IN. Y. SKATE CRAZY
Dance Halls Deserted; Ice

BY FRANK G. MENKE.

New York, Nov. 1.-Gothamites
now are enthusiastically engaged in

no, we don't mean that kind. Ice

York once again is in, what classical
writer's would term, the throes OF
skating madness
And many of those who have be-
come afflicted with "skatitisH are the
ones who just recently recovered from
a long and serious attack of dancing.
New Workers have found a new
pleasure, a new thrill provoker, and
they are going to it with considerable

on a skate-get on two skates, if you
want I don't care.
And the invitation was accepted
with a hurrah that surprised even
Cornelius. More than 10000 persons
have gone ice skating in less than
thirty days, and the crowds are so
large that every so often Cornelius

closely and see that all are keeping up

was to try to keep some of the mem :

team and for ourselves to keep up in

eligible to play the next fall.

Too Much Coaching.
BY CHARLES E. BRICKLEY.

Personally, 1 think that nowadays
there is too much cos.ching both in
nigh school and college, especially il
college. 1t would seem a more ideal
way if the men could go out for foot
ball and simply have the captain pick
the eleven best men and substitutes
and play a rival team under the same
conditions. AS it is now the colleges
have large coaching staffs of ten or
more men. regular scouting systems
all the year round, and instructions
and specifications to the nth" de-
gree. 1t is really as much 4 battle Of
coaches as it is of players. but. as one
famous coach said, Who is going to
take the initiative in doing away with
all this?" Each college wants to win

The Last Workout TOnight-A
Is s'Skull'' Practice Tomorrow.
Total points. .17S

The above record of the Washburn-
Emporia Normal clashes since 1904
would indicate that the Ichabods were
completely out of the class of the State
Teachers, and so they were in years
past, but at the bottom of the table
will be found the figures which plainly
tell the tale of why the blue and white
dopesters are not burdened with over
confidence this year. Since 1903 the
Normals have been coming to the
front while the Ichabods were sliding
back and no longer are the games
with the pedagogues looked upon
lightly.
In 1910 the Emporians broke thru
with a IA to IL victory and they have
been holding their own ever since
One of :he hardest fought games in
the history of the annual meetings,
and one that some of the present
members of the team remember, was
that of 1914 when the Ichabcds went
down to defeat 10 to 0. Captain Sam
Stewart has a vivid recollection of
this game, and he is fearing that its
results will be repeated again this
year.
Close Last Year.
Last season the game was played
in Topeka. The Norma1s got an early
lead and held it until the last quar-
ter when Elmer iBearg finally went

later on in the season defeated WASH

admits that team that could hold the
Aggies and Jayhawkers to two touch
downs early in the season must have
more strength than his organization.
In fact. Doctor Kennedy places so
much reliability in the dope furnished
by the K. Informal and Aggie-Nor-

can lick the Normals they ought to
come thru with victory when they
