PARAMOUNT HEAVY
WheatshOckers Have the Big
gest Eleven in Kansas.
IchabOds, However, Are Conf.
dent of Victory Tomorrow.

With final Preparations completed
for the game with Paramount tomor-
row afternoon and with all of his men
in good condition and determined to
get back in the win column, Coach
Kennedy today declined to give out
his probable lineup, stating that he
was not certain what men he would
start and that ne probably would not
know until just before game time.
The clash with the Wheatshockers
will begin at ,. so and if the weather
continues to moderate a good crowd
is expected. College authorities deny
the statement that has been made to
the effect that the enthusiasm of the
players and students has been under
q damper since the K L. defeat and
they assert that the denial will be sub
stantiated tomorrow aftern on.
Invaders Prepared.
Coach Hoover and his Paramount
players are expected to arrive in To-
peka early tomorrow morning. Every
report coming from their camp indi-
Gates that they are cooked and primed
and heavily loaded for the Ichabods
that they expect TO make their
best showing of the season here to-
morrow.
There are 10 old rivalries between
the two teams because they have not
met in several years. but Just the same
there viii be lots of fight on both
sides If the dope does not go awry.
1t is believed Coach Kennedy will
start Captain Stewart at quarterback
as he did in the K. L. game. II this
is done it is almost certain that two
second string men will be given places
in the right side of the line unless
Trull IS switched from end to tackle.
Perry is slated for the fullback job
where he is developing into stellar
proportions at a rapid pace
y Kennedy Chalk -aIk
Following Wednesday nights serim-
mage against the freshmen, Doctor
Kennedy had his men meet for the
first real chalk talk of the season and
a throat practice" of the old time
Kennedy brand was staged. Several
other chalk talks probably Will be
held before the Aggie game.
The Ichabods do not seem disheart-
ened by the fact that Paramount has
a heavier team than any they have
yet met and they will be badly disap-
pointed if they do not win by a de-
cisive score. Paramount however, has
about the heaviest eleven in the whole
state. not excepting K. [. and the
Aggies, and there is a possibility that
the ShOckers may shock the surprise

total of $49S, S,763.54 returned by per-
sons whose consciences were uneasy
over frands against the government.
Figures compiled at the treasury
department show the returns were
much larger during the past year
than ever before, chiefly because Of
the unusual contributions, one for

will not bring on war with Mexico.

Mexico only some few million, they

CHICAGO BAKERS
PUT UP BREAD PRICES

Chicago, Sept 22.-An ordinance to
halt the advance in bread prices an
nounced yesterday, was proposed to-
day by Morris Eller, city sealer His
plan is to require bread loaves to be
labelled one pound, or one and a half
pounds, and prohibiting the sale of
loaves weighing three quarters of a
pound. He says this would force bak
ers to make pound loaves instead of
twelve ounce ones and counts on pub
lie sentiment to keep the price down to
six cents.
Following the lead of ene large
baker yesterday in announcing increased
prices other bakeries are today ex-
pected to make similar announcements.
The federal department of justice
will take no notice of the announced
increase it appears the bakers are act.
ing in combination, il was said today.
Bakers here are planning to dodge
the Sherman antitrust law, it is be-
lieved, in raising the price of bread.
One baker announced the increase yes
terday. Others will follow next week
on advice it is said, of corporation law
yers, who explained they would avert
prosecution under the sherman law by
announcing increases at different
times.
