ENGLISH breaches

The union meeting Sunday even
ing, a thing which is becoming q
custom with Berea people, was very
successful and great interest was
shown. Rev. L. b. English delivered
a powerful and straightforward
sermon on Excuses" taking up in
order the excuses given most often
by people for not becoming Chris
tians. With clear and invincible
logic he proved that all such ex.
cuses were futile and must fail in
the time of testing. Everything
points to Christ and there is nO
reasoning for not accepting Him
His sermon was simple and present
ed the true Gospel in clear and
lucid manner. These sunday even
ing services mean much TO Berea;
they tell Of the unity of Christian
people here, the value of which can
not be estimated. Give them your
support. Come out and hear the
straight Gospel presented in clean,
clear-cut manner.

of her work and for her class, tho
Junior, she was an untiring worker.
BY the beauty of her life aud charac-
ter here she has won an enviable
place in the hearts of all who knew

go as missionaries, thus increasing

eign field. Great things are TO be
expected from the efforts of such a
consecrated couple and The Citizen
can only join their many friends in
wishing them the largest success.

SURPRISE TO N. Y.
Even Gotham Didn't Know the
Braves Were on Market.
HaughtOn Has Had a Remark
able Football Career.

New York, Jan. 10.-The sale of the
Boston National league club by
Messrs. Gaffney and Davis to group
of Boston bankers came as great
surprise to local baseball magnates
and followers of the game. In the
present disturbed condition of the ma
tional game the sale or prospective
sale of several National and American
league clubs has been reported and
discussed from many angles. but the
toned in this connection.
1t was said here, however, that the
decision of Gaffney and Davis to re-
tire from baseball was not due to any
loss of interest in baseball, but rather
to the fact that the time and money
necessary for a successful operation of
the club seriously interfered with their
other business interests.
Haughton President.
Percy D. Haughton, who, it is I'M
derstood, will act as president of the
club under the new regime, is more
than a baseball man, although he
played on the varsity nine while an
undergraduate at Harvard in the late
sos and captained the Crimson team
of 1899.
OF late years Haughton has divided
his attention between the coaching of
Harvard football teams and the BoS-
ton stock exchange. His success, year
in and year out, with the Crimson
elevens has made him one of the most
famous American football coaches.
Since he took charge in 1908 the Cam
bridge elevens under his tuition have
played seventy-three games in eight
years of which sixty-four have been
won, four lost and five tied. During
this period Harvard has scored 1,242
points against its opponents 172.
1t was Haughton who took charge
of the Harvard football destiny and,
building along the lines laid out by
Coach Bill Reid, lifted the Crimson
team from the slough of despond and
gave the Cambridge eleven a success
sion of victories over Yale, its greatest
gridiron rival.
He HumbIed Yale.
Since 1908 Harvard has won five of
the eight annual games against the
Ellis, two were scoreless ties and one
was a defeat. Within the past two
or three years Harvard, with an es-
tablished system, has been able to run
up large scores against the Blue. Be
ginning in 1912 with a 20 to victory,
Harvard followed a year later with an
other by score of l to 5, won, Sc
to 0, in 1914, and scored Al points to
0 against Yale last season.
In addition to these, victories over
Yale, Harvard, under Haughton's
coaching, has won a majority of the
games against Princeton, defeated
Michigan as well as several of the
stronger southern college elevens and
the leading teams of the east. Haugh-
ton said recently that there was no
mystery or secrets about the success
of the Harvard coaching system. Com
mon sense and business efficiency is
the basis of the system. The offense
and defense of opponents is carefully
studied in advance and a special cam
paign of attack and defense planned
for that particular team. AS a result

SPORTING NEWS ITEMS NOT
FOUND ON THE SPORT PACE

Those who have local sporting
items for the State Journal are re-
quested to see that they reach the
office before 9 o'clock on the day
they are to be published. If this is
not done it is impossible to get
them on the sporting page.
Any article of local sport interest
is always appreciated by the State
Journal which endeavors to give
it's readers the best sporting news
in Kansas And whenever any
thing is received too late for the
sport section, it is always printed
in some other part of the paper.
But a sport item separated from
the rest of the sporting news does
not attract as much attention and
is liable to be overlooked by those
those who would be interested in
it. 1t is, therefore, solely for the
purpose of accommodating the
reader and of giving greater promi-
hence to the news items that the
above request is made. If you
know any sport news, don't forget
that the State Journal is always
glad to publish it, and don't forget
that it is impossible to put it on
the sporting page If it is received
after a. m.

HUsKERs GET STEWART.
Oregon Aggie Coach Will Take
Stiehm's Place at Nebraska.

Lincoln, Neb., Jan. 10.-Dr. E. J.
Stewart, for four years athletic di-
rector and football coach of Oregon
Agricultural college, has been elected
to a similar position with the Univer-
sity of Nebraska, and has announced
his acceptance. His salary will be $3,-
900 a year and his service begins next
September. His contract is for one
year. with a renewal if his services are
satisfactory.
Ewald o. Jumbo" Stiehn, for five
years Nebraska coach, this evening
rendered his resignation, to take ef-
feet Immediately, and it was accepted.
Stiehm's contract with Nebraska did
not terminate until September 1, but
the athletic board decided that his
services could be dispensed with at
this time without mbarrassment to
the department of athletics. Stiehm
is already under contract with the In
diana university, and it was felt his
interests naturally were greater with
that school than with Nebraska.
r. B. Rutherford, captain of the
1915 Nebraska football team, was
elected assistant coach at a salary of
$4,000 a year. and Guy E. Reed was
made assistant director and business
manager of athletics, with a salary of
$4,000. Rutherford and Reed an
nounced their acceptance of the posi-
tiOnS.

WASHBURN'SFIRST
IchabOds Open Basketball Sea-
son Here Tonight.
Kansas Quintets to Have a Busy
Time This Season.

Tonight Washburn's basketball team
will begin the season by attempting to
out toss the Terrible Swedes from
Lindsborg. While the Ichabods have
a number of men who should develop
into good material, they are practically
all novices at the intercollegiate game,
and. up to now, il has been impossible
to tell Just what their chances would
be against their conference opponents
However. most Of their followers will
be out to see them in action tonight
and probably will be free with their
predictions after the game.
Washburns next opponent after
Bethany will be K. u, and If the
Iehabods win tonight. the dope will
give them at least a chance to win, as
the Jayhawkers failed to show any
thing remarkable in their first two
games against Ames. However, the
Jayhawkers will probably fight hard
as Coach Hamilton is anxious to get
them going their best before they go
to Lincoln the latter part of the week
to battle with their old Nebraska
rivals.
Bethany on Tour.
From Topeka the Lindsborg team
will go to Baldwin to play Baker uni
versity Tuesday night and on Wednes-
dav night the Swedes will play Has
kell at Lawrence. The Indians made
a poor showing against Bill" Hargiss'
Normals last week when they were
defeated 40 to IT, but their coach ex-
poets them to show a reversal of form,
and their game with Bethany will be
of interest, because by figuring from
this and the Haskell-Normal game and
the Bethany-Baker game it will be
possible to dope the comparative
strength of the Baker-Normal teams,
which at the present time seem to be
the favorites in the Kansas conference
race.
The Kansas Aggies also will get
under way this week, opening their
season tonight with Kansas Wesleyan,
of Salina, as their opponent. 1t IS
said that the Aggie basketeers have
been making the best showing in prac-
tice that they have made in years, and
the supporters of the purple and white
will be bitterly disappointed if they
DO not win from the Wesleyanites by
a decisive score. The Aggies have
been practicing since December 81,
the men having returned early for
work and good material is said to be
plentiful.
Games of the Week.
Among the more important games
in which Kansas teams Will partici-
pate this week are: Washburn against
Bethany in Topeka, tonight; Wash
burn against K. u, tomorrow night;
Washburn against the Aggies, Friday
night; Bethany against Baker, Tues
day night; Bethany against Haskell,
Wednesday; Bethany against Normals,
Thursday; the AggieS against Wesley
an. tonight; K. L. against Nebraska,
Friday and Saturday. and Paramount
against Cooper, Friday.

CHANGE NAME OF BLUES.
Tebeau Thinks Indigo Title a HoOdoo
to His Ball Club.

Kansas City, Mo, Jan. 10.-The
Kansas City club of the American
association will not be known as the
Blues this season. President George
Tebeau is not exactly superstitious,
but believes the name has been a hoo
doc and will change it before the
schedule opens. The new name will
be picked by the fans, who will be al
lowed to send in their choices and the
name receiving the largest number of
votes will be tackled onto the athletes
Dan Shay will have in charge IN the
1916 pennant scramble.
The decision to change the name of
the club was made yesterday. Presi-
dent Tebeau says no matter how hard
he has tried to get material that
would win a pennant, there have been
but two pennants won in this city by
a team called Blues and each was be-
fore the American association entered
the field. He thinks possibly a new
name will shake the hoodoo.
