Washburn will play only one more
game in Topeka this season-that
with the Aggies November IL. This
| afternoon game was scheduled to be-
gin at 3 o'clock.
Already talk of electing a next year
captain is being started at the Ichabod
| school. Sam Stewart seems to be, con-
| sidered one of the most logical pros
poets.
| 1t is not very likely that ex-Presi-
dent O'Nein will be put to much both
er entertaining the Western League
meeting tomorrow. The opinion seems
to be that it will be a solitaire affair
Joe Stecher's defeat of Baltimore
Americas at Lincoln Thursday night
is said to have been no surprise to
they seem to think Stecher could
throw the kaiser's prize bull.
The coming week football card will
contain some interesting games-and
some important ones, too. OF course,
the local battle of Importance will be
between Washburn and K. U. at Law
renee Saturday.
No one is conceding Washburn an
tory for the Ichabods today and a
defeat for the Jayhawkers at the
hands of Oklahoma, it was conceded,
would narrow the chasm between the
two teams considerably.
A large delegation of Topekans are
making arrangements to go to Law
renee to see this game, and it is prob
able special trains will be run. The
Washburn players will be presented
n 6nir III
game.
The big intersectional game will be
between Cornell and Michigan at Ann
Arbor. With Cornell touted to win
the eastern championship, the VOL
verines would do much to redeem their
seasons record if they should slip
over victory.
In the east the big game of the
coming week will be between Prince
ton and Harvard at Princeton. The
dope on these two teams would indi-
cate PTinceton's chance of winning to
be unusually good.
The Haskell Indians will hit the
hardest bump on their schedule next
Saturday when they play the Univer
sity of Chicago at Chi. Yale will OPP
pose Brown al New Haven Saturday.
Inc COIIllIS week pay IN Kansas
will begin Tuesday when Coach !
O'Rourke's st. Marys eleven attempts
to stop DR.. Weede's whirlwind Coop
critics. Unless the Catholics can stop
them, the Cooper players are likely to
hang up an undefeated record.
Jumbo Stiehms Nebraskans will |
practice on Nebraska Wesleyan Sat
urday in preparation for the K. U. |
game Nov. IS. The Aggie schedule |
for the first week in November calls |
for game with Friends at Manhat- |
tan. The Normals are booked to meet /
Warrensburg, and C. of E. to do bat |
tie with Paramount.
Virginia is something more than |
the mother of presidents" The |
showing made by Virginia university |
this season is one of the best ever
made by one of the numerically |
smaller universities. With less than /
1000 students 70 draw on, Virginia /
against Yale and Harvard, has rolled !
up ten points against nine, Harvard /
contributing the nine and Yale the
rest of it on the shorter side. For a t
university eleven selected from this /
comparatively small roll-ca1l, coached |
by a graduate system of it's own to |
prevent Yale and Harvard from I
crossing its goal line is an achieve /
ment worthy of special mention
which this doesn't claim to be.
