Lawrence is going to be one of the
most thickly populated towns in the
state Thursday, November 80, when

the railroad dope available spells any
thing.
The Santa Fe is going to run four
special trains from Kansas City to
Lawrence in addition to extra cars on
all the regular trains. The Santa Fe
will also run a special train from To-
peka, leaving here at l o'clock in the
afternoon, and starting back from
Lawrence at $50 o'clock. None of the
specials will make any stops between
their starting points and their destina-
lions.
Also, there will be two special cars
of business men from Kirksville, Mo-,
who will go to Lawrence for the game,
and the Wabash has notified the Santa
Fe that three special trains, on which
they expect to carry 1900 Missouri
university students, will go from Col

of all gridiron stars since then-an
achievement that many rank foremost
for all time.
Heston'S ''Rush' Record.
If all of Heston's gains were added
together and divided by 10 yards
the touchdown distance in his day
they would show that 'Heston gained
enough ground alone to score 500
touchdowns-and more. An instance
of his ground-gaining power is shown
in the recital of his work against Chi
cago in 1908. The entire Wolverine
squad gained $50 yards by rushing
and CT this HeSton alone gained 2S7
yards!
The Wolverine star never placed his
own interests above those of his team.
He ever was willing to sacrifice indi-
vidual glory for that of his mates
and his team. Often during his amaz-
ing career, when he had earned the
right to carry over the ball for a
touchdown, he surrendered it to one
of his mates.

since the start of the conflict there
mas been no effort to test the ability
or either side to withstand an inex-
haustible trench bombardment under
the conditions of semi-numbness
which winter enforces upon the com
batants. Hitherto, trench fighting
has slackened largely into a winter
draw, with the factories in the allied
countries turning out munitions Tor

come which will show whether winter

activity. is the better trench ally for
defensive or offensive operations.

cause their lines of overland com

THURSDAY GAMES
Six Conference Teams Will
Meet Each Other Tomorrow.
Dope Gives C. of E. a Good
Chance Against Washburn.

Tomorrow will be the biggest Thurs
day of the season so far IN Kansas
conference football circles and six
teams will get into action against each
other with the Washburn-C. of i.
battle in Topeka standing cut above
the others in interest because of the
fact that the Presbyterians are con-
coded a good chance to get into the
win column as a result of the crippled
condition of the Ichabods.
Last season Washburn defeated the
Emporians by the score of 6 to 9, and
dope up to last week indicated that
they would pull a repeater without
trouble, but now the prospects have
changed and most of the dope is in
favor of the invaders. Coach Sanders
men have won only two games this
season, but one of them was from
Paramount by the score of . to 7, and
the only argument Washburn support
ers can use to offset this is that Fair
mount was much stronger foe when
she humbled Captain Stewards men
last Friday than when she lost to c..

New IchabOd Lineup.
Aside from the statistical dope the
Ichabods will be handicapped by hav-
ing Stewart and Sargent out of the
game and will be playing with a
muchly changed lineup and with Il
man playing quarterback for his first
time in several years. Champeny has
shown well in his running of the team
in practice this week, out even if lie
should develop into a sensational
quarterback it is not TO be expected
that he will do so in less than a weeks
time.

Hopes of Victory Tomorrow.

Emporia, Kan, Nov. 22.-Believing
that all dissension and lack of har-
mony has been removed from the
ranks of the players, the College of
Emporia authorities are bodybuilding
high hopes of victory when they meet
Washburn college at Topeka Thurs
day afternoon.
Coach Sanders is quoted as saying
his team is in better shape and more
of a unit than it has been since the
opening of the season and that he will
be greatly disappointed if a good
showing is not made against the Icha-
bods Most of the men on the team
are free from injuries and Captain
Hughes is the only regular player who
is liable to be out of the lineup.

MOULD IS BROKEN
They Don't Make Backs Like
HestOn Amy More.
No Opposing Line Ever Was
Able to Hold Him.
BY FRANK G. MENKE.

New York, Nov 22.-Time can not
dim the glory that is Willie Heston's;
the onrushing years can not efface the
memories of the greatest halfback that
America has produced.
A decade and more has passed since
the great Wolverine halfback hung up
his uniform for the last time. Yet his
deeds are as fresh in the minds of
football lovers as they were in the
era when he was tearing lines to rib
bons with his powerful, bull-like
rushes And the tales of Heston's tri-
umphs will thunder down thru the
Wales of history to each and re-echo
for the next generatiOn-and the next
and the next.
Heston was the irresistible force
the human juggernaut. He hurled his
compact, marvellous body into the
most powerful human walls that ever
were produced-and split them asun-
der. Every team that played Michi-
gan during the regime of Heston had
orders. to "Get Heston." And none
succeeded. Four men, six men, eight
men, oftentimes threw themselves into
the pathway of the charging VOL
VERNE. And he crashed into-and thru
those defenses as a bowling ball tips
thru the ten pins.
EckersaI stopped Heston.
Only one man-Walter Eckersall, of
Chicago-ever was able to stop Hes
ton temporarily. He accomplished it
with trick but Heston quickly
! thwarted it. "Ecky,' like the other
Michigan foes, first tried to halt the
Heston rushes by tackling him as he
came at him. And, of course, he
failed.
Don't try that any more" was
| Coach Alonzo Stages orders to Ecker
sail. Hereafter, tackle Heston from
behind. Let him get past you, il
necessary. Then, because you are
faster you can catch up with him. And
throw yourself at the back of his legs
Heston was dumped by EckersaI
several times by that method. Field
ing Yost and Heston quickly got to-
gether and mapped out a plan where
by the fleetest of the Michigan play
ers was to do nothing else but box
/ Eckersan every time a Michigan play
was made. And from then on, wher
| Eckersal1 tried to tackle Heston from
| behind he found himself blocked.
/ Heston, during his four years as q
Michigander, scored SO touchdowns
for a total of 465 points. It is a rec
ord that has withstood the onslaught

CITY IS SELLING COAL
Dealers Will Have to Cut Price to
Meet Municipal Sale.

Terre Haute. Ind, Nov. 22.-Mayor
Gossom's municipal coal mine did an
unprecedented business today. Three
thousand orders, practically all of
them calling for the limit of two and
onehalf tons each, were received the
first day of business and hundreds of
others started pouring in early today.
Coal was still selling at $2.75 a ton
at the municipal market and the
mayor said that it would remain at
that figure. The dealers price re-
manned at Sc for the same grade of
coal, but they admitted that they
would have to start cutting the figure
if they wanted TO do any business.

changes that have been made in

A basement in connection with a

than a cellar in larger house. Bunga-

the end projects from the surrounding
brick. This breaks up the otherwise
plain surface In pleasing way.
The many windows OF several differ
ent sizes, with their white frames,
form an effective contrast with the
darker shingles and roof. Easement
windows are provided in the living
room, dining room and kitchen.
The living room and the dining
room are particularly good features OF
the room arrangement in this plan.
The living room is entered from the
porch and extends along the front OF
the house. with big fireplace located
in the end. It's general shape and ar
rangement is specially well suited to a
house Of the bungalow type. 1t is
quite a little longer than 1t is wide
and the fireplace In the end makes 1t
seem even longer than 1t Is.
The dining room Is connected to the
living room by a wide cased opening
and a colonnade. AS these two rooms
blend in together, the woodwork and
general plan of the rooms should be
designed to match SO as to form a
harmonious combination. The design
OF the built-in furniture, such as the
buffet and the bookcases on each side
of the fireplace, should be planned in
advance and style selected that will
be suitable to both the rooms.
The lighting in these rooms will
make them the envy of everyone.
Four windows open out from the din
ing room, and a nice decorative effect
is obtained by the window box. The
two outer windows Of these four are
easements. In the living room wide
each side opens onto the front porch.
Smaller windows are also placed over
each Of the bookcases fianking the
fireplace.
The kitchen Is placed directly be-
hind the dining room and is arranged
so as to be as useful and convenient
as possible. The design of this part
of the house has received as much at
tention as any of the other parts. 1t
is unusually well lighted, which will
be appreciated by anyone who has
ever worked in a dark kitchen. The
stairs to the basement are in this
room.
