WAS NOT HIS CAR
Dog Walks in, Turns Right Around
and Walks Right Out Again.

A lonesome little dog stood at the
corner of Eighth and Kansas avenues
Tuesday night looking for a home
ward bound conveyance. The jet black
ears of the little creature stood out in
contrast to the woody white body and
the stumpy little white legs were all
aquixer with peculiar kind of dog
emotion.
Late pedestrians noticed the dog
and wondered what it was waiting

again.
The conductor didn't know whether
the dog lived out Douthitt way or not
so ordered the motorman to start the
car. The little dog looked wistfully
after the car but did not move, APP
parently having decided that the next
car was the one wanted.

READY FOR CAME
Santa Eek. L. Soccer Teams
Meet Here Tomorrow.
All Topeka Invited to Round
Football Contest.

All arrangements have been made
for the K. U.-Santa Fe soccer football
game that will be played at Santa Fe
park tomorrow afternoon, beginning
at o'clock.
The K. U. team, composed of 16
men, will arrive in Topeka tomorrow
morning, and the game will start
promptly as advertised. Tom Powell,
promoter of the Santa Fe team, states
that all school children will be adj
mitted free, as will adults, but some
effort will be made to raise enough
money by contribution to pay the rail-
road fare of the visiting players.
The Santa Fe team will be selected
from the following players: DIR. L. C.
Bishop, ]. Goodwin, F. Brownie, d.
Reed, A. Mcbride, D. Clarke, P. Price,
Jock Mcbride, A. Joyce, w. Joyce, G.
Smith, d. Watts, T. Williams, r. Will

E. McPartling.
Jayhawkers Not Strong.
Lawrence, Kan, Nov. 24.-The linup
for the Kansas university soccer team,
which will meet Tom PowelPs Topeka
aggregation Thanksgiving afternoon
in Topeka has been announced by R.
E. Smith, who will have charge of the
Jayhawker eleven.
The players and their positions will
be: H. Jeter, Charles Brown, G. H
Thiele, w. A. German and w. ]. Rice,
forwards; ]. c. Lansing, r. E. Smith
and C. w. Boughton, halfbacks; w. B.
Spaulding and F. Livengood, full
backs; F. 1. Martin, goal keeper; H.
Beal substitute.
With the exception of Smith, none
of the K. L. players have had expert
ence in soccer football before this fall.
For more than two months, however,
a squad averaging twenty men has
been practicing regularly. The players
are members of a gymnasium class
and wanted to try the outside sport
instead of gym work. Coach Smith is
a postgraduate student at the univer-
sity. He learned to play the great
English game while teaching mis-
sion school on the Island of Cypress,
in the Mediterranean.
As the result of their daily practice,
the Kansas players are in good condi-
ton. Against the more experienced
Topeka soccer players, Coach Smith
considers the only chance of his ag-
gregation is that they have better
wind. Following the Turkey day game
at Topeka the K. u. eleven probably
will meet soccer teams located in
Kansas City.

The LAST GAMES
Football Season in Kansas Will
Close Tomorrow.
X. e. and Missouri Stage the
Days Big Battle.

Tomorrow the final curtain will fall
on the Kansas football season of 1915.
While the big game for Kansas-that
of the University of Missouri and the
University of Kansas-wil1 be played
at Columbia, several ancient football
rivalries will be settled Tor another
year on Kansas gridirOnS and lovers of
the sport should be able to find in
these material to appease their foot
ball appetites.
The Emporia Normals, who despite
the tie with Washburn which consti-
tutes the only blemish on their Kan
sas conference record, will meet the
College of EmpOria, in EmpOria'S big
game of the year. While the college
has not had as successful a season as
their opponents, the rivalry between
the two elevens is keen, and the play
ers, as individuals, and the teams, as
units, are expected to throw every
ounce of their physical strength and
football training into the annual con-
test.
Another game which critics promise
will be bitterly fought will be played in
Wichita where Friends and Paramount
will fight the annual battle for foot
ball supremacy. Supporters OF
Friends are pointing to last weeks vic
which, until meeting Friends had gone
through the season without a defeat,
as a basis for their predictions of vic
tory. However, the game is the big
one OF the year 1Or-DOpn INSTITUTIONS
and despite a fairly disastrous season.
Paramount can be counted upon to
play until the last whistle has blown.
An added confidence is given Fair
mount students because of the new
Yale plays their eleven is said to have
been taught.
Cooper, still smarting under the de-
feat at the hands of Friends, will
meet Kansas Wesleyan at Sterling.
Facts and figures would seem to give
tho Cooper eleven a larger promise of
victory. However, in view of last
weeks upset there seems no way of
predicting with any degree of accuracy
how the game will proceed after the
kickoff.
Ottawa and Southwestern will pro-
vide the Winfield enthusiasts with
their Thanksgiving sport, while St.
Marys in its game with Doane at st.
Marys, will attempt to redeem itself
further. Hays Normal will play it's
final game at Hays with Bethany,
while Haskell will journey to Tulsa,
Okla, to meet the strong Henry Ken
dali eleven, which recently nearly de-
feated the strong University of Okla
homa team. The Oklahoma Central
Normal will invade Kansas and play
tie Pittsbug Norma1s at Pittsburg and
the Kansas City University and Mid
land college will clash at Atchison.

ANOTHER WEST POINT
Fort Leavenworth the Place for 1t
Says Maxim.

Kansas City, Mo-, Nov. Effort
Leavenworth should be made into an
other West Point and the Kansas City

Hudson Maxim told the members of
club here today at a luncheon. The
inventor spent Monday at Fort Leay-
enworth, viewing it from the angle of
its availability in a preparedness cam
paign and returned enthusiastic over
it's possibilities.

CUBS ARE AFTER CALVIN.
Chicago Nationals Said To Be Bidding

Chicago. Nov. 24.-Malcomb Gal

bail and baseball star, has been of
3ered a contract with the Chicago Ma
tional League club, it became known
today.
President Thomas of the Chicago
club said that Calvin is expected here
this week to discuss terms. Calvin
is a pitcher as well as fullback and
possesses a delivery that has ap-
pealed to good judges of pitchers.
Calvin withdrew from football aft
er playing in the Wisconsin-Ch Chicago
game because his eligibility was ques-
toned. He was charged with having
played professional baseball during
his college vacation. His home is in

1t is reported that the powers that
be in organized baseball are planning
to prohibit pitchers using rosin, talcum
powder, oatmeal and other strength
giving substances on their offerings
from the box next summer.
Following the taboo of the emery
ball, pitchers devised other schemes to
make their balls act Queerly and take
to unexpected jumps and shoots. The
most effective of these were rosin and
talcum powder. ''Swede" Wideman OF
Topeka and st. Joe, used rosin very eff
fectively.
The plan of the o. B. lawmakers, it
is said, is to formulate rules that will
forbid pitchers putting their hands in
their pockets before making deliveries.
All foreign substances, except saliva,
are to be kept off the balls 1t is fear
ed some pllcner Will accumulate 80
many kinds of shoots that he will
break up the pastime.
1t is generally thought that pitchers
are getting too good, and there are
few fans who will not try to argue you
into believing that the art of pitching
has been greatly improved in the last
few years Yet, it is a matter of rec
ord that not an American league pitch
er twirled a no-hit game in 1915.
All statistics show that the Ameri-
can league was the class of all base
ball circuits in 1915. Yet there have
been few seasons when this or any
other league did not boast at least one
no-hit artist.

for a triumphant send-off of the Uni

would win. Only a small percentage
of students, it was said will go to CO.

Washburn Freshmen Licked Catholic
Ycarlings Tuesday by IA to Score.
BY FORREST l.. RICE.

St Marys, Kan. Nov. 24.-The
freshmen football team of WaShburn
college closed its season here Tuesday
by defeating the st. Marys Freshman
aggregation by a score of IA to 0. The
first year men of WaShburn, coached
by Elmer Bearg, have had very sue
cessful season. They have met a
number of teams from surrounding
towns and the Santa Fe Apprentices
and have not been scored on.
The game Tuesday was one of the
hardest contests played this year. Both
teams were evenly matched. With the
exception of Bailey's touchdown in the
first quarter, which resulted from a
fumbled punt by the st. Mary's quar-
ter, Mulhall, the ground gained by
both teams was on straight football.
The playing was even in the first
burn end, grabbed the opposing quar-
ter's tumble and raced over the line,
Baker kicked goal. In the second
quarter, Baker made a sensational 20
yard run around the Catholic end.
Hope made several 8 and 1O-yard
runs. The young Ichabods failed to
score in this period.
In the third quarter, Perry and
Hope starred for the blue. Babcock
also pulled off a 10-yard end run. On
a st. Marys punt, Hope returned the
ball 35 yards. Perry plunged over the
line in the next play. Baker kicked
goal. making the score at the end of
the third quarter 4 to 0. Both teams
fought hard in the final quarter. CAL
ihan's work at right end featured.
Washburn was penalized frequently
and her penalties tota1ed 60 yards
against the Catholics 25 yards. Wash
burn tried two passes and failed and
St. Marys attempted on unsuccessful
flip.

Even in the midst of the celebra-

toric rival, the university must turn to
face a serious situation. In the spring
of 1913 Haughton signed a three year
contract to coach the football team

tract expired.
"Haughton's success in the univer-

BIG GAME AT EMPORIA.
Normal and c. of E. Meet in Annual
Clash Tomorrow Afternoon.

Emporia, Kan, Nov. 24.-The an
nual football game between the Kan
SaS Normal and the College of En-
poria to be played Thanksgiving day.
is attracting the attention of football
followers in Emporia this week. Both
teams have been working hard in
preparation for the contest and final
scrimmage practice was held Tuesday
night A crowd of 5000 is expected
to witness the battle.
Although the Normals have the ad :
vantage over the light collegians, the
game promises to be hard fought. The
NormaPs chances for victory in the
annual Turkey day game, took n big
slump when Shorty MeairS, the
powerful center, and a likely candi-
date for the All-Kansas, was taken
suddenly ill. Also Tuesday night in
scrimmage Lee Sites, halfback, was
seriously injured. He crashed into
another player and suffered an in
jured skull. Hirschler, another half,
suffered a broken finger and Hen
Erickson, who has played consistent
ball at half all season, is out because
of sickness.
With the team in a crippled condi-
ton, Coach Bill Hargiss remains opti-
mistic about the outcome of the game.
Frazer, a scrub, will probably be used
at center.
The chances at the college are
bright. All the men came out of the
hard Washburn game in good shape
and are in condition for the Normal
game. Brueckner is assisted in the
coaching by several old grads and a
fast scrimmage was held for the last
time Tuesday night. The EmporfaEs
attack centers around the brilliant
end runs of Captain Hainer Hinshaw
and the accurate forward passing of
Crib Altman, the flashy quarter of
