EXEMPT BALL PLAYERS
Big Leagues Would Relieve 2Ss Men
From War Service.

Chicago. Nov. 22.-Ban johnson,
president of the American league, will
ask the war department to grant ex-
emption from military service to
eighteen men on each of the sixteen
major league clubs, in order that base
ball may continue during the war.
johnson said that while almost 80
per cent of the major league players
are eligible to the draft, so far as age
is concerned. a great majority of them
will come under class five in the new
classification, because of dependents
or physical defects. So a request that
eighteen men on each club be exempt
ed will not be asking much of the war
department, Ban thinks.
1.-The government wants the big
leagues to open in 1918 and therefore
am confident it will agree to some
sort of compromise that will permit
the sport" said johnson.

Gloom in great gobs walked hand

team to Emporia today where the
Ichabods play the College of Emporia-
Dreams of a high place in inter-col-
1egiate football have been put to

Washburn has been beaten by St

Baker held the Ichabods to an to 0
score. The College of Emporia has
defeated Cooper, Paramount and

in the team as it left for Emporia
today. And only a few years ago
Emporia was considered only a prac-
tice game for the mighty Ichabods.
The game with the Kansas Aggies
in Topeka Thanksgiving day, will end

, Members of the Shawnee County
Old Settlers association will boost the
food conservation plan by waving
their banquet plans for this year.
When the old timers meet in Topeka
December 5, they will eat modest,
humble groceries. There will be no
attempt to consume Shawnee county
farm production at one sitting.
In former years the pioneers have
staged a dinner that simply took the
breath from the average town man
who is accustomed to an introduction
to a quarters worth of this and a
dimes worth of that. The old settlers
ate until they were in positive agony,
lined up in the warm corner of a
church and snapped stories until time

unrestrained flow of conversation and
oratory. But the food will be saved

up the track about two blocks, hid the

Good Outlook for Pet Animal and

Pet stock raisers will hold their an
nual convention in Topeka December
1915. The convention plan affects
members of the Breeders and Fan
cicrs association. All pets from
guinea pigs to squirrels and jackrab-
bits will be eligible to a place on the
show card.
Original plans called for a CONSOLE
dated convention of pet fanciers and
poultry growers. But the breeders
association commended chickens were
not pets and that there was not suf-
ficient room for the two shows under
one tent. AS n result the poultry men
will display their leghorns and ban
tam hens week later. Officers of
the organization are: A. E. Chap
man, president; c. V. Reed, vice
president; ]. A. Sieben, treasurer, and
Charles Mahon, secretary. Nearly 500
entries are assured for the pet animal
and stock display.
