LONGEVITY PAY IS IN
THE DISTRICT BUDGET

/ Much to the relief of every teacher
| in the public schools the District ap-
propriation bill carries $425,000 for
longevity pay, and does not include
proposed legislation to destroy the
| longevity pay system. A rumor to the
effect that an attempt to repeal the
longevity pay law has been current in
! the public schools for several days,
ever since President Blair of the board
of education, and Supt Thurston ap-
| peared before the subcommittee and
answered several sharp questions by
Representatives Page and Davis con-
corning longevity pay.
The truth is that Representative
Page, chairman of the subcommittee, is
unfavorahle to longevity pay, and if
the time were ripe would endeavor to
! propose legislation resembling the
| system. In speaking of the matter to-
| day he said:
Opposed to the System.
IT am opposed to the longevity pay
system because it is not a merit sys-
TEN. All teacher has to do is to hang
on and get an increase. In reality,
there may be teachers who enter the
system at the basic salary bf $500 who
ought to be jumped to s1.2t0 in year
or two on sheer merit, but under the
present longevity pay system she has
to await her turn and get her increase
merely fo- length of service.
ION the other hand, teachers in many
Instances are getting Increases who
DO not deserve them. l have heard the
rumor that the District hill contains a
clause to rescind the longevity pay
law. but it does not. l only wish it
did

Outside Conduit Facilities.

Recently when the plaza was repaved
conduit was run from the Capitol
under the ground to a point in the
center. of the plaza. where an outlet
box has been placed in the street This
year it will merely be necessary to run
wires from this box to the tree.
Chairman Chris J. Gocke1er of the
committee on site called on Superin-
tendent Woods of the Capitol today to
obtain the necessary permission to
erect the community tree on the plaza.
This will be obtained by MI. Woods
from the presiding officers of the House
and Senate. both OF whom are said to
be heartily in favor of the community
Christmas festival idea.

Coach Kennedy attempted to ex-

" SO, Of the fine record of the Has
ke1l football team OF 1913. A total
score of 41s to 81 is one that Will
not soon be duplicated. In fact. it
stands alone in the history of the sea-
son just closed. With the list OF
splendid opponents. and its story Of
grand achievement the record speaks
for itself. From the north, the south.
the east and here in our own state
the pick of the great educational in
stitutions were met. and with a single
exception defeated. And who will say
our Nebraska game was not victory,
although we lost the actual contest by
q single point, yet in many respects 1t
was our grandest triumph.
THE final test Of q football team
should not be how many games are
won and lost, but rather. is the team
representative Of the school, and does
1t reflect the real inner life Of the
institution? We all know that in Has
kell we have one of the most efficient
Indian schools in the land. Also. we
that are on the ground. know that our
teams are representative Of the school;
that our boys are here for the primary
reason of acquiring an education. and
are doing their part in the class room
and in the shop. And we also feel
that If the football eleven would be
truly representative of the school It
must be efficient.
personally, I feel that in athletic
competition the Indian boy has a
great opportunity to come IN contact
with the white race in q way that
will rebound to the credit OF both. In
my three years as coach Of the Has
kell team I have seen many instances
tlemanly conduct have been put to q
severe test. and I want to say that
practically without exception tho IN

than his white brother. Along this
lime 1 would also like to say that the
southern teams put it all over US
northerners In courtesy to visiting
teams, and in general all around
sportsmanship.

The Notre Dame game has been
changed from November II to October
81. This was done to accommodate
Carlisle which will play the same
team November II and also because
the early date suited Haskell better.
But Haskell has the place on their
schedule. In fact the Haskell contest
will be Notre Danes big home game,
and playing as they do within two
weeks Of Carlisle and within one week
Of West Point. November z, the Indians
will have q splendid chance to be COM
pared with those big teams. Kennedy
braves are particularly anxious to
make a better showing than Carlisle.
Haskell and Carlisle are the Harvard
and Yale of the Indian schools and UNI
dOubtedly should meet in football. And
all that Haskell needs to do is to show
them that they have a good team and
can draw big crowds and then they will
get a game. Coach Kennedy believes
another year will land q Carlisle date.
The Haskell schedule will be K. C.
Vets, October s: Kansas Normals. Oc-
tober 10; Creighton university, October
II; Texas A. and M. at Texas state fair,
Dallas, October "a; Notre Dame at
South Bend, Ind, October 81; Univer-
sity of Texas at Houston, November Z:
November II Michigan Aggies or Uni
versity Of South Dakota at Kansas City
Or Lawrence; University of Arkansas
at Kansas City November Fl; Oklahoma
at Kansas City Thanksgiving day.
There Is no definite contract with
Owens but Kennedy's latest informa-
ton leads him to believe he will get
this date beyond a doubt. Haskell has
a proposition from Christian Brothers
college for a game in st. Louis with a
huge guarantee but is holding off for
Oklahoma.

ST. JOE TEAM STRONG.
win Report March 20 and Train q
HOme-160 Games,


H0me-168 Games.
The Drummers will be asked to re-
port in st. Joseph for the spring train
ing about March 20. So said John
Holland yesterday in discussing the
the coming season. All training will
be done in st. Joseph, the Minneapolis
club furnishing training games while
here.
The club, according to the Drummer
boss, looks mighty good. Two great
infielders, whose names are being con-
cealed at present, are being negoti-
strengthen the team. Outfielders will
be one of the strong points. Holland
thinks, and the pitching staff-that's
one thing the local magnato believes
he has hog tied.
Sterzer and Macdonald, according
to Holland. will prove to be one of
the strongest winning combinations
ever seen in the Western League.
Sterzer showed signs last year Of be-
says he will improve next year. Mac
Donald was one of the best in the
South Michigan league and 1t is be-
lieved will be q winner here. He was
q team mate Of Niehaus, who was
drafted by the st. Louis Browns, and
Macdonald n said to be his superior.
Holland said that the 1853 game
schedule is almost sure to go through.
He pointed to the stir now being caus-
ed by the Federal League and said the
time appeared to be ripe for an effort
to build up the fences of the Western.
A long schedule will be his hobby al
the schedule meeting. in spite of the
fact that he was against 1t at the
, close of the last season.

less than one-half of them can be ac-
cepted. He has almost completed the
schedule for 1914.
1t is probable that the Haskell
team will meet Benny Owens team OF
Oklahoma SoOners in Kansas City
Thanksgiving. The Kansas City peo-
pie and Owens. aided by Haskell uni
versity. are trying to arrange this con-
test and it is probable that Bonnie
Owens and the athletic board Of Ok
lahoma university will favor the
proposition. At least. there will be no
conference rules to interfere.
Coach Kennedy is highly pleased
with the performance Of the Haskell
team during the 1913 season. The
Indians made a total score of 40 and
allowed but 81 points to be scored
against them. This is a record for the
institution.
The annual banquet for the team
was held recently and Eli Slower, the
big center, was elected captain Of the
1914 team. Slower was elected in a
three-cornered contest. John McGil-
lis and Henry Flood were the others
