp. At least here is
what Lincoln paper says:
1.-THE life of the Mosse-Frank coach
ing regime at Kansas Is at stake in
Saturdays gridiron battle between the
Jayhawk and Missouri Tiger in Col
umbia Kansas doesn't mind being
whipped by Nebraska-the Jayhawker
students and athletic authorities rath-
er expect it-but whenever the Tiger
pulls the feathers out of the Jayhawk's
tail, then someone must stand up and
answer. About the very first thing
visitor in Lawrence hears is a tale of
quarrels and chickering's between Mosse
and Frank. and the stories appear to
be founded on fact. Mosse demanded
Franks decapitation last winter, but
faculty men interfered d Moses, al
though head coach, was compelled to
keep as his assistant a man whom he
cordially disliked. Under the circum
stances, it is small wonder that Kan
sas has not been stirring up much Of
a furore in Missouri valley football cir
cles The situation appears to be ripe
for the return of Bert Kennedy. now
coach at Haskell Indian institute. to
the Jayhawker Institution. Kennedy
was in, charge Of the Jayhawks for sew
eral seasons, being shut out three years
ago when the Missouri valley regents
passed the all-year coach rule. Ken
aedy is said to be willing to give up
his dental business to take the coach
ng position. but he demands so much
more authority than has been extended
70 Mosse and Frank that the Kansas
faculty men insist upon thinking it
over. Meantime, sentiment within the
Kansas student body is reputed to be
in favor of Kennedy, and
hat makes it at least an even bet that
he switch to Kennedy will be made"
Here is the way the telegram read
hat Coach Lowman, of the Aggies,
sent home after the Texas game:
Texas 46, Aggies o. Game played in

quarter. Men couldn't get their wind.
