YANKEES GET BROWN
Topeka Outfielder Drafted by N. Y.
American League Club.

Moose Brown, the big Topeka out
fielder, who was sold to the ST. Louis
Cardinals subject to draft and who
was later returned to Topeka, has
been drafted by the New York Ameri-
cans. Bobby" Gilks, Yankee scout
came to Topeka today and signed
Brown to a contract.
Brown delayed going to Oklahoma
in order to meet Gilks here to con-
clude the deal. However, as the sea-
son is almost over, ne will not report
until next spring and will go to Fair
view tonight to fill his Oklahoma en-
gagement there.
When Brown was returned Ivy the
Cardinals ii was understood that the
Chicago White Sox were after him
and had put in q draft, but in some
manner both the Sox and Cardinals
lost out to the progressive Yankees.
Both were anxious to get him, how
ever, and Comiskey wired here from
Chicago to inquire about Brown be-
fore The Western League season
closed.
Owner Savage of the Topeka club
procured Brown from the Nebraska
State league when that circuit dis
banded IN midseason. While he was
in st. Louis Brown played in the Car
dinal lineup one day and made a good
showing. both in the field and at the

FRESHIES VS.. SOPHS
Annual Sack Scrap at Washburn
Staged This Afternoon.

At three o'clock this afternoon, the
Washburn freshmen ard sophomores
met on the football field to settle once
and for all the rest of the year the
question of supremacy. Annually
this little matter comes up for settle
ment. And the question is decided
through the agency of a gentle little
sack scrap.
The sack scrap embOdies the prin-
cipal features of a football game, a
prize fight and a long distance race.
1t was substituted for the cane rush
several years ago, being a much mild
or form of entertainment than the lat
ter. 1t was found that the weight of
canes could not be regulated so the
game was eliminated.
Shortly before 3 o'clock members of
both the freshman and sophomore
teams lined up on opposite sides of the
field. Ten sacks were placed in the
center, and at o'clock the contest
began.

pose the project is regarded by the
commissioners as small. Another rea-
son why the matter of final action was
postponed is that the commissioners
wish to receive advice from the coun-
ty attorneys office as to proper pro-
cedure in providing for the paving.
A petition bearing signatures of 81
per cent of the land owners affected
was presented TO the commissioners to-
day. The land owners represented on
the petition have been working for the
paving for several months.
Fred Nipps, chairman of the COM
missioners, stated today that there was
but little doubt in his mind that the
petition would carry. The cost of the
paving, which will be asphaltic
maca dam, has been estimated by
those interested, at approximately
$780, However, no official esti-
mate has been made.

SPOTS Gets so DAYS
Stepmother Tries to Get Him Free
But Fails.

The fact that the complaining wit
ness in the case showed signs of weak
ening on the prosecution, did not get
Rem Spotts of single-tree fame out of
trouble when his case come up Tor
hearing in the court of Topeka TO-DAY.
However, the charge against SPOTS
was amended from assault with IN
tent to kill to assault and battery.
SPOTS stepmorher. Clara SPOTS,
was the complainant in the case. Ac-
cording to evidence furnished the
county attorney young SPOTS got ms
hands on a single-tree during
family argument and came near
using it on his stepmother. Judge
Hugh Fisher sentenced SPOTS to 60
days in Jail to be paroled after ten
days.
Thursday the father of the boy ap-
peared in the county attorneys office
with a message that Mrs. SPOTS did
not want the boy sent to jail and
wanted the charge dismissed. AL
though her attitude probably had
much bearing on the case this morn
ing in the court of Topeka it did rot
free her StepSOn.
