AGG|ES were SORE.
Manhattan Players Claim Hargiss
Disced Field to Slow Them Up.

The Kansas Aggie football team
was in Topeka Saturday evening sore
from their defeat at the hands of the
Normal 3 to 0, and sore from wad-
ing through a swimming mudhole dur
ing the afternoons game. The Aggies
are very light and have been depend
ing upon footwork and the forward
flip to gain for them.
Knowing this, the players said, the
Normal mentor caused the field to be
double disced. realizing that it would
not affect his beefy team who did not
rely on speed for their gains. To cap
it off an inch of rain fell, making the
field a quagmire. The Aggies stood up
well on the defensive, holding the
Teachers scoreless for two quarters
but could make absolutely no head
way on the offense as the condition of
the soil paralyzed their offense.
The score does not indicate the
standing of the teams" said Captain
Skinner of the Aggies. Provided we
get a decent field against K. u. We'll
show a reversal in form next Satur-
day" Whether Anearn field will be in
condition or not is a question, as the
Farmer team has been practicing in
the city park for the past two weeks.

ACCIDENT NOT SERIOUS
Buried Man is Excavated by Other
Employees of company-ls
None the Worse for
Incident.

Trenches along the battle front in
Europe have little, If anything on
those around here, il you will believe
William Shley. an employee of the
cereal works, who speaks from a
close acquaintance with the domestic
common, or garden variety.
Shley, employed at the cereal works
in the excavation Of seven foot
ditch for a pipe line, was caught In a
cavein shortly before GOO o'clock Fri
day evening, and with the exception
OF part of his cap, was completely
buried. Quick work by fellow en-
ployes prevented a serious result from
the incident.
Shley was caught when the sides OF
the trench caved in on him. One leg
was in such a position that he was un
able to move and therefore could do
nothing to help excavate himself from
the dirt when it fell in on him.
It required nearly a half an hours
work on the part of employees to get
Smiley out Of the trench. 1t took but
a few seconds to get the dirt away
from his face and head so that he
was able to watch the other men dig
him out without experiencing any
particular discomfort.
The incident might have been
serious one had the character of the
soil been very sandy, according to
employees who were present at the
time. On account OF the depth of tina
ditch and the fact that Shley was
stopped over and working on his
knees, it would have required much
longer to dig him out if the soil had
been of sandy character.
